1
Now it came
about after
the death
of Joshua
that the sons
of Israel
inquired
of the LORD,
saying,
"Who
shall go
up first
for us against
the Canaanites,
to fight
against them?"
2
The LORD
said,
"Judah
shall go
up; behold,
I have given
the land
into his hand."
3
Then Judah
said
to Simeon
his brother,
"Come
up with me into the territory
allotted
me, that we may fight
against the Canaanites;
and I in turn
will go
with you into the territory
allotted
you." So Simeon
went
with him.
4
Judah
went
up, and the LORD
gave
the Canaanites
and the Perizzites
into their hands,
and they defeated
ten
thousand
men
at Bezek.
5
They found
Adoni-bezek
in Bezek
and fought
against him, and they defeated
the Canaanites
and the Perizzites.
6
But Adoni-bezek
fled;
and they pursued
him and caught
him and cut off
his thumbs and big toes.
7
Adoni-bezek
said,
"Seventy
kings
with their thumbs and their big toes
cut off
used to gather
up scraps under
my table;
as I have done,
so
God
has repaid
me." So they brought
him to Jerusalem
and he died
there.
8
Then the sons
of Judah
fought
against Jerusalem
and captured
it and struck
it with the edge
of the sword
and set
the city
on fire.
9
Afterward
the sons
of Judah
went down
to fight
against the Canaanites
living
in the hill country
and in the Negev
and in the lowland.
10
So Judah
went
against
the Canaanites
who lived
in Hebron
(now the name
of Hebron
formerly
was Kiriath-arba);
and they struck
Sheshai
and Ahiman
and Talmai.
11
Then from there
he went
against
the inhabitants
of Debir
(now the name
of Debir
formerly
was Kiriath-sepher).
12
And Caleb
said,
"The one who
attacks
Kiriath-sepher
and captures
it, I will even give
him my daughter
Achsah
for a wife."
13
Othniel
the son
of Kenaz,
Caleb's
younger
brother,
captured
it; so he gave
him his daughter
Achsah
for a wife.
14
Then it came
about when she came
to him, that she persuaded
him to ask
her father
for a field.
Then she alighted
from her donkey,
and Caleb
said
to her, "What
do you want?"
15
She said
to him, "Give
me a blessing,
since
you have
give
n
me the land
of the Negev,
give
me also
springs
of water."
So Caleb
gave
her the upper
springs
and the lower
springs
.
16
The descendants
of the Kenite,
Moses'
father-in-law,
went
up from the city
of palms
with the sons
of Judah
,
to the wilderness
of Judah
which
is in the south
of Arad;
and they
went
and lived
with the people.
17
Then Judah
went
with Simeon
his brother,
and they struck
the Canaanites
living
in Zephath,
and utterly destroyed
it. So the name
of the city
was called
Hormah.
18
And Judah
took
Gaza
with its territory
and Ashkelon
with its territory
and Ekron
with its territory
.
19
Now the LORD
was with Judah,
and they took
possession
of the hill country;
but they could not drive
out the inhabitants
of the valley
because
they had iron
chariots.
20
Then they gave
Hebron
to Caleb,
as Moses
had promised;
and he drove
out from there
the three
sons
of Anak.
21
But the sons
of Benjamin
did not drive
out the Jebusites
who lived
in Jerusalem
;
so the Jebusites
have lived
with the sons
of Benjamin
in Jerusalem
to this
day.
22
Likewise the house
of Joseph
went
up against Bethel,
and the LORD
was with them.
23
The house
of Joseph
spied
out Bethel
(now the name
of the city
was formerly
Luz).
24
The spies
saw
a man
coming
out of the city
and they said
to him, "Please
show
us the entrance
to the city
and we will treat
you kindly."
25
So he showed
them the entrance
to
the city
,
and they struck
the city
with the edge
of the sword,
but they let
the man
and all
his family
go free.
26
The man
went
into the land
of the Hittites
and built
a city
and named
it Luz
which
is its name
to this
day.
27
But Manasseh
did not take possession
of Beth-shean
and its villages,
or Taanach
and its villages,
or the inhabitants
of Dor
and its villages,
or the inhabitants
of Ibleam
and its villages,
or the inhabitants
of Megiddo
and its villages;
so the Canaanites
persisted
in living
in that land.
28
It came
about when
Israel
became strong,
that they put
the Canaanites
to forced labor,
but they did not drive
them out completely.
29
Ephraim
did not drive
out the Canaanites
who were living
in Gezer
;
so the Canaanites
lived
in Gezer
among
them.
30
Zebulun
did not drive
out the inhabitants
of Kitron,
or the inhabitants
of Nahalol;
so the Canaanites
lived
among
them and became
subject to forced labor.
31
Asher
did not drive
out the inhabitants
of Acco,
or the inhabitants
of Sidon,
or of Ahlab,
or of Achzib,
or of Helbah,
or of Aphik,
or of Rehob.
32
So the Asherites
lived
among
the Canaanites,
the inhabitants
of the land;
for they did not drive
them out.
33
Naphtali
did not drive
out
the inhabitants
of Beth-shemesh
,
or
the inhabitants
of Beth-anath,
but lived
among
the Canaanites,
the inhabitants
of the land;
and
the inhabitants
of Beth-shemesh
and Beth-anath
became
forced labor
for them.
34
Then the Amorites
forced
the sons
of Dan
into the hill country,
for they did not allow
them to come down
to the valley;
35
yet the Amorites
persisted
in living
in Mount
Heres,
in Aijalon
and in Shaalbim;
but when the power
of the house
of Joseph
grew strong,
they became
forced labor.
36
The border
of the Amorites
ran from the ascent of Akrabbim,
from Sela
and upward.
