# Connecting Statement:
In these verses, the Levites continue to praise Yahweh in the presence of the people of Israel.
# you gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands
Here "hand" represents power or control. See how you translated these words in [Nehemiah 9:27](../09/27.md). Alternate translation: "you allowed the peoples of the lands to defeat them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
# you gave
Yahweh gave
# peoples of the lands
"the neighboring peoples" or "the peoples of the lands near them"
