Judges 1:27-29

Evangelical Heritage Version

²⁷ But the tribe of Manasseh did not take possession of Beth Shan and its towns or Ta’anach and its towns. They did not drive out the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, so the Canaanites were determined to keep living in this land. ²⁸ Whenever Israel grew strong, they made the Canaanites perform forced labor, but they did not drive them out completely.

²⁹ In the same way, Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites living at Gezer. Instead, the Canaanites continued to live among them at Gezer.
