1 Kings 9:20

And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites,
Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites
Who were not destroyed in the times of Joshua, or since, but dwelt in several cities of the land of Israel from those times; see ( Judges 1:1 ) , which were not of the children of Israel; not natives of the land of Israel, though they might be proselytes, at least some of them.

1 Kings 9:20 In-Context

18 and Ba`alat, and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land,

19 and all the store-cities that Shlomo had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and that which Shlomo desired to build for his pleasure in Yerushalayim, and in Levanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

20 As for all the people who were left of the Amori, the Hitti, the Perizzi, the Hivvi, and the Yevusi, who were not of the children of Yisra'el;

21 their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Yisra'el were not able utterly to destroy, of them did Shlomo raise a levy of bondservants to this day.

22 But of the children of Yisra'el did Shlomo make no bondservants; but they were the men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
