¹There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn of Joseph; to wit, for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead: because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.

¹In to je bil delež Manasejevemu rodu – kajti on je bil Jožefov prvenec –: Mahirju, Manasejevemu prvencu, očetu Gileadovemu, sta se pridelila Gilead in Basan, zato ker je bil vojščak.

²There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh by their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph by their families.

²Drugi Manasejevi sinovi so dobili tudi delež po svojih rodovinah, namreč otroci Abiezerjevi, otroci Helekovi, otroci Asrielovi, otroci Sihemovi, otroci Heferjevi in otroci Semidovi: to so bili moški potomci Manaseja, sinu Jožefovega, po svojih rodovinah.

³But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

³Ali Zelofad, sin Heferja, sina Gileada, sina Mahirja, sina Manaseja, ni imel sinov, ampak hčere, in njih imena so ta: Mahla, Noa, Hogla, Milka in Tirza.

⁴And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.

⁴Te stopijo pred duhovnika Eleazarja in pred Jozueta, sina Nunovega, in pred kneze in reko: GOSPOD je zapovedal Mojzesu, naj nam da dediščino med našimi brati. Zato jim je dal po zapovedi GOSPODOVI dediščino med brati njih očeta.

⁵And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which were on the other side Jordan;

⁵In tako je pripadlo Manaseju deset delov razen Gileadske dežele in Basana, ki je vzhodno od Jordana;

⁶Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.

⁶kajti Manasejeve hčere so prejele dediščino med njegovimi sinovi, Gileadska dežela pa je pripadla drugim Manasejevim sinovom.

⁷And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that lieth before Shechem; and the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of Entappuah.

⁷In Manasejeva meja je šla od Aserja do Mikmetata, ki je pred Sihemom, in je šla dalje na desno k prebivalcem Entapuaha.

⁸Now Manasseh had the land of Tappuah: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim;

⁸Kajti pokrajina Tapuah je bila Manasejeva, ali Tapuah ob Manasejevi meji je bil Efraimovih sinov.

⁹And the coast descended unto the river Kanah, southward of the river: these cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh: the coast of Manasseh also was on the north side of the river, and the outgoings of it were at the sea:

⁹Potem je šla meja doli k potoku Kani, južno od potoka; ta mesta so bila Efraimova sredi med Manasejevimi mesti. Pokrajina Manasejeva pa je bila na severni strani potoka in njen konec je bil pri morju:

¹⁰Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea is his border; and they met together in Asher on the north, and in Issachar on the east.

¹⁰južno je bila Efraimova, severno pa Manasejeva, in morje mu je bilo v mejo; do Aserja se je raztezala proti severu in do Isaharja proti jutru.

¹¹And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Bethshean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even three countries.

¹¹Manase pa je imel v Isaharju in v Aserju: Betsean in njemu podložne vasi in Ibleam in njemu podložne vasi, in prebivalce v Doru in njih podložne vasi in prebivalce v Endoru in njih podložne vasi in prebivalce v Taanahu in njih podložne vasi in prebivalce v Megidu in njih podložne vasi, tiste tri višine.

¹²Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

¹²Toda Manasejevi sinovi niso mogli pregnati prebivalcev tistih mest, in Kanaancem se je zljubilo ostati v tej deželi.

¹³Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, but did not utterly drive them out.

¹³Ko pa so se ojačili Izraelovi sinovi, so podvrgli Kanaance davku, a jih niso dočista pregnali.

¹⁴And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me hitherto?

¹⁴Jožefovi sinovi pa so govorili z Jozuetom in rekli: Zakaj si dal meni samo en delež in del v dediščino, ko sem vendar veliko ljudstvo, ker me je doslej blagoslovil GOSPOD?

¹⁵And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get thee up to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee.

¹⁵In Jozue jim reče: Ako si veliko ljudstvo, pojdi gori v gozd in si iztrebi ondi v deželi Ferizejcev in Refaimov, ko ti je Efraimsko gorovje pretesno.

¹⁶And the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are of Bethshean and her towns, and they who are of the valley of Jezreel.

¹⁶A Jožefovi sinovi reko: To gorovje nam ne bode zadosti; vsi Kanaanci pa, ki prebivajo v ravnini, imajo železne vozove, i oni, ki so v Betseanu in njemu podložnih mestih, i oni, ki so na Jezreelski ravnini.

¹⁷And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot only:

¹⁷Tedaj reče Jozue Jožefovi hiši, Efraimu in Manaseju: Veliko si ljudstvo in veliko imaš moč, ne boš imel le enega deleža,ampak gorovje bodi tvoje; ker pa je gozd, posekaj ga in do koncev gozda bodi tvoje; zakaj ti preženeš Kanaance, čeprav imajo železne vozove in čeprav so močni.

¹⁸But the mountain shall be thine; for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it down: and the outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they be strong.

¹⁸ampak gorovje bodi tvoje; ker pa je gozd, posekaj ga in do koncev gozda bodi tvoje; zakaj ti preženeš Kanaance, čeprav imajo železne vozove in čeprav so močni.
