Yet all the Canaanites who dwell in the plain have (F)chariots of iron, both those in Beth-shean and its villages and those in (G)the Valley of Jezreel.” 17 Then Joshua said to the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and Manasseh, “You are a numerous people and have great power. You shall not have one allotment only, 18 but the hill country shall be yours, for though it is a forest, you shall clear it and possess it to its farthest borders. For you shall drive out the Canaanites, (H)though they have chariots of iron, and though they are strong.”

Behold, (J)I give you a wise and discerning mind, so that none like you has been before you and none like you shall arise after you. 13 (K)I give you also what you have not asked, (L)both riches and honor, so that no other king shall compare with you, all your days.
