Judges 1:16-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁶ The Kenites were descendants of Moses' wife's father. They left Jericho with Judah's people to live in the region of Arad, in the Negev desert.

¹⁷ Then Judah's men joined with their cousins, Simeon's men, to attack the Canaanites who lived in Zephath. They completely destroyed the city. They gave it a new name, ‘Hormah’.^{[a] 18} Judah's men also took for themselves the cities of Gaza, Ashkelon and Ekron, as well as the land around those cities.
