16 And the sons of Joseph said, “The hill country is not enough for us, and a chariot of iron is with every Canaanite who is dwelling in the land of the valley who are of Beth-shean and its daughters, and who are of the Valley of Jezreel.”

17 And Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh, saying, “You are a great people, and great power is unto you. Not just one lot shall be unto you.

18 But the hill country shall be unto you, because it is wooded. And you shall cut it down, and its farthest extent shall be unto you, for you shall drive out the Canaanite, though a chariot of iron is unto him, and though he is strong.”
