¹There was also a lot for the tribe of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] ; for he [was] the firstborn of Yosef [(God) He Shall Add] ; [that is to say] , for Makhir [Sold] the firstborn of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] , the father of Gil’ad [Rocky Region] : because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gil’ad [Rocky Region] and Bashan [Fruitful] .

²There was also [a lot] for the rest of the children of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] by their families; for the children of Avi-ezer [My Father is Help] , and for the children of Helek [Portion] , and for the children of Asri’el [I Shall Be a Prince with God] , and for the children of Sh’khem [Shoulder] , and for the children of Hefer [A Well] , and for the children of Sh’mida [Wise] : these [were] the male children of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] the son of Yosef [(God) He Shall Add] by their families.

³But Tz’lof’chad [First-Born] , the son of Hefer [A Well] , the son of Gil’ad [Rocky Region] , the son of Makhir [Sold] , the son of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] , had no sons, but daughters: and these [are] the names of his daughters, Machlah [Disease] , and No’ah [Motion] , Hoglah [Partidge] , Machlah [Queen] , and Tirtzah [Favourable] .

⁴And they came near before El’azar [God has helped] the priest, and before Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] the son of Nun [Posterity] , and before the princes, saying, The Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) commanded Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.

⁵And there fell ten portions to M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] , beside the land of Gil’ad [Rocky Region] and Bashan [Fruitful] , which [were] on the other side Yarden [Descender] ;

⁶Because the daughters of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] had an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] ’s sons had the land of Gil’ad [Rocky Region] .

⁷And the coast of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] was from Asher [Happy] to Mikhm’tat [Hiding Place] , that [lies] before Sh’khem [Shoulder] ; and the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of ‘Ein-Tapuach [Fountain of the Apple-City] .

⁸[Now] M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] had the land of Tapuach [The Apple City] : but Tapuach [The Apple City] on the border of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] [belonged] to the children of Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful] ;

⁹And the coast descended unto the river Kanah [Reed] , southward of the river: these cities of Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful] [are] among the cities of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] : the coast of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] also [was] on the north side of the river, and the extreme limits of it were at the sea:

¹⁰Southward [it was] Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful] ’s, and northward [it was] M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] ’s, and the sea is his border; and they met together in Asher [Happy] on the north, and in Yissakhar [There Is Recompense] on the east.

¹¹And M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] had in Yissakhar [There Is Recompense] and in Asher [Happy] Beit-Sh’an [House of Ease] and her towns, and Yivle’am [Devouring the People] and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor [Generation] and her towns, and the inhabitants of ‘Ein-Dor [spring of dwelling] and her towns, and the inhabitants of Ta’anakh [Sandy] and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo [Place of Crowds] and her towns, [even] three countries.

¹²Yet the children of M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] could not drive out [the inhabitants of] those cities; but the Kena’ani [Merchant] would dwell in that land.

¹³Yet it came to pass, when the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] were waxen strong, that they put the Kena’ani [Merchant] to tribute; but did not utterly drive them out.

¹⁴And the children of Yosef [(God) He Shall Add] spoke unto Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] , saying, Why have youi given me [but] one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I [am] a great people, forasmuch as the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) me up to this time?

¹⁵And Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] answered them, If youi [be] a great people, [then] get youi up to the wood [country] , and cut down for yourself there in the land of the P’rizi [Dwellers in Unwalled Towns] and of the giants, if mount Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful] be too narrow for youi .

¹⁶And the children of Yosef [(God) He Shall Add] said, The hill is not enough for us: and all the Kena’ani [Merchant] that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, [both they] who [are] of Beit-Sh’an [House of Ease] and her towns, and [they] who [are] of the valley of Yizre’el [God Sows] .

¹⁷And Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] spoke unto the house of Yosef [(God) He Shall Add] , [even] to Efrayim [Doubly Fruitful] and to M’nasheh [Causing to Forget] , saying, youi [are] a great people, and have great power: youi shall not have one lot [only] :

¹⁸But the mountain shall be youi ; for it [is] a wood, and youi shall cut it down: and the extreme limits of it shall be youi : for youi shall drive out the Kena’ani [Merchant] , though they have iron chariots, [and] though they [be] strong.
