|
6. And the border H1366 went out H3318 toward the sea H3220 to Michmethah H4366 on the north side H4480 H6828 ; and the border H1366 went about H5437 eastward H4217 unto Taanath H8387 -shiloh , and passed by H5674 it on the east H4480 H4217 to Janohah H3239 ;
|
|
7. Then it went down from Janoah to Ataroth and to Naarah. It continued until it touched Jericho and stopped at the Jordan River.
|
7. And it went down H3381 from Janohah H4480 H3239 to Ataroth H5852 , and to Naarath H5292 , and came H6293 to Jericho H3405 , and went out H3318 at Jordan H3383 .
|
|
8. The border went from Tappuah west to Kanah Ravine and ended at the sea. This is all the land that was given to each family group in the tribe of the Ephraimites.

|
10. The Ephraimites could not force the Canaanites to leave Gezer, so the Canaanites still live among the Ephraimites today, but they became slaves of the Ephraimites.
