Joshua 17:17-18

New English Translation

¹⁷ Joshua said to the family^[a] of Joseph—to both Ephraim and Manasseh: “You have many people and great military strength. You will not have just one tribal allotment. ¹⁸ The whole hill country^[b] will be yours; though it is a forest, you can clear it, and it will be entirely yours.^[c] You can conquer the Canaanites, though they have chariots with iron-rimmed wheels and are strong.”
