22 And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel, and LORD was with them.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel. (Now the name of the city was formerly Luz.)
24 And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said to him, Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with thee.
25 And he showed them the entrance into the city. And they smote the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man go and all his family.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name of it Luz, which is the name of it to this day.
27 And Manasseh did not drive out those of Beth-shean and its towns, nor of Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28 And it came to pass, when Israel grew strong, that they put the Canaanites to task work, and did not utterly drive them out.
29 And Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites who dwelt in Gezer, but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
