24. And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will show thee mercy.
25. And when he showed them the entrance into the city, they smote the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man go and all his family.
26. And the man went into the land of the Hittites and built a city and called the name of it Luz, which is its name unto this day.
27. Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Bethshean and its towns nor Taanach and its towns nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanite desired to dwell in that land.
28. And it came to pass when Israel was strong that they put the Canaanites under tribute but did not utterly drive them out.
29. Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanite that dwelt in Gezer, but the Canaanite dwelt in Gezer among them.
