nkjv Judges:2:21-23
nkjv@Judges:2:21 @ I also will no longer drive out before them any of the nations which Joshua left when he died,
nkjv@Judges:2:22 @ so that through them I may test Israel, whether they will keep the ways of the LORD, to walk in them as their fathers kept them, or not."
nkjv@Judges:2:23 @ Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them out immediately; nor did He deliver them into the hand of Joshua.
