Joshua 17:14-16

Names of God Bible

¹⁴ Joseph’s descendants asked Joshua, “Why did you give us only one region for an inheritance? We have a lot of people because Yahweh has blessed us.”

¹⁵ Joshua replied, “If there are so many of you, go into the forest! Clear ground for yourselves there in the land of the Perizzites and Rephaim if the mountains of Ephraim are too confining for you.”

¹⁶ Joseph’s descendants responded, “The mountains are not enough for us either. Besides, all the Canaanites living in the valley, in Beth Shean and its villages, and in the valley of Jezreel have chariots made of iron.”
