27 ^aBut Manasseh did not take possession of Beth-shean and its towns or Taanach and its towns or the inhabitants of Dor and its towns or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; so ^bthe Canaanites persisted to live in that land.

As ^bYahweh commanded them,

And ^aserved their idols,

^bWhich became a snare to them.
