卻其兵刃、臨陳不使之卓立兮、

爾僕持刃、其鋒頓挫、戰鬥不利兮、

使其刀劍挫刃無鋒、使之爭戰時不得立穩、

敵人蒙提拔。洋洋喜氣騰。

Indeed, you have turned back the edge of his sword and have not supported him in battle.

“ Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. His arm has not been put in a cast so that it may heal. Neither has it been bound up with a splint to make it strong enough to hold a sword.Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am the enemy of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt! I will break both of his arms— the good arm along with the broken one— and I will make his sword clatter to the ground.I will scatter the Egyptians to many lands throughout the world.I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king and put my sword in his hand. But I will break the arms of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and he will lie there mortally wounded, groaning in pain.I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, while the arms of Pharaoh fall useless to his sides. And when I put my sword in the hand of Babylon’s king and he brings it against the land of Egypt, Egypt will know that I am the Lord.

You make us retreat from our enemies and allow those who hate us to plunder our land.

“ And for those of you who survive, I will demoralize you in the land of your enemies. You will live in such fear that the sound of a leaf driven by the wind will send you fleeing. You will run as though fleeing from a sword, and you will fall even when no one pursues you.Though no one is chasing you, you will stumble over each other as though fleeing from a sword. You will have no power to stand up against your enemies.

So approximately 3,000 warriors were sent, but they were soundly defeated. The men of Aichased the Israelites from the town gate as far as the quarries, and they killed about thirty six who were retreating down the slope. The Israelites were paralyzed with fear at this turn of events, and their courage melted away.

If you let them go with your troops into battle, you will be defeated by the enemy no matter how well you fight. God will overthrow you, for he has the power to help you or to trip you up.”

Lord, what can I say now that Israel has fled from its enemies?For when the Canaanites and all the other people living in the land hear about it, they will surround us and wipe our name off the face of the earth. And then what will happen to the honor of your great name?”But the Lord said to Joshua,“ Get up! Why are you lying on your face like this?Israel has sinned and broken my covenant! They have stolen some of the things that I commanded must be set apart for me. And they have not only stolen them but have lied about it and hidden the things among their own belongings.That is why the Israelites are running from their enemies in defeat. For now Israel itself has been set apart for destruction. I will not remain with you any longer unless you destroy the things among you that were set apart for destruction.

Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in those hills came down and attacked them and chased them back as far as Hormah.

Do not go up into the land now. You will only be crushed by your enemies because the Lord is not with you.
