AT that time, after the death of Yahusha, the children of the Kena`aniym were still in the land, and Yashar'el resolved to drive them out.
And the children of Yashar'el asked of Yahuah, saying, Who shall first go up for us to the Kena`aniym to fight against them? and Yahuah said, Yahudah shall go up.
And the children of Yahudah said to Shim`on, Go up with us into our lot, and we will fight against the Kena`aniym and we likewise will go up with you, in your lot, so the children of Shim`on went with the children of Yahudah.
And the children of Yahudah went up and fought against the Kena`aniym, so Yahuah delivered the Kena`aniym into the hands of the children of Yahudah, and they smote them in Bezeq, ten thousand men.
And they fought with Adoniy-Bezeq in Bezeq, and he fled from before them, and they pursued him and caught him, and they took hold of him and cut off his thumbs and great toes.
And Adoniy-Bezeq said, Threescore and ten kings having their thumbs and great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table, as I have done, so Elohiym has requited me, and they brought him to Yerushalayim and he died there.
And the children of Shim`on went with the children of Yahudah, and they smote the Kena`aniym with the edge of the sword.
And Yahuah was with the children of Yahudah, and they possessed the mountain, and the children of Yoceph went up to Beyt-El, the same is Luz, and Yahuah was with them.
And the children of Yoceph spied out Beyt-El, and the watchmen saw a man going forth from the city, and they caught him and said unto him, Show us now the entrance of the city and we will show kindness to you.
And that man showed them the entrance of the city, and the children of Yoceph came and smote the city with the edge of the sword.
And the man with his family they sent away, and he went to the Chittiym and he built a city, and he called the name thereof Luz, so all Yashar'el dwelt in their cities, and the children at Yashar'el dwelt in their cities, and the children of Yashar'el served Yahuah all the days of Yahusha, and all the days of the elders, who had lengthened their days after Yahusha, and saw the great work of Yahuah, which he had performed for Yashar'el.
And the elders judged Yashar'el after the death of Yahusha for seventeen years.
And all the elders also fought the battles of Yashar'el against the Kena`aniym and Yahuah drove the Kena`aniym from before the children of Yashar'el, in order to place Yashar'el in their land.
And he accomplished all the words which he had spoken to Avraham, Yitschaq, and Ya`aqov, and the oath which he had sworn, to give to them and to their children, the land of the Kena`aniym.
And Yahuah gave to the children of Yashar'el the whole land of Kena`an, as he had sworn to their ancestors, and Yahuah gave them rest from those around them, and the children of Yashar'el dwelt securely in their cities.
Blessed be Yahuah forever, Aman and Aman.
Strengthen yourselves, and let the hearts of all you that trust in Yahuah be of good courage.
