Judges 1:22-29

22And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel; and Jehovah was with them.

23And the house of Joseph sent to search out Bethel; now the name of the city before was Luz.

24And the guards saw a man come forth out of the city, and said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, how [we] may enter into the city, and we will shew thee kindness.

25And he shewed them how to enter into the city. And they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.

26And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.

27And Manasseh did not dispossess Beth-shean and its dependent villages, nor Taanach and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its dependent villages; and the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

28And it came to pass when Israel became strong, that they made the Canaanites tributary; but they did not utterly dispossess them.

29And Ephraim did not dispossess the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among them in Gezer.
