  ¹This was the lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph. As for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
  ²So this was for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, for the children of Helek, for the children of Asriel, for the children of Shechem, for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida. These were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.

Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher and Shemida are in both lists, and where Numbers 26:30 names Iezer first, Joshua 17:2 names Abiezer first; the two names differ in both editions. This collection does not merge the differently written names: it records Iezer and Abiezer apart and does not decide whether they are the same man.
