And the children H1121 of Joseph H3130 said H559 , The hill H2022 is not H3808 enough H4672 for us : and all H3605 the Canaanites H3669 that dwell H3427 in the land H776 of the valley H6010 have chariots H7393 of iron H1270 , both they who H834 are of Beth H1052 -shean and her towns H1323 , and they who H834 are of the valley H6010 of Jezreel H3157 .

|
|
18. but the hill-country shall be yours; for though it is a forest, you shall cut it down, and the goings out of it shall be your; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.
|
18. But H3588 the mountain H2022 shall be H1961 thine; for H3588 it H1931 is a wood H3293 , and thou shalt cut it down H1254 : and the outgoings H8444 of it shall be H1931 thine: for H3588 thou shalt drive out H3423 H853 the Canaanites H3669 , though H3588 they have iron H1270 chariots H7393 , and though H3588 they H1931 be strong H2389 .
