A long time ¹  passed after the Lord made Israel secure from all their enemies, ²  and Joshua was very old. ³ 

After a long time had passed and the LORD had given Israel rest from all their enemies around them, Joshua, by then old and well advanced in years,

Now it came about after many days, when the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their enemies on every side, and Joshua was old, advanced in years,

The years passed, and the LORD had given the people of Israel rest from all their enemies. Joshua, who was now very old,

A long time later, after GOD had given Israel rest from all their surrounding enemies, and Joshua was a venerable old man,

Now after a long time, when the Lord had given Israel rest from wars on every side, and Joshua was old and full of years,

A long time afterward, when the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their enemies all around, and Joshua was old and well advanced in years,

Now it came to pass, a long time after the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua was old, advanced in age.
