American King James Version
"Else if you do in any wise go back, and join to the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in to them, and they to you: "
— Joshua 23:12, American King James Version
“Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:”
“Else if ye do at all go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you; ”
“"But if you do at all go back, and hold fast to the remnant of these nations, even these who remain among you, and make marriages with them, and go in to them, and they to you;”
“But if you ever turn away and make alliances with these nations that remain near you, and intermarry with them and establish friendly relations with them,”
“But if you will embrace the errors of these nations that dwell among you, and make marriages with them, and join friendships:”
“For if you go back, joining yourselves to the rest of these nations who are still among you, getting married to them and living with them and they with you:”
“Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:”
For the LORD has driven out from before you great nations and strong: but as for you, no man has been able to stand before you to this day.
One man of you shall chase a thousand: for the LORD your God, he it is that fights for you, as he has promised you.
Take good heed therefore to yourselves, that you love the LORD your God.
Else if you do in any wise go back, and join to the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in to them, and they to you:
Know for a certainty that the LORD your God will no more drive out any of these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps to you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from off this good land which the LORD your God has given you.
And, behold, this day I am going the way of all the earth: and you know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing has failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spoke concerning you; all are come to pass to you, and not one thing has failed thereof.
Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all good things are come on you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring on you all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God has given you.
