H2985
And it came to pass, when Jabin
H4428
king
H2674
of Hazor
H8085 [H8800]
had heard
H7971 [H8799]
those things, that he sent
H3103
to Jobab
H4428
king
H4068
of Madon,
H4428
and to the king
H8110
of Shimron,
H4428
and to the king
H407
Achshaph,
2
H4428
And to the kings
H6828
that were on the north
H2022
of the mountains,
H6160
and of the plains
H5045
south
H3672
of Chinneroth,
H8219
and in the valley,
H5299
and in the borders
H1756
of Dor
H3220
on the west,
3
H3669
And to the Canaanite
H4217
on the east
H3220
and on the west,
H567
and to the Amorite,
H2850
and the Hittite,
H6522
and the Perizzite,
H2983
and the Jebusite
H2022
in the mountains,
H2340
and to the Hivite
H2768
under Hermon
H776
in the land
H4709
of Mizpeh.
4
H3318 [H8799]
And they went out,
H4264
they and all their hosts
H7227
with them, many
H5971
people,
H2344
even as the sand
H3220
that is upon the sea
H8193
shore
H7230
in abundance,
H3966
with very
H7227
many
H5483
horses
H7393
and chariots.
5
H4428
And when all these kings
H3259 [H8735]
were met together,
H935 [H8799]
they came
H2583 [H8799]
and encamped
H3162
together
H4325
at the waters
H4792
of Merom,
H3898 [H8736]
to fight
H3478
against Israel.
6
H3068
And the LORD
H559 [H8799]
said
H3091
to Joshua,
H3372 [H8799]
Be not afraid
H6440
because
H4279
of them: for to morrow
H6256
about this time
H5414 [H8802]
will I give them up
H2491
all slain
H6440
at the face of
H3478
Israel:
H6131 [H8762]
thou shalt hamstring
H5483
their horses,
H8313 [H8799]
and burn
H4818
their chariots
H784
with fire.
7
H3091
So Joshua
H935 [H8799]
came,
H5971
and all the people
H4421
of war
H4325
with him, against them by the waters
H4792
of Merom
H6597
suddenly;
H5307 [H8799]
and they fell upon them.
8
H3068
And the LORD
H5414 [H8799]
gave
H3027
them into the hand
H3478
of Israel,
H5221 [H8686]
who smote
H7291 [H8799]
them, and chased
H7227
them to great
H6721
Zidon,
H4956
and to Misrephothmaim,
H1237
and to the valley
H4708
of Mizpeh
H4217
eastward;
H5221 [H8686]
and they smote
H7604 [H8689]
them, until they left
H8300
to them none remaining.
9
H3091
And Joshua
H6213 [H8799]
did
H3068
to them as the LORD
H559 [H8804]
bade
H6131 [H8765]
him: he hamstrung
H5483
their horses,
H8313 [H8804]
and burnt
H4818
their chariots
H784
with fire.
10
H3091
And Joshua
H6256
at that time
H7725 [H8799]
turned back,
H3920 [H8799]
and took
H2674
Hazor,
H5221 [H8689]
and smote
H4428
its king
H2719
with the sword:
H2674
for Hazor
H6440
in times past
H7218
was the head
H4467
of all those kingdoms.
11
H5221 [H8686]
And they smote
H5315
all the breaths
H6310
that were in it with the edge
H2719
of the sword,
H2763 [H8687]
utterly secluding
H3498 [H8738]
them: there was not any left
H5397
to breathe:
H8313 [H8804]
and he burnt
H2674
Hazor
H784
with fire.
12
H5892
And all the cities
H4428
of those kings,
H4428
and all the kings
H3091
of them, Joshua
H3920 [H8804]
took,
H5221 [H8686]
and smote
H6310
them with the edge
H2719
of the sword,
H2763 [H8689]
and he utterly secluded
H4872
them, as Moses
H5650
the servant
H3068
of the LORD
H6680 [H8765]
commanded.
13
H5892
But as for the cities
H5975 [H8802]
that stood
H8510
still in their strength,
H3478
Israel
H8313 [H8804]
burned
H2108
none of them, except
H2674
Hazor
H3091
only; that did Joshua
H8313 [H8804]
burn.
14
H7998
And all the spoil
H5892
of these cities,
H929
and the cattle,
H1121
the sons
H3478
of Israel
H962 [H8804]
took for a prey
H120
to themselves; but every man
H5221 [H8689]
they smote
H6310
with the edge
H2719
of the sword,
H8045 [H8687]
until they had desolated
H7604 [H8689]
them, neither left
H5397
they any to breathe.
15
H3068
As the LORD
H6680 [H8765]
commanded
H4872
Moses
H5650
his servant,
H4872
so did Moses
H6680 [H8765]
command
H3091
Joshua,
H6213 [H8804]
and so did
H3091
Joshua;
H5493 0
he left
H1697
nothing
H5493 [H8689]
undone
H3068
of all that the LORD
H6680 [H8765]
commanded
H4872
Moses.
16
H3091
So Joshua
H3947 [H8799]
took
H776
all that land,
H2022
the mountains,
H5045
and all the south country,
H776
and all the land
H1657
of Goshen,
H8219
and the valley,
H6160
and the plain,
H2022
and the mountain
H3478
of Israel,
H8219
and the valley of the same;
17
H2022
Even from the mount
H2510
Halak,
H5927 [H8802]
that goeth up
H8165
to Seir,
H1171
even to Baalgad
H1237
in the valley
H3844
of Lebanon
H2022
under mount
H2768
Hermon:
H4428
and all their kings
H3920 [H8804]
he took,
H5221 [H8686]
and smote
H4191 [H8686]
them, and slew them.
19
H5892
There was not a city
H7999 [H8689]
that made peace
H1121
with the sons
H3478
of Israel,
H2340
except the Hivites
H3427 [H8802]
the inhabitants
H1391
of Gibeon:
H3947 [H8804]
all other they took
H4421
in battle.
20
H3068
For it was of the LORD
H2388 [H8763]
to harden
H3820
their hearts,
H7125 [H8800]
that they should come against
H3478
Israel
H4421
in battle,
H2763 [H8687]
that he might seclude them utterly,
H8467
and that they might have no favour,
H8045 [H8687]
but that he might desolate
H3068
them, as the LORD
H6680 [H8765]
commanded
H4872
Moses.
21
H6256
And at that time
H935 [H8799]
came
H3091
Joshua,
H3772 [H8686]
and cut off
H6062
the Anakims
H2022
from the mountains,
H2275
from Hebron,
H1688
from Debir,
H6024
from Anab,
H2022
and from all the mountains
H3063
of Judah,
H2022
and from all the mountains
H3478
of Israel:
H3091
Joshua
H2763 [H8689]
secluded them utterly
H5892
with their cities.
22
H6062
There was none of the Anakims
H3498 [H8738]
left
H776
in the land
H1121
of the sons
H3478
of Israel:
H5804
only in Gaza,
H1661
in Gath,
H795
and in Ashdod,
H7604 [H8738]
there remained.
23
H3091
So Joshua
H3947 [H8799]
took
H776
the whole land,
H3068
according to all that the LORD
H1696 [H8765]
said
H4872
to Moses;
H3091
and Joshua
H5414 [H8799]
gave
H5159
it for an inheritance
H3478
to Israel
H4256
according to their divisions
H7626
by their tribes.
H776
And the land
H8252 [H8804]
rested
H4421
from war.
