Judges 1:1-3

1After Joshua’s death the Israelites asked the Lord, “Who will go first to fight the Canaanites for us?”

2The Lord answered, “Judah’s troops will go first. I am about to hand the Canaanites over to you.”

3The tribe of Judah said to the tribe of Simeon, “Come with us into the territory given to us when we drew lots, and together we will fight the people of Canaan. Then we’ll go with you into your territory.” So the tribe of Simeon went along with Judah.
