Chapter 16
Josh RWebster 16:1  And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, to the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Bethel,
Josh RWebster 16:2  And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along to the borders of Archi to Ataroth,
Josh RWebster 16:3  And goeth down westward to the border of Japhleti, to the border of Bethhoron the lower, and to Gezer: and the ends of it are at the sea.
Josh RWebster 16:4  So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
Josh RWebster 16:5  And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus : even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Atarothaddar, to Bethhoron the upper;
Josh RWebster 16:6  And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward to Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;
Josh RWebster 16:7  And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and came out at Jordan.
Josh RWebster 16:8  The border went out from Tappuah westward to the river Kanah; and the ends of it were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.
Josh RWebster 16:9  And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
Josh RWebster 16:10  And they did not drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites to this day, and serve at forced labour.
