And the lot for the tribe of Manasseh was, for, he, was the firstborn of Joseph,—as for Machir, the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because, he, was a man of war, therefore had he Gilead and Bashan.
Out of Ephraim, came down they whose root was in Amalek, After thee, Benjamin, among thy tribes,—Out of Machir, had come down governors, And, out of Zebulun, such as bear aloft the staff of the marshal;
and they enfeebled and oppressed the sons of Israel in that year,—eighteen years, did they this unto all the sons of Israel who were beyond the Jordan, in the land of the Amorites, that was in Gilead.
