Judges 1:27-36
27At that time ManassehH4519 failedH3808 to drive out the inhabitantsH3423 of Beth-sheanH1052, TaanachH8590, DorH1756, IbleamH2991, MegiddoH4023, and their villagesH1323; for the CanaanitesH3669 were determinedH2974 to dwellH3427 in thatH2063 landH776. 28WhenH3588 IsraelH3478 became strongerH2388, they pressedH7760 the CanaanitesH3669 into forced laborH4522, but they neverH3808 drove them outH3423 completelyH3423.
29EphraimH669 also failedH3808 to drive outH3423 the CanaanitesH3669 livingH3427 in GezerH1507; so the CanaanitesH3669 continued to dwellH3427 among themH7130 in GezerH1507.
30ZebulunH2074 failedH3808 to drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of KitronH7003 and NahalolH5096; so the CanaanitesH3669 livedH3427 among themH7130 and servedH1961 as forced laborersH4522.
31AsherH836 failedH3808 to drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of AccoH5910, SidonH6721, AhlabH303, AchzibH392, HelbahH2462, AphikH663, andH853 RehobH7340. 32So the AsheritesH843 livedH3427 amongH7130 the CanaaniteH3669 inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, becauseH3588 they did notH3808 drive them outH3423.
33NaphtaliH5321 failedH3808 to drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth-shemeshH1053 andH853 Beth-anathH1043. So the Naphtalites also livedH3427 amongH7130 the CanaaniteH3669 inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, but the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth-shemeshH1053 and Beth-anathH1043 servedH1961 them as forced laborersH4522.
34The AmoritesH567 forcedH3905 the DanitesH1121H1835 into the hill countryH2022 andH3588 did notH3808 allow themH5414 to come downH3381 into the plainH6010. 35And the AmoritesH567 were determinedH2974 to dwellH3427 in MountH2022 HeresH2776, AijalonH357, and ShaalbimH8169. But when the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 grewH3513 in strengthH3027, they pressed the AmoritesH1961 into forced laborH4522. 36And the borderH1366 of the AmoritesH567 extended from the AscentH4610 of AkrabbimH46101 to SelaH5554 and beyondH4605.
