SLTHear, Israel: Thou passest this day over Jordan to go to possess nations great and strong above thee; cities great and fortified to the heavens:A people great and high, sons of Anakims, whom thou knewest, and thou heardest, Who shall stand before the sons of Anak?And know thou this day that Jehovah thy God he is passing over before thee; he is a consuming fire, he will destroy them, and he will humble them before thy face, and drive them out and destroy them quickly, as Jehovah spake to thee.Thou shalt not say in thy heart in Jehovah thy God’s thrusting them out from before thee, saying, For my justice Jehovah brought me forth to possess this land; and for the injustice of these nations Jehovah dispossessed them from before thee.Not for thy justice and for the straightness of thy heart thou goest in to possess this land, but for the injustice of these nations Jehovah thy God dispossesses them from before thee, and order to lift up the word which he sware to thy fathers, to Abraham and to Isaak and to Jacob.

Religious and Cultural Concepts in This Chapter

Yahweh’s victory

This chapter assures the Israelites that it is Yahweh who will empower them to conquer the Promised Land. The Israelites will not be strong enough on their own to conquer these other nations. This victory will be Yahweh’s. The people did not earn this victory, but it is Yahweh’s punishment of these sinful nations. (See: promisedland and sin)

Israel’s sin

Yahweh is about to punish the Canaanites for their sin. He also reminds Israel of their sin. This serves as a warning to the people of Israel. If they sin again, Yahweh will punish them too.

Translation Issues in This Chapter

“you”

When Moses is addressing the Israelites, he uses both the singular and plural forms of “you.”- vv. 1-6: “You” and “your” are singular.- vv. 7: See note.- vv. 8-9: “You” and “your” are plural.- vv. 16-25: “You” and “your” are plural.Although Moses is speaking to all the Israelites, he sometimes addresses them as “you” singular. If the singular forms of these pronouns would not be natural in your language, you could use the plural forms in your translation. (See: writing-pronouns and figs-youcrowd)
