20 The sons of Ephraim: Shuthelah, and Bered his son, and Tahath his son, and Eleadah his son, and Tahath his son,
21 and Zabad his son, and Shuthelah his son, and Ezer, and Elead, whom the men of Gath who were born in the land killed, because they came down to take away their cattle.
22 Ephraim their father mourned many days, and his brothers came to comfort him.
23 He went in to his wife, and she conceived, and bore a son, and he named him Beriah, because it went evil with his house.
24 His daughter was Sheerah, who built Beth-horon the lower and the upper, and Uzzen-sheerah.
25 Rephah was his son, and Resheph, and Telah his son, and Tahan his son,
26 Ladan his son, Ammihud his son, Elishama his son,
27 Nun his son, Joshua his son.
28 Their possessions and habitations were Bethel and the towns of it, and eastward Naaran, and westward Gezer, with the towns of it; Shechem also and the towns of it, to Azzah and the towns of it;
29 and by the borders of the children of Manasseh, Beth-shean and its towns, Taanach and its towns, Megiddo and its towns, Dor and its towns. In these lived the children of Joseph the son of Israel.
