- And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from Jordan by Jericho, unto the water of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho throughout mount Bethel,
- And goeth out from Bethel to Luz, and passeth along unto the borders of Archi to Ataroth,
- And goeth down westward to the coast of Japhleti, unto the coast of Bethhoron the nether, and to Gezer; and the goings out thereof are at the sea.
- So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
- And the border of the children of Ephraim according to their families was thus: even the border of their inheritance on the east side was Atarothaddar, unto Bethhoron the upper;

- The allotment for Joseph began at the Jordan of Jericho, east of the waters of Jericho, and went up from there through the desert into the hill country of Bethel.
- It went on from Bethel (that is, Luz), crossed over to the territory of the Arkites in Ataroth,
- descended westward to the territory of the Japhletites as far as the region of Lower Beth Horon and on to Gezer, ending at the sea.
- So Manasseh and Ephraim, the descendants of Joseph, received their inheritance.
- This was the territory of Ephraim, clan by clan: The boundary of their inheritance went from Ataroth Addar in the east to Upper Beth Horon
