Therefore the children of Israel can’t stand before their enemies. They turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become devoted for destruction. I will not be with you any more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.

ગુજરાતીયહોશુઆ ૭:૧૨
એ કારણથી, ઇઝરાયલના લોકો પોતાના શત્રુઓ આગળ ટકી શક્યા નહી, તેઓએ પોતાના શત્રુઓ સામે પીઠ ફેરવી છે, તેથી તેઓ શાપિત થયા છે. જે શાપિત વસ્તુ હજુ સુધી તમારી પાસે છે, તેનો જો તમે નાશ નહિ કરો તો હું તમારી સાથે કદી રહીશ નહી.
हिन्दीयहोशू ७:१२
इस कारण इस्राएली अपने शत्रुओं के सामने खड़े नहीं रह सकते; वे अपने शत्रुओं को पीठ दिखाते हैं, इसलिए कि वे आप अर्पण की वस्तु बन गए हैं। और यदि तुम अपने मध्य में से अर्पण की वस्तु सत्यानाश न कर डालोगे, तो मैं आगे को तुम्हारे संग नहीं रहूँगा।

In context

10The LORD said to Joshua, “Get up! Why have you fallen on your face like that?

11Israel has sinned. Yes, they have even transgressed my covenant which I commanded them. Yes, they have even taken some of the devoted things, and have also stolen, and also deceived. They have even put it among their own stuff.

12Therefore the children of Israel can’t stand before their enemies. They turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become devoted for destruction. I will not be with you any more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.

13Get up! Sanctify the people, and say, ‘Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, for the LORD, the God of Israel, says, “There is a devoted thing among you, Israel. You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the devoted thing from among you.”

14In the morning therefore you shall be brought near by your tribes. It shall be that the tribe which the LORD selects shall come near by families. The family which the LORD selects shall come near by households. The household which the LORD selects shall come near man by man.
