Joshua 14:12

14:12 Now, assign me this hill country which the Lord promised me at that time! No doubt you heard at that time that the Anakites live there in large, fortified cities. ¹  But, assuming the Lord is with me, I will conquer ²  them, as the Lord promised.”

Joshua 15:19

15:19 She answered, “Please give me a special present. ³  Since you have given me land in the Negev, now give me springs of water. So he gave her both upper and lower springs.

[14:12]  ¹ tn Heb “are there and large, fortified cities.”

[14:12]  ² tn Or “will dispossess.”

[15:19]  ³ tn Elsewhere this Hebrew word (בְּרָכָה, bÿrakhah) is often translated “blessing,” but here it refers to a gift (as in Gen 33:11; 1 Sam 25:27; 30:26; and 2 Kgs 5:15).
