Joshua left some nations in the land when he died. I will no longer drive out those nations to make room for Israel.

所以约书亚死的时候所剩下的各族，我必不再从他们面前赶出，

约书亚死的时候所剩下的各国，我必不再从他们面前赶出任何一个，

约书亚死的时候所剩下的各国，我必不再从他们面前赶出任何一个，

因此，我不再逐出约书亚去世时还没有赶走的外族人，

因此，约书亚死后仍剩下来的列国，我也不再从他们面前赶走，

所以約書亞死的時候所剩下的各族，我必不再從他們面前趕出，

約書亞死的時候所剩下的各國，我必不再從他們面前趕出任何一個，

約書亞死的時候所剩下的各國，我必不再從他們面前趕出任何一個，

因此，我不再逐出約書亞去世時還沒有趕走的外族人，

因此，約書亞死後仍剩下來的列國，我也不再從他們面前趕走，

我也不再把約書亞死那時候所遺留下的列國人從他們面前趕出，

故約書亞卒時所遺諸族、我必不復逐之、

故其他族類、約書亞在時未行殲滅者、我必不驅逐、

故約書亞卒時所遺留諸族、我不復逐一人於斯民前、

I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.

I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died,

I will no longer drive out the nations that Joshua left unconquered when he died.

I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.

I in turn will no longer drive out from them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died,

I also will no longer drive out before them any 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;

I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.

I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which 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 no longer drive out any of the nations that Joshua left when he died from before them;

Then you can be sure of what the Lord your God will do. He won’t drive out those nations to make room for you anymore. Instead, they will become traps and snares for you. They will be like whips on your backs. They will be like thorns in your eyes. All that will continue until you are destroyed. It will continue until you are removed from this good land. It’s the land the Lord your God has given you.

I have said something else. I said,‘ I will not drive out those people to make room for you. They and their gods will become traps for you.’ ”

So he left the five rulers of the Philistines. He left the people of Canaan and the people of Sidon. He left the Hivites living in the Lebanon mountains. They lived in the area between Mount Baal Hermon and Lebo Hamath.

They had not obeyed my laws. They had turned their backs on my rules. They had misused my Sabbath days. They only wanted to worship the statues of their parents’ gods.
