Joshua 24:12-14
Christian Standard Bible
12 I sent hornets[a](A) ahead of you, and they drove out the two Amorite kings(B) before you. It was not by your sword or bow. 13 I gave you a land you did not labor for, and cities you did not build,(C) though you live in them; you are eating from vineyards and olive groves you did not plant.’
The Covenant Renewal
14 “Therefore, fear the Lord and worship him in sincerity and truth.(D) Get rid of the gods your ancestors worshiped(E) beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and worship the Lord.

Joshua 24:12-14
New International Version
12 I sent the hornet(A) ahead of you, which drove them out(B) before you—also the two Amorite kings. You did not do it with your own sword and bow.(C) 13 So I gave you a land(D) 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.’(E)
14 “Now fear the Lord(F) and serve him with all faithfulness.(G) Throw away the gods(H) your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt,(I) and serve the Lord.
