Joshua 3:8

3:8 Instruct the priests carrying the ark of the covenant, ‘When you reach the bank of the Jordan River, wade into the water.’”

Joshua 10:19

10:19 But don’t you delay! Chase your enemies and catch them! Don’t allow them to retreat to their cities, for the Lord your God is handing them over to you.”

tn Heb “the edge of the waters of the Jordan.” The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied for clarity.

tn Heb “stand in the Jordan.” Here the repetition of the word “Jordan” would be redundant according to contemporary English style, so it was not included in the translation.

tn Heb “But [as for] you, don’t stand still, chase after your enemies and attack them from the rear.”

tn Or “enter into.”

tn Heb “has given them into your hand.” The verbal form is a perfect of certitude, emphasizing the certainty of the action.
