¹Ndiwo mugove worudzi rwaManase; nekuti iye wakange ari mwana wedangwe waJosefa. Kana ari Makiri, mwana wedangwe waManase, baba vaGiriyadhi, iye wakapiwa Giriyadhi neBhashani, nekuti wakange ari murwi.

¹And the lot is for the tribe of Manasseh (for he [is] first-born of Joseph), for Machir first-born of Manasseh, father of Gilead, for he hath been a man of war, and his are Gilead and Bashan.

²Vamwe vana vaManase vakapiwa mugove nemhuri dzavo: Vana vaAbhiezeri, navana vaHereki, navana vaAsirieri, navana vaShekemu, navana vaHeferi, navana vaShemidha, ndivo vakanga vari vana vavakomana vaManase, mwanakomana waJosefa, nemhuri dzavo.

²And there is for the sons of Manasseh who are left, for their families; for the sons of Abiezer, and for the sons of Helek, and for the sons of Asriel, and for the sons of Shechem, and for the sons of Hepher, and for the sons of Shemida; these [are] the children of Manasseh son of Joseph — the males — by their families.

³Asi Zerofeadhi, mwanakomana waHeferi, mwanakomana waGiriyadhi, mwanakomana waMakiri, mwanakomana waManase, wakange asina vanakomana, asi vanasikana chete; mazita avanasikana vake akanga ari Mara, naNowa, naHogira, naMirika, naTiriza.

³As to Zelophehad, son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, he hath no children except daughters, and these [are] the names of his daughters: Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah,

⁴Ivo vakaswedera kumupristi Ereazari, nokuna Joshua, mwanakomana waNuni, nokumachinda, vakati, Jehovha wakaraira Mozisi kuti atipe nhaka pakati pehama dzedu; naizvozvo akavapa nhaka pakati pavanin'ina vababa vavo, sezvakanga zvarairwa naJehovha.

⁴and they draw near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, `Jehovah commanded Moses to give to us an inheritance in the midst of our brethren;` and he giveth to them, at the command of Jehovah, an inheritance in the midst of the brethren of their father.

⁵Manase akapiwa migove ine gumi, kunze kweGiriyadhi neBhashani mhiri kwaJoridhani;

⁵And ten portions fall [to] Manasseh, apart from the land of Gilead and Bashan, which [are] beyond the Jordan;

⁶nekuti vanasikana vaManase vakanga vane nhaka pakati pavanakomana vake; nyika yeGiriyadhi yakanga iri yavamwe vanakomana vaManase.

⁶for the daughters of Manasseh have inherited an inheritance in the midst of his sons, and the land of Gilead hath been to the sons of Manasseh who are left.

⁷Muganhu waManase wakabva kwaAsheri, ndokusvika paMikimetati, pamberi peShekemu; zvino muganhu ndokuenda kuruoko rworudyi, kusvikira kuvanhu vakanga vagere Eni-tapua.

⁷And the border of Manasseh is from Asher to Michmethah, which [is] on the front of Shechem, and the border hath gone on unto the right, unto the inhabitants of En-Tappuah.

⁸Nyika yeTapua yakanga iri yaManase; asi Tapua pamuganhu waManase rakanga riri guta ravana vaEfuremu.

⁸To Manasseh hath been the land of Tappuah, and Tappuah unto the border of Manasseh is to the sons of Ephraim.

⁹Zvino muganhu ndokuburuka kurukova Kana, nechezasi korukova; maguta iwayo akanga ari aEfuremu, pakati pamaguta aManase; muganhu waManase wakange uri nechokumusoro korukova, ndokuguma pagungwa.

⁹And the border hath come down [to] the brook of Kanah, southward of the brook; these cities of Ephraim [are] in the midst of the cities of Manasseh, and the border of Manasseh [is] on the north of the brook, and its outgoings are at the sea.

¹⁰Kurutivi rwezasi nyika yakanga iri yaEfuremu; kurutivi rwokumusoro yakanga iri yaManase; gungwa waiva muganhu wake; miganhu ikasvika kwaAsheri kumusoro, nokwaIsakari kumabvazuva.

¹⁰Southward [is] to Ephraim and northward to Manasseh, and the sea is his border, and in Asher they meet on the north, and in Issachar on the east.

¹¹Pakati palsakari naAsheri Manase wakange ane Bhetisheani nemisha yaro, neJibhireami nemisha yaro, navanhu vakanga vagere Dhori

¹¹And Manasseh hath in Issachar and in Asher, Beth-Shean and its towns, and Ibleam and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of En-Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, three counties.

¹²Asi vana vaManase vakanga vasingagoni kudzinga vanhu vakanga vagere mumaguta iwayo; asi vaKanani vakaramba vachida kugara panyika iyo.

¹²And the sons of Manasseh have not been able to occupy these cities, and the Canaanite is desirous to dwell in this land,

¹³Zvino vana vaIsiraeri vakati vava nesimba, vakaita vaKanani vabati vechibharo, havana kuvadzinga chose.

¹³and it cometh to pass when the sons of Israel have been strong, that they put the Canaanite to tribute, and have not utterly dispossessed him.

¹⁴Zvino vana vaJosefa vakataura naJoshua, vakati, Makatipireiko mugove mumwe chete nechikamu chimwe chete, kuti ive nhaka yedu, zvatiri vanhu vazhinji, nekuti Jehovha wakatiropafadza kusvikira zvino?

¹⁴And the sons of Joseph speak with Joshua, saying, `Wherefore hast thou given to me an inheritance — one lot and one portion, and I a numerous people? hitherto hath Jehovah blessed me.`

¹⁵Joshua akati kwavari, Kana muri vanhu vazhinji, endai henyu kudondo, mundozvitemera nzvimbo ipapo panyika yavaPerezi neyavaRefaimu; zvamusingakwaniri panyika yamakomo yaEfuremu.,

¹⁵And Joshua saith unto them, `If thou [art] a numerous people, go up for thee to the forest, then thou hast prepared for thee there, in the land of the Perizzite, and of the Rephaim, when mount Ephraim hath been narrow for thee.`

¹⁶Vana vaJosefa vakati, Nyika yamakomo haingatikwaniri; uye vaKanani vose vanogara munyika yomupata vane ngoro dzamatare, ivo vose vari paBhetisheani nemisha yaro, navari mumupata weJezireeri.

¹⁶And the sons of Joseph say, `The hill is not found to us, and a chariot of iron [is] with every Canaanite who is dwelling in the land of the valley — to him who [is] in Beth-Shean and its towns, and to him who [is] in the valley of Jezreel.`

¹⁷Zvino Joshua akataura naveimba yaJosefa, ivo vaEfuremu navaManase, akati, imwi muri vanhu vazhinji, mune simba guru, hamungavi nomugove mumwe chete;

¹⁷And Joshua speaketh unto the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, `Thou [art] a numerous people, and hast great power; thou hast not one lot [only],

¹⁸asi nyika yamakomo ichava yenyu; nekuti kunyange riri dondo, muchafanira kuritema, mabudiro aro ose agova enyu; nekuti munofanira kudzinga vaKanani, kunyange vane ngoro dzamatare, uye kunyange vane simba.

¹⁸because the mountain is thine; because it [is] a forest — thou hast prepared it, and its outgoings have been thine; because thou dost dispossess the Canaanite, though it hath chariots of iron — though it [is] strong.`
