Joshua 24:9-11

International Standard Version

⁹ ‘Then Zippor’s son, King Balak of Moab, showed up and fought against Israel. He sent word^[a] to Balaam, summoning Beor’s son to put a curse on you. ¹⁰ But I wasn’t willing to listen to Balaam. So he had to bless you, and I delivered you from his control.

¹¹ ‘Next, you crossed the Jordan River and arrived at Jericho. But the citizens of Jericho fought you, as did the Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, and the Jebusites, so I gave them into your control.
