(11) "And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher: Beth-shean 

 and its dependencies, and Ibleam and its dependencies, and the 

 inhabitants of Dor and its dependencies, and the inhabitants of 

 Endov and its dependencies, and the inhabitants of Taanach and its 

 dependencies, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its dependencies 

 (Third in it is Naphath)'. 



(12) Yet the children of Manasseh were unable to dispossess 

 those cities; but the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in that 

 region. 



(13) And it came to pass, when the children of Israel became 

 strong enough, that they put the Canaanites in the Avorking gangs, 

 but by no means dispossessed them." 



The Greek (B) reads :

In v.ll instead of Kat^oav, B''^ '"^'A read more correctly Bai^crav. 

 For Aw/), B^'' '"s reads 'ESw/a. A has the form MayeSSw/). A inserts 

 before Kai t6 rpirov the phrase : Kai Toy's KaroiKoivras Tava;( Kai ras 

 Kw/tas auT^s. For Ma<^eTa, A has Na<^£^a. V. 12: A has r/SwrjOrja-av. 

 For ^p;^eTo, A reads ^p^aro (Cp, Judg. 1:27). V.13: A omits the 



second Kai. For evrei KaTLcr^vaav B^A have £7rtKaTio-;^iio-av. For 



i^oXiOpcvaaL, A reads oXeOpeva-ai. In verse 11 the rendering of ^11*1 

 in the Greek as a future, eWai, is probably due to the carrying over
