NASB
"So the LORD allowed those nations to remain, not driving them out quickly; and He did not give them into the hand of Joshua."
— Judges 2:23, NASB
“Therefore the Lord left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua. ”
“So Jehovah left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua. ”
“So Yahweh left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua.”
“This is why the LORD permitted these nations to remain and did not conquer them immediately; he did not hand them over to Joshua.”
“The Lord therefore left all these nations, and would not quickly destroy them, neither did he deliver them into the hands of Josue. ”
“So the Lord let those nations go on living in the land, not driving them out quickly, and did not give them up into the hands of Joshua.”
“Therefore the Lord left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua. ”
So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He said, "Because this nation has transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers and has not listened to My voice,
I also will no longer drive out before them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died,
in order to test Israel by them, whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk in it as their fathers did, or not."
So the LORD allowed those nations to remain, not driving them out quickly; and He did not give them into the hand of Joshua.
