Joshua 9:3 Cross References - Brenton

³ And the inhabitants of Gabaon heard of all that the Lord did to Jericho and Gai.

¹ Now Jericho was closely shut up and besieged, and none went out of it, and none came in. ² And the Lord said to Joshua, Behold, I deliver Jericho into thy power, and its king in it, and its mighty men. ³ And do thou set the men of war round about it. ⁴ (OMITTED TEXT) ^{5 (6:4)} And it shall be that when ye shall sound with the trumpet, all the people shall shout together. ^(6:5) And when they have shouted, the walls of the city shall fall of themselves; and all the people shall enter, each one rushing direct into the city. ⁶ And Joshua the son of Naue went in to the priests, and spoke to them, saying, ^(6:7) And let seven priests having seven sacred trumpets proceed thus before the Lord, and let them sound loudly; and let the ark of the covenant of the Lord follow. ^{7 (6:6A)} Charge the people to go round, and encompass the city; and let your men of war pass on armed before the Lord. ⁸ (OMITTED TEXT) ⁹ And let the men of war proceed before, and the priests bringing up the rear behind the ark of the covenant of the Lord proceed sounding the trumpets. ¹⁰ And Joshua commanded the people, saying, Cry not out, nor let any one hear your voice, until he himself declare to you the time to cry out, and then ye shall cry out. ¹¹ And the ark of the covenant of God having gone round immediately returned into the camp, and lodged there. ¹² And on the second day Joshua rose up in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the covenant of the Lord. ¹³ And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets went on before the Lord; and afterwards the men of war went on, and the remainder of the multitude went after the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the priests sounded with the trumpets. ¹⁴ And all the rest of the multitude compassed the city six times from within a short distance, and went back again into the camp; this they did six days. ¹⁵ And on the seventh day they rose up early, and compassed the city on that day seven times. ¹⁶ And it came to pass at the seventh circuit the priests blew the trumpets; and Joshua said to the children of Israel, Shout, for the Lord has given you the city. ¹⁷ And the city shall be devoted, it and all things that are in it, to the Lord of Hosts: only do ye save Raab the harlot, and all things in her house. ¹⁸ But keep yourselves strictly from the accursed thing, lest ye set your mind upon and take of the accursed thing, and ye make the camp of the children of Israel and accursed thing, and destroy us. ¹⁹ And all the silver, or gold, or brass, or iron, shall be holy to the Lord; it shall be carried into the treasury of the Lord. ²⁰ And the priests sounded with the trumpets: and when the people heard the trumpets, all the people shouted at once with a loud and strong shout; and all the wall fell round about, and all the people went up into the city: ²¹ and Joshua devoted it to destruction, and all things that were in the city, man and woman, young man and old, and calf and ass, with the edge of the sword. ²² And Joshua said to the two young men who had acted a spies, Go into the house of the woman, and bring her out thence, and all that she has. ²³ And the two young men who had spied out the city entered into the house of the woman, and brought out Raab the harlot, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and her kindred, and all that she had; and they set her without the camp of Israel. ²⁴ And the city was burnt with fire with all things that were in it; only of the silver, and gold, and brass, and iron, they gave to be brought into the treasury of the Lord. ²⁵ And Joshua saved alive Raab the harlot, and all the house of her father, and caused her to dwell in Israel until this day, because she hid the spies which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho. ²⁶ And Joshua adjured them on that day before the Lord, saying, Cursed be the man who shall build that city: he shall lay the foundation of it in his first-born, and he shall set up the gates of it in his youngest son. And so did Hozan of Baethel; he laid the foundation in Abiron his first-born, and set up the gates of it in his youngest surviving son. ²⁷ And the Lord was with Joshua, and his name was in all the land.

¹ And the Lord said to Joshua, Fear not, nor be timorous: take with thee all the men of war, and arise, go up to Gai; behold, I have given into thy hands the king of Gai, and his land. ² And thou shalt do to Gai, as thou didst to Jericho and its king; and thou shalt take to thyself the spoil of its cattle; set now for thyself an ambush for the city behind. ³ And Joshua and all the men of war rose to go up to Gai; and Joshua chose out thirty thousand mighty men, and he sent them away by night. ⁴ And he charged them, saying, Do ye lie in ambush behind the city: do not go far from the city, and ye shall all be ready. ⁵ Land I and all with me will draw near to the city: and it shall come to pass when the inhabitants of Gai shall come forth to meet us, as before, that we will flee from before them. ⁶ And when they shall come out after us, we will draw them away from the city; and they will say, These men flee from before us, as also before. ⁷ And ye shall rise up out of the ambuscade, and go into the city. ⁸ Ye shall do according to this word, lo! I have commanded you. ⁹ And Joshua sent them, and they went to lie in ambush; and they lay between Baethel and Gai, westward of Gai. ¹⁰ And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and numbered the people; and he went up, he and the elders before the people to Gai. ¹¹ And all the men of war went up with him, and they went forward and came over against the city eastward. ¹² And the ambuscade was on the west side of the city. ¹³ (OMITTED TEXT) ¹⁴ And it came to pass when the king of Gai saw it, he hasted and went out to meet them direct to the battle, he and all the people that were with him: and he knew not that there was an ambuscade formed against him behind the city. ¹⁵ And Joshua and Israel saw, and retreated from before them. ¹⁶ And they pursued after the children of Israel, and they themselves went to a distance from the city. ¹⁷ There was no one left in Gai who did not pursue after Israel; and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel. ¹⁸ And the Lord said to Joshua, Stretch forth thy hand with the spear that is in thy hand toward the city, for I have delivered it into thy hands; and the liers in wait shall rise up quickly out of their place. ¹⁹ And Joshua stretched out his hand and his spear toward the city, and the ambuscade rose up quickly out of their place; and they came forth when he stretched out his hand; and they entered into the city, and took it; and they hasted and burnt the city with fire. ²⁰ And when the inhabitants of Gai looked round behind them, then they saw the smoke going up out of the city to heaven, and they were no longer able to flee this way or that way. ²¹ And Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambuscade had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city went up to heaven; and they turned and smote the men of Gai. ²² And these came forth out of the city to meet them; and they were in the midst of the army, some being on this side, and some on that; and they smote them until there was not left of them one who survived and escaped. ²³ And they took the king of Gai alive, and brought him to Joshua. ²⁴ And when the children of Israel had ceased slaying all that were in Gai, and in the fields, and in the mountain on the descent, from whence they pursued them even to the end, then Joshua returned to Gai, and smote it with the edge of the sword. ²⁵ And they that fell in that day, men and women, were twelve thousand: they slew all the inhabitants of Gai. ²⁶ (OMITTED TEXT) ²⁷ Beside the spoils that were in the city, all things which the children of Israel took as spoil for themselves according to the command of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Joshua. ²⁸ And Joshua burnt the city with fire: he made it an uninhabited heap for ever, even to this day. ²⁹ And he hanged the king of Gai on a gallows; and he remained on the tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave charge, and they took down his body from the tree, and cast it into a pit, and they set over him a heap of stones until this day. ³⁰ Then Joshua built an altar to the Lord God of Israel in mount Gaebal, ³¹ as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the law of Moses, an altar of unhewn stones, on which iron had not been lifted up; and he offered there whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord, and a peace-offering. ³² And Joshua wrote upon the stones a copy of the law, even the law of Moses, before the children of Israel. ³³ And all Israel, and their elders, and their judges, and their scribes, passed on one side and on the other before the ark; and the priests and the Levites took up the ark of the covenant of the Lord; and the stranger and the native were there, who were half of them near mount Garizin, and half near mount Gaebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded at first, to bless the people. ³⁴ And afterwards Joshua read accordingly all the words of this law, the blessings and the curses, according to all things written in the law of Moses. ³⁵ There was not a word of all that Moses charged Joshua, which Joshua read not in the ears of all the assembly of the children of Israel, the men, and the women, and the children, and the strangers that joined themselves to Israel.

¹⁷ And the children of Israel departed and came to their cities; and their cities were Gabaon, and Kephira, and Berot, and the cities of Jarin.

² then they were greatly terrified by them, for the king knew that Gabaon was a great city, as one of the chief cities, and all its men were mighty.

¹ And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the Lord. And the Lord said, There is guilt upon Saul and his house because of his bloody murder, whereby he slew the Gabaonites. ² And King David called the Gabaonites, and said to them; — (now the Gabaonites are not the children of Israel, but are of the remnant of the Amorite, and the children of Israel had sworn to them: but Saul sought to smite them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Juda.)
