Judges 1:26 in Context — Judges 1

24 Les gardes virent un homme qui sortait de la ville, et ils lui dirent: Montre-nous par où nous pourrons entrer dans la ville, et nous te ferons grâce.

25 Il leur montra par où ils pourraient entrer dans la ville. Et ils frappèrent la ville du tranchant de l’épée; mais ils laissèrent aller cet homme et toute sa famille.

26 Cet homme se rendit dans le pays des Héthiens; il bâtit une ville, et lui donna le nom de Luz, nom qu’elle a porté jusqu’à ce jour.

27 Manassé ne chassa point les habitants de Beth-Schean et des villes de son ressort, de Thaanac et des villes de son ressort, de Dor et des villes de son ressort, de Jibleam et des villes de son ressort, de Meguiddo et des villes de son ressort; et les Cananéens voulurent rester dans ce pays.

28 Lorsqu’Israël fut assez fort, il assujettit les Cananéens à un tribut, mais il ne les chassa point.
