18. Also Judah took Gaza with the border thereof, and Ashkelon with the border thereof, and Ekron with the border thereof.

20. And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses had spoken: and he drove out thence the three sons of Anak.
21. And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day.
22. And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el; and Jehovah was with them.
23. And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Beth-el. (Now the name of the city beforetime was Luz.)
24. And the watchers saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with thee.
25. And he showed them the entrance into the city; and they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man go and all his family.
26. And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz, which is the name thereof unto this day.
27. And Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its towns, nor of Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28. And it came to pass, when Israel was waxed strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, and did not utterly drive them out.
29. And Ephraim drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
