Dual Panel1After <0310> Joshua <03091> died <04194>, the Israelites <03478> <01121> asked <07592> the Lord <03068>, “Who <04310> should lead <05927> the invasion against <0413> the Canaanites <03669> and launch <08462> the attack <03898>?”
2The Lord <03068> said <0559>, “The men of Judah <03063> should take <05927> the lead <05927>. Be sure of this! I am handing <05414> the land <0776> over <03027> to them.”
3The men of Judah <03063> said <0559> to their relatives <0251>, the men of Simeon <08095>, “Invade <05927> our allotted <01486> land with <0854> us and help us attack <03898> the Canaanites <03669>. Then we <0589> will go with <0854> you into your allotted <01486> land.” So the men of Simeon <08095> went <01980> with <0854> them.
4The men of Judah <03063> attacked <05927>, and the Lord <03068> handed <03027> <05414> the Canaanites <03669> and Perizzites <06522> over <03027> <05414> to them. They killed <05221> ten <06235> thousand <0505> men <0376> at Bezek <0966>.
5They met <04672> Adoni-Bezek <0137> at Bezek <0966> and fought <03898> him. They defeated <05221> the Canaanites <03669> and Perizzites <06522>.
6When Adoni-Bezek <0137> ran away <05127>, they chased <07291> him and captured <0270> him. Then they cut off <07112> his thumbs <0931> and big toes <07272> <0931>.
7Adoni-Bezek <0137> <00> said <0559>, “Seventy <07657> kings <04428>, with thumbs <03027> <0931> and big toes <07272> <0931> cut off <07112>, used to <01961> lick up <03950> food scraps under <08478> my table <07979>. God <0430> has repaid <07999> me for what <0834> I did <06213> to them.” They brought <0935> him to Jerusalem <03389>, where <08033> he died <04191>.
8The men <01121> of Judah <03063> attacked <03898> Jerusalem <03389> and captured <03920> it. They put <05221> the sword <02719> to it and set <07971> the city <05892> on fire <0784>.
9Later <0310> the men <01121> of Judah <03063> went down <03381> to attack <03898> the Canaanites <03669> living <03427> in the hill country <02022>, the Negev <05045>, and the lowlands <08219>.
10The men of Judah <03063> attacked <01980> the Canaanites <03669> living <03427> in Hebron <02275>. (Hebron <02275> used to be called <08034> Kiriath Arba <07153>.) They killed <05221> Sheshai <08344>, Ahiman <0289>, and Talmai <08526>.
11From there <08033> they attacked <01980> the people <03427> of Debir <01688>. (Debir <01688> used to be <06440> called <08034> Kiriath Sepher <07158>.)
12Caleb <03612> said <0559>, “To the man who <0834> attacks <05221> and captures <03920> Kiriath Sepher <07158> I will give <05414> my daughter <01323> Acsah <05915> as a wife <0802>.”
13When Othniel <06274> son <01121> of Kenaz <07073>, Caleb’s <03612> younger <06996> brother <0251>, captured <03920> it, Caleb gave <05414> him his daughter <01323> Acsah <05915> as a wife <0802>.
14One time <01961> Acsah came <0935> and charmed <05496> her father <01> so she could ask <07592> him for some land <07704>. When she got down <06795> from <05921> her donkey <02543>, Caleb <03612> said <0559> to her, “What <04100> would you like?”
15She answered <0559>, “Please give <03051> me a special present <01293>. Since <03588> you have given <05414> me land <0776> in the Negev <05045>, now give <05414> me springs <01543> of water <04325>.” So Caleb <03612> gave <05414> her both the upper <05942> and lower <08482> springs <01543>.
16Now the descendants <01121> of the Kenite <07017>, Moses <04872>’ father-in-law <02859>, went up <05927> with <0854> the people <01121> of Judah <03063> from the City <05892> of Date Palm Trees <08558> to Arad <06166> in the desert <04057> of Judah <03063>, located in <0834> the Negev <05045>. They went <01980> and lived <03427> with <0854> the people <05971> of Judah.
17The men of Judah <03063> went <01980> with <0854> their brothers <0251> the men of Simeon <08095> and defeated <05221> the Canaanites <03669> living <03427> in Zephath <06857>. They wiped out <02763> Zephath. So people now call <08034> <07121> the city <05892> Hormah <02767>.
18The men of Judah <03063> captured <03920> Gaza <05804>, Ashkelon <0831>, Ekron <06138>, and the territory <01366> surrounding each of these cities.
19The Lord <03068> was <01961> with <0854> the men of Judah <03063>. They conquered <03423> the hill country <02022>, but <03588> they could not <03808> conquer <03423> the people living <03427> in the coastal plain <06010>, because <03588> they had chariots <07393> with iron-rimmed <01270> wheels.
20Caleb <03612> received <05414> Hebron <02275>, just as <0834> Moses <04872> had promised <01696>. He drove out <03423> the three <07969> Anakites <06061> <01121>.
21The men <01121> of Benjamin <01144>, however, did not <03808> conquer <03423> the Jebusites <02983> living <03427> in Jerusalem <03389>. The Jebusites <02983> live <03427> with <0854> the people <01121> of Benjamin <01144> in Jerusalem <03389> to <05704> this <02088> very day <03117>.
22When the men <01004> of Joseph <03130> attacked <05927> Bethel <01008>, the Lord <03068> was with <05973> them <01992>.
23When the men <01004> of Joseph <03130> spied out <08446> Bethel <01008> (it used to be called <08034> Luz <03870>),
24the spies <08104> spotted <07200> a man <0376> leaving <03318> the city <05892>. They said <0559> to him, “If you show <07200> us a secret entrance <03996> into the city <05892>, we will reward <02617> <06213> you.”
25He showed <07200> them a secret entrance <03996> into the city <05892>, and they put <05221> the city <05892> to the sword <02719>. But they let the man <0376> and his extended <03605> family <04940> leave safely <07971>.
26He moved <01980> to Hittite <02850> country <0776> and built <01129> a city <05892>. He named <08034> <07121> it Luz <03870>, and it <01931> has kept that name <08034> to <05704> this <02088> very day <03117>.
27The men of Manasseh <04519> did not <03808> conquer <03423> Beth Shan <01052>, Taanach <08590>, or their surrounding towns <01323> <01323>. Nor did they conquer <03423> the people living <03427> <03427> <03427> in Dor <01756>, Ibleam <02991>, Megiddo <04023> or their surrounding towns <01323> <01323> <01323>. The Canaanites <03669> managed <02974> to remain <03427> in those <02063> areas <0776>.
28Whenever <01961> Israel <03478> was strong <02388> militarily, they forced <07760> the Canaanites <03669> to do hard labor <04522>, but they never <03808> totally <03423> conquered <03423> them.
29The men of Ephraim <0669> did not <03808> conquer <03423> the Canaanites <03669> living <03427> in Gezer <01507>. The Canaanites <03669> lived <03427> among <07130> them in Gezer <01507>.
30The men of Zebulun <02074> did not <03808> conquer <03423> the people living <03427> in Kitron <07003> and Nahalol <05096>. The Canaanites <03669> lived <03427> among <07130> them and were <01961> forced to do hard labor <04522>.
31The men of Asher <0836> did not <03808> conquer <03423> the people living <03427> in Acco <05910> or Sidon <06721>, nor did they conquer Ahlab <0303>, Aczib <0392>, Helbah <02462>, Aphek <0663>, or Rehob <07340>.
32The people of Asher <0843> live <03427> among <07130> the Canaanites <03669> residing <03427> in the land <0776> because <03588> they did not <03808> conquer <03423> them.
33The men of Naphtali <05321> did not <03808> conquer <03423> the <0853> people living <03427> in Beth Shemesh <01053> or Beth Anath <01043>. They live <03427> among <07130> the Canaanites <03669> residing <03427> in the land <0776>. The Canaanites living <03427> in Beth Shemesh <01053> and Beth Anath <01043> were <01961> forced to do hard labor <04522> for them.
34The Amorites <0567> forced <03905> the people <01121> of Dan <01835> to live in the hill country <02022>. They did not <03808> allow <05414> them to live in <03381> the coastal plain <06010>.
35The Amorites <0567> managed <02974> to remain <03427> in Har <02022> Heres <02776>, Aijalon <0357>, and Shaalbim <08169>. Whenever the tribe <01004> of Joseph <03130> was strong <03513> militarily <03027>, the Amorites were <01961> forced to do hard labor <04522>.
36The border <01366> of Amorite <0567> territory ran from the Scorpion Ascent <04610> to Sela <05553> and on up <04605>.
