¹ tn Heb “And we heard and our heart[s] melted and there remained no longer breath in a man because of you.”

² tn Heb “Joshua, son of Nun, sent from Shittim two men, spies, secretly, saying.”

³ tn Heb “go, see the land, and Jericho.”

⁴ tn Heb “they went and entered the house of a woman, a prostitute, and her name was Rahab, and they slept there.”

⁵ tn Heb “to enter to possess the land which the Lord your God is giving to you to possess it.”

⁶ tn Heb “Get up!”

⁷ tn Heb “this Jordan”; the word “River” has been supplied in the translation for clarity (likewise in v. 11).

⁸ tc Heb “Cross over this Jordan, you and all these people, to the land that I am giving to them, to the children of Israel.” The final phrase, “to the children of Israel,” is probably a later scribal addition specifying the identity of “these people/them.”

⁹ tn Or “live.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “until he stands before the assembly for judgment.”

¹¹ tn Heb “until the death of the high priest who is in those days.”

¹² tn Heb “may return and enter his city and his house, the city from which he escaped.”

¹³ sn He does whatever he pleases. Such sovereignty is characteristic of kings (see Eccl 8:3).

¹⁴ tc The present translation reads כְּלָא (kÿla’), with many medieval Hebrew MSS, rather than כְּלָה (kÿlah) of BHS.

¹⁵ tn Aram “strikes against.”
