18-19 The Lord helped the people of Judah, and they took possession of the hill country. But they did not capture[a] Gaza, Ashkelon, or Ekron, with their surrounding territories. These people living along the coast had iron chariots, and so the people of Judah were not able to drive them out. 20 (A)As Moses had commanded, Hebron was given to Caleb, who drove out of the city the three clans descended from Anak. 21 (B)But the people of the tribe of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites living in Jerusalem, and the Jebusites have continued to live there with the people of Benjamin ever since.
