Judges 1:26 Context
24And the spies sawe a man come forth out of the citie, and they said vnto him, Shew vs, wee pray thee, the entrance into the citie, and we will shew thee mercie. 25And when hee shewed them the entrance into the citie, they smote the citie with the edge of the sword: but they let goe the man and all his familie. 26And the man went into the lande of the Hittites, and built a citie, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof vnto this day. 27¶ Neither did Manasseh driue out the inhabitants of Bethshean, and her townes, nor Taanach and her townes, nor the inhabitants of Dor, and her townes, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam, and her townes, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo, and her townes: but the Canaanites would dwel in that land. 28And it came to passe when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not vtterly driue them out.
