¹² So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.

³³ There we saw those great men, the sons of Anak, offspring of the Nephilim: and we seemed to ourselves no more than insects, and so we seemed to them.

²⁸ But the people living in the land are strong, and the towns are walled and very great; further, we saw the children of Anak there.

¹³ I am able to do all things through him who gives me strength.

³¹ What may we say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?

³³ Who through faith overcame kingdoms, did righteousness, got their reward, kept the mouths of lions shut,

¹⁰ All the nations have come round me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.

¹¹ They are round me, yes, they are all about me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.

¹² They are round me like bees; but they are put out like a fire among thorns; for in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.

¹² Through God we will do great things, for through him our haters will be crushed under our feet.

³ For they did not make the land theirs by their swords, and it was not their arms which kept them safe; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your face, because you had pleasure in them.

¹ <Of David.> The Lord is my light and my salvation; who is then a cause of fear to me? the Lord is the strength of my life; who is a danger to me?

² When evil-doers, even my haters, came on me to put an end to me, they were broken and put to shame.

³ Even if an army came against me with its tents, my heart would have no fear: if war was made on me, my faith would not be moved.

³² God puts a strong band about me, guiding me in a straight way.

³³ He makes my feet like roes' feet, and puts me on high places.

³⁴ He makes my hands expert in war, so that a bow of brass is bent by my arms.

¹¹ And Asa made prayer to the Lord his God and said, Lord, you only are able to give help against the strong to him who has no strength; come to our help, O Lord our God, for our hope is in you, and in your name we have come out against this great army. O Lord, you are our God; let not man's power be greater than yours.

⁶ And Jonathan said to his young servant who had his arms, Come, let us go over to the armies of these men who have no circumcision: it may be that the Lord will give us help, for there is no limit to his power; the Lord is able to give salvation by a great army or by a small band.

²⁰ And they gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said; and he took the land of the three sons of Anak, driving them out from there.

¹⁴ And the three sons of Anak, Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak, were forced out from there by Caleb.

²¹ And Joshua came at that time and put an end to the Anakim in the hill-country, in Hebron, in Debir, in Anab, and in all the hill-country of Judah and Israel: Joshua gave them and their towns to the curse.

²² Not one of the Anakim was to be seen in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, some were still living.

³⁴ And the Lord said to Moses, Have no fear of him: for I have given him up into your hands, with all his people and his land; do to him as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, at Heshbon.

⁸ And if the Lord has delight in us, he will take us into this land and give it to us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

⁹ Only, do not go against the Lord or go in fear of the people of the land, for they will be our food; their strength has been taken from them and the Lord is with us: have no fear of them.
