rsv@Judges:2:21 @ I will not henceforth drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died,
rsv@Judges:2:22 @ that by them I may test Israel, whether they will take care to walk in the way of the LORD as their fathers did, or not."
rsv@Judges:2:23 @ So the LORD left those nations, not driving them out at once, and he did not give them into the power of Joshua.
