Joshua 24:8-10

International Standard Version

⁸ ‘I brought you into the territory of the Amorites, who lived on the other side of the Jordan River. They fought you, but I gave them into your control, and you took possession of their land. I destroyed them from your presence.

⁹ ‘Then Zippor’s son, King Balak of Moab, showed up and fought against Israel. He sent word^[a] to Balaam, summoning Beor’s son to put a curse on you. ¹⁰ But I wasn’t willing to listen to Balaam. So he had to bless you, and I delivered you from his control.
