એમ તે લોકોએ અંદર પ્રવેશ કરીને તે દેશનો કબજો લીધો, તમે તેઓની સામે તે દેશના રહેવાસીઓ કનાનીઓને પરાજિત કર્યા. તેઓ તેઓની સાથે પોતાની મરજી પ્રમાણે વર્તે તે માટે તેઓને, તેઓના રાજાઓને તથા તે દેશના લોકોને તેઓના હાથમાં સોંપ્યા.

In context

22Moreover you gave them kingdoms and peoples, which you allotted according to their portions. So they possessed the land of Sihon, even the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.

23You also multiplied their children as the stars of the sky, and brought them into the land concerning which you said to their fathers that they should go in to possess it.

24“So the children went in and possessed the land; and you subdued before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gave them into their hands, with their kings and the peoples of the land, that they might do with them as they pleased.

25They took fortified cities and a rich land, and possessed houses full of all good things, cisterns dug out, vineyards, olive groves, and fruit trees in abundance. So they ate, were filled, became fat, and delighted themselves in your great goodness.

26“Nevertheless they were disobedient and rebelled against you, cast your law behind their back, killed your prophets that testified against them to turn them again to you, and they committed awful blasphemies.
