Judges 1:24-27

24The spies saw a man coming out of the city and they said to him, “Please show us the entrance to the city and 1we will treat you kindly.” 25So he showed them the entrance to the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword, 2but they let the man and all his family go free. 26The man went into the land of the Hittites and built a city and named it Luz 3which is its name to this day.

274But Manasseh did not take possession 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; so 5the Canaanites persisted in living in that land.
