²⁴ So the children went in and took the land, and you overcame before them the people of the land, the Canaanites, and gave them up into their hands, with their kings and the people of the land, so that they might do with them whatever it was their pleasure to do.

²³ So Joshua took all the land, as the Lord had said to Moses; and Joshua gave it to the children of Israel as their heritage, making division of it among them by their tribes. And the land had rest from war.

¹ And all the meeting of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh and put up the Tent of meeting there: and the land was crushed before them.

⁴³ So the Lord gave to Israel all the land which he gave by oath to their fathers; so it became their heritage and their living-place.

² Uprooting the nations with your hand, and planting our fathers in their place; cutting down the nations, but increasing the growth of your people.

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.

³¹ And your little ones, whom you said would come into strange hands, I will take in, and they will see the land which you would not have.

⁴⁵ The Lord kept faith with the house of Israel about all the good which he said he would do for them, and all his words came true.

¹⁸ Is not the Lord your God with you? and has he not given you rest on every side? for the Lord has given the people of the land into my hands, and the land is overcome before the Lord and before his people.

²⁶ And so they may get themselves free from the net of the Evil One, being made the prisoners of the Lord's servant, for the purpose of God.
