Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
הָעָם֙
the,people
As in 6:5 and 6:10, the phrase the people refers to the Israelite soldiers. Alternate translation: “the Israelite soldiers”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
נָתַ֧ן יְהוָ֛ה לָכֶ֖ם אֶת־הָעִֽיר
he/it_gave YHWH to/for=you_all DOM the=city
Joshua is using the past tense in order to refer to something that Yahweh will do in the future. He is doing this to show that the event will certainly happen. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the future tense. See how you translated the similar expression in 6:2. Alternate translation: “Yahweh is about to give the city to you” or “Yahweh will certainly give the city to you”
