Judges 1:2-4

Evangelical Heritage Version

² The Lord said, “Judah should go up. I have handed over the land to them.”

³ So the tribe of Judah said to the tribe of Simeon, their brothers, “Go up with us to the territory that has been allotted to us, and together we will wage war against the Canaanites. We also will come with you into your allotment.” So Simeon went with Judah.

⁴ When Judah went up, the Lord delivered the Canaanites and Perizzites into their hand. At Bezek the Israelites struck down ten thousand men.
