Joshua 19:46-48

International Children’s Bible

⁴⁶ Me Jarkon, Rakkon and the area near Joppa.

⁴⁷ (But the Danites had trouble taking their land. There were strong enemies there. And the Danites could not easily defeat them. So the Danites went and fought against Leshem. They defeated Leshem and killed the people who lived there. So the Danites lived in the town of Leshem. They changed its name to Dan because he was the father of their tribe.) ⁴⁸ All of these cities and towns were given to the tribe of Dan. Each family group got part of this land.
