Joshua 16

"

And goeth out from Beth–el 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 Beth–horon 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 Ataroth–addar, unto Beth–horon the upper;

"
"

And the border went out toward the sea to Michmethah on the north side; and the border went about eastward unto Taanath–shiloh, and passed by it on the east to Janohah;

"
"

And it went down from Janohah to Ataroth, and to Naarath, and came to Jericho, and went out at Jordan.

"
"

The 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.

"
"

And the separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.

"
"

And they drave not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: but the Canaanites dwell among the Ephraimites unto this day, and serve under tribute.
