約書亞記 17
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1瑪拿西 是 約瑟 的長子，他的支派拈鬮所得之地記在下面。至於 瑪拿西 的長子 基列 之父 瑪吉 ，因為是勇士就得了 基列 和 巴珊 。
1Now this was the allotment for the tribe of Manasseh as Joseph’s firstborn son, namely for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh and father of the Gileadites, who had received Gilead and Bashan because Machir was a man of war.
2瑪拿西 其餘的子孫，按着宗族 拈鬮分地 ，就是 亞比以謝 子孫， 希勒 子孫， 亞斯列 子孫， 示劍 子孫， 希弗 子孫， 示米大 子孫；這些按着宗族，都是 約瑟 兒子 瑪拿西 子孫的男丁。
2So this allotment was for the rest of the descendants of Manasseh—the clans of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida. These are the other male descendants of the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph.
3瑪拿西 的玄孫， 瑪吉 的曾孫， 基列 的孫子， 希弗 的兒子 西羅非哈 沒有兒子，只有女兒。他的女兒名叫 瑪拉 、 挪阿 、 曷拉 、 密迦 、 得撒 ；
3But Zelophehad son of Hepher (the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh) had no sons but only daughters. These are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4她們來到祭司 以利亞撒 和 嫩 的兒子 約書亞 並眾首領面前，說：「耶和華曾吩咐 摩西 在我們弟兄中分給我們產業。」於是 約書亞 照耶和華所吩咐的，在她們伯叔中，把產業分給她們。
4They approached Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the leaders, and said, “The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers.” So Joshua gave them an inheritance among their father’s brothers, in keeping with the command of the LORD.
5除了 約旦河 東的 基列 和 巴珊 地之外，還有十分地歸 瑪拿西 ，
5Thus ten shares fell to Manasseh, in addition to the land of Gilead and Bashan beyond the Jordan,
6因為 瑪拿西 的孫女們在 瑪拿西 的孫子中得了產業。 基列 地是屬 瑪拿西 其餘的子孫。
6because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance among his sons. And the land of Gilead belonged to the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
7瑪拿西 的境界：從 亞設 起，到 示劍 前的 密米他 ，往北到 隱‧他普亞 居民 之地 。
7Now the border of Manasseh went from Asher to Michmethath near Shechem, then southward to include the inhabitants of En-tappuah.
8他普亞 地歸 瑪拿西 ，只是 瑪拿西 境界上的 他普亞 城 歸 以法蓮 子孫。
8The region of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh, but Tappuah itself, on the border of Manasseh, belonged to Ephraim.
9其界下到 加拿河 的南邊。在 瑪拿西 城邑中的這些城邑都歸 以法蓮 。 瑪拿西 的地界是在河北直通到海為止；
9From there the border continued southward to the Brook of Kanah. There were cities belonging to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh, but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook and ended at the Sea.
10南歸 以法蓮 ，北歸 瑪拿西 ，以海為界；北邊到 亞設 ，東邊到 以薩迦 。
10Ephraim’s territory was to the south, and Manasseh’s was to the north, having the Sea as its border and adjoining Asher on the north and Issachar on the east.
11瑪拿西 在 以薩迦 和 亞設 境內，有 伯‧善 和屬 伯‧善 的鎮市， 以伯蓮 和屬 以伯蓮 的鎮市， 多珥 的居民和屬 多珥 的鎮市；又有三處山岡，就是 隱‧多珥 和屬 隱‧多珥 的鎮市； 他納 的居民和屬 他納 的鎮市， 米吉多 的居民和屬 米吉多 的鎮市。
11Within Issachar and Asher, Manasseh was assigned Beth-shean, Ibleam, Dor (that is, Naphath), Endor, Taanach, and Megiddo, each with their surrounding settlements.
12只是 瑪拿西 子孫不能趕出這些城的 居民 ， 迦南 人偏要住在那地。
12But the descendants of Manasseh were unable to occupy these cities, because the Canaanites were determined to stay in this land.
13及至 以色列 人強盛了，就使 迦南 人做苦工，沒有把他們全然趕出。
13However, when the Israelites grew stronger, they put the Canaanites to forced labor; but they failed to drive them out completely.
14約瑟 的子孫對 約書亞 說：「耶和華到如今既然賜福與我們，我們也族大人多，你為甚麼僅將一鬮一段之地分給我們為業呢？」
14Then the sons of Joseph said to Joshua, “Why have you given us only one portion as an inheritance? We have many people, because the LORD has blessed us abundantly.”
15約書亞 說：「你們如果族大人多，嫌 以法蓮 山地窄小，就可以上 比利洗 人、 利乏音 人之地，在樹林中砍伐 樹木 。」
15Joshua answered them, “If you have so many people that the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you, go to the forest and clear for yourself an area in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim.”
16約瑟 的子孫說：「那山地容不下我們，並且住平原的 迦南 人，就是住 伯‧善 和屬 伯‧善 的鎮市，並住 耶斯列 平原的人，都有鐵車。」
16“The hill country is not enough for us,” they replied, “and all the Canaanites who live in the valley have iron chariots, both in Beth-shean with its towns and in the Valley of Jezreel.”
17約書亞 對 約瑟 家，就是 以法蓮 和 瑪拿西 人，說：「你是族大人多，並且強盛，不可僅有一鬮之地，
17So Joshua said to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh—“You have many people and great strength. You shall not have just one allotment,
18山地也要歸你，雖是樹林，你也可以砍伐；靠近之地必歸你。 迦南 人雖有鐵車，雖是強盛，你也能把他們趕出去。」
18because the hill country will be yours as well. It is a forest; clear it, and its farthest limits will be yours. Although the Canaanites have iron chariots and although they are strong, you can drive them out.”
