Joshua 23:13-15
New English Translation

13 know for certain that the Lord your God will no longer drive out these nations from before you. They will trap and ensnare you;[a] they will be a whip that tears[b] your sides and thorns that blind[c] your eyes until you disappear[d] from this good land the Lord your God gave you.

14 “Look, today I am about to die.[e] You know with all your heart and being[f] that not even one of all the faithful promises the Lord your God made to you is left unfulfilled; every one was realized—not one promise is unfulfilled![g] 15 But in the same way every faithful promise the Lord your God made to you has been realized,[h] it is just as certain that if you disobey, then the Lord will bring on you every judgment[i] until he destroys you from this good land that the Lord your God gave 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)
