Judges 2:21-23
Jubilee Bible 2000
21 neither will I drive out any longer from before them any of these Gentiles which Joshua left when he died,
22 that through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the LORD by walking therein as their fathers kept it, or not.
23 Therefore, the LORD left those Gentiles, without driving them out hastily; neither did he deliver them into the hand of Joshua.

Judges 2:21-23
New International Version
21 I will no longer drive out(A) before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died. 22 I will use them to test(B) Israel and see whether they will keep the way of the Lord and walk in it as their ancestors did.” 23 The Lord had allowed those nations to remain; he did not drive them out at once by giving them into the hands of Joshua.(C)
