Joshua 16:3 in Context — Joshua 16

1 La part échue par le sort aux fils de Joseph s’étendait depuis le Jourdain près de Jéricho, vers les eaux de Jéricho, à l’orient. La limite suivait le désert qui s’élève de Jéricho à Béthel par la montagne.

2 Elle continuait de Béthel à Luz, et passait vers la frontière des Arkiens par Atharoth.

3 Puis elle descendait à l’occident vers la frontière des Japhléthiens jusqu’à celle de Beth-Horon la basse et jusqu’à Guézer, pour aboutir à la mer.

4 C’est là que reçurent leur héritage les fils de Joseph, Manassé et Éphraïm.

5 Voici les limites des fils d’Éphraïm, selon leurs familles. La limite de leur héritage était, à l’orient, Atharoth-Addar jusqu’à Beth-Horon la haute.
