Judges 3:1-3
EasyEnglish Bible
3 The Lord allowed some nations to stay in Canaan. He would use them to test the Israelites who had not yet fought wars in Canaan. 2 He wanted to teach the young men of Israel how to fight their enemies, because they had not fought battles before. 3 The nations who remained were:
the Philistines, with their five kings,
all the Canaanites,
the Sidonians,
the Hivites who lived in the Lebanon mountains, from Mount Baal Hermon to Lebo-Hamath.
