¹⁷ So David’s fame^(A) spread throughout every land, and the Lord made all the nations fear^(B) him.

²⁵ This very day I will begin to put the terror^(A) and fear^(B) of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble^(C) and be in anguish because of you.”

²⁷ So the Lord was with Joshua,^(A) and his fame spread^(B) throughout the land.

²⁴ They answered Joshua, “Your servants were clearly told^(A) how the Lord your God had commanded his servant Moses to give you the whole land and to wipe out all its inhabitants from before you. So we feared for our lives because of you, and that is why we did this.

⁹ and said to them, “I know that the Lord has given you this land and that a great fear^(A) of you has fallen on us, so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you. ¹⁰ We have heard how the Lord dried up^(B) the water of the Red Sea^[a] for you when you came out of Egypt,^(C) and what you did to Sihon and Og,^(D) the two kings of the Amorites^(E) east of the Jordan,^(F) whom you completely destroyed.^{[b](G) 11} When we heard of it, our hearts melted in fear^(H) and everyone’s courage failed^(I) because of you,^(J) for the Lord your God^(K) is God in heaven above and on the earth^(L) below.
