tn Heb “Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day the Lord placed the Amorites before the sons of Israel and he said in the eyes of Israel.” It is uncertain whether the phrase “before the sons of Israel” modifies the verb “placed” (as in the present translation, “delivered the Amorites over to the Israelites”) or the verb “spoke” (“Joshua spoke to the Lord before the sons of Israel in the day the Lord delivered over the Amorites”).

tn Or “perishes” (this might refer to spoiling, but is more focused on the temporary nature of this kind of food).

tn The referent (the food) has been specified for clarity by repeating the word “food” from the previous clause.

tn Grk “on this one.”

10 tn Or “dull.”
