וַיַּנַּח יְהוָה אֶת־הַגּוֹיִם הָאֵלֶּה לְבִלְתִּי הוֹרִישָׁם מַהֵר וְלֹא נְתָנָם בְּיַד־יְהוֹשֻֽׁעַ
So the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered He them into the hand of Joshua.
וְאֵלֶּה הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר הִנִּיחַ יְהוָה לְנַסּוֹת בָּם אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֵת כָּל־אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא־יָדְעוּ אֵת כָּל־מִלְחֲמוֹת כְּנָֽעַן
Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to prove Israel by them, even as many as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
רַק לְמַעַן דַּעַת דֹּרוֹת בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל לְלַמְּדָם מִלְחָמָה רַק אֲשֶׁר־לְפָנִים לֹא יְדָעֽוּם
only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as beforetime knew nothing thereof;
חֲמֵשֶׁת סַרְנֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים וְכָל־הַֽכְּנַעֲנִי וְהַצִּידֹנִי וְהַחִוִּי יֹשֵׁב הַר הַלְּבָנוֹן מֵהַר בַּעַל חֶרְמוֹן עַד לְבוֹא חֲמָֽת
namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Zidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt in mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-hermon unto the entrance of Hamath.
וַֽיִּהְיוּ לְנַסּוֹת בָּם אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל לָדַעַת הֲיִשְׁמְעוּ אֶת־מִצְוֺת יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּה אֶת־אֲבוֹתָם בְּיַד־מֹשֶֽׁה
And they were there, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the LORD, which He commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
