12 H1121 Yet the children H4519 of Manasseh H3201 could [H8804] H3423 not drive out [H8687] H5892 the inhabitants of those cities H3669 ; but the Canaanites H2974 would [H8686] H3427 dwell [H8800] H776 in that land.

13 H1121 Yet it came to pass, when the children H3478 of Israel H2388 were waxen strong [H8804] H5414 , that they put [H8799] H3669 the Canaanites H4522 to tribute H3423 ; but did not utterly [H8687] H3423 drive them out [H8689] .

14 H1121 And the children H3130 of Joseph H1696 spake [H8762] H3091 unto Joshua H559 , saying [H8800] H5414 , Why hast thou given [H8804] H259 me but one H1486 lot H259 and one H2256 portion H5159 to inherit H7227 , seeing I am a great H5971 people H5704 , forasmuch as H3068 the LORD H1288 hath blessed [H8765] H3541 me hitherto?

15 H3091 And Joshua H559 answered [H8799] H7227 them, If thou be a great H5971 people H5927 , then get thee up [H8798] H3293 to the wood H1254 country, and cut down [H8765] H776 for thyself there in the land H6522 of the Perizzites H7497 and of the giants H2022 , if mount H669 Ephraim H213 be too narrow [H8804] for thee.

16 H1121 And the children H3130 of Joseph H559 said [H8799] H2022 , The hill H4672 is not enough [H8735] H3669 for us: and all the Canaanites H3427 that dwell [H8802] H776 in the land H6010 of the valley H7393 have chariots H1270 of iron H1052 , both they who are of Bethshean H1323 and her towns H6010 , and they who are of the valley H3157 of Jezreel.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out [the inhabitants] of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land. ¹³ And it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, and did not utterly drive them out. ¹⁴ And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one part for an inheritance, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as hitherto the LORD hath blessed me? ¹⁵ And Joshua said unto them, If thou be a great people, get thee up to the forest, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the Rephaim; since the hill country of Ephraim is too narrow for thee. ¹⁶ And the children of Joseph said, The hill country is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are in Beth-shean and her towns, and they who are in the valley of Jezreel.
