Joshua 24:10-12

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ But I wouldn't listen to Balaam, and I rescued you by making him bless you instead of curse you.

^11 (A) You crossed the Jordan River and came to Jericho. The rulers of Jericho fought you, and so did the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. I helped you defeat them all. ^12 (B) Your enemies ran from you, but not because you had swords and bows and arrows. I made your enemies panic and run away, as I had done with the two Amorite kings east of the Jordan River.
