21And the children of Judah did not make the Jebusites who were living in Jerusalem go out; the Jebusites are still living with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem.
22And the family of Joseph went up against Beth-el, and the Lord was with them.
23So they sent men to make a search round Beth-el. (Now the name of the town in earlier times was Luz.)
24And the watchers saw a man coming out of the town, and said to him, If you will make clear to us the way into the town, we will be kind to you.
25So he made clear to them the way into the town, and they put it to the sword; but they let the man and all his family get away safe.
26And he went into the land of the Hittites, building a town there and naming it Luz: which is its name to this day.
27And Manasseh did not take away the land of the people of Beth-shean and its daughter-towns, or of Taanach and its daughter-towns, or of the people of Dor and its daughter-towns, or of the people of Ibleam and its daughter-towns, or of the people of Megiddo and its daughter-towns, driving them out; but the Canaanites would go on living in that land.
28And whenever Israel became strong, they put the Canaanites to forced work, without driving them out completely.
29And Ephraim did not make the Canaanites who were living in Gezer go out; but the Canaanites went on living in Gezer among them.
