Joshua 7:7-9

New American Standard Bible

⁷ And Joshua said, “Oh, Lord ^[a]God! Why did You ever bring this people across the Jordan, only to hand us over to the Amorites, to eliminate us? If only we had been willing ^[b]to live beyond the Jordan! ⁸ O Lord, what can I say since Israel has turned their ^[c]back before their enemies? ^9 (A)For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear about it, and they will surround us and eliminate our name from the earth. And what will You do for Your great name?”
