Yosua 10:14

10:14 There has not been a day like it before or since. The Lord obeyed ¹  a man, for the Lord fought for Israel!

Yosua 13:14

13:14 However, Moses ²  did not assign land as an inheritance ³  to the Levites; their inheritance ⁴  is the sacrificial offerings ⁵  made to the Lord God of Israel, as he instructed ⁶  them.

Yosua 22:23

22:23 If we have built ⁷  an altar for ourselves to turn back from following the Lord by making ⁸  burnt sacrifices and grain offerings on it, or by offering ⁹  tokens of peace ¹⁰  on it, the Lord himself will punish us. ¹¹ 

Yosua 23:5

23:5 The Lord your God will drive them out from before you and remove them, ¹²  so you can occupy ¹³  their land as the Lord your God promised ¹⁴  you.

[10:14]  ¹ tn Heb “listened to the voice of.”

[13:14]  ² tn Heb “he”; the referent (Moses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:14]  ³ tn Heb “did not assign an inheritance.”

[13:14]  ⁴ tn That is, “their source of food and life.”

[13:14]  ⁵ tn Or “offerings made by fire.”

[13:14]  ⁶ tn Or “promised” (Heb “spoke”).

[13:14]  sn For the background of this observation, see Deut 18:1-2.

[22:23]  ⁷ tn Heb “by building.” The prepositional phrase may be subordinated to what precedes, “if in unfaithfulness…by building.”

[22:23]  ⁸ tn Heb “or if to offer up.”

[22:23]  ⁹ tn Heb “or if to make.”

[22:23]  ¹⁰ tn Or “peace offerings.”

[22:23]  ¹¹ tn Heb “the Lord, he will seek.” Perhaps this is a self-imprecation in an oath, “may the Lord himself punish us.”

[23:5]  ¹² tn The Hebrew text reads, “from before you.” This has not been included in the translation because it is redundant in English.

[23:5]  ¹³ tn Or “take possession of.”

[23:5]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “said to.”
