1There was also a lot for the tribe of Causing to Forget (Manasseh); for he was the firstborn of I AM Will Add (Joseph); that is, for Sold (Machir) the firstborn of Causing to Forget (Manasseh), the father of Rocky Region (Gilead): because he was a man of war, therefore he had Rocky Region (Gilead) and Fruitful (Bashan).
2 There was also a lot for the rest of
the children of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) by their families; for the
children of My Father is Help (Abiezer), for the children of Portion (Helek), for
the children of I Shall Be Prince of God (Asriel), for the children of Shoulder
(Shechem), for the children of A Well (Hepher), and for the children of Wise
(Shemida): these were the male children of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) the son
of I AM Will Add (Joseph) by their families.
3 But First-born (Zelophehad), the son of
A Well (Hepher), the son of Rocky Region (Gilead), the son of Sold (Machir),
the son of Causing to Forget (Manasseh), had no sons, but daughters: and these
are the names of his daughters, Disease (Mahlah), Rest (Noah), Partridge
(Hoglah), Queen (Milcah), and Favorable (Tirzah).
4 They came before God Has Helped
(Eleazar) the priest, and before I AM is Salvation (Joshua) the son of Posterity
(Nun), and before the princes, saying, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) commanded Drawn
(Moses) to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore, according to
the commandment of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah), he gave them an inheritance among
the brethren of their father.
5 There were ten portions to Causing to
Forget (Manasseh), beside the land of Rocky Region (Gilead) and Fruitful
(Bashan), which were on the other side of The Descender (Jordan);
6 Because the daughters of Causing to
Forget (Manasseh) had an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of Causing to
Forget's (Manasseh) sons had the land of Rocky Region (Gilead).
7 The border of Causing to Forget
(Manasseh) was from Happy (Asher) to Hiding Place (Michmethah), which lies
before Shoulder (Shechem); and the border went along on the right hand to the
inhabitants of Fountain of the Apple City (Entappuah).
8 Now Causing to Forget (Manasseh) had
the land of The Apple City (Tappuah): but The Apple City (Tappuah) on the
border of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) belonged to the children of Double
Ash-Heap: Doubly Fruitful (Ephraim);
9 The border descended to the river Reed
(Kanah), southward of the river: these cities of Double Ash-Heap: Doubly
Fruitful (Ephraim) are among the cities of Causing to Forget (Manasseh): the
coast of Causing to Forget (Manasseh) also was on the north side of the river,
and the outgoings of it were at the sea:
10 Southward it was Double Ash-Heap:
Doubly Fruitful's (Ephraim), and northward it was Causing to Forget's
(Manasseh), and the sea is his border. They met together in Happy (Asher) on
the north, and in Recompense (Issachar) on the east.
11 Causing to Forget (Manasseh) had in Recompense
(Issachar) and in Happy (Asher) House of Ease (Bethshean) and her towns, Devouring
People (Ibleam) and her towns, the inhabitants of Generation (Dor) and her
towns, the inhabitants of Fountain of Generation (Endor) and her towns, the
inhabitants of Sandy (Taanach) and her towns, and the inhabitants of Place of
Crowds (Megiddo) and her towns, three countries.
12 Yet the children of Causing to Forget
(Manasseh) could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities, but the Humbled
Ones (Canaanites) would dwell in that land.
13 Yet it came to pass, when the children
of God Prevails (Israel) grew strong, that they put the Humbled Ones
(Canaanites) to tribute, but did not utterly drive them out.
14 The children of I AM Will Add (Joseph)
spoke to I AM is Salvation (Joshua), saying: Why have you given us but one lot
and one portion to inherit, seeing we are a great people, forasmuch as I AM
(the LORD, Yehovah) has blessed us so far?
15 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) answered
them: If you are a great people, then go up to the wood country, and cut down
for yourself there in the land of the Those Belonging to a Village (Perizzites)
and of the giants, if mount Double Ash-Heap: Doubly Fruitful (Ephraim) is too
small for you.
16 But the children of I AM Will Add
(Joseph) said: The hill is not enough for us: and all the Humbled Ones
(Canaanites) that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both
they who are of House of Ease (Bethshean) and her towns and they who are of the
valley of God Sows (Jezreel).
17 I AM is Salvation (Joshua) answered
the house of I AM Will Add (Joseph), Double Ash-Heap: Doubly Fruitful (Ephraim)
and Causing to Forget (Manasseh), saying: You are a great people, and have
great power: you shall not have one lot only:
18 But the mountain shall be yours; for
it is a wood, and you shall cut it down: the outgoings of it shall be yours:
for you shalt drive out the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), even though they have
iron chariots, and though they are strong.
