17:1 And
[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.
17:2 So
[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.
17:3 But
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.
17:4 And
they
came
near
before
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
before
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun,
and
before
the
princes,
saying,
Jehovah
commanded
Moses
to
give
us
an
inheritance
among
our
brethren:
therefore
according
to
the
commandment
of
Jehovah
he
gave
them
an
inheritance
among
the
brethren
of
their
father.
17:5 And
there
fell
ten
parts
to
Manasseh,
besides
the
land
of
Gilead
and
Bashan,
which
is
beyond
the
Jordan;
17:6 because
the
daughters
of
Manasseh
had
an
inheritance
among
his
sons.
And
the
land
of
Gilead
belonged
unto
the
rest
of
the
sons
of
Manasseh.
17:7 And
the
border
of
Manasseh
was
from
Asher
to
Michmethath,
which
is
before
Shechem;
and
the
border
went
along
to
the
right
hand,
unto
the
inhabitants
of
En-tappuah.
17:8 The
land
of
Tappuah
belonged
to
Manasseh;
but
Tappuah
on
the
border
of
Manasseh
belonged
to
the
children
of
Ephraim.
17:9 And
the
border
went
down
unto
the
brook
of
Kanah,
southward
of
the
brook:
these
cities
belonged
to
Ephraim
among
the
cities
of
Manasseh:
and
the
border
of
Manasseh
was
on
the
north
side
of
the
brook,
and
the
goings
out
thereof
were
at
the
sea:
17:10 southward
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.
17:11 And
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
heights.
17:12 Yet
the
children
of
Manasseh
could
not
drive
out
[the
inhabitants
of]
those
cities;
but
the
Canaanites
would
dwell
in
that
land.
17:13 And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
children
of
Israel
were
waxed
strong,
that
they
put
the
Canaanites
to
taskwork,
and
did
not
utterly
drive
them
out.
17:14 And
the
children
of
Joseph
spake
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
hitherto
Jehovah
hath
blessed
me
17:15 And
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.
17:16 And
the
children
of
Joseph
said,
The
hill-country
is
not
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.
17:17 And
Joshua
spake
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:
17:18 but
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
are
strong.
