Yosua 22:16-17

22:16 “The entire community of the Lord says, ‘Why have you disobeyed the God of Israel by turning back today from following the Lord? You built an altar for yourselves and have rebelled today against the Lord. ¹  22:17 The sin we committed at Peor was bad enough. To this very day we have not purified ourselves; it even brought a plague on the community of the Lord. ² 

Yosua 22:24

22:24 We swear we have done this because we were worried that ³  in the future your descendants would say to our descendants, ‘What relationship do you have with the Lord God of Israel? ⁴ 

[22:16]  ¹ tn Heb “What is this unfaithfulness with which you have been unfaithful against the God of Israel, turning today from after the Lord, when you built for yourselves an altar, rebelling today against the Lord?”

[22:17]  ² tn Heb “Was the sin of Peor too insignificant for us, from which we have not made purification to this day? And there was a plague in the assembly of the Lord.”

[22:24]  ³ tn Heb “Surely, from worry concerning a matter we have done this, saying.”

[22:24]  ⁴ tn Heb “What is there to you and to the Lord God of Israel?” The rhetorical question is sarcastic in tone and anticipates a response, “Absolutely none!”
