19 The Lord was with Judah and enabled them to take possession of the hill country, but they could not drive out the people who were living in the valley because those people had iron chariots.
20 Judah gave Hebron to Caleb, just as Moses had promised. Then Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak who lived there.
21 At the same time the Benjaminites did not drive out the Jebusites who were living in Jerusalem. The Jebusites have lived among the Benjaminites in Jerusalem to this day.
22 The house of Joseph also attacked Bethel, and the Lord was with them.
23 They sent spies to Bethel (the town was formerly named Luz ).
24 The spies saw a man coming out of the town and said to him, “Please show us how to get into town, and we will treat you well.”
25 When he showed them the way into the town, they put the town to the sword but released the man and his entire family.
