¹ After the death of Moses, the Lord spoke to Joshua, son of Nave, the lieutenant of Moses, saying, ² My servant Moses is dead, now therefore arise, and cross the Jordan, thou and all the people, into the land which I give them. ³ Every place, on which you tread with the sole of your feet, I will give you, as I said to Moses. ⁴ The wilderness, and yonder Antilibanus, to the river, the great river Euphrates, and to the farthest sea, at the setting of the sun, shall be your boundaries. ⁵ Not a man shall withstand you all the clays of thy life. As I was with Moses, so will I be with thee. I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. ⁶ Be strong and of good courage; for thou shalt parcel out to this people the land, which I solemnly promised their fathers to give to them. ⁷ Therefore be strong, and courageous, to watch, and to do as my servant Moses commanded. Thou must not deviate from them, to the right or to the left. That thou mayst clearly understand all that thou art to do: ⁸ the book of the Law must never be out of thy mouth. Thou must study it day and night, that thou mayst know how to do all that are written. Then shalt thou be prospered; and thou wilt make thy ways prosperous; and then thou shalt have a good understanding. ⁹ Behold I have commanded thee; be strong and courageous: fear not, nor be dismayed; for the Lord thy God is with thee withersoever thou goest. ¹⁰ Upon this Joshua gave orders to the officers of the people, saying;

¹ After this David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took the country, appurtenant to the cities, out of the hand of the Philistines. ² David also smote Moab, and measured them with lines, having caused them to dwell in the country, and there were two lines to be put to death, and two lines to be saved alive. So Moab became servants to David, and brought him gifts. ³ David also smote Adraazar, son of Raab king of Suba. As he was going to establish his authority over the river Euphrates, ⁴ David intercepted a thousand of his chariots, and seven thousand cavalry, and twenty thousand infantry; and David destroyed all the chariots, except one hundred which he reserved for himself. ⁵ And when Syria of Damascus came to assist Adraazar king of Suba, David smote of the Syrians twenty two thousand men, ⁶ and David placed a garrison in Syria at Damascus, and the Syrians became servants to David and brought him gifts. So the Lord preserved David withersoever he went. ⁷ And David took the breastplates of gold, which were on the servants of Adraazar, king of Suba and brought them to Jerusalem. Now these were they which Susakim king of Egypt took when he came up against Jerusalem, in the days of Roboam son of Solomon. ⁸ And from Metebak, and from the principal cities of Adraazar, king David took brass in great abundance, of which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the lavers, and all the vessels of brass. ⁹ And when Thoou, the king of Emath, heard that David had smitten all the army of Adraazar, ¹⁰ Thoou sent his son Jedduram to king David to salute him courteously, and congratulate him for having fought Adraazar, and smitten him; for he was at enmity with Adraazar. And Jedduram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass. ¹¹ And king David dedicated these to the Lord, with the silver and the gold which he had dedicated out of all the cities which he had subdued; ¹² Out of Idumea and Moab, and the children of Ammon, and the Philistines, and Amelek, and the spoils of Adraazar, son of Raab king of Suba. ¹³ Thus David made himself renowned. And when he returned, he smote of the Idumeans at Gebelim, to the number of eighteen thousand, ¹⁴ and placed garrisons in Idumea, throughout the whole extent of it. So all the Idumeans became servants to the king. And the Lord preserved David whithersoever he went. ¹⁵ And David reigned over all Israel. And David executed judgment and justice over all his people. ¹⁶ And Joab son of Saruia was at the head of the army, and Josaphat son of, Achilud was recorder, ¹⁷ and Sadok, son of Achitob, and Achimelech son of Abiathar, were priests; and Sasa was the scribe; ¹⁸ and Banaias son of Jodae was counsellor; and the Chelethites, and the Phelethites, and David's sons, were the palace guards.

¹ Now after this the king of the Ammonites died, and Annon his son reigned in his stead. ² Whereupon David said, I will shew kindness to Annon, son of Naas, as his father shewed kindness to me. So David sent his servants to comfort him for the death of his father. But when David's servants came to the land of the Ammonites, ³ the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Annon their lord, Is it to honour thy father in thy presence, that David hath sent thee comforters? Is it not rather that they may examine the city and view it? It is indeed for the purpose of spying it, that David hath sent these servants of his to thee. ⁴ Upon this Annon took David's servants, and shaved their beards, and cut off one half of their upper garments, even up to the loins, and sent them away. ⁵ And when David was informed touching his men, he sent to meet them, for the men had been greatly dishonoured, and the king said, Tarry at Jericho till your beards grow, and then return. ⁶ Now when the children of Ammon saw that David's people were dishonoured, they sent, and hired the Syrians of Baithraam, and the Syrians of Suba and Roob, twenty thousand infantry, and of the king of Amelek, a thousand men, and of Istob twelve thousand men. ⁷ And when David heard it, he sent out Joab, and all the army, even all the mighty men. ⁸ And the children of Ammon came out and drew up for battle before the gate of the city; and the Syrians of Suba, and Roob, with Istob, and Amelek, were by themselves in the fields. ⁹ When Joab saw that there was a front of battle against him both before and behind, he made a draught from among all the youth of Israel, and set them in array against the Syrians, ¹⁰ and he committed the residue of the people to his brother Abessa; and they drew up in array against the children of Ammon. ¹¹ And Joab said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, you must come to my assistance; and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, we will come to save thee. ¹² Act manfully, and let us shew our courage for our people and for the cities of our God. And the Lord will do what is good in his sight. ¹³ Then Joab, and all his people with him, advanced to battle against the Syrians, and they fled before him. ¹⁴ And when the Ammonites saw that the Syrians fled, they also fled before Abessa, and entered the city. Whereupon Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem. ¹⁵ Now when the Syrians saw that they had given way before Israel, they assembled together, ¹⁶ and Adraazar sent and collected the Syrians from the banks of the river Chalamak, and they came to Ailam, with Sobak, the commander in chief of Adraazar's army, at their head. ¹⁷ When this was told David, he assembled all Israel, and crossed the Jordan, and came to Ailam; and the Syrians drew up in array against David, and fought him. ¹⁸ But the Syrians fled before Israel, and David destroyed of Syria seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen. He smote also Sobak the commander in chief of the army, so that he died there. ¹⁹ And when all the kings who were vassals of Adraazar saw that they were smitten before Israel, they revolted, and joined Israel and served them. So Syria was intimidated from aiding the Ammonites any more.
