"I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died;"
— Judges 2:21, World English Bible
“I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:”
“I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died; ”
“So I will no longer remove before them any of the nations that Joshua left unconquered when he died,”
“I also will not destroy the nations which Josue left when he died:”
“From now on I will not go on driving out from before them any of the nations which at the death of Joshua were still living in this land;”
“I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:”
When Yahweh raised them up judges, then Yahweh was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it grieved Yahweh because of their groaning by reason of those who oppressed them and troubled them.
But it happened, when the judge was dead, that they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down to them; they didn't cease from their doings, nor from their stubborn way.
The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel; and he said, "Because this nation have transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not listened to my voice;
I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died;
that by them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of Yahweh to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not."
So Yahweh left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.
