Joshua 24:11-13
Common English Bible
11 Then you crossed over the Jordan. You came to Jericho, and the citizens of Jericho attacked you. They were Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, and Jebusites. But I gave them into your power. 12 I sent the hornet[a] before you. It drove them out before you and did the same to the two kings of the Amorites. It wasn’t your sword or bow that did this. 13 I gave you land on which you hadn’t toiled and cities that you hadn’t built. You settled in them and are enjoying produce from vineyards and olive groves that you didn’t plant.

Joshua 24:11-13
New International Version
11 “‘Then you crossed the Jordan(A) and came to Jericho.(B) The citizens of Jericho fought against you, as did also the Amorites, Perizzites,(C) Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites and Jebusites,(D) but I gave them into your hands.(E) 12 I sent the hornet(F) ahead of you, which drove them out(G) before you—also the two Amorite kings. You did not do it with your own sword and bow.(H) 13 So I gave you a land(I) on which you did not toil and cities you did not build; and you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.’(J)
