Joshua 16:3-8
New American Standard Bible
4The sons of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, received their inheritance.
5Now this was the territory of the sons of Ephraim according to their families: the border of their inheritance eastward was Ataroth-addar, as far as upper Beth-horon.
6Then the border went westward at Michmethath on the north, and the border turned eastward to Taanath-shiloh and continued beyond it to the east of Janoah.
7Then it went down from Janoah to Ataroth and to Naarah, then reached Jericho and came out at the Jordan.
8From Tappuah the border continued westward to the brook of Kanah, and it ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim according to their families,
King James Version
Chapter 16
3And 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. 4So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.
5And 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;
6And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanathshiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;
7And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.
8The border went out from Tappuah westward unto the river Kanah; and the goings out thereof were at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim by their families.

3It then descended westward to the border of the Japhletites as far as the border of Lower Beth-horon, then to Gezer, and ended at the Mediterranean Sea. 4So Ephraim and Manasseh, the sons of Joseph, received their inheritance.
5This was the territory of the descendants of Ephraim by their clans:The border of their inheritance went from Ataroth-addar on the east to Upper Beth-horon.

7From Janoah it descended to Ataroth and Naarah, and then reached Jericho and went to the Jordan.
