5 Now this was the territory of the sons of Ephraim according to their families: the border of their inheritance eastward was (A)Ataroth-addar, as far as upper Beth-horon. 6 Then the border went westward at (B)Michmethath on the north, and the border turned about eastward to Taanath-shiloh and continued beyond it to the east of Janoah. 7 It went down from Janoah to Ataroth and to (C)Naarah, then reached Jericho and came out at the Jordan. 8 From (D)Tappuah the border continued westward to the (a)brook of Kanah, and (b)it ended at the sea. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the sons of Ephraim according to their families, 9 together with the cities which were set apart for the sons of Ephraim in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.
