Judges 1:26-28

Expanded Bible

²⁶ He went to the land where the Hittites lived [^Cin Syria, north of Israel] and built a city. He named it Luz, which it is called even today.

²⁷ The people of Manasseh did not ·force [drive] out the inhabitants of the cities of Beth Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo, nor the small towns around them, because the Canaanites were determined to stay there. ²⁸ Later, the Israelites grew strong and forced the Canaanites ·to work as slaves [into forced labor], but they did not ·make all the Canaanites leave their land [^Ldrive them out completely].
