31 Asher (happy) failed to drive out the inhabitants of Acco (his straitness), Sidon (hunting), Ahlab (fertile place), Achzib (deception), Helbah (fertile), Aphik (enclosure), and Rehob (broad place). 32 So the Asherites (happy) lived among the Canaanite (merchant) inhabitants of the land, because they did not drive them out. 33 Naphtali (wrestling) failed to drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh (house of the sun) and Beth-anath (house of affliction). So the Naphtalites also lived among the Canaanite (merchant) inhabitants of the land, but the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath served them as forced laborers. 34 The Amorites (sayers) forced the Danites (He has judged) into the hill country and did not allow them to come down into the plain. 35 And the Amorites (sayers) were determined to dwell in Mount Heres (the sun), Aijalon (field of deer), and Shaalbim (place of foxes). But when the house of Joseph (YHWH has added) grew in strength, they pressed the Amorites into forced labor. 36 And the border of the Amorites (sayers) extended from the Ascent (ascent of scorpions) of Akrabbim (the Ascent of Scorpions) to Sela (the rock) and beyond.
