Joshua 16:5–9 · Berean Standard Bible

5 This was the territory of the descendants of Ephraim by their clans: The border of their inheritance went from Ataroth-addar in the east to Upper Beth-horon

6 and out toward the Sea. From Michmethath on the north it turned eastward toward Taanath-shiloh and passed by it to Janoah on the east.

7 From Janoah it went down to Ataroth and Naarah, and then reached Jericho and came out at the Jordan.

8 From Tappuah the border went westward to the Brook of Kanah and ended at the Sea. This was the inheritance of the clans of the tribe of Ephraim,

9 along with all the cities and villages set apart for the descendants of Ephraim within the inheritance of Manasseh.
