[22] And Ephraim their father mourned many days, and his brethren came to comfort him. [23] And when he went in to his wife, she conceived, and bare a son, and he called his name Beriah, because it went evil with his house. [24] (And his daughter was Sherah, who built Bethhoron the nether, and the upper, and Uzzensherah.) [25] And Rephah was his son, also Resheph, and Telah his son, and Tahan his son, [26] Laadan his son, Ammihud his son, Elishama his son, [27] Non his son, Jehoshua his son. [28] And their possessions and habitations were, Bethel and the towns thereof, and eastward Naaran, and westward Gezer, with the towns thereof; Shechem also and the towns thereof, unto Gaza and the towns thereof: [29] And by the borders of the children of Manasseh, Bethshean and her towns, Taanach and her towns, Megiddo and her towns, Dor and her towns. In these dwelt the children of Joseph the son of Israel.

These are the sons of Ephraim after their families: of Shuthelah, the family of the Shuthalhites: of Becher, the family of the Bachrites: of Tahan, the family of the Tahanites.

For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gave no part unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance.

So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.

And the rest of the children of Kohath had by lot out of the families of the tribe of Ephraim, and out of the tribe of Dan, and out of the half tribe of Manasseh, ten cities.

The sons of Joseph after their families were Manasseh and Ephraim.
