1 και εγενετο τα ορια φυλης υιων μανασση οτι ουτος πρωτοτοκος τω ιωσηφ τω μαχιρ πρωτοτοκω μανασση πατρι γαλααδ ανηρ γαρ πολεμιστης ην εν τη γαλααδιτιδι και εν τη βασανιτιδι1 Now this lot fell to the tribe of Manasseh, since he is the firstborn of Joseph: to Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, who was a fighting man, and he had as a possession Gilead and Bashan;
2 και εγενηθη τοις υιοις μανασση τοις λοιποις κατα δημους αυτων τοις υιοις ιεζερ και τοις υιοις κελεζ και τοις υιοις ιεζιηλ και τοις υιοις συχεμ και τοις υιοις συμαριμ και τοις υιοις οφερ ουτοι οι αρσενες κατα δημους αυτων2 and to the rest of the sons of Manasseh, according to their families: to the sons of Abiezer, and to the sons of Helek, and to the sons of Asriel, and to the sons of Shechem, and to the sons of Hepher, and to the sons of Shemida. These are the sons of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, the males, by their families.
3 και τω σαλπααδ υιω οφερ ουκ ησαν αυτω υιοι αλλ' η θυγατερες και ταυτα τα ονοματα των θυγατερων σαλπααδ μααλα και νουα και εγλα και μελχα και θερσα3 Yet truly, Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters, whose names are these: Mahlah and Noah and Hoglah and Milcah and Tirzah.
4 και εστησαν εναντιον ελεαζαρ του ιερεως και εναντιον ιησου και εναντιον των αρχοντων λεγουσαι ο θεος ενετειλατο δια χειρος μωυση δουναι ημιν κληρονομιαν εν μεσω των αδελφων ημων και εδοθη αυταις δια προσταγματος κυριου κληρος εν τοις αδελφοις του πατρος αυτων4 And they went before the sight of Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the leaders, saying: “The Lord instructed by the hand of Moses that a possession ought to be given to us, in the midst of our brothers.” And so, he gave to them, in accord with the order of the Lord, a possession in the midst of the brothers of their father.
5 και επεσεν ο σχοινισμος αυτων απο ανασσα και πεδιον λαβεκ εκ της γαλααδ η εστιν περαν του ιορδανου5 And by lot, there fell ten portions to Manasseh, aside from the land of Gilead and Bashan beyond the Jordan.
6 οτι θυγατερες υιων μανασση εκληρονομησαν κληρον εν μεσω των αδελφων αυτων η δε γη γαλααδ εγενηθη τοις υιοις μανασση τοις καταλελειμμενοις6 And so the daughters of Manasseh possessed an inheritance in the midst of his sons. But the land of Gilead fell by lot to the sons of Manasseh that were left.
7 και εγενηθη ορια υιων μανασση δηλαναθ η εστιν κατα προσωπον υιων αναθ και πορευεται επι τα ορια επι ιαμιν και ιασσιβ επι πηγην θαφθωθ7 And the border of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, which looks out toward Shechem. And it goes out, to the right, beside the inhabitants of the Fountain of Tappuah.
8 τω μανασση εσται και θαφεθ επι των οριων μανασση τοις υιοις εφραιμ8 For by lot, there also fell to Manasseh the land of Tappuah, which is beside the borders of Manasseh, and which belongs to the sons of Ephraim.
9 και καταβησεται τα ορια επι φαραγγα καρανα επι λιβα κατα φαραγγα ιαριηλ τερεμινθος τω εφραιμ ανα μεσον πολεως μανασση και ορια μανασση επι τον βορραν εις τον χειμαρρουν και εσται αυτου η διεξοδος θαλασσα9 And the border descends to the Valley of Reeds, to the south of the torrent of the cities of Ephraim, which are in the midst of the cities of Manasseh. The border of Manasseh is to the north of the torrent, and its exit extends to the sea.
10 απο λιβος τω εφραιμ και επι βορραν μανασση και εσται η θαλασσα ορια αυτοις και επι ασηρ συναψουσιν επι βορραν και τω ισσαχαρ απ' ανατολων10 So it is that the possession of Ephraim is in the south, and that of Manasseh is in the north, and both are enclosed by the sea, and they are joined together by the tribe of Asher to the north, and by the tribe of Issachar to the east.
11 και εσται μανασση εν ισσαχαρ και εν ασηρ βαιθσαν και αι κωμαι αυτων και τους κατοικουντας δωρ και τας κωμας αυτης και τους κατοικουντας μαγεδδω και τας κωμας αυτης και το τριτον της ναφετα και τας κωμας αυτης11 And the inheritance of Manasseh, in Issachar and in Asher, was Bethshean and its villages, and Ibleam with its villages, and the inhabitants of Dor, with their towns, likewise the inhabitants of Endor with their villages, and similarly the inhabitants of Taanach with their villages, and the inhabitants of Megiddo with their villages, and one third part of the city of Naphath.
12 και ουκ ηδυνασθησαν οι υιοι μανασση εξολεθρευσαι τας πολεις ταυτας και ηρχετο ο χαναναιος κατοικειν εν τη γη ταυτη12 The sons of Manasseh were not able to overthrow these cities, and so the Canaanite began to dwell in their land.
13 και εγενηθη και επει κατισχυσαν οι υιοι ισραηλ και εποιησαν τους χαναναιους υπηκοους εξολεθρευσαι δε αυτους ουκ εξωλεθρευσαν13 But after the sons of Israel had grown strong, they subdued the Canaanites, and made them their tributaries, but they did not kill them.
14 αντειπαν δε οι υιοι ιωσηφ τω ιησου λεγοντες δια τι εκληρονομησας ημας κληρον ενα και σχοινισμα εν εγω δε λαος πολυς ειμι και ο θεος ευλογησεν με14 And the sons of Joseph spoke to Joshua, and they said, “Why have you given to me as a possession one lot and one portion, while I am of such a great multitude, and the Lord has blessed me?”
15 και ειπεν αυτοις ιησους ει λαος πολυς ει αναβηθι εις τον δρυμον και εκκαθαρον σεαυτω ει στενοχωρει σε το ορος το εφραιμ15 And Joshua said to them, “If you are a numerous people, go up into the forest, and cut out space for yourself in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim, since the possession of mount Ephraim is too narrow for you.”
16 και ειπαν ουκ αρκεσει ημιν το ορος το εφραιμ και ιππος επιλεκτος και σιδηρος τω χαναναιω τω κατοικουντι εν αυτω εν βαιθσαν και εν ταις κωμαις αυτης εν τη κοιλαδι ιεζραελ16 And the sons of Joseph responded to him: “We are not able to ascend to the mountains, since the Canaanites, who live in the plains, in which are situated Bethshean, with its villages, and Jezreel, possessing the middle of the valley, use chariots of iron.”
17 και ειπεν ιησους τοις υιοις ιωσηφ ει λαος πολυς ει και ισχυν μεγαλην εχεις ουκ εσται σοι κληρος εις17 And Joshua said to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh: “You are a numerous people, and you have great strength. You shall not have only one lot.
18 ο γαρ δρυμος εσται σοι οτι δρυμος εστιν και εκκαθαριεις αυτον και εσται σοι και οταν εξολεθρευσης τον χαναναιον οτι ιππος επιλεκτος εστιν αυτω συ γαρ υπερισχυεις αυτου18 Instead, you shall cross to the mountain, and you shall cut down and clear out for yourselves space in which to live. And you shall be able to advance further, when you will have destroyed the Canaanite, who, as you say, has iron chariots and is very strong.”
