1 The lot that fell to the Josephites extended from the Jordan at Jericho to the waters of Jericho east of the wilderness; then the boundary went up from Jericho to the heights at Bethel.
2 Leaving Bethel for Luz, it crossed the ridge to the border of the Archites at Ataroth,
3 and descended westward to the border of the Japhletites, to that of the Lower Beth-horon, and to Gezer, and from there to the sea.
4 Within the heritage of Manasseh and Ephraim, sons of Joseph,
5 the dividing line for the heritage of the Ephraimites by their clans ran from east of Ataroth-addar to Upper Beth-horon
6 and thence to the sea. From Michmethath on the north, their boundary curved eastward around Taanath-shiloh, and continued east of it to Janoah;
7 from there it descended to Ataroth and Naarah, and reaching Jericho, it ended at the Jordan.
