6 a ll the inhabitants of the mountains from Lebanon as far as the Brook Misrephoth, and all the Sidonians—them I will drive out from before the children of Israel; only divide it by lot to Israel as an inheritance, as I have commanded you.

“Todos os habitantes das montanhas, desde o Líbano até Misrefote-Maim, isto é, todos os sidônios; eu mesmo os expulsarei da presença dos israelitas. Você, porém, distribuirá essa terra a Israel por herança, como lhe ordenei,
