Joshua 23:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Else, if ye go back, and cleave unto the rest of these nations: that is, of them that remain with you, and shall [a]make marriages with them, and [b]go unto them, and they to you,
13 Know ye for certain, that the Lord your God will cast out no more of these nations from before you: (A)but they shall be a snare and destruction unto you, and a whip on your sides, and thorns in your [c]eyes, until ye perish out of this good land, which the Lord your God hath given you.
14 And behold, this day do I [d]enter into the way of all the world, and ye know in all your [e]hearts and in all your souls, that (B)nothing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God promised you, but all are come to pass unto you: nothing hath failed thereof.
