Joshua 13:13

13 Yet the people of Israel rdid not drive out the Geshurites or the Maacathites, but Geshur and Maacath dwell in the midst of Israel to this day.


Joshua 15:63

63 But the Jebusites, ethe inhabitants of Jerusalem, the people of Judah fcould not drive out, so the Jebusites dwell with the people of Judah at Jerusalem to this day.


Joshua 16:10

10 However, they hdid not drive out the Canaanites iwho lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites have lived in the midst of Ephraim to this day but have been made to do forced labor.


Joshua 17:12–13

12 pYet the people of Manasseh could not take possession of those cities, but the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in that land. 13 Now when the people of Israel grew strong, they qput the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not utterly drive them out.


Judges 1:27–36

Failure to Complete the Conquest

27 wManasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its villages, or Taanach and its villages, or the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its villages, or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages, for the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in that land. 28 When Israel grew strong, they xput the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not drive them out completely.

29 And Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites ywho lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them.

30 Zebulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, or the inhabitants of Nahalol, so the Canaanites lived among them, but became subject to forced labor.

31 Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Acco, or the inhabitants of Sidon or of Ahlab or of Achzib or of Helbah or of Aphik or of Rehob, 32 so the Asherites lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, for they did not drive them out.

33 Naphtali did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, or the inhabitants of Beth-anath, so they lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land. Nevertheless, the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became subject to forced labor for them.

34 The Amorites zpressed the people of Dan back into the hill country, for they did not allow them to come down to the plain. 35 The Amorites persisted in dwelling in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, but the hand of the house of Joseph rested heavily on them, and they became subject to forced labor. 36 And the border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upward.
