1 tn Heb “Get up!”

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

3 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.”

4 tn Heb “For you will cause these people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give to them.” The pronoun “them” at the end of the verse refers to either the people or to the fathers.

5 tn Heb “Surely the Lord has given into our hand all the land.” The report by the spies uses the Hebrew perfect, suggesting certitude.

6 tn Heb “are melting away because of us.”

7 tn Heb “said.”

8 tn Heb “from the ambush.”

9 tn Heb “take possession of.”

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

11 tn Heb “and not a man [or “one”] of them will stand before you.”
