Now after{H310} the death{H4194} of Joshua{H3091} it came to pass, that the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} asked{H7592}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Who shall go up{H5927}{(H8799)} for us against the Canaanites{H3669} first{H8462}, to fight{H3898}{(H8736)} against them?

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Judah{H3063} shall go up{H5927}{(H8799)}: behold, I have delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} the land{H776} into his hand{H3027}.

And Judah{H3063} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Simeon{H8095} his brother{H251}, Come up{H5927}{(H8798)} with me into my lot{H1486}, that we may fight{H3898}{(H8735)} against the Canaanites{H3669}; and I likewise will go{H1980}{(H8804)} with thee into thy lot{H1486}. So Simeon{H8095} went{H3212}{(H8799)} with him.

And Judah{H3063} went up{H5927}{(H8799)}; and the LORD{H3068} delivered{H5414}{(H8799)} the Canaanites{H3669} and the Perizzites{H6522} into their hand{H3027}: and they slew{H5221}{(H8686)} of them in Bezek{H966} ten{H6235} thousand{H505} men{H376}.

And they found{H4672}{(H8799)} Adonibezek{H137} in Bezek{H966}: and they fought{H3898}{(H8735)} against him, and they slew{H5221}{(H8686)} the Canaanites{H3669} and the Perizzites{H6522}.

But Adonibezek{H137} fled{H5127}{(H8799)}; and they pursued{H7291}{(H8799)} after{H310} him, and caught{H270}{(H8799)} him, and cut off{H7112}{(H8762)} his thumbs{H931}{H3027} and his great toes{H7272}.

And Adonibezek{H137} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Threescore and ten{H7657} kings{H4428}, having their thumbs{H931}{H3027} and their great toes{H7272} cut off{H7112}{(H8794)}, gathered{H3950}{(H8764)} their meat under my table{H7979}: as I have done{H6213}{(H8804)}, so God{H430} hath requited{H7999}{(H8765)} me. And they brought{H935}{(H8686)} him to Jerusalem{H3389}, and there he died{H4191}{(H8799)}.

Now the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} had fought{H3898}{(H8735)} against Jerusalem{H3389}, and had taken{H3920}{(H8799)} it, and smitten{H5221}{(H8686)} it with the edge{H6310} of the sword{H2719}, and set{H7971}{(H8765)} the city{H5892} on fire{H784}.

And afterward{H310} the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} went down{H3381}{(H8804)} to fight{H3898}{(H8736)} against the Canaanites{H3669}, that dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in the mountain{H2022}, and in the south{H5045}, and in the valley{H8219}.

And Judah{H3063} went{H3212}{(H8799)} against the Canaanites{H3669} that dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in Hebron{H2275}:(now the name{H8034} of Hebron{H2275} before{H6440} was Kirjatharba{H7153}:) and they slew{H5221}{(H8686)} Sheshai{H8344}, and Ahiman{H289}, and Talmai{H8526}.

And from thence he went{H3212}{(H8799)} against the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Debir{H1688}: and the name{H8034} of Debir{H1688} before{H6440} was Kirjathsepher{H7158}:

And Caleb{H3612} said{H559}{(H8799)}, He that smiteth{H5221}{(H8686)} Kirjathsepher{H7158}, and taketh{H3920}{(H8804)} it, to him will I give{H5414}{(H8804)} Achsah{H5915} my daughter{H1323} to wife{H802}.

And Othniel{H6274} the son{H1121} of Kenaz{H7073}, Caleb's{H3612} younger{H6996} brother{H251}, took{H3920}{(H8799)} it: and he gave{H5414}{(H8799)} him Achsah{H5915} his daughter{H1323} to wife{H802}.

And it came to pass, when she came{H935}{(H8800)} to him, that she moved{H5496}{(H8686)} him to ask{H7592}{(H8800)} of her father{H1} a field{H7704}: and she lighted{H6795}{(H8799)} from off her ass{H2543}; and Caleb{H3612} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, What wilt thou?

And she said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Give{H3051}{(H8798)} me a blessing{H1293}: for thou hast given{H5414}{(H8804)} me a south{H5045} land{H776}; give{H5414}{(H8804)} me also springs{H1543} of water{H4325}. And Caleb{H3612} gave{H5414}{(H8799)} her the upper{H5942} springs{H1543} and the nether{H8482} springs{H1543}.

And the children{H1121} of the Kenite{H7017}, Moses{H4872}' father in law{H2859}{(H8802)}, went up{H5927}{(H8804)} out of the city{H5892} of palm trees{H8558}{(H8677)}{H5899} with the children{H1121} of Judah{H3063} into the wilderness{H4057} of Judah{H3063}, which lieth in the south{H5045} of Arad{H6166}; and they went{H3212}{(H8799)} and dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} among{H854} the people{H5971}.

And Judah{H3063} went{H3212}{(H8799)} with Simeon{H8095} his brother{H251}, and they slew{H5221}{(H8686)} the Canaanites{H3669} that inhabited{H3427}{(H8802)} Zephath{H6857}, and utterly destroyed{H2763}{(H8686)} it. And the name{H8034} of the city{H5892} was called{H7121}{(H8799)} Hormah{H2767}.

Also Judah{H3063} took{H3920}{(H8799)} Gaza{H5804} with the coast{H1366} thereof, and Askelon{H831} with the coast{H1366} thereof, and Ekron{H6138} with the coast{H1366} thereof.

And the LORD{H3068} was with Judah{H3063}; and he drave out{H3423}{(H8686)} the inhabitants of the mountain{H2022}; but could not{H3808} drive out{H3423}{(H8687)} the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of the valley{H6010}, because they had chariots{H7393} of iron{H1270}.

And they gave{H5414}{(H8799)} Hebron{H2275} unto Caleb{H3612}, as Moses{H4872} said{H1696}{(H8765)}: and he expelled{H3423}{(H8686)} thence the three{H7969} sons{H1121} of Anak{H6061}.

And the children{H1121} of Benjamin{H1144} did not drive out{H3423}{(H8689)} the Jebusites{H2983} that inhabited{H3427}{(H8802)} Jerusalem{H3389}; but the Jebusites{H2983} dwell{H3427}{(H8799)} with the children{H1121} of Benjamin{H1144} in Jerusalem{H3389} unto this day{H3117}.

And the house{H1004} of Joseph{H3130}, they also went up{H5927}{(H8799)} against Bethel{H1008}: and the LORD{H3068} was with them.

And the house{H1004} of Joseph{H3130} sent to descry{H8446}{(H8686)} Bethel{H1008}.(Now the name{H8034} of the city{H5892} before{H6440} was Luz{H3870}.)

And the spies{H8104}{(H8802)} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} a man{H376} come forth{H3318}{(H8802)} out of the city{H5892}, and they said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Shew{H7200}{(H8685)} us, we pray thee, the entrance{H3996} into the city{H5892}, and we will shew{H6213}{(H8804)} thee mercy{H2617}.

And when he shewed{H7200}{(H8686)} them the entrance{H3996} into the city{H5892}, they smote{H5221}{(H8686)} the city{H5892} with the edge{H6310} of the sword{H2719}; but they let go{H7971}{(H8765)} the man{H376} and all his family{H4940}.

And the man{H376} went{H3212}{(H8799)} into the land{H776} of the Hittites{H2850}, and built{H1129}{(H8799)} a city{H5892}, and called{H7121}{(H8799)} the name{H8034} thereof Luz{H3870}: which is the name{H8034} thereof unto this day{H3117}.

Neither did Manasseh{H4519} drive out{H3423}{(H8689)} the inhabitants of Bethshean{H1052} and her towns{H1323}, nor Taanach{H8590} and her towns{H1323}, nor the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Dor{H1756} and her towns{H1323}, nor the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Ibleam{H2991} and her towns{H1323}, nor the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Megiddo{H4023} and her towns{H1323}: but the Canaanites{H3669} would{H2974}{(H8686)} dwell{H3427}{(H8800)} in that land{H776}.

And it came to pass, when Israel{H3478} was strong{H2388}{(H8804)}, that they put{H7760}{(H8799)} the Canaanites{H3669} to tribute{H4522}, and did not utterly{H3423}{(H8687)} drive them out{H3423}{(H8689)}.

Neither did Ephraim{H669} drive out{H3423}{(H8689)} the Canaanites{H3669} that dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in Gezer{H1507}; but the Canaanites{H3669} dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} in Gezer{H1507} among{H7130} them.

Neither did Zebulun{H2074} drive out{H3423}{(H8689)} the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Kitron{H7003}, nor the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Nahalol{H5096}; but the Canaanites{H3669} dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} among{H7130} them, and became tributaries{H4522}.

Neither did Asher{H836} drive out{H3423}{(H8689)} the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Accho{H5910}, nor the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Zidon{H6721}, nor of Ahlab{H303}, nor of Achzib{H392}, nor of Helbah{H2462}, nor of Aphik{H663}, nor of Rehob{H7340}:

But the Asherites{H843} dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} among{H7130} the Canaanites{H3669}, the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of the land{H776}: for they did not drive them out{H3423}{(H8689)}.

Neither did Naphtali{H5321} drive out{H3423}{(H8689)} the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Bethshemesh{H1053}, nor the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Bethanath{H1043}; but he dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} among{H7130} the Canaanites{H3669}, the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of the land{H776}: nevertheless the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Bethshemesh{H1053} and of Bethanath{H1043} became tributaries{H4522} unto them.

And the Amorites{H567} forced{H3905}{(H8799)} the children{H1121} of Dan{H1835} into the mountain{H2022}: for they would not suffer{H5414}{(H8804)} them to come down{H3381}{(H8800)} to the valley{H6010}:

But the Amorites{H567} would{H2974}{(H8686)} dwell{H3427}{(H8800)} in mount{H2022} Heres{H2776} in Aijalon{H357}, and in Shaalbim{H8169}: yet the hand{H3027} of the house{H1004} of Joseph{H3130} prevailed{H3513}{(H8799)}, so that they became tributaries{H4522}.

And the coast{H1366} of the Amorites{H567} was from the going up{H4608} to Akrabbim{H4610}, from the rock{H5553}, and upward{H4605}.
