The people in the family line of Joseph spoke to Joshua. They said,“ Why have you given us only one share of the land to have as our own? There are large numbers of us. The Lord has blessed us greatly.”

Then the people of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying,“ Why have you given me but one lot and one portion as an inheritance, although I am a numerous people, since all along the Lord has blessed me?”

The descendants of Joseph came to Joshua and asked,“ Why have you given us only one portion of land as our homeland when the Lord has blessed us with so many people?”

Joseph’s descendants said to Joshua,“ Why did you give us only one tribal allotment as an inheritance? We have many people, because the LORD has been blessing us greatly.”

Then the sons of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying,“ Why have you given me only one lot and one portion as an inheritance, though I am a numerous people whom the Lord has blessed up to this point?”

Then the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying,“ Why have you given us only one lot and one share to inherit, since we are a great people, inasmuch as the Lord has blessed us until now?”

And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one part for an inheritance, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as hitherto Jehovah hath blessed me?

Joseph’s descendants said to Joshua,“ Why did you give us only one tribal allotment as an inheritance? We have many people, because the Lord has been blessing us greatly.”

並且我從前用刀和弓從亞摩利人手裏奪取過來的那塊地、我也必賜給你，使你比眾弟兄多得一分。』

這些是瑪拿西的家族，其中被點閱的、有五萬二千七百人。以下這些是以法蓮的子孫：按他們的家族、屬書提拉的、有書提拉家族，屬比結的、有比結家族，屬他罕的、有他罕家族。以下這些人是書提拉的子孫：屬以蘭的、有以蘭家族。這些是以法蓮子孫的家族，按其中被點閱的、有三萬二千五百人。按他們的家族、這些都是約瑟的子孫。

約瑟是母牛的崽子，在水泉旁的母牛崽子；他的女兒踏步在書珥曠野。弓箭手苦害他，向他射箭，懷恨逼迫他。但他的弓仍然堅硬；他的手臂強健敏捷，這是因着雅各之大能者的手；（以色列的牧者、以色列的石頭是從那裏而出的，）因着你父親的上帝——他必幫助你，因着全能的上帝——他必賜福與你：必將上面來的天福，將伏於地底下的淵泉之福，將胸哺胎生之福、都賜給你。你父親所祝的福大有能力，勝過遠古之山，所施的福、和永遠之岡陵可愛之物：願這些福降到約瑟頭上，到那在弟兄中做王子者的頭頂上。

論約瑟是說：『願他的地蒙永恆主賜福，得天上甘露的佳果、以及伏於地底下的淵泉，得日頭曬熟的出產佳果，月月所產出的佳果，得往古之山的上品，永遠之岡陵的佳果，得地和充滿於地上的佳果，和那住刺叢中者的恩悅：願這些福都臨到約瑟頭上，到那在族弟兄中做王子者的頭頂上。他頭胎的公牛——威嚴屬於牠；牠的角是野牛的角，用來牴觸萬族之民，對地極也一概牴觸；這角是以法蓮的萬軍，那角是瑪拿西的千軍。』
