Joshua 17:13-15
New King James Version
13 And it happened, when the children of Israel grew strong, that they put the Canaanites to (A)forced labor, but did not utterly drive them out.
More Land for Ephraim and Manasseh
14 (B)Then the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given us only (C)one [a]lot and one share to inherit, since we are (D)a great people, inasmuch as the Lord has blessed us until now?”
15 So Joshua answered them, “If you are a great people, then go up to the forest country and clear a place for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and the giants, since the mountains of Ephraim are too confined for you.”
