Joshua 17 1 There 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 . Copy 2 There 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 . Copy 3 But 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 . Copy 4 And 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 5 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh , beside the land of Gilead and Bashan , which were on the other side Jordan ; Copy 6 Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons : and the rest of Manasseh’s sons had the land of Gilead . Copy 7 And 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 En–tappuah . Copy 8 Now Manasseh had the land of Tappuah : but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim ; Copy 9 And 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 : Copy 10 Southward 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 . Copy 11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Beth–shean 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 . Copy 12 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities ; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land . Copy 13 Yet 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 . Copy 14 And 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 ? Copy 15 And 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. Copy 16 And 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 Beth–shean and her towns , and they who are of the valley of Jezreel . Copy 17 And 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: Copy 18 But 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 .
