What does Joshua 17:13 mean?

Even when the Israelites got stronger, they didn’t kick the Canaanites out completely. Instead, they made them work for them. Joshua 17:13 - Modern Text Bible

(As Israel grew in power, they settled for making the Canaanites pay tribute or do forced labor, rather than removing them entirely.)
