11 (A)You crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho; and the citizens of Jericho fought against you, and (B)the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite. Therefore (C)I handed them over to you. 12 Then I (D)sent the hornet before you and it [a]drove out the two kings of the Amorites from you—(E)not by your sword nor your bow. 13 And (F)I gave you a land on which you had not labored, and cities which you had not built, and you have lived in them; you are eating of vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant.’

  1. Joshua 24:12 Lit drove them out

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)

11 And you went over Jordan, and came unto Jericho: and the men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; and I delivered them into your hand.

12 And I sent the hornet before you, which drave them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; but not with thy sword, nor with thy bow.

13 And I have given you a land for which ye did not labour, and cities which ye built not, and ye dwell in them; of the vineyards and oliveyards which ye planted not do ye eat.
