Joshua 17:7-13

7And the landH1366 of ManassehH4519 was from AsherH836 to MichmethahH4366, that lieth beforeH6440 ShechemH7927; and the borderH1366 went alongH1980 on the right handH3225 to the inhabitantsH3427 of EntappuahH5887. 8Now ManassehH4519 had the landH776 of TappuahH8599: but TappuahH8599 on the borderH1366 of ManassehH4519 belonged to the childrenH1121 of EphraimH669; 9And the borderH1366 descendedH3381 to the riverH5158 KanahH7071, southwardH5045 of the riverH5158: these citiesH5892 of EphraimH669 are amongH8432 the citiesH5892 of ManassehH4519: the borderH1366 of ManassehH4519 also was on the north sideH6828 of the riverH5158, and the endsH8444 of it were at the seaH3220:1 10SouthwardH5045 it was Ephraim’sH669, and northwardH6828 it was Manasseh’sH4519, and the seaH3220 is his borderH1366; and they met togetherH6293 in AsherH836 on the northH6828, and in IssacharH3485 on the eastH4217. 11And ManassehH4519 had in IssacharH3485 and in AsherH836 BethsheanH1052 and its townsH1323, and IbleamH2991 and its townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427 of DorH1756 and its townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427 of EndorH5874 and its townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427 of TaanachH8590 and its townsH1323, and the inhabitantsH3427 of MegiddoH4023 and its townsH1323, even threeH7969 countriesH5316. 12Yet the childrenH1121 of ManassehH4519 couldH3201 not drive outH3423 the inhabitants of those citiesH5892; but the CanaanitesH3669 wouldH2974 dwellH3427 in that landH776. 13Yet it came to pass, when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had become strongH2388, that they subjectedH5414 the CanaanitesH3669 to forced labourH4522; but did not utterlyH3423 drive them outH3423.
