Parallel

1 Kings 9:21

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy—of them Solomon raised a levy of bondservants to this day.
their descendants who remained in the land, those whom the Israelites were unable to devote to destruction (note: Forms of the Hebrew cherem refer to the giving over of things or persons to the LORD, either by destroying them or by giving them as an offering.)—Solomon conscripted these people to be forced laborers, as they are to this day.
