Yosua 23:13

23:13 know for certain that the Lord our God will no longer drive out these nations from before you. They will trap and ensnare you; ³  they will be a whip that tears ⁴  your sides and thorns that blind ⁵  your eyes until you disappear ⁶  from this good land the Lord your God gave you.
