Joshua 24:8 in Context — Joshua 24

6 Y saqué á vuestros padres de Egipto: y como llegaron á la mar, los Egipcios siguieron á vuestros padres hasta el mar Bermejo con carros y caballería.

7 Y como ellos clamasen á Jehová, él puso oscuridad entre vosotros y los Egipcios, é hizo venir sobre ellos la mar, la cual los cubrió: y vuestros ojos vieron lo que hice en Egipto. Después estuvisteis muchos días en el desierto.

8 Y os introduje en la tierra de los Amorrheos, que habitaban de la otra parte del Jordán, los cuales pelearon contra vosotros; mas yo los entregué en vuestras manos, y poseísteis su tierra, y los destruí de delante de vosotros.

9 Y levantóse después Balac hijo de Sephor, rey de los Moabitas, y peleó contra Israel; y envió á llamar á Balaam hijo de Beor, para que os maldijese.

10 Mas yo no quise escuchar á Balaam, antes os bendijo repetidamente, y os libré de sus manos.
