Joshua 7:7-9
7:7 Joshua prayed, 1 “O, Master, Lord! Why did you bring these people across the Jordan to hand us over to the Amorites so they could destroy us?
7:8 If only we had been satisfied to live on the other side of the Jordan! O Lord, what can I say now that Israel has retreated 2 before its enemies?
7:9 When the Canaanites and all who live in the land hear about this, they will turn against us and destroy the very memory of us 3 from the earth. What will you do to protect your great reputation?” 4
