Judges 1:30-35
New English Translation
30 The men of Zebulun did not conquer the people living in Kitron and Nahalol.[a] The Canaanites lived among them and were forced to do hard labor.
31 The men of Asher did not conquer the people living in Acco or Sidon, nor did they conquer Ahlab, Achzib, Helbah, Aphek, or Rehob.[b] 32 The people of Asher live among the Canaanites residing in the land because they did not conquer them.
33 The men of Naphtali did not conquer the people living in Beth Shemesh or Beth Anath.[c] They live among the Canaanites residing in the land. The Canaanites[d] living in Beth Shemesh and Beth Anath were forced to do hard labor for them.
34 The Amorites forced the people of Dan to live in the hill country. They did not allow them to live in[e] the coastal plain. 35 The Amorites managed[f] to remain in Har Heres,[g] Aijalon, and Shaalbim. Whenever the tribe of Joseph was strong militarily,[h] the Amorites were forced to do hard labor.

Judges 1:30-35
New International Version
30 Neither did Zebulun drive out the Canaanites living in Kitron or Nahalol, so these Canaanites lived among them, but Zebulun did subject them to forced labor. 31 Nor did Asher(A) drive out those living in Akko or Sidon(B) or Ahlab or Akzib(C) or Helbah or Aphek(D) or Rehob.(E) 32 The Asherites lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land because they did not drive them out. 33 Neither did Naphtali drive out those living in Beth Shemesh(F) or Beth Anath(G); but the Naphtalites too lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land, and those living in Beth Shemesh and Beth Anath became forced laborers for them. 34 The Amorites(H) confined the Danites(I) to the hill country, not allowing them to come down into the plain.(J) 35 And the Amorites were determined also to hold out in Mount Heres,(K) Aijalon(L) and Shaalbim,(M) but when the power of the tribes of Joseph increased, they too were pressed into forced labor.
