Judges 1:19-36

19And Jehovah wasH1961 with JudahH3063; and he tookH3423 possessionH3423 of the hill-country, for he did not dispossessH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of the valleyH6010, because they had chariotsH7393 of ironH1270. 20And they gaveH5414 to CalebH3612 HebronH2275, as MosesH4872 had saidH1696; and he dispossessedH3423 from thence the threeH7969 sonsH1121 of Anak. 21And the children of BenjaminH1144 did not dispossessH3423 the Jebusites, the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; but the Jebusites dwellH3427 with the children of BenjaminH1144 in JerusalemH3389 to this dayH3117. 22And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, they alsoH1571 wentH5927 up against Bethel; and Jehovah was with them. 23And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 sent to search out Bethel; now the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 before was LuzH3870. 24And the guardsH8104 sawH7200 a manH376 comeH3318 forthH3318 out of the cityH5892, and saidH559 unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, how [we] may enter into the cityH5892, and we will shew thee kindness. 25And he shewed them how to enter into the cityH5892. And they smote the cityH5892 with the edge of the swordH2719; but they let goH7971 the manH376 and all his familyH4940. 26And the manH376 went into the landH776 of the HittitesH2850, and builtH1129 a cityH5892, and calledH7121 its nameH8034 LuzH3870, which is its nameH8034 to this dayH3117. 27And ManassehH4519 did not dispossessH3423 Beth-sheanH1052 and its dependent villages, nor TaanachH8590 and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of DorH1756 and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of IbleamH2991 and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of MegiddoH4023 and its dependent villages; and the CanaanitesH3669 would dwellH3427 in that landH776. 28And it came to pass when IsraelH3478 becameH1961 strongH2388, that they madeH7760 the CanaanitesH3669 tributary; but they did not utterly dispossessH3423 them. 29And EphraimH669 did not dispossessH3423 the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in GezerH1507; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 among them in GezerH1507. 30ZebulunH2074 did not dispossessH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of Kitron, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of Nahalol; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 among them, and becameH1961 tributaries. 31AsherH836 did not dispossessH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of Accho, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of Zidon, nor Ahlab, nor Achzib, nor Helbah, nor Aphik, nor RehobH7340; 32and the Asherites dweltH3427 among the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776; for they did not dispossessH3423 them. 33NaphtaliH5321 did not dispossessH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth-shemeshH1053, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth-anathH1043; and he dweltH3427 among the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, but the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth-shemeshH1053 and of Beth-anathH1043 becameH1961 tributaries to them. 34And the AmoritesH567 forced the children of DanH1835 into the hill-country, for they would not suffer them to comeH3381 down to the valleyH6010. 35And the AmoritesH567 would dwellH3427 on mount HeresH2776, in Ajalon and in ShaalbimH8169; but the handH3027 of the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 prevailed, and they becameH1961 tributaries. 36And the borderH1366 of the AmoritesH567 was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rockH5553, and upwardsH4605.
