Joshua 24:8

And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, which dwelt on the other side Jordan; and they fought with you: and I gave them into your hand, that ye might possess their land; and I destroyed them from before you.

KJV

et introduxi vos in terram Amorrhæi, qui habitabat trans Jordanem. Cumque pugnarent contra vos, tradidi eos in manus vestras, et possedistis terram eorum, atque interfecistis eos.

Vulgate

καὶ ἤγαγεν ἡμᾶς εἰς γῆν Ἀμορραίων τῶν κατοικούντων πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, καὶ παραδέδωκεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος εἰς τὰς χεῖρας ἡμῶν· καὶ κατεκληρονομήσατε τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξωλεθρεύσατε αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν.

LXX

And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, that dwelt beyond the Jordan: and they fought with you; and I gave them into your hand, and ye possessed their land; and I destroyed them from before you.
