OET (OET-LV) And_it_was just_as it_has_come on_you(pl) every_of (the)_message (the)_good which YHWH he_spoke god_of_your(pl) to_you(pl) so YHWH he_will_bring on_you(pl) DOM every_of (the)_message (the)_bad until he_has_destroyed you(pl) from_under the_soil (the)_good (the)_this which he_has_given to/for_you(pl) YHWH god_of_your(pl).

OET (OET-RV) And just like all those good things came true, so too Yahweh will send all the punishments he promised you all if you disobey him, even if it means that he destroys you all from this good land that he’s given you.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 23:1–16: Joshua warned the Israelites to continue to obey Yahweh

Joshua gave this farewell speech to the Israelites when he was near the end of his life. This section connects back to Joshua 13:1 which says that Joshua was very old, and to Joshua 21:44 which says that God had given the Israelites rest.Butler, p. 254. The text does not say where Joshua gave this farewell speech, but it may have taken place at Shiloh.Woudstra, p. 332.

Here is another possible section heading:

Joshua’s farewell speech to the Israelites

23:15a

But just as every good thing the LORD your God promised you has come to pass,

But: The Hebrew conjunction that the BSB translates as But indicates a contrast. God has blessed them, but if they disobey him, he will curse them. Some English versions do not translate this conjunction. Use a connecting word that is natural in your language.

just as: The Hebrew prepositional phrase that the BSB translates as just as introduces a comparison. It connects with the word “likewise” in 15b.

15a Just as God has given good things to them, 15blikewise he will give evil things to them if they break their covenant with him.

every good thing the LORD your God promised you: This clause uses almost the same Hebrew words as the clause in 23:14c.

has come to pass: The Hebrew clause that the BSB translates as has come to pass is more literally “have come upon you.”

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

But, in the same way that all the promises Yahweh your God made to you have happened…

All the good promises that Yahweh your God spoke to you have come true. In the same way…

23:15b

likewise the LORD will bring upon you the calamity He has threatened,

likewise: The Hebrew word that the BSB translates as likewise introduces the second part of the comparison.

the LORD will bring upon you the calamity He has threatened: Here are some other ways to translate the word calamity:

judgments (NET)

threat (GNT)

warnings (NASB)

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

so also Yahweh will cause every evil thing to happen

in the same way, he will make all the judgments which he spoke come true

23:15c

until He has destroyed you from this good land He has given you.

until He has destroyed you from this good land He has given you: This part of the verse is like verse 23:13c. In that verse the Hebrew verb that means “die” is used. In this verse the Hebrew verb that means “destroy” is used. Some English versions such as GNT do not translate this clause because the information was already stated in that verse.

Here are some other ways to translate this part of the verse:

until he has destroyed you. Then you will no longer live in this good land that Yahweh your God has given to you.

That will happen until he has destroyed you and none of you is left in this good land that he has given you.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

בָּ֤א עֲלֵי⁠כֶם֙ כָּל־הַ⁠דָּבָ֣ר הַ⁠טּ֔וֹב אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבֶּ֛ר יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵי⁠כֶ֖ם אֲלֵי⁠כֶ֑ם

he/it_came on,you(pl) all/each/any/every (the),word (the),good which/who he/it_had_said YHWH God_of,your(pl) to,you(pl)

Joshua is speaking of the good word Yahweh spoke as if it were a living thing that could come upon someone. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [everything good that Yahweh your God promised has happened to you]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

אֵ֚ת כָּל־הַ⁠דָּבָ֣ר הָ⁠רָ֔ע

DOM all/each/any/every (the),word (the),bad

Joshua is using the term word by association to mean the warnings that Yahweh gave using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: [all the punishments that he warned about]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

23:12-16 Apostasy—turning away from the true God—is fatal.
• Because God is holy, Joshua could speak with optimism regarding God’s promises and the good land into which God had brought them. God will not change his holy character even if his people change. The rebellion of God’s people cannot damage his holiness, but rebellion will destroy those who rebel.

OET (OET-LV) And_it_was just_as it_has_come on_you(pl) every_of (the)_message (the)_good which YHWH he_spoke god_of_your(pl) to_you(pl) so YHWH he_will_bring on_you(pl) DOM every_of (the)_message (the)_bad until he_has_destroyed you(pl) from_under the_soil (the)_good (the)_this which he_has_given to/for_you(pl) YHWH god_of_your(pl).

OET (OET-RV) And just like all those good things came true, so too Yahweh will send all the punishments he promised you all if you disobey him, even if it means that he destroys you all from this good land that he’s given you.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.OET logo mark
