Judges 1:17-19

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁷ And [the tribe of] Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath and utterly destroyed it. So the city was called Hormah [destruction].

¹⁸ Also Judah took Gaza, Askelon, and Ekron—each with its territory.

¹⁹ The Lord was with Judah, and [Judah] drove out the inhabitants of the hill country, but he could not drive out those inhabiting the [difficult] valley basin because they had chariots of iron.
