and the lord said judah shall go up behold i have delivered the land into his hand

and judah said unto simeon his brother come up with me into my lot that we may fight against the canaanites and i likewise will go with thee into thy lot so simeon went

and judah went up and the lord delivered the canaanites and the perizzites into their hand and they slew of them in bezek ten thousand men

and they found adonibezek in bezek and they fought against him and they slew the canaanites and the perizzites

but adonibezek fled and they pursued after him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and his great toes

and adonibezek said threescore and ten kings having their thumbs and their great toes cut off gathered their meat under my table as i have done so god hath requited me and they brought him to jerusalem and there he died

and afterward the children of judah went down to fight against the canaanites that dwelt in the mountain and in the south and in the valley

and judah went against the canaanites that dwelt in hebron now the name of hebron before was kirjatharba and they slew sheshai and ahiman and talmai

and caleb said he that smiteth kirjathsepher and taketh it to him will i give achsah my daughter to wife

and othniel the son of kenaz calebs younger brother took it and he gave him achsah his daughter to wife

and it came to pass when she came to him that she moved him to ask of her father a field and she lighted from off her ass and caleb said

and she said unto him give me a blessing for thou hast given me a south land give me also springs of water and caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs

and the house of joseph they also went up against bethel and the lord

and the house of joseph sent to descry bethel now the name of the city before was luz

and the spies saw a man come forth out of the city and they said unto him shew us we pray thee the entrance into the city and we will shew thee mercy

and when he shewed them the entrance into the city they smote the city with the edge of the sword but they let go the man and all his family

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

neither did manasseh drive out the inhabitants of bethshean and her towns nor taanach and her towns nor the inhabitants of dor and her towns nor the inhabitants of ibleam and her towns nor the inhabitants of megiddo and her towns but the canaanites would dwell in that land
