Verse 1

The allotment for Joseph began at the Jordan, east of the springs of Jericho, and went up from there through the desert into the hill country of Bethel.

Paulo toaa n’akwantu no so kɔɔ Derbe ne Listra. Ɛhɔ na na gyidini bi a ne din de Timoteo a ne na yɛ Yudani gyidini na n’agya nso yɛ Helani no te.

Verse 2

It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz),^[a] crossed over to the territory of the Arkites in Ataroth,

Anuanom a na wɔwɔ Listra ne Ikonium no nyinaa dii Timoteo ho adanse pa.

Verse 3

descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites as far as the region of Lower Beth Horon and on to Gezer, ending at the Mediterranean Sea.

Esiane sɛ na Paulo pɛ sɛ ɔde Timoteo ka ne ho kɔ nti, otwaa no twetia. Efisɛ, Yudafo a na wɔwɔ hɔ no nyinaa nim sɛ Timoteo n’agya yɛ Helani.

Verse 4

So Manasseh and Ephraim, the descendants of Joseph, received their inheritance.

Kurow biara a woduu so no, wɔkaa mmara a asomafo ne mpanyimfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem ahyɛ sɛ wonni so no kyerɛɛ wɔn.

Verse 5

This was the territory of Ephraim, according to its clans:

The boundary of their inheritance went from Ataroth Addar in the east to Upper Beth Horon

Asafo no nyinii gyidi mu na daa nnipa pii bɛkaa wɔn ho.

Twa bra Makedonia

Verse 6

and continued to the Mediterranean Sea. From Mikmethath on the north it curved eastward to Taanath Shiloh, passing by it to Janoah on the east.

Esiane sɛ Honhom Kronkron amma wɔn kwan sɛ wɔnka asɛm no wɔ Asia no nti, wɔkɔɔ Frigia ne Galatia.

Verse 7

Then it went down from Janoah to Ataroth and Naarah, touched Jericho and came out at the Jordan.

Woduu Misia hye so no, wɔpɛe sɛ anka wɔkɔ Bitinia nanso Yesu Honhom no amma wɔn kwan.

Verse 8

From Tappuah the border went west to the Kanah Ravine and ended at the Mediterranean Sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the Ephraimites, according to its clans.

Enti wɔfaa Misia kosii Troa.

Verse 9

It also included all the towns and their villages that were set aside for the Ephraimites within the inheritance of the Manassites.

Da no anadwo Paulo huu anisoade sɛ ɔbarima bi a ofi Makedonia gyina hɔ resrɛ no se, “Twa bra Makedonia bɛboa yɛn!”

Verse 10

They did not dislodge the Canaanites living in Gezer; to this day the Canaanites live among the people of Ephraim but are required to do forced labor.

Anisoadehu yi akyi no, yɛboaboaa yɛn ho sɛ yɛbɛkɔ Makedonia, efisɛ, yɛtee ase sɛ Onyankopɔn na wafrɛ yɛn sɛ yɛnkɔka Asɛmpa no wɔ hɔ.
