Joshua 24:13

Joshua Reviews Israel’s History

12I sent the hornet ahead of you, and it drove out the two Amorite kings before you, but not by your own sword or bow.13So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities that you did not build, and now you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.’
