NETBible

But the men 1  of Manasseh were unable to conquer these cities; the Canaanites managed 2  to remain in those areas.

NET Notes

1 tn Heb “sons”; “men” has been used in the translation because the context involves the conquest of cities; therefore, warriors (hence males) would be in view here.

2 tn Or “were determined.”
