23. The house of Joseph sent men to spy out Bethel (the former name of the city was Luz).
24. Now the scouts saw a man coming out from the city and they said to him, “Please show us the entrance into the city and we will deal kindly with you.”
25. So he showed them the entrance into the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man go free with all his family.
26. So the man went into the land of the Hittites, built a city, and named it Luz, which is its name to this day.
27. Manasseh, however, did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its villages, or Taanach and its villages, or the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its villages, or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages. So the Canaanites resolved to dwell in that land.
28. When Israel became strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but they did not drive them out.
29. Nor did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites who were living in Gezer, so the Canaanites settled in Gezer among them.
30. Nor did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, or the inhabitants of Nahalol, so the Canaanites settled among them, but became subject to forced labor.
31. Nor did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Acco or the inhabitants of Zidon, Achlab, Achzib, Helbah, Aphik or Rehob;
32. so the Asherites lived among the Canaanites who were dwelling in the land, because they did not drive them out.
33. Nor did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, or the inhabitants of Beth-anath, but lived among the Canaanites dwelling in the land, though the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath became forced labor for them.
