Judges 1:19-36
19And YhwhH3068 was with JudahH3063; and he drave outH3423 the inhabitants of the mountainH2022; but could notH3808 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of the valleyH6010, because they had chariotsH7393 of ironH1270.1 20And they gaveH5414 HebronH2275 unto CalebH3612, as MosesH4872 saidH1696: and he expelledH3423 thence the threeH7969 sonsH1121 of AnakH6061. 21And the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 did not drive outH3423 the JebusitesH2983 that inhabitedH3427 JerusalemH3389; but the JebusitesH2983 dwellH3427 with the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 in JerusalemH3389 unto this dayH3117.
22And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, they also went upH5927 against Beth–elH1008: And YhwhH3068 was with them. 23And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 sent to descryH8446 Beth–elH1008. (Now the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 beforeH6440 was LuzH3870.) 24And the spiesH8104 sawH7200 a manH376 come forthH3318 out of the cityH5892, and they saidH559 unto him, ShewH7200 us, we pray thee, the entranceH3996 into the cityH5892, and we will shewH6213 thee mercyH2617. 25And when he shewedH7200 them the entranceH3996 into the cityH5892, they smoteH5221 the cityH5892 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719; but they let goH7971 the manH376 and all his familyH4940. 26And the manH376 wentH3212 into the landH776 of the HittitesH2850, and builtH1129 a cityH5892, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 thereof LuzH3870: which is the nameH8034 thereof unto this dayH3117.
27Neither did ManassehH4519 drive outH3423 the inhabitants of Beth–sheanH1052 and her townsH1323, nor TaanachH8590 and her townsH1323, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of DorH1756 and her townsH1323, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of IbleamH2991 and her townsH1323, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of MegiddoH4023 and her townsH1323: but the CanaanitesH3669 wouldH2974 dwellH3427 in that landH776. 28And it came to pass, when IsraelH3478 was strongH2388, that they putH7760 the CanaanitesH3669 to tributeH4522, and did not utterlyH3423 drive them outH3423.
29Neither did EphraimH669 drive outH3423 the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in GezerH1507; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 in GezerH1507 amongH7130 them.
30Neither did ZebulunH2074 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of KitronH7003, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of NahalolH5096; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 amongH7130 them, and became tributariesH4522.
31Neither did AsherH836 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of AcchoH5910, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of SidonH6721, nor of AhlabH303, nor of AchzibH392, nor of HelbahH2462, nor of AphikH663, nor of RehobH7340: 32But the AsheritesH843 dweltH3427 amongH7130 the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: for they did not drive them outH3423.
33Neither did NaphtaliH5321 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth–shemeshH1053, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth–anathH1043; but he dweltH3427 amongH7130 the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: nevertheless the inhabitantsH3427 of Beth–shemeshH1053 and of Beth–anathH1043 became tributariesH4522 unto them. 34And the AmoritesH567 forcedH3905 the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 into the mountainH2022: for they would not sufferH5414 them to come downH3381 to the valleyH6010: 35But the AmoritesH567 wouldH2974 dwellH3427 in mountH2022 HeresH2776 in AijalonH357, and in ShaalbimH8169: yet the handH3027 of the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 prevailedH3513, so that they became tributariesH4522.2 36And the coastH1366 of the AmoritesH567 was from the going upH4608 to AkrabbimH4610, from the rockH5553, and upwardH4605.3
