Judges 3:1-6

¹And these are the nations which Jehovah left, to try Israel by them, all who have not known all the wars of Canaan;

²(only for the sake of the generations of the sons of Israel's knowing, to teach them war, only those who formerly have not known them) —

³five princes of the Philistines, and all the Canaanite, and the Zidonian, and the Hivite inhabiting mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-Hermon unto the entering in of Hamath;

⁴and they are to prove Israel by them, to know whether they obey the commands of Jehovah that He commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.

⁵And the sons of Israel have dwelt in the midst of the Canaanite, the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite,

⁶and take their daughters to them for wives, and their daughters have given to their sons, and they serve their gods;
