21I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
21I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
18 Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for them, he was with the judge and saved them out of the hands of their enemies as long as the judge lived; for the LORD had compassion on them as they groaned under those who oppressed and afflicted them.
19 But when the judge died, the people returned to ways even more corrupt than those of their fathers, following other gods and serving and worshiping them. They refused to give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.
20 Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel and said, "Because this nation has violated the covenant that I laid down for their forefathers and has not listened to me,
21 I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
22 I will use them to test Israel and see whether they will keep the way of the LORD and walk in it as their forefathers did."
23 The LORD had allowed those nations to remain; he did not drive them out at once by giving them into the hands of Joshua.
2:21I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
2:21I also will not destroy the nations which Josue left, when he died:
2:21I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died;
2:21I will not henceforth drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died,
2:21I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
2:21I also will not henceforth drive out from before them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
2:21I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died;
2:21I also continue not to dispossess any from before them of the nations which Joshua hath left when he dieth,
2:21I also will not from now on drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died:
