אָר֨וּר הָאִ֜ישׁ
cursing the=man
Joshua is speaking of any man who might possibly rebuild Jericho in the future, not of one particular man. If it would be helpful in your language, use a more natural phrase. Alternate translation: “Cursed is any man”
6:26 Joshua placed a curse upon the site because Jericho was the first Canaanite town to resist God’s purposes in bringing Israel into the land. Jericho was also the first town to experience God’s judgment upon Canaan’s great wickedness. As the firstfruits of Israel’s conquest of Canaan, it belonged to God (Exod 13:2; 23:19). God executed Joshua’s curse on the first man to defy it (1 Kgs 16:34; cp. Josh 7).
