# They will surround us and make the people of the earth forget our name
Making people forget the name of the Israelites represents making them forget the Israelites. In this case they would do it by killing the Israelites. Alternate translation: "They will surround us and kill us, and the people of the earth will forget about us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
"They will surround us and kill us, and the people of the earth will forget about us"
# for your great name
The phrase "your great name" here represents God's reputation and power. Alternate translation: "And so what will you do so that people will know that you are great" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
# What will you do for your great name?
Joshua uses this question to warn God that if the Israelites are destroyed, then the other people will think that God is not great. Alternate translation: "Then there will be nothing you can do for your great name." or "Then people will not know that you are great." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
"And so what will you do so that people will know that you are great"
