2 Chronicles 8:7

As for all the people that were left of the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which were not of Israel,

All the people that were left ... The descendants of the Canaanites who remained in the country were treated as war-prisoners, being obliged to 'pay tribute, or to serve as galley-slaves' (2 Chronicles 2:18), while the Israelites were employed in no works but such as were of an honourable character.
