Joshua 10

1And it came to pass when Adoni-zedekH139 kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389 heardH8085 that JoshuaH3091 had takenH3920 Ai and had utterly destroyed it, that he had done to Ai and its kingH4428 as he had done to JerichoH3405 and its kingH4428, and that the inhabitantsH3427 of GibeonH1391 had madeH6213 peace with IsraelH3478, and were among them, 2that they fearedH3372 greatly; for GibeonH1391 was a greatH1419 cityH5892, as oneH259 of the royal citiesH5892, and it was greaterH1419 than Ai, and all its menH376 were mightyH1368. 3And Adoni-zedekH139 kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389 sentH7971 to Hoham kingH4428 of HebronH2275, and to Piream kingH4428 of JarmuthH3412, and to JaphiaH3309 kingH4428 of LachishH3923, and to DebirH1688 kingH4428 of EglonH5700, sayingH559, 4ComeH5927 up to me, and helpH5826 me, that we may smite GibeonH1391; for it has made peace with JoshuaH3091 and with the children of IsraelH3478. 5And the fiveH2568 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, the kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389, the kingH4428 of HebronH2275, the kingH4428 of JarmuthH3412, the kingH4428 of LachishH3923, [and] the kingH4428 of EglonH5700, gatheredH622 themselves together, and wentH5927 up, they and all their armiesH4264, and they encampedH2583 before GibeonH1391, and made war against it. 6And the menH376 of GibeonH1391 sentH7971 to JoshuaH3091, to the campH4264 at GilgalH1537, sayingH559, Withdraw not thy handH3027 from thy servantsH5650: comeH5927 up to us quicklyH4120, and saveH3467 us and helpH5826 us; for all the kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567 that dwellH3427 in the hill-country are gatheredH6908 against us. 7So JoshuaH3091 wentH5927 up from GilgalH1537, he and all the peopleH5971 of warH4421 with him, even all the valiant menH1368. 8And Jehovah saidH559 to JoshuaH3091, FearH3372 them not; for into thy handH3027 have I givenH5414 them: not a manH376 of them shall standH5975 before thee. 9And JoshuaH3091 cameH935 upon them suddenlyH6597; he wentH935 up from GilgalH1537 all nightH3915. 10And Jehovah discomfited them before IsraelH3478, and smote them [with] a greatH1419 slaughterH4347 at GibeonH1391; and he chased them on the wayH1870 of the ascent of Beth-horonH1032, and smote them up to AzekahH5825 and MakkedahH4719. 11And it came to pass, as they fledH5127 from before IsraelH3478, — they were at the descentH4174 of Beth-horonH1032, — that Jehovah castH7993 downH7993 greatH1419 stonesH68 from heavenH8064 upon them up to AzekahH5825, and they diedH4191. They were moreH4480 who diedH4191 with the hailstones than they whom the children of IsraelH3478 had slainH2026 with the swordH2719. 12ThenH227 spokeH1696 JoshuaH3091 to Jehovah in the dayH3117 when Jehovah gaveH5414 up the AmoritesH567 before the children of IsraelH3478, and he saidH559 in the sight of IsraelH3478, SunH8121, stand still upon GibeonH1391; And thou, moonH3394, in the valleyH6010 of Ajalon! 13And the sunH8121 stoodH5975 stillH5975, and the moonH3394 remainedH5975 where it was, until the nationH1471 had avengedH5358 themselves upon their enemiesH341. Is not this writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of Jasher? And the sunH8121 remainedH5975 standingH5975 in the midst of heavenH8064, and hasted not to goH935 down about a full dayH3117. 14And there wasH1961 no dayH3117 like that before it or after it, that Jehovah hearkened to the voiceH6963 of a manH376; for Jehovah foughtH3898 for IsraelH3478. 15And JoshuaH3091 returnedH7725, and all IsraelH3478 with him, to the campH4264, to GilgalH1537. 16And these fiveH2568 kingsH4428 fledH5127, and hidH2244 themselves in the caveH4631 at MakkedahH4719. 17And it was toldH5046 JoshuaH3091, sayingH559, The fiveH2568 kingsH4428 have been foundH4672, hidH2244 in the caveH4631 at MakkedahH4719. 18And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, RollH1556 greatH1419 stonesH68 before the mouthH6310 of the caveH4631, and set menH376 before it to keepH8104 them. 19And ye, stay not, pursueH7291 after your enemiesH341, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their citiesH5892; for Jehovah your 1GodH430 has givenH5414 them into your handH3027. 20And it cameH935 to pass when JoshuaH3091 and the children of IsraelH3478 had endedH8552 smiting them with a veryH3966 greatH1419 slaughterH4347, until they wereH1961 consumed, that the remnant which remained of them entered into fortified citiesH5892; 21and all the peopleH5971 returnedH7725 to the campH4264 to JoshuaH3091, at MakkedahH4719, in peaceH7965; none moved his tongueH3956 against the children of IsraelH3478. 22And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, OpenH6605 the mouthH6310 of the caveH4631, and bringH3318 forthH3318 to me those fiveH2568 kingsH4428 out of the caveH4631. 23And they did soH3651, and broughtH3318 forthH3318 to him those fiveH2568 kingsH4428 out of the caveH4631, the kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389, the kingH4428 of HebronH2275, the kingH4428 of JarmuthH3412, the kingH4428 of LachishH3923, the kingH4428 of EglonH5700. 24And it came to pass when they had broughtH3318 forthH3318 those kingsH4428 to JoshuaH3091, that JoshuaH3091 calledH7121 to all the menH376 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559 to the captains of the menH376 of warH4421 who wentH1980 with him, ComeH1980 forward, putH7760 your feetH7272 on the necksH6677 of these kingsH4428. And they came forward and putH7760 their feetH7272 on their necksH6677. 25And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to them, FearH3372 not, neither be dismayedH2865; be strongH2388 and courageousH553, for thusH3602 will Jehovah do to all your enemiesH341 against whom ye fightH3898. 26And afterwards JoshuaH3091 smote them, and putH4191 them to deathH4191, and hangedH8518 them on fiveH2568 treesH6086; and they wereH1961 hangingH8518 upon the treesH6086 until the eveningH6153. 27And it cameH935 to pass at the timeH6256 of the goingH935 downH3381 of the sunH8121, that JoshuaH3091 commandedH6680, and they took them downH3381 off the treesH6086, and castH7993 them into the caveH4631 whereH834 they had beenH1961 hidH2244, and laid greatH1419 stonesH68 before the cave's mouthH6310, [which remain] to this very dayH3117. 28And JoshuaH3091 tookH3920 MakkedahH4719 on that dayH3117, and smote it with the edge of the swordH2719, and the kingH4428 thereof, him and all the soulsH5315 that were therein he utterly destroyed; he let none remainH7604; and he did to the kingH4428 of MakkedahH4719 as he had done to the kingH4428 of JerichoH3405. 29And JoshuaH3091 passedH5674, and all IsraelH3478 with him, from MakkedahH4719 to LibnahH3841, and foughtH3898 against LibnahH3841. 30And Jehovah gaveH5414 it alsoH1571 and the kingH4428 thereof into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478; and he smote it with the edge of the swordH2719, and all the soulsH5315 that were therein; he let none remainH7604 in it: and he did to the kingH4428 thereof as he had done to the kingH4428 of JerichoH3405. 31And JoshuaH3091 passedH5674, and all IsraelH3478 with him, from LibnahH3841 to LachishH3923, and encampedH2583 against it, and foughtH3898 against it. 32And Jehovah gaveH5414 LachishH3923 into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478; and they tookH3920 it on the secondH8145 dayH3117, and smote it with the edge of the swordH2719, and all the soulsH5315 that were therein, according to all that he had done to LibnahH3841. 33ThenH227 Horam kingH4428 of GezerH1507 cameH5927 up to helpH5826 LachishH3923; and JoshuaH3091 smote him and his peopleH5971, until he had leftH7604 him none remainingH7604. 34And JoshuaH3091, and all IsraelH3478 with him, passedH5674 from LachishH3923 to EglonH5700; and they encampedH2583 against it, and foughtH3898 against it. 35And they tookH3920 it on that dayH3117, and smote it with the edge of the swordH2719; and all the soulsH5315 that were therein he utterly destroyed on that dayH3117, according to all that he had done to LachishH3923. 36And JoshuaH3091 wentH5927 up, and all IsraelH3478 with him, from EglonH5700 to HebronH2275; and they foughtH3898 against it. 37And they tookH3920 it, and smote it with the edge of the swordH2719, and the kingH4428 thereof, and all the citiesH5892 thereof, and all the soulsH5315 that were therein: he let none remainH7604, according to all that he had done to EglonH5700; and he utterly destroyed it, and all the soulsH5315 that were therein. 38And JoshuaH3091 returnedH7725, and all IsraelH3478 with him, to DebirH1688; and foughtH3898 against it. 39And he tookH3920 it, and the kingH4428 thereof, and all the citiesH5892 thereof, and they smote them with the edge of the swordH2719, and utterly destroyed all the soulsH5315 that were therein; he let none remainH7604: as he had done to HebronH2275, and as he had done to LibnahH3841, and to the kingH4428 thereof, so he did to DebirH1688 and to the kingH4428 thereof. 40And JoshuaH3091 smote the whole countryH2022, the mountainH2022, and the southH5045, and the lowland, and the hill-slopes, and all their kingsH4428: he let none remainH7604, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Jehovah the 2GodH430 of IsraelH3478 had commandedH6680. 41And JoshuaH3091 smote them from Kadesh-barneaH6947 even to Gazah, and all the country of GoshenH1657, even to GibeonH1391; 42and all these kingsH4428 and their landH776 did JoshuaH3091 takeH3920 at oneH259 timeH6471; for Jehovah the 3GodH430 of IsraelH3478 foughtH3898 for IsraelH3478. 43And JoshuaH3091 returnedH7725, and all IsraelH3478 with him, to the campH4264, to GilgalH1537.
