Joshua 24:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ I brought you to the land of the Amorites who lived on the other side of the Jordan. They fought against you, and I gave them up into your hands so that you might take possession of the land, and I crushed them before you. ⁹ Then Balak, the son of Zippor, the king of Moab, rose up and fought against Israel. He sent for and summoned Balaam, the son of Beor, to curse you, ¹⁰ but I would not listen to Balaam. He therefore blessed you, and so I delivered you out of his hands.
