Judges 1:19-21

The Message

^18-19 But Judah didn’t manage to capture Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron with their territories. God was certainly with Judah in that they took over the hill country. But they couldn’t oust the people on the plain because they had iron chariots.

²⁰ They gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had directed. Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak.

²¹ But the people of Benjamin couldn’t get rid of the Jebusites living in Jerusalem. Benjaminites and Jebusites live side by side in Jerusalem to this day.
