Judges 1:17-20 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

17. The people of Judah went with the people of Simeon, and together they defeated the Canaanites who lived in the city of Zephath. They put a curse on the city, destroyed it, and named it Hormah.

18-19. The Lord helped the people of Judah, and they took possession of the hill country. But they did not capture Gaza, Ashkelon, or Ekron, with their surrounding territories. These people living along the coast had iron chariots, and so the people of Judah were not able to drive them out.

20. As Moses had commanded, Hebron was given to Caleb, who drove out of the city the three clans descended from Anak.
