OET (OET-LV) And_it_goes_down the_border the_wadi_of Kanah south_to_the to_wadi cities the_these belonged_to_ʼEfrayim in_the_middle the_cities_of Mənashsheh and_the_border_of Mənashsheh was_from_the_north_of wadi extremities_of_its and_he/it_was to_the_sea.

OET (OET-RV) Then the border went south to the Kanah riverbed—the cities there belonged to Efrayim even though they were inside Menashsheh’s land—then the border stayed on the north side of the riverbed and extended to the Mediterranean.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 16:1–17:18 The clans of Ephraim and Manasseh received their land

This section describes the boundaries of the land given to Ephraim and to Manasseh, and the towns within each of their lands.

17:9b

There were cities belonging to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh,

17:9a-b

From there the border continued southward to the Brook of Kanah. There were cities belonging to Ephraim among the cities of Manasseh: There is an interpretation issue in this verse. Scholars do not agree on how the word southward relates to the parts of this verse.

  1. It relates to the phrase the cities in verse 9b. For example:

    These cities, to the south of the brook… (ESV) (ESV, RSV, NABRE, NJPS, NLT, GNT, CEV, KJV)

  2. It relates to the term border in verse 9a. For example:

    Then the boundary continued south to the Kanah Ravine (NIV) (BSB, NIV, NET, GW)

It is recommended that you follow interpretation (1) along with the majority of English versions and some commentaries.Woudstra, p. 266. The border of Manasseh went south of the Kanah River for some distance. However, there were some towns belonging to the clan of Ephraim that were within the borders of the land assigned to Manasseh.

Here is another way to translate this part of the verse:

Some towns that belonged to the clan of Ephraim were south of the river, among the towns that belonged to the clan of Manasseh

17:9a

From there the border continued southward to the Brook of Kanah.

From there the border continued southward to the Brook of Kanah: You should translate the phrase the Brook of Kanah the same way as you translated it in Joshua 16:8.

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

Then the border descended to the southwest to the Kanah River

The border then continued south downhill to the Kanah streambed

17:9c

but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook and ended at the Sea.

but the border of Manasseh was on the north side of the brook and ended at the Sea: Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

The border of Manasseh’s land continued westward on the north side of the river and ended at the Mediterranean Sea

Then the boundary line of Manasseh’s land went along the northern side of the river, and it ended at the Mediterranean Sea

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

וַ⁠יְהִ֥י תֹצְאֹתָ֖י⁠ו הַ⁠יָּֽמָּ⁠ה

and=he/it_was extremities_of,its to,the,sea

As the Introduction to Joshua discusses, when the author says seaward, typically he means the Mediterranean Sea (known as the Great Sea). You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [and the border ended at the Great Sea]
