23. Formal Translation So Joshua took all the land, just as the LORD {Yahweh, Promise Fulfiller} had spoken to Moses; and Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war. |
23. Dynamic Translation Joshua captured the entire land exactly as the LORD {Yahweh, Faithful Keeper of His Word} had told Moses. He assigned each tribe its share as an inheritance, and then the land enjoyed peace from fighting. |
