Joshua 7:8

Ah Lord! what shall I say after Israel have turned their backs before their enemies?

And now, what shall we say, our God, after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments,

I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look forth to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer as to my reproof.

But if our unrighteousness commend God's righteousness, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak according to man.

O Lord, what shall I say, when Israel turneth their backs before their enemies!

And now, what shall we say, our God, after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments,

I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look forth to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer as to my reproof.

But if our unrighteousness commend God's righteousness, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak according to man.

Go not up, for Jehovah is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies;
