1 # There was also a lot <01486> for the tribe <04294> of Manasseh <04519>; for he was the firstborn <01060> of Joseph <03130>; to wit, for Machir <04353> the firstborn <01060> of Manasseh <04519>, the father <01> of Gilead <01568>: because he was a man <0376> of war <04421>, therefore he had Gilead <01568> and Bashan <01316>.
2 There was also a lot for the rest <03498> (8737) of the children <01121> of Manasseh <04519> by their families <04940>; for the children <01121> of Abiezer <044>, and for the children <01121> of Helek <02507>, and for the children <01121> of Asriel <0844>, and for the children <01121> of Shechem <07928>, and for the children <01121> of Hepher <02660>, and for the children <01121> of Shemida <08061>: these were the male <02145> children <01121> of Manasseh <04519> the son <01121> of Joseph <03130> by their families <04940>.
3 But Zelophehad <06765>, the son <01121> of Hepher <02660>, the son <01121> of Gilead <01568>, the son <01121> of Machir <04353>, the son <01121> of Manasseh <04519>, had no sons <01121>, but daughters <01323>: and these are the names <08034> of his daughters <01323>, Mahlah <04244>, and Noah <05270>, Hoglah <02295>, Milcah <04435>, and Tirzah <08656> .
4 And they came near <07126> (8799) before <06440> Eleazar <0499> the priest <03548>, and before <06440> Joshua <03091> the son <01121> of Nun <05126>, and before <06440> the princes <05387>, saying <0559> (8800), The LORD <03068> commanded <06680> (8765) Moses <04872> to give <05414> (8800) us an inheritance <05159> among <08432> our brethren <0251>. Therefore according to the commandment <06310> of the LORD <03068> he gave <05414> (8799) them an inheritance <05159> among <08432> the brethren <0251> of their father <01>.
5 And there fell <05307> (8799) ten <06235> portions <02256> to Manasseh <04519>, beside the land <0776> of Gilead <01568> and Bashan <01316>, which were on the other side <05676> Jordan <03383>;
6 Because the daughters <01323> of Manasseh <04519> had <05157> (8804) an inheritance <05159> among <08432> his sons <01121>: and the rest <03498> (8737) of Manasseh's <04519> sons <01121> had the land <0776> of Gilead <01568>.
7 # And the coast <01366> of Manasseh <04519> was from Asher <0836> to Michmethah <04366>, that lieth before <06440> Shechem <07927>; and the border <01366> went along <01980> (8804) on the right hand <03225> unto the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Entappuah <05887>.
8 Now Manasseh <04519> had the land <0776> of Tappuah <08599>: but Tappuah <08599> on the border <01366> of Manasseh <04519> belonged to the children <01121> of Ephraim <0669>;
9 And the coast <01366> descended <03381> (8804) unto the river <05158> Kanah <07071>, southward <05045> of the river <05158>: these cities <05892> of Ephraim <0669> are among <08432> the cities <05892> of Manasseh <04519> : the coast <01366> of Manasseh <04519> also was on the north side <06828> of the river <05158>, and the outgoings <08444> of it were at the sea <03220>:
10 Southward <05045> it was Ephraim's <0669>, and northward <06828> it was Manasseh's <04519>, and the sea <03220> is his border <01366>; and they met together <06293> (8799) in Asher <0836> on the north <06828>, and in Issachar <03485> on the east <04217>.
11 And Manasseh <04519> had in Issachar <03485> and in Asher <0836> Bethshean <01052> and her towns <01323>, and Ibleam <02991> and her towns <01323>, and the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Dor <01756> and her towns <01323>, and the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Endor <05874> and her towns <01323>, and the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Taanach <08590> and her towns <01323>, and the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Megiddo <04023> and her towns <01323>, even three <07969> countries <05316>.
12 Yet the children <01121> of Manasseh <04519> could <03201> (8804) not drive out <03423> (8687) the inhabitants of those cities <05892>; but the Canaanites <03669> would <02974> (8686) dwell <03427> (8800) in that land <0776>.
13 Yet it came to pass, when the children <01121> of Israel <03478> were waxen strong <02388> (8804), that they put <05414> (8799) the Canaanites <03669> to tribute <04522>; but did not utterly <03423> (8687) drive them out <03423> (8689).
14 # And the children <01121> of Joseph <03130> spake <01696> (8762) unto Joshua <03091>, saying <0559> (8800), Why hast thou given <05414> (8804) me but one <0259> lot <01486> and one <0259> portion <02256> to inherit <05159>, seeing I am a great <07227> people <05971>, forasmuch as <05704> the LORD <03068> hath blessed <01288> (8765) me hitherto <03541>?
15 And Joshua <03091> answered <0559> (8799) them, If thou be a great <07227> people <05971>, then get thee up <05927> (8798) to the wood <03293> country, and cut down <01254> (8765) for thyself there in the land <0776> of the Perizzites <06522> and of the giants <07497>, if mount <02022> Ephraim <0669> be too narrow <0213> (8804) for thee.
16 And the children <01121> of Joseph <03130> said <0559> (8799), The hill <02022> is not enough <04672> (8735) for us: and all the Canaanites <03669> that dwell <03427> (8802) in the land <0776> of the valley <06010> have chariots <07393> of iron <01270>, both they who are of Bethshean <01052> and her towns <01323>, and they who are of the valley <06010> of Jezreel <03157>.
17 And Joshua <03091> spake <0559> (8799) unto the house <01004> of Joseph <03130>, even to Ephraim <0669> and to Manasseh <04519>, saying <0559> (8800), Thou art a great <07227> people <05971>, and hast great <01419> power <03581>: thou shalt not have one <0259> lot <01486> only:
18 But the mountain <02022> shall be thine; for it is a wood <03293>, and thou shalt cut it down <01254> (8765): and the outgoings <08444> of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out <03423> (8686) the Canaanites <03669>, though they have iron <01270> chariots <07393>, and though they be strong <02389>.
