1 Now after the death of Yahoshua it came to pass, that
the children of Yisrael asked vuvh, saying, Who shall go
up for us against the Kanaanites first, to fight against
them?
2 And vuvh said, Yahudah shall go up: see, I have
delivered the land into his hand.
3 And Yahudah said to Shimeon his brother, Come up
with me into my lot, that we may fight against the
Kanaanites; and I likewise will go with you into your lot.
So Shimeon went with him.
4 And Yahudah went up; and vuvh delivered the
Kanaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they
killed in Bezek ten thousand men.
5 And they found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek: and they fought
against him, and they killed the Kanaanites and the
Perizzites.
6 But Adoni-Bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and
caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
7 And Adoni-Bezek said, Seventy melechim, having their
thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their food
under my shulchan: as I have done, so Elohim has repaid
me. And they brought him to Yahrushalayim, and there he
died.
8 Now the children of Yahudah had fought against
Yahrushalayim, and had taken it, and smote it with the
edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 And afterward the children of Yahudah went down to
fight against the Kanaanites, who dwelt in the mountain,
and in the south, and in the valley.
10 And Yahudah went against the Kanaanites that dwelt
in Hevron - now the name of Hevron before was Kiryath-
Arba - and they killed Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 And from there he went against the inhabitants of
Devir: and the name of Devir before was Kiryath-Sepher:
12 And Kalev said, He that smites Kiryath-Sepher, and
takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as a wife.
13 And Othni-El the son of Kenaz, Kalev's younger
brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter as a
wife.
14 And it came to pass, when she came to him, that she
moved him to ask of her abba a field: and she dismounted
from off her donkey; and Kalev said to her, What do you
want?
15 And she said to him, Give me a bracha: for you have
given me a south land; give me also the springs of mayim.
And Kalev gave her the upper springs and the lower
springs.
16 And the children of the Kenite, Moshe’s abba-in-law,
went up out of the city of palm eytzim with the children
of Yahudah into the wilderness of Yahudah, which lies
south of Arad; and they went and dwelt among the
people.
17 And Yahudah went with Shimeon his brother, and they
killed the Kanaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly
destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
18 Also Yahudah took Azah with its border, and
Ashkelon with its border, and Ekron with its border.
19 And vuvh was with Yahudah; and He drove out the
inhabitants of the mountain; but the inhabitants of the
valley could not be driven out, because they had

mirkavot of iron.
20 And they gave Hevron to Kalev, as Moshe said: and he
expelled from there the three sons of Anak.
21 And the children of Benyamin did not drive out the
Yevusites that inhabited Yahrushalayim; but the
Yevusites dwell with the children of Benyamin in
Yahrushalayim to this day.
22 And Beit Yoseph also went up against Beth-El: and
vuvh was with them.
23 And Beit Yoseph sent some to spy in Beth-El - now
the name of the city before was formerly Luz.
24 And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city,
and they said to him, Show us, we ask you, the entrance
into the city, and we will show you rachamim.
25 And when he showed them the entrance into the city,
they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they
let the man go along with all his mishpacha.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and
built a city, and called the name of it Luz: which is the
name of it to this day.
27 Neither did Menashsheh drive out the inhabitants of
Beth-Shean and its villages, nor Taanach and its villages,
nor the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, nor the
inhabitants of Ivleam and its villages, nor the inhabitants
of Megiddo and its villages: but the Kanaanites would
dwell in that land.
28 And it came to pass, when Yisrael was strong, that
they put the Kanaanites to slave labor, and did not utterly
drive them out. 710
29 Neither did Efrayim drive out the Kanaanites that
dwelt in Gezer; but the Kanaanites dwelt in Gezer among
them.
30 Neither did Zevulun drive out the inhabitants of
Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nachalol; but the
Kanaanites dwelt among them, and became slave
laborers.
31 Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho,
nor the inhabitants of Tzidon, nor of Achlab, nor of
Achzib, nor of Helvah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehov:
32 But the Asherites dwelt among the Kanaanites, the
inhabitants of the land: for they did not drive them out.
33 Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth-
Shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-Anath; but they
dwelt among the Kanaanites, the inhabitants of the land:
Nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth-Shemesh and of
Beth-Anath became slave laborers to them.
34 And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the
mountain: for they would not allow them to come down
to the valley:
35 But the Amorites desired to dwell in Mount Heres in
Aiyalon, and in Shaalvim: yet the hand of Beit Yoseph
prevailed, so that they became slave laborers.
36 And the border of the Amorites was from the going up
to Akravim, from Sela, and upward.
And the Malach-vuvh 711 2
came up from Gilgal to
Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Mitzrayim,
and have brought you to the land that I swore to your
ahvot; and I said, I will never break My brit with you.
2 And you shall make no brit with the inhabitants of this
