JOSUA 23:13

så skal I vide for vist, at HERREN eders Gud ikke mere vil drive disse Folkeslag bort fra eder, men de skal blive eder en Snare og en Fælde, en Svøbe i eders Sider og Torne i eders Øjne, indtil I selv bliver udryddet fra dette herlige Land, som HERREN eders Gud gav eder.

Know for a certainty that the LORD your God will no more drive out any of these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.
