1ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο τὰ ὅρια φυλῆς υἱῶν Μανασσῆ, ὅτι οὗτος πρωτότοκος τῷ Ἰωσήφ· τῷ Μαχὶρ πρωτοτόκῳ Μανασσῆ πατρὶ Γαλαάδ (ἀνὴρ γὰρ πολεμιστὴς ἦν) ἐν τῇ Γαλααδίτιδι καὶ ἐν τῇ Βασανίτιδι.
1And this was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the first-born of Joseph. As for Machir the first-born of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2καὶ ἐγενήθη τοῖς υἱοῖς Μανασσῆ τοῖς λοιποῖς κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν, τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰεζὲρ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Κελὲζ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἱεζιὴλ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Συχὲμ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Συμαρὶμ καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ὀφέρ· οὗτοι ἄρσενες κατὰ δήμους αὐτῶν.
2And the lot was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida; these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.
3καὶ τῷ Σαλπαὰδ υἱῷ Ὀφὲρ οὐκ ἦσαν αὐτῷ υἱοί, ἀλλ' ἢ θυγατέρες. καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν θυγατέρων Σαλπαάδ· Μααλὰ καὶ Νουὰ καὶ Ἐγλὰ καὶ Μελχὰ καὶ Θερσά.
3But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters; and these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4καὶ ἔστησαν ἐναντίον Ἐλεάζαρ τοῦ ἱερέως, καὶ ἐναντίον Ἰησοῦ, καὶ ἐναντίον τῶν ἀρχόντων λέγουσαι· ὁ Θεὸς ἐνετείλατο διά χειρὸς Μωυσῆ δοῦναι ἡμῖν κληρονομίαν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν. καὶ ἐδόθη αὐταῖς διὰ προστάγματος Κυρίου κλῆρος ἐν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν.
4And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying: 'The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren'; therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
5καὶ ἔπεσεν ὁ σχοινισμὸς αὐτῶν ἀπὸ Ἀνάσσα καὶ πεδίον Λαβὲκ ἐκ τῆς γῆς Γαλαάδ, ἥ ἐστι πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου·
5And there fell ten parts to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which is beyond the Jordan;
6ὅτι θυγατέρες υἱῶν Μανασσῆ ἐκληρονόμησαν κλῆρον ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν· ἡ δὲ γῆ Γαλαὰδ ἐγενήθη τοῖς υἱοῖς Μανασσῆ τοῖς καταλελειμμένοις.
6because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons; and the land of Gilead belonged unto the rest of the sons of Manasseh.
7καὶ ἐγενήθη ὅρια υἱῶν Μανασσῆ Δηλανάθ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον υἱῶν Ἀνάθ, καὶ πορεύεται ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ Ἰαμὶν καὶ Ἰασσὶβ ἐπὶ πηγὴν Θαφθώθ·
7And the border of Manasseh was, beginning from Asher, Michmethath, which is before Shechem; and the border went along to the right hand, unto the inhabitants of En-tappuah. —
8τῷ Μανασσῇ ἔσται, καὶ Θαφὲθ ἐπὶ τῶν ὁρίων Μανασσῆ, τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἐφραίμ.
8The land of Tappuah belonged to Manasseh; but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim. —
9καὶ καταβήσεται τὰ ὅρια ἐπὶ φάραγγα Καρανὰ ἐπὶ λίβα κατὰ φάραγγα Ἰαριήλ, τερέβινθος τῷ Ἐφραὶμ ἀνὰ μέσον πόλεως Μανασσῆ· καὶ ὅρια Μανασσῆ ἐπὶ τὸν βορρᾶν εἰς τὸν χειμάρρουν, καὶ ἔσται αὐτοῦ ἡ διέξοδος θάλασσα.
9And the border went down unto the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook, by cities which belonged to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh; but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook; and the goings out thereof were at the sea:
10ἀπὸ λιβὸς τῷ Ἐφραίμ, καὶ ἐπὶ βορρᾶν Μανασσῆ, καὶ ἔσται ἡ θάλασσα ὅρια αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἐπὶ Ἀσὴβ συνάψουσιν ἐπὶ βορρᾶν καὶ τῷ Ἰσσάχαρ ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν.
10southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was his border; and they reached to Asher on the north, and to Issachar on the east.
11καὶ ἔσται Μανασσῆ ἐν Ἰσσάχαρ καὶ ἐν Ἀσὴρ Βαιθσὰν καὶ αἱ κῶμαι αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δὼρ καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Μαγεδδώ, καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς, καὶ τὸ τρίτον τῆς Ναφετὰ καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς.
11And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of En-dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, even the three regions.
12καὶ οὐκ ἠδυνάσθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Μανασσῆ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τὰς πόλεις ταύτας, καὶ ἤρχετο ὁ Χαναναῖος κατοικεῖν ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ·
12Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites were resolved to dwell in that land.
13καὶ ἐγενήθη καὶ ἐπεὶ κατίσχυσαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐποίησαν τοὺς Χαναναίους ὑπηκόους, ἐξολοθρεῦσαι δὲ αὐτοὺς οὐκ ἐξωλόθρευσαν.
13And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, but did not utterly drive them out.
14ἀντεῖπαν δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰωσὴφ τῷ Ἰησοῖ λέγοντες· διατί ἐκληρονόμησας ἡμᾶς κλῆρον ἕνα καὶ σχοίνισμα ἕν; ἐγὼ δὲ λαὸς πολύς εἰμι, καὶ ὁ Θεὸς εὐλόγησέ με.
14And the children of Joseph spoke unto Joshua, saying: 'Why hast thou given me but one lot and one part for an inheritance, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me thus?'
15καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ἰησοῦς· εἰ λαὸς πολὺς εἶ, ἀνάβηθι εἰς τὸν δρυμὸν καὶ ἐκκάθαρον σεαυτῷ, εἰ στενοχωρεῖ σε τὸ ὄρος τὸ Ἐφραίμ.
15And Joshua said unto them: 'If thou be a great people, get thee up to the forest, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill-country of Ephraim is too narrow for thee.'
16καὶ εἶπαν· οὐκ ἀρέσκει ἡμῖν τὸ ὄρος τὸ Ἐφραίμ, καὶ ἵππος ἐπίλεκτος καὶ σίδηρος τῷ Χαναναίῳ τῷ κατοικοῦντι ἐν αὐτῷ ἐν Βαιθσὰν καὶ ἐν ταῖς κώμαις αὐτῆς, ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι Ἰεσραέλ.
16And the children of Joseph said: 'The hill-country will not be enough for us; and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are in Beth-shean and its towns, and they who are in the valley of Jezreel.'
17καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰωσήφ· εἰ λαὸς πολὺς εἶ, καὶ ἰσχὺν μεγάλην ἔχεις, οὐκ ἔσται σοι κλῆρος εἷς·
17And Joshua spoke unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying: 'Thou art a great people, and hast great power; thou shalt not have one lot only;
18ὁ γὰρ δρυμὸς ἔσται σοι, ὅτι δρυμός ἐστι καὶ ἐκκαθαριεῖς αὐτόν, καὶ ἔσται σοι· καὶ ὅταν ἐξολοθρεύσῃς τὸν Χαναναῖον, ὅτι ἵππος ἐπίλεκτος αὐτῷ ἐστι, σὺ γὰρ ὑπερισχύεις αὐτοῦ.
18but the hill-country shall be thine; for though it is a forest, thou shalt cut it down, and the goings out thereof shall be thine; for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they be strong.'
