Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
NOW THESE are the nations which the Lord left to prove Israel by them, that is, all in Israel who had not previously experienced war in Canaan;
Now these are the nations which Jehovah left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
These are the nations that the LORD left to test all those Israelites who had no firsthand knowledge of the wars of Canaan.
These are the nations which the Lord left, so that by them he might instruct Israel and all who had not known the wars of the Canaanites,
