* And Joshua said , Alas , O Lord GOD , wherefore hast thou at all broughtthis people over Jordan , to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites , to destroy us ? would to God we had been content , and dwelt on the other side Jordan ! * O Lord , what shall I say , when Israel turneth their backs before their enemies ! * For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear of it , and shall environ us round , and cut off our name from the earth : and what wilt thou do unto thy great name ? * And the LORD said unto Joshua , Get thee up ; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face ? * Israel hath sinned , and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them : for they have even taken of the accursed thing , and have also stolen , and dissembled also , and they have put it even among their own stuff .
