Context of Joshua 24:11
9Then Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, rose and fought against Israel. He even sent and called for Balaam son of Beor to curse you. 10But I refused to listen to Balaam; instead, he had to keep blessing you. Thus I delivered you from his hand. “Then you crossed over the Jordan and came to Jericho, but the men of Jericho fought against you—the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Hivites and the Jebusites—but I delivered them into your hand. 12Then I sent the hornet before you and it drove them out from before you—the two kings of the Amorites—not by your sword or your bow. 13I gave you a land on which you had not labored, and cities that you had not built and you have settled in them, vineyards and olive groves that you had not planted, that you are eating.
