- "And the lotª of the childrenª of Josephª fellª° from Jordanª¹ by Jericho,ª unto the waterª of Jerichoª on the east,ª to the wildernessª that goeth upª° from Jerichoª¹ throughout mountª Bethel,ª ... And they drave not outª°¹¹ the Canaanitesª that dweltª° in Gezer:ª but the Canaanitesª dwellª° amongª the Ephraimitesª unto¹ this¹ day,ª and serveª° under tribute.ª" {Jsh 16:1-10} + "[Now] Manassehª had¹ the landª of Tappuah:ª but Tappuahª on¹ the borderª of Manassehª [belonged] to the childrenª of Ephraim;ª ... Southwardª [it was] Ephraim's,ª and northwardª [it was] Manasseh's,ª and the seaª is¹ his border;ª and they met togetherª° in Asherª on the north,ª¹ and in Issacharª on the east.ª¹" {Jsh 17:8-10} + "And the childrenª of Josephª spakeª° unto¹¹ Joshua,ª saying,ª° Why¹ hast thou givenª° me [but] oneª lotª and oneª portionª to inherit,ª seeing I¹ [am] a greatª people,ª forasmuch¹ as² the LORDª hath blessedª° me hitherto?ª¹¹ ... But¹ the mountainª shall be¹ thine; for¹ it¹ [is] a wood,ª and thou shalt cut it down:ª° and the outgoingsª of it shall be¹ thine: for¹ thou shalt drive outª°¹ the Canaanites,ª though¹ they have ironª chariots,ª [and] though¹ they¹ [be] strong.ª" {Jsh 17:14-18}
