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 tragedy had come to his house.

24 His daughter was Sheerah, who built Lower and Upper Beth Horon, and Uzzen Sheerah.

25 Rephah was his son, and Resheph his son, 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 its towns, and eastward Naaran, and westward Gezer, with its towns; Shechem also and its towns, to Ayyah and its towns;

29 and by the borders of the people of Manasseh, Beth Shean and its towns, Taanach and its towns, Ibleam and its towns, Megiddo and its towns, Dor and its towns. In these lived the people of Joseph the son of Israel.
