Joshua 23:13-15
EasyEnglish Bible
13 If you do that, the Lord your God will not chase them out in front of you any more. Instead, those nations will become a danger for you. They will be like a trap that catches you. They will be like sticks that beat your backs, and like sharp thorns in your eyes. They will bring trouble to you until none of you remain in this good land that the Lord your God has given to you.
14 I will soon die, as all men do. The Lord your God has done everything that he promised you he would do. Deep inside yourselves, you know that is true. He has not failed to do even one thing that he promised. 15 The Lord has given to you every good thing that he has promised. But if you refuse to obey him, he will also punish you in every way that he has promised. He will destroy you so that you no longer live in this good land that he has given to you.

Joshua 23:13-15
New International Version
13 then you may be sure that the Lord your God will no longer drive out(A) these nations before you. Instead, they will become snares(B) and traps for you, whips on your backs and thorns in your eyes,(C) until you perish from this good land,(D) which the Lord your God has given you.
14 “Now I am about to go the way of all the earth.(E) You know with all your heart and soul that not one of all the good promises the Lord your God gave you has failed. Every promise(F) has been fulfilled; not one has failed.(G) 15 But just as all the good things(H) the Lord your God has promised you have come to you, so he will bring on you all the evil things(I) he has threatened, until the Lord your God has destroyed you(J) from this good land he has given you.(K)
