07:001:022 And the house of Joseph, they also went
up against Bethel: and
the
lord was with them.
07:001:023 And the house of Joseph sent to descry
Bethel. (Now the name
of
the city before was Luz.)
07:001:024 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.
07:001:025 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.
07:001:026 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.
07:001:027 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.
07:001:028 And it came to pass, when Israel was strong,
that they put the
Canaanites
to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
07:001:029 Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites
that dwelt in
Gezer;
but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
07:001:030 Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants
of Kitron, nor
the
inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among
them,
and became tributaries.
07:001:031 Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants
of Accho, nor the
inhabitants
of Zidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of
Helbah,
nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob:
07:001:032 But the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites,
the inhabitants
of
the land: for they did not drive them out.
07:001:033 Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants
of Bethshemesh,
nor
the inhabitants of Bethanath; but he dwelt among the
Canaanites,
the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the
inhabitants
of Bethshemesh and of Bethanath became tributaries
unto
them.
07:001:034 And the Amorites forced the children of
Dan into the mountain:
for
they would not suffer them to come down to the valley:
07:001:035 But the Amorites would dwell in mount Heres
in Aijalon, and in
Shaalbim:
yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so
that
they became tributaries.
07:001:036 And the coast of the Amorites was from
the going up to
Akrabbim,
from the rock, and upward.
07:002:001 And an angel of the lord came up from
Gilgal to Bochim, and
said,
I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought
you
unto
the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said,
I
will
never break my covenant with you.
