Joshua 6:1--11:23

6:1
Now Jericho
<03405>
was straitly
<05462> (8802)
shut up
<05462> (8794)
because
<06440>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
none went out
<03318> (8802)_,
and none came in
<0935> (8802)_.
{was...: Heb. did shut up, and was shut up}
6:2
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
See
<07200> (8798)_,
I have given
<05414> (8804)
into thine hand
<03027>
Jericho
<03405>_,
and the king
<04428>
thereof, [and] the mighty men
<01368>
of valour
<02428>_.
6:3
And ye shall compass
<05437> (8804)
the city
<05892>_,
all [ye] men
<0582>
of war
<04421>_,
[and] go round about
<05362> (8687)
the city
<05892>
once
<06471> <0259>_.
Thus shalt thou do
<06213> (8799)
six
<08337>
days
<03117>_.
6:4
And seven
<07651>
priests
<03548>
shall bear
<05375> (8799)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
seven
<07651>
trumpets
<07782>
of rams' horns
<03104>_:
and the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>
ye shall compass
<05437> (8799)
the city
<05892>
seven
<07651>
times
<06471>_,
and the priests
<03548>
shall blow
<08628> (8799)
with the trumpets
<07782>_.
6:5
And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long
<04900> (8800)
[blast] with the ram's
<03104>
horn
<07161>_,
[and] when ye hear
<08085> (8800)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
all the people
<05971>
shall shout
<07321> (8686)
with a great
<01419>
shout
<08643>_;
and the wall
<02346>
of the city
<05892>
shall fall down
<05307> (8804)
flat
<08478>_,
and the people
<05971>
shall ascend up
<05927> (8804)
every man
<0376>
straight before him. {flat: Heb. under it}
6:6
And Joshua
<03091>
the son
<01121>
of Nun
<05126>
called
<07121> (8799)
the priests
<03548>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Take up
<05375> (8798)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>_,
and let seven
<07651>
priests
<03548>
bear
<05375> (8799)
seven
<07651>
trumpets
<07782>
of rams' horns
<03104>
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
6:7
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto the people
<05971>_,
Pass on
<05674> (8798)_,
and compass
<05437> (8798)
the city
<05892>_,
and let him that is armed
<02502> (8803)
pass on
<05674> (8799)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
6:8
And it came to pass, when Joshua
<03091>
had spoken
<0559> (8800)
unto the people
<05971>_,
that the seven
<07651>
priests
<03548>
bearing
<05375> (8802)
the seven
<07651>
trumpets
<07782>
of rams' horns
<03104>
passed on
<05674> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and blew
<08628> (8804)
with the trumpets
<07782>_:
and the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
followed
<01980> (8802)
them
<0310>_.
6:9
And the armed
<02502> (8803)
men went
<01980> (8802)
before
<06440>
the priests
<03548>
that blew
<08628> (8802) (8675) <08628> (8804)
with the trumpets
<07782>_,
and the rereward
<0622> (8764)
came
<01980> (8802)
after
<0310>
the ark
<0727>_,
[the priests] going on
<01980> (8800)_,
and blowing
<08628> (8800)
with the trumpets
<07782>_.
{rereward: Heb. gathering host}
6:10
And Joshua
<03091>
had commanded
<06680> (8765)
the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not shout
<07321> (8686)_,
nor make any noise
<08085> (8686)
with your voice
<06963>_,
neither shall [any] word
<01697>
proceed
<03318> (8799)
out of your mouth
<06310>_,
until the day
<03117>
I bid
<0559> (8800)
you shout
<07321> (8685)_;
then shall ye shout
<07321> (8689)_.
{any noise...: Heb. your voice to be heard}
6:11
So the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
compassed
<05437> (8686)
the city
<05892>_,
going about
<05362> (8687)
[it] once
<06471> <0259>_:
and they came
<0935> (8799)
into the camp
<04264>_,
and lodged
<03885> (8799)
in the camp
<04264>_.
6:12
And Joshua
<03091>
rose early
<07925> (8686)
in the morning
<01242>_,
and the priests
<03548>
took up
<05375> (8799)
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
6:13
And seven
<07651>
priests
<03548>
bearing
<05375> (8802)
seven
<07651>
trumpets
<07782>
of rams' horns
<03104>
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
went on
<01980> (8802)
continually
<01980> (8800)_,
and blew
<08628> (8804)
with the trumpets
<07782>_:
and the armed men
<02502> (8803)
went
<01980> (8802)
before
<06440>
them; but the rereward
<0622> (8764)
came
<01980> (8802)
after
<0310>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[the priests] going on
<01980> (8800)_,
and blowing
<08628> (8800)
with the trumpets
<07782>_.
6:14
And the second
<08145>
day
<03117>
they compassed
<05437> (8799)
the city
<05892>
once
<06471> <0259>_,
and returned
<07725> (8799)
into the camp
<04264>_:
so they did
<06213> (8804)
six
<08337>
days
<03117>_.
6:15
And it came to pass on the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>_,
that they rose early
<07925> (8686)
about the dawning
<05927> (8800)
of the day
<07837>_,
and compassed
<05437> (8799)
the city
<05892>
after the same manner
<04941>
seven
<07651>
times
<06471>_:
only on that day
<03117>
they compassed
<05437> (8804)
the city
<05892>
seven
<07651>
times
<06471>_.
6:16
And it came to pass at the seventh
<07637>
time
<06471>_,
when the priests
<03548>
blew
<08628> (8804)
with the trumpets
<07782>_,
Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the people
<05971>_,
Shout
<07321> (8685)_;
for the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
you the city
<05892>_.
6:17
And the city
<05892>
shall be accursed
<02764>_,
[even] it, and all that [are] therein, to the LORD
<03068>_:
only Rahab
<07343>
the harlot
<02181> (8802)
shall live
<02421> (8799)_,
she and all that [are] with her in the house
<01004>_,
because she hid
<02244> (8689)
the messengers
<04397>
that we sent
<07971> (8804)_.
{accursed: or, devoted}
6:18
And ye, in any wise
<07535>
keep
<08104> (8798)
[yourselves] from the accursed thing
<02764>_,
lest ye make [yourselves] accursed
<02763> (8686)_,
when ye take
<03947> (8804)
of the accursed thing
<02764>_,
and make
<07760> (8804)
the camp
<04264>
of Israel
<03478>
a curse
<02764>_,
and trouble
<05916> (8804)
it. {accursed: or, devoted} {a curse: or, devoted}
6:19
But all the silver
<03701>_,
and gold
<02091>_,
and vessels
<03627>
of brass
<05178>
and iron
<01270>_,
[are] consecrated
<06944>
unto the LORD
<03068>_:
they shall come
<0935> (8799)
into the treasury
<0214>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{consecrated: Heb. holiness}
6:20
So the people
<05971>
shouted
<07321> (8686)
when [the priests] blew
<08628> (8799)
with the trumpets
<07782>_:
and it came to pass, when the people
<05971>
heard
<08085> (8800)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
and the people
<05971>
shouted
<07321> (8686)
with a great
<01419>
shout
<08643>_,
that the wall
<02346>
fell down flat
<05307> (8799)_,
so that the people
<05971>
went up
<05927> (8799)
into the city
<05892>_,
every man
<0376>
straight before him, and they took
<03920> (8799)
the city
<05892>_.
{flat: Heb. under it}
6:21
And they utterly destroyed
<02763> (8686)
all that [was] in the city
<05892>_,
both man
<0376>
and woman
<0802>_,
young
<05288>
and old
<02205>_,
and ox
<07794>_,
and sheep
<07716>_,
and ass
<02543>_,
with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_.
6:22
But Joshua
<03091>
had said
<0559> (8804)
unto the two
<08147>
men
<0582>
that had spied out
<07270> (8764)
the country
<0776>_,
Go
<0935> (8798)
into the harlot's
<02181> (8802)
house
<01004>_,
and bring out
<03318> (8685)
thence the woman
<0802>_,
and all that she hath, as ye sware
<07650> (8738)
unto her.
6:23
And the young men
<05288>
that were spies
<07270> (8764)
went in
<0935> (8799)_,
and brought out
<03318> (8686)
Rahab
<07343>_,
and her father
<01>_,
and her mother
<0517>_,
and her brethren
<0251>_,
and all that she had; and they brought out
<03318> (8689)
all her kindred
<04940>_,
and left
<03240> (8686)
them without
<02351>
the camp
<04264>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{kindred: Heb. families}
6:24
And they burnt
<08313> (8804)
the city
<05892>
with fire
<0784>_,
and all that [was] therein: only the silver
<03701>_,
and the gold
<02091>_,
and the vessels
<03627>
of brass
<05178>
and of iron
<01270>_,
they put
<05414> (8804)
into the treasury
<0214>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
6:25
And Joshua
<03091>
saved
<02421> (0)
Rahab
<07343>
the harlot
<02181> (8802)
alive
<02421> (8689)_,
and her father's
<01>
household
<01004>_,
and all that she had; and she dwelleth
<03427> (8799)
in
<07130>
Israel
<03478>
[even] unto this day
<03117>_;
because she hid
<02244> (8689)
the messengers
<04397>_,
which Joshua
<03091>
sent
<07971> (8804)
to spy out
<07270> (8763)
Jericho
<03405>_.
6:26
And Joshua
<03091>
adjured
<07650> (8686)
[them] at that time
<06256>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] the man
<0376>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
that riseth up
<06965> (8799)
and buildeth
<01129> (8804)
this city
<05892>
Jericho
<03405>_:
he shall lay the foundation
<03245> (8762)
thereof in his firstborn
<01060>_,
and in his youngest
<06810>
[son] shall he set up
<05324> (8686)
the gates
<01817>
of it.
6:27
So the LORD
<03068>
was with Joshua
<03091>_;
and his fame
<08089>
was [noised] throughout all the country
<0776>_.
7:1
But the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
committed
<04603> (8799)
a trespass
<04604>
in the accursed thing
<02764>_:
for Achan
<05912>_,
the son
<01121>
of Carmi
<03756>_,
the son
<01121>
of Zabdi
<02067>_,
the son
<01121>
of Zerah
<02226>_,
of the tribe
<04294>
of Judah
<03063>_,
took
<03947> (8799)
of the accursed thing
<02764>_:
and the anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
was kindled
<02734> (8799)
against the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{Achan: also called, Achar} {Zabdi: also called, Zimri}
7:2
And Joshua
<03091>
sent
<07971> (8799)
men
<0582>
from Jericho
<03405>
to Ai
<05857>_,
which [is] beside
<05973>
Bethaven
<01007>_,
on the east side
<06924>
of Bethel
<01008>_,
and spake
<0559> (8799)
unto them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go up
<05927> (8798)
and view
<07270> (8761)
the country
<0776>_.
And the men
<0582>
went up
<05927> (8799)
and viewed
<07270> (8762)
Ai
<05857>_.
7:3
And they returned
<07725> (8799)
to Joshua
<03091>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Let not all the people
<05971>
go up
<05927> (8799)_;
but let about two or three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
go up
<05927> (8799)
and smite
<05221> (8686)
Ai
<05857>_;
[and] make not all the people
<05971>
to labour
<03021> (8762)
thither; for they [are but] few
<04592>_.
{about...: Heb. about two thousand men, or, about three thousand men}
7:4
So there went up
<05927> (8799)
thither of the people
<05971>
about three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_:
and they fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>_.
7:5
And the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>
smote
<05221> (8686)
of them about thirty
<07970>
and six
<08337>
men
<0376>_:
for they chased
<07291> (8799)
them [from] before
<06440>
the gate
<08179>
[even] unto Shebarim
<07671>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
them in the going down
<04174>_:
wherefore the hearts
<03824>
of the people
<05971>
melted
<04549> (8735)_,
and became as water
<04325>_.
{in...: or, in Morad}
7:6
And Joshua
<03091>
rent
<07167> (8799)
his clothes
<08071>_,
and fell
<05307> (8799)
to the earth
<0776>
upon his face
<06440>
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
until the eventide
<06153>_,
he and the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and put
<05927> (8686)
dust
<06083>
upon their heads
<07218>_.
7:7
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Alas, O
<0162>
Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
wherefore hast thou at all
<05674> (8687)
brought
<05674> (0)
this people
<05971>
over
<05674> (8689)
Jordan
<03383>_,
to deliver
<05414> (8800)
us into the hand
<03027>
of the Amorites
<0567>_,
to destroy
<06> (8687)
us? would to God
<03863>
we had been content
<02974> (8689)_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
on the other side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_!
7:8
O
<0994>
Lord
<0136>_,
what shall I say
<0559> (8799)_,
when
<0310>
Israel
<03478>
turneth
<02015> (8804)
their backs
<06203>
before
<06440>
their enemies
<0341> (8802)_!
{backs: Heb. necks}
7:9
For the Canaanites
<03669>
and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>
shall hear
<08085> (8799)
[of it], and shall environ us round
<05437> (8738)_,
and cut off
<03772> (8689)
our name
<08034>
from the earth
<0776>_:
and what wilt thou do
<06213> (8799)
unto thy great
<01419>
name
<08034>_?
7:10
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Get thee up
<06965> (8798)_;
wherefore liest
<05307> (8802)
thou thus upon thy face
<06440>_?
{liest: Heb. fallest}
7:11
Israel
<03478>
hath sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
and they have also transgressed
<05674> (8804)
my covenant
<01285>
which I commanded
<06680> (8765)
them: for they have even taken
<03947> (8804)
of the accursed thing
<02764>_,
and have also stolen
<01589> (8804)_,
and dissembled
<03584> (8765)
also, and they have put
<07760> (8804)
[it] even among their own stuff
<03627>_.
7:12
Therefore the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
could
<03201> (8799)
not stand
<06965> (8800)
before
<06440>
their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
[but] turned
<06437> (8799)
[their] backs
<06203>
before
<06440>
their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
because they were accursed
<02764>_:
neither will I be with you any more
<03254> (8686)_,
except
<03808>
ye destroy
<08045> (8686)
the accursed
<02764>
from among
<07130>
you.
7:13
Up
<06965> (8798)_,
sanctify
<06942> (8761)
the people
<05971>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Sanctify
<06942> (8690)
yourselves against to morrow
<04279>_:
for thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[There is] an accursed thing
<02764>
in the midst
<07130>
of thee, O Israel
<03478>_:
thou canst
<03201> (8799)
not stand
<06965> (8800)
before
<06440>
thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
until ye take away
<05493> (8687)
the accursed thing
<02764>
from among
<07130>
you.
7:14
In the morning
<01242>
therefore ye shall be brought
<07126> (8738)
according to your tribes
<07626>_:
and it shall be, [that] the tribe
<07626>
which the LORD
<03068>
taketh
<03920> (8799)
shall come
<07126> (8799)
according to the families
<04940>
[thereof]; and the family
<04940>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall take
<03920> (8799)
shall come
<07126> (8799)
by households
<01004>_;
and the household
<01004>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall take
<03920> (8799)
shall come
<07126> (8799)
man
<01397>
by man
<01397>_.
7:15
And it shall be, [that] he that is taken
<03920> (8737)
with the accursed thing
<02764>
shall be burnt
<08313> (8735)
with fire
<0784>_,
he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressed
<05674> (8804)
the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and because he hath wrought
<06213> (8804)
folly
<05039>
in Israel
<03478>_.
{folly: or, wickedness}
7:16
So Joshua
<03091>
rose up early
<07925> (8686)
in the morning
<01242>_,
and brought
<07126> (8686)
Israel
<03478>
by their tribes
<07626>_;
and the tribe
<07626>
of Judah
<03063>
was taken
<03920> (8735)_:
7:17
And he brought
<07126> (8686)
the family
<04940>
of Judah
<03063>_;
and he took
<03920> (8799)
the family
<04940>
of the Zarhites
<02227>_:
and he brought
<07126> (8686)
the family
<04940>
of the Zarhites
<02227>
man
<01397>
by man
<01397>_;
and Zabdi
<02067>
was taken
<03920> (8735)_:
7:18
And he brought
<07126> (8686)
his household
<01004>
man
<01397>
by man
<01397>_;
and Achan
<05912>_,
the son
<01121>
of Carmi
<03756>_,
the son
<01121>
of Zabdi
<02067>_,
the son
<01121>
of Zerah
<02226>_,
of the tribe
<04294>
of Judah
<03063>_,
was taken
<03920> (8735)_.
7:19
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Achan
<05912>_,
My son
<01121>_,
give
<07760> (8798)_,
I pray thee, glory
<03519>
to the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and make
<05414> (8798)
confession
<08426>
unto him; and tell
<05046> (8685)
me now what thou hast done
<06213> (8804)_;
hide
<03582> (8762)
[it] not from me.
7:20
And Achan
<05912>
answered
<06030> (8799)
Joshua
<03091>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Indeed
<0546>
I have sinned
<02398> (8804)
against the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and thus and thus have I done
<06213> (8804)_:
7:21
When I saw
<07200> (8799)
among the spoils
<07998>
a
<0259>
goodly
<02896>
Babylonish
<08152>
garment
<0155>_,
and two hundred
<03967>
shekels
<08255>
of silver
<03701>_,
and a
<0259>
wedge
<03956>
of gold
<02091>
of fifty
<02572>
shekels
<08255>
weight
<04948>_,
then I coveted
<02530> (8799)
them, and took
<03947> (8799)
them; and, behold, they [are] hid
<02934> (8803)
in the earth
<0776>
in the midst
<08432>
of my tent
<0168>_,
and the silver
<03701>
under it. {wedge: Heb. tongue}
7:22
So Joshua
<03091>
sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>_,
and they ran
<07323> (8799)
unto the tent
<0168>_;
and, behold, [it was] hid
<02934> (8803)
in his tent
<0168>_,
and the silver
<03701>
under it.
7:23
And they took
<03947> (8799)
them out of the midst
<08432>
of the tent
<0168>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
them unto Joshua
<03091>_,
and unto all the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and laid them out
<03332> (8686)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_.
{laid: Heb. poured}
7:24
And Joshua
<03091>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, took
<03947> (8799)
Achan
<05912>
the son
<01121>
of Zerah
<02226>_,
and the silver
<03701>_,
and the garment
<0155>_,
and the wedge
<03956>
of gold
<02091>_,
and his sons
<01121>_,
and his daughters
<01323>_,
and his oxen
<07794>_,
and his asses
<02543>_,
and his sheep
<06629>_,
and his tent
<0168>_,
and all that he had: and they brought
<05927> (8686)
them unto the valley
<06010>
of Achor
<05911>_.
7:25
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Why
<04100>
hast thou troubled
<05916> (8804)
us? the LORD
<03068>
shall trouble
<05916> (8799)
thee this day
<03117>_.
And all Israel
<03478>
stoned
<07275> (8799)
him with stones
<068>_,
and burned
<08313> (8799)
them with fire
<0784>_,
after they had stoned
<05619> (8799)
them with stones
<068>_.
7:26
And they raised
<06965> (8686)
over him a great
<01419>
heap
<01530>
of stones
<068>
unto this day
<03117>_.
So the LORD
<03068>
turned
<07725> (8799)
from the fierceness
<02740>
of his anger
<0639>_.
Wherefore the name
<08034>
of that place
<04725>
was called
<07121> (8804)_,
The valley
<06010>
of Achor
<05911>_,
unto this day
<03117>_.
{Achor: that is, Trouble}
8:1
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Fear
<03372> (8799)
not, neither be thou dismayed
<02865> (8735)_:
take
<03947> (8798)
all the people
<05971>
of war
<04421>
with thee, and arise
<06965> (8798)_,
go up
<05927> (8798)
to Ai
<05857>_:
see
<07200> (8798)_,
I have given
<05414> (8804)
into thy hand
<03027>
the king
<04428>
of Ai
<05857>_,
and his people
<05971>_,
and his city
<05892>_,
and his land
<0776>_:
8:2
And thou shalt do
<06213> (8804)
to Ai
<05857>
and her king
<04428>
as thou didst
<06213> (8804)
unto Jericho
<03405>
and her king
<04428>_:
only the spoil
<07998>
thereof, and the cattle
<0929>
thereof, shall ye take for a prey
<0962> (8799)
unto yourselves: lay
<07760> (8798)
thee an ambush
<0693> (8802)
for the city
<05892>
behind
<0310>
it.
8:3
So Joshua
<03091>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and all the people
<05971>
of war
<04421>_,
to go up
<05927> (8800)
against Ai
<05857>_:
and Joshua
<03091>
chose out
<0977> (8799)
thirty
<07970>
thousand
<0505>
mighty
<01368>
men
<0376>
of valour
<02428>_,
and sent them away
<07971> (8799)
by night
<03915>_.
8:4
And he commanded
<06680> (8762)
them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold
<07200> (8798)_,
ye shall lie in wait
<0693> (8802)
against the city
<05892>_,
[even] behind
<0310>
the city
<05892>_:
go
<07368> (0)
not very
<03966>
far
<07368> (8686)
from the city
<05892>_,
but be ye all ready
<03559> (8737)_:
8:5
And I, and all the people
<05971>
that [are] with me, will approach
<07126> (8799)
unto the city
<05892>_:
and it shall come to pass, when they come out
<03318> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
us, as at the first
<07223>_,
that we will flee
<05127> (8804)
before
<06440>
them,
8:6
(For they will come out
<03318> (8804)
after
<0310>
us) till we have drawn
<05423> (8687)
them from the city
<05892>_;
for they will say
<0559> (8799)_,
They flee
<05127> (8801)
before
<06440>
us, as at the first
<07223>_:
therefore we will flee
<05127> (8804)
before
<06440>
them. {drawn: Heb. pulled}
8:7
Then ye shall rise up
<06965> (8799)
from the ambush
<0693> (8802)_,
and seize
<03423> (8689)
upon the city
<05892>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
will deliver
<05414> (8804)
it into your hand
<03027>_.
8:8
And it shall be, when ye have taken
<08610> (8800)
the city
<05892>_,
[that] ye shall set
<03341> (8686)
the city
<05892>
on fire
<0784>_:
according to the commandment
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall ye do
<06213> (8799)_.
See
<07200> (8798)_,
I have commanded
<06680> (8765)
you.
8:9
Joshua
<03091>
therefore sent them forth
<07971> (8799)_:
and they went
<03212> (8799)
to lie in ambush
<03993>_,
and abode
<03427> (8799)
between Bethel
<01008>
and Ai
<05857>_,
on the west side
<03220>
of Ai
<05857>_:
but Joshua
<03091>
lodged
<03885> (8799)
that night
<03915>
among
<08432>
the people
<05971>_.
8:10
And Joshua
<03091>
rose up early
<07925> (8686)
in the morning
<01242>_,
and numbered
<06485> (8799)
the people
<05971>_,
and went up
<05927> (8799)_,
he and the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>_,
before
<06440>
the people
<05971>
to Ai
<05857>_.
8:11
And all the people
<05971>_,
[even the people] of war
<04421>
that [were] with him, went up
<05927> (8804)_,
and drew nigh
<05066> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
before the city
<05892>_,
and pitched
<02583> (8799)
on the north side
<06828>
of Ai
<05857>_:
now [there was] a valley
<01516>
between them and Ai
<05857>_.
8:12
And he took
<03947> (8799)
about five
<02568>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_,
and set
<07760> (8799)
them to lie in ambush
<0693> (8802)
between Bethel
<01008>
and Ai
<05857>_,
on the west side
<03220>
of the city
<05857> (8675) <05892>_.
{of...: or, of Ai}
8:13
And when they had set
<07760> (8799)
the people
<05971>_,
[even] all the host
<04264>
that [was] on the north
<06828>
of the city
<05892>_,
and their liers in wait
<06119>
on the west
<03220>
of the city
<05892>_,
Joshua
<03091>
went
<03212> (8799)
that night
<03915>
into the midst
<08432>
of the valley
<06010>_.
{liers...: Heb. lying in wait}
8:14
And it came to pass, when the king
<04428>
of Ai
<05857>
saw
<07200> (8800)
[it], that they hasted
<04116> (8762)
and rose up early
<07925> (8686)_,
and the men
<0582>
of the city
<05892>
went out
<03318> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
Israel
<03478>
to battle
<04421>_,
he and all his people
<05971>_,
at a time appointed
<04150>_,
before
<06440>
the plain
<06160>_;
but he wist
<03045> (8804)
not that [there were] liers in ambush
<0693> (8802)
against him behind
<0310>
the city
<05892>_.
8:15
And Joshua
<03091>
and all Israel
<03478>
made as if they were beaten
<05060> (8735)
before
<06440>
them, and fled
<05127> (8799)
by the way
<01870>
of the wilderness
<04057>_.
8:16
And all the people
<05971>
that [were] in Ai
<05857> (8675) <05892>
were called
<02199> (8735)
together to pursue
<07291> (8800)
after
<0310>
them: and they pursued
<07291> (8799)
after
<0310>
Joshua
<03091>_,
and were drawn away
<05423> (8735)
from the city
<05892>_.
8:17
And there was not a man
<0376>
left
<07604> (8738)
in Ai
<05857>
or Bethel
<01008>_,
that went not out
<03318> (8804)
after
<0310>
Israel
<03478>_:
and they left
<05800> (8799)
the city
<05892>
open
<06605> (8803)_,
and pursued
<07291> (8799)
after Israel
<03478>_.
8:18
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Stretch out
<05186> (8798)
the spear
<03591>
that [is] in thy hand
<03027>
toward Ai
<05857>_;
for I will give
<05414> (8799)
it into thine hand
<03027>_.
And Joshua
<03091>
stretched out
<05186> (8799)
the spear
<03591>
that [he had] in his hand
<03027>
toward the city
<05892>_.
8:19
And the ambush
<0693> (8802)
arose
<06965> (8804)
quickly
<04120>
out of their place
<04725>_,
and they ran
<07323> (8799)
as soon as he had stretched out
<05186> (8800)
his hand
<03027>_:
and they entered
<0935> (8799)
into the city
<05892>_,
and took
<03920> (8799)
it, and hasted
<04116> (8762)
and set
<03341> (8686)
the city
<05892>
on fire
<0784>_.
8:20
And when the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>
looked
<06437> (8799)
behind
<0310>
them, they saw
<07200> (8799)_,
and, behold, the smoke
<06227>
of the city
<05892>
ascended up
<05927> (8804)
to heaven
<08064>_,
and they had no power
<03027>
to flee
<05127> (8800)
this way or that way
<02008>_:
and the people
<05971>
that fled
<05127> (8801)
to the wilderness
<04057>
turned back
<02015> (8738)
upon the pursuers
<07291> (8802)_.
{power: Heb. hand}
8:21
And when Joshua
<03091>
and all Israel
<03478>
saw
<07200> (8804)
that the ambush
<0693> (8802)
had taken
<03920> (8804)
the city
<05892>_,
and that the smoke
<06227>
of the city
<05892>
ascended
<05927> (8804)_,
then they turned again
<07725> (8799)_,
and slew
<05221> (8686)
the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>_.
8:22
And the other
<0428>
issued out
<03318> (8804)
of the city
<05892>
against
<07125> (8800)
them; so they were in the midst
<08432>
of Israel
<03478>_,
some on this side, and some on that side: and they smote
<05221> (8686)
them, so that
<05704>
they let
<07604> (8689)
none of them remain
<08300>
or escape
<06412>_.
8:23
And the king
<04428>
of Ai
<05857>
they took
<08610> (8804)
alive
<02416>_,
and brought
<07126> (8686)
him to Joshua
<03091>_.
8:24
And it came to pass, when Israel
<03478>
had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of slaying
<02026> (8800)
all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Ai
<05857>
in the field
<07704>_,
in the wilderness
<04057>
wherein they chased
<07291> (8804)
them, and when they were all fallen
<05307> (8799)
on the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
until they were consumed
<08552> (8800)_,
that all the Israelites
<03478>
returned
<07725> (8799)
unto Ai
<05857>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
it with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_.
8:25
And [so] it was, [that] all that fell
<05307> (8802)
that day
<03117>_,
both of men
<0376>
and women
<0802>_,
[were] twelve
<08147> <06240>
thousand
<0505>_,
[even] all the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>_.
8:26
For Joshua
<03091>
drew
<07725> (0)
not his hand
<03027>
back
<07725> (8689)_,
wherewith he stretched out
<05186> (8804)
the spear
<03591>_,
until he had utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)
all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Ai
<05857>_.
8:27
Only the cattle
<0929>
and the spoil
<07998>
of that city
<05892>
Israel
<03478>
took for a prey
<0962> (8804)
unto themselves, according unto the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
which he commanded
<06680> (8765)
Joshua
<03091>_.
8:28
And Joshua
<03091>
burnt
<08313> (8799)
Ai
<05857>_,
and made
<07760> (8799)
it an heap
<08510>
for ever
<05769>_,
[even] a desolation
<08077>
unto this day
<03117>_.
8:29
And the king
<04428>
of Ai
<05857>
he hanged
<08518> (8804)
on a tree
<06086>
until eventide
<06256> <06153>_:
and as soon as the sun
<08121>
was down
<0935> (8800)_,
Joshua
<03091>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
that they should take
<03381> (0)
his carcase
<05038>
down
<03381> (8686)
from the tree
<06086>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
it at the entering
<06607>
of the gate
<08179>
of the city
<05892>_,
and raise
<06965> (8686)
thereon a great
<01419>
heap
<01530>
of stones
<068>_,
[that remaineth] unto this day
<03117>_.
8:30
Then Joshua
<03091>
built
<01129> (8799)
an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
in mount
<02022>
Ebal
<05858>_,
8:31
As Moses
<04872>
the servant
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
as it is written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the law
<08451>
of Moses
<04872>_,
an altar
<04196>
of whole
<08003>
stones
<068>_,
over which no man hath lift up
<05130> (8689)
[any] iron
<01270>_:
and they offered
<05927> (8686)
thereon burnt offerings
<05930>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and sacrificed
<02076> (8799)
peace offerings
<08002>_.
8:32
And he wrote
<03789> (8799)
there upon the stones
<068>
a copy
<04932>
of the law
<08451>
of Moses
<04872>_,
which he wrote
<03789> (8804)
in the presence
<06440>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
8:33
And all Israel
<03478>_,
and their elders
<02205>_,
and officers
<07860> (8802)_,
and their judges
<08199> (8802)_,
stood
<05975> (8802)
on this side the ark
<0727>
and on that side before the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>_,
which bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
as well the stranger
<01616>_,
as he that was born
<0249>
among them; half
<02677>
of them over
<0413>
against
<04136>
mount
<02022>
Gerizim
<01630>_,
and half
<02677>
of them over against
<04136>
mount
<02022>
Ebal
<05858>_;
as Moses
<04872>
the servant
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>
had commanded
<06680> (8765)
before
<07223>_,
that they should bless
<01288> (8763)
the people
<05971>
of Israel
<03478>_.
8:34
And afterward
<0310>
he read
<07121> (8804)
all the words
<01697>
of the law
<08451>_,
the blessings
<01293>
and cursings
<07045>_,
according to all that is written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the law
<08451>_.
8:35
There was not a word
<01697>
of all that Moses
<04872>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_,
which Joshua
<03091>
read
<07121> (8804)
not before all the congregation
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>_,
with the women
<0802>_,
and the little ones
<02945>_,
and the strangers
<01616>
that were conversant
<01980> (8802)
among
<07130>
them. {were...: Heb. walked}
9:1
And it came to pass, when all the kings
<04428>
which [were] on this side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_,
in the hills
<02022>_,
and in the valleys
<08219>_,
and in all the coasts
<02348>
of the great
<01419>
sea
<03220>
over against
<04136>
Lebanon
<03844>_,
the Hittite
<02850>_,
and the Amorite
<0567>_,
the Canaanite
<03669>_,
the Perizzite
<06522>_,
the Hivite
<02340>_,
and the Jebusite
<02983>_,
heard
<08085> (8800)
[thereof];
9:2
That they gathered
<06908> (8691)
themselves together
<03162>_,
to fight
<03898> (8736)
with Joshua
<03091>
and with Israel
<03478>_,
with one
<0259>
accord
<06310>_.
{accord: Heb. mouth}
9:3
And when the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Gibeon
<01391>
heard
<08085> (8804)
what Joshua
<03091>
had done
<06213> (8804)
unto Jericho
<03405>
and to Ai
<05857>_,
9:4
They did work
<06213> (8799)
wilily
<06195>_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
and made as if they had been ambassadors
<06737> (8691)_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
old
<01087>
sacks
<08242>
upon their asses
<02543>_,
and wine
<03196>
bottles
<04997>_,
old
<01087>_,
and rent
<01234> (8794)_,
and bound up
<06887> (8794)_;
9:5
And old
<01087>
shoes
<05275>
and clouted
<02921> (8794)
upon their feet
<07272>_,
and old
<01087>
garments
<08008>
upon them; and all the bread
<03899>
of their provision
<06718>
was dry
<03001> (8804)
[and] mouldy
<05350>_.
9:6
And they went
<03212> (8799)
to Joshua
<03091>
unto the camp
<04264>
at Gilgal
<01537>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, and to the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>_,
We be come
<0935> (8804)
from a far
<07350>
country
<0776>_:
now therefore make
<03772> (8798)
ye a league
<01285>
with us.
9:7
And the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the Hivites
<02340>_,
Peradventure
<0194>
ye dwell
<03427> (8802)
among
<07130>
us; and how shall we make
<03772> (8799)
a league
<01285>
with you?
9:8
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
We [are] thy servants
<05650>_.
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Who [are] ye? and from whence
<0370>
come
<0935> (8799)
ye?
9:9
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, From a very
<03966>
far
<07350>
country
<0776>
thy servants
<05650>
are come
<0935> (8804)
because of the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
for we have heard
<08085> (8804)
the fame
<08089>
of him, and all that he did
<06213> (8804)
in Egypt
<04714>_,
9:10
And all that he did
<06213> (8804)
to the two
<08147>
kings
<04428>
of the Amorites
<0567>_,
that [were] beyond
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_,
to Sihon
<05511>
king
<04428>
of Heshbon
<02809>_,
and to Og
<05747>
king
<04428>
of Bashan
<01316>_,
which [was] at Ashtaroth
<06252>_.
9:11
Wherefore our elders
<02205>
and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of our country
<0776>
spake
<0559> (8799)
to us, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
victuals
<06720>
with you
<03027>
for the journey
<01870>_,
and go
<03212> (8798)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
them, and say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, We [are] your servants
<05650>_:
therefore now make
<03772> (8798)
ye a league
<01285>
with us. {with you: Heb. in your hand}
9:12
This our bread
<03899>
we took hot
<02525>
[for] our provision
<06679> (8694)
out of our houses
<01004>
on the day
<03117>
we came forth
<03318> (8800)
to go
<03212> (8800)
unto you; but now, behold, it is dry
<03001> (8804)_,
and it is mouldy
<05350>_:
9:13
And these bottles
<04997>
of wine
<03196>_,
which we filled
<04390> (8765)_,
[were] new
<02319>_;
and, behold, they be rent
<01234> (8694)_:
and these our garments
<08008>
and our shoes
<05275>
are become old
<01086> (8804)
by reason of the very
<03966>
long
<07230>
journey
<01870>_.
9:14
And the men
<0582>
took
<03947> (8799)
of their victuals
<06718>_,
and asked
<07592> (8804)
not [counsel] at the mouth
<06310>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{the men...: or, they received the men by reason of their victuals}
9:15
And Joshua
<03091>
made
<06213> (8799)
peace
<07965>
with them, and made
<03772> (8799)
a league
<01285>
with them, to let them live
<02421> (8763)_:
and the princes
<05387>
of the congregation
<05712>
sware
<07650> (8735)
unto them.
9:16
And it came to pass at the end
<07097>
of three
<07969>
days
<03117>
after
<0310>
they had made
<03772> (8804)
a league
<01285>
with them, that they heard
<08085> (8799)
that they [were] their neighbours
<07138>_,
and [that] they dwelt
<03427> (8802)
among
<07130>
them.
9:17
And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
journeyed
<05265> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
unto their cities
<05892>
on the third
<07992>
day
<03117>_.
Now their cities
<05892>
[were] Gibeon
<01391>_,
and Chephirah
<03716>_,
and Beeroth
<0881>_,
and Kirjathjearim
<07157>_.
9:18
And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
smote
<05221> (8689)
them not, because the princes
<05387>
of the congregation
<05712>
had sworn
<07650> (8738)
unto them by the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And all the congregation
<05712>
murmured
<03885> (8735)
against the princes
<05387>_.
9:19
But all the princes
<05387>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto all the congregation
<05712>_,
We have sworn
<07650> (8738)
unto them by the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_:
now therefore we may
<03201> (8799)
not touch
<05060> (8800)
them.
9:20
This we will do
<06213> (8799)
to them; we will even let them live
<02421> (8687)_,
lest wrath
<07110>
be upon us, because of the oath
<07621>
which we sware
<07650> (8738)
unto them.
9:21
And the princes
<05387>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Let them live
<02421> (8799)_;
but let them be hewers
<02404> (8802)
of wood
<06086>
and drawers
<07579> (8802)
of water
<04325>
unto all the congregation
<05712>_;
as the princes
<05387>
had promised
<01696> (8765)
them.
9:22
And Joshua
<03091>
called
<07121> (8799)
for them, and he spake
<01696> (8762)
unto them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Wherefore have ye beguiled
<07411> (8765)
us, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
We [are] very
<03966>
far
<07350>
from you; when ye dwell
<03427> (8802)
among
<07130>
us?
9:23
Now therefore ye [are] cursed
<0779> (8803)_,
and there shall none of you be freed
<03772> (8735)
from being bondmen
<05650>_,
and hewers
<02404> (8802)
of wood
<06086>
and drawers
<07579> (8802)
of water
<04325>
for the house
<01004>
of my God
<0430>_.
{none...: Heb. not be cut off from you}
9:24
And they answered
<06030> (8799)
Joshua
<03091>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Because it was certainly
<05046> (8715)
told
<05046> (8717)
thy servants
<05650>_,
how that the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
his servant
<05650>
Moses
<04872>
to give
<05414> (8800)
you all the land
<0776>_,
and to destroy
<08045> (8687)
all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>
from before
<06440>
you, therefore we were sore
<03966>
afraid
<03372> (8799)
of our lives
<05315>
because
<06440>
of you, and have done
<06213> (8799)
this thing
<01697>_.
9:25
And now, behold, we
<02009>
[are] in thine hand
<03027>_:
as it seemeth
<05869>
good
<02896>
and right
<03477>
unto thee to do
<06213> (8800)
unto us, do
<06213> (8798)_.
9:26
And so did
<06213> (8799)
he unto them, and delivered
<05337> (8686)
them out of the hand
<03027>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
that they slew
<02026> (8804)
them not.
9:27
And Joshua
<03091>
made
<05414> (8799)
them that day
<03117>
hewers
<02404> (8802)
of wood
<06086>
and drawers
<07579> (8802)
of water
<04325>
for the congregation
<05712>_,
and for the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
even unto this day
<03117>_,
in the place
<04725>
which he should choose
<0977> (8799)_.
{made: Heb. gave, or, delivered to be}
10:1
Now it came to pass, when Adonizedek
<0139>
king
<04428>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
had heard
<08085> (8800)
how
<03588>
Joshua
<03091>
had taken
<03920> (8804)
Ai
<05857>_,
and had utterly destroyed
<02763> (8686)
it; as he had done
<06213> (8804)
to Jericho
<03405>
and her king
<04428>_,
so he had done
<06213> (8804)
to Ai
<05857>
and her king
<04428>_;
and how the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Gibeon
<01391>
had made peace
<07999> (8689)
with Israel
<03478>_,
and were among
<07130>
them;
10:2
That they feared
<03372> (8799)
greatly
<03966>_,
because Gibeon
<01391>
[was] a great
<01419>
city
<05892>_,
as one
<0259>
of the royal
<04467>
cities
<05892>_,
and because it [was] greater
<01419>
than Ai
<05857>_,
and all the men
<0582>
thereof [were] mighty
<01368>_.
{royal...: Heb. cities of the kingdom}
10:3
Wherefore Adonizedek
<0139>
king
<04428>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
sent
<07971> (8799)
unto Hoham
<01944>
king
<04428>
of Hebron
<02275>_,
and unto Piram
<06502>
king
<04428>
of Jarmuth
<03412>_,
and unto Japhia
<03309>
king
<04428>
of Lachish
<03923>_,
and unto Debir
<01688>
king
<04428>
of Eglon
<05700>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
10:4
Come up
<05927> (8798)
unto me, and help
<05826> (8798)
me, that we may smite
<05221> (8686)
Gibeon
<01391>_:
for it hath made peace
<07999> (8689)
with Joshua
<03091>
and with the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
10:5
Therefore the five
<02568>
kings
<04428>
of the Amorites
<0567>_,
the king
<04428>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the king
<04428>
of Hebron
<02275>_,
the king
<04428>
of Jarmuth
<03412>_,
the king
<04428>
of Lachish
<03923>_,
the king
<04428>
of Eglon
<05700>_,
gathered themselves together
<0622> (8735)_,
and went up
<05927> (8799)_,
they and all their hosts
<04264>_,
and encamped
<02583> (8799)
before Gibeon
<01391>_,
and made war
<03898> (8735)
against it.
10:6
And the men
<0582>
of Gibeon
<01391>
sent
<07971> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>
to the camp
<04264>
to Gilgal
<01537>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Slack
<07503> (8686)
not thy hand
<03027>
from thy servants
<05650>_;
come up
<05927> (8798)
to us quickly
<04120>_,
and save
<03467> (8685)
us, and help
<05826> (8798)
us: for all the kings
<04428>
of the Amorites
<0567>
that dwell
<03427> (8802)
in the mountains
<02022>
are gathered together
<06908> (8738)
against us.
10:7
So Joshua
<03091>
ascended
<05927> (8799)
from Gilgal
<01537>_,
he, and all the people
<05971>
of war
<04421>
with him, and all the mighty
<01368>
men of valour
<02428>_.
10:8
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Fear
<03372> (8799)
them not: for I have delivered
<05414> (8804)
them into thine hand
<03027>_;
there shall not a man
<0376>
of them stand
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
thee.
10:9
Joshua
<03091>
therefore came
<0935> (8799)
unto them suddenly
<06597>_,
[and] went up
<05927> (8804)
from Gilgal
<01537>
all night
<03915>_.
10:10
And the LORD
<03068>
discomfited
<02000> (8799)
them before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_,
and slew
<05221> (8686)
them with a great
<01419>
slaughter
<04347>
at Gibeon
<01391>_,
and chased
<07291> (8799)
them along the way
<01870>
that goeth up
<04608>
to Bethhoron
<01032>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
them to Azekah
<05825>_,
and unto Makkedah
<04719>_.
10:11
And it came to pass, as they fled
<05127> (8800)
from before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_,
[and] were in the going down
<04174>
to Bethhoron
<01032>_,
that the LORD
<03068>
cast down
<07993> (8689)
great
<01419>
stones
<068>
from heaven
<08064>
upon them unto Azekah
<05825>_,
and they died
<04191> (8799)_:
[they were] more
<07227>
which died
<04191> (8804)
with hailstones
<01259> <068>
than [they] whom
<0834>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
slew
<02026> (8804)
with the sword
<02719>_.
10:12
Then spake
<01696> (8762)
Joshua
<03091>
to the LORD
<03068>
in the day
<03117>
when the LORD
<03068>
delivered up
<05414> (8800)
the Amorites
<0567>
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and he said
<0559> (8799)
in the sight
<05869>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Sun
<08121>_,
stand thou still
<01826> (8798)
upon Gibeon
<01391>_;
and thou, Moon
<03394>_,
in the valley
<06010>
of Ajalon
<0357>_.
{stand...: Heb. be silent}
10:13
And the sun
<08121>
stood still
<01826> (8799)_,
and the moon
<03394>
stayed
<05975> (8804)_,
until the people
<01471>
had avenged
<05358> (8799)
themselves upon their enemies
<0341> (8802)_.
[Is] not this
<01931>
written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of Jasher
<03477>_?
So the sun
<08121>
stood still
<05975> (8799)
in the midst
<02677>
of heaven
<08064>_,
and hasted
<0213> (8804)
not to go down
<0935> (8800)
about a whole
<08549>
day
<03117>_.
{Jasher: or, the upright?}
10:14
And there was no day
<03117>
like that before
<06440>
it or after
<0310>
it, that the LORD
<03068>
hearkened
<08085> (8800)
unto the voice
<06963>
of a man
<0376>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
fought
<03898> (8737)
for Israel
<03478>_.
10:15
And Joshua
<03091>
returned
<07725> (8799)_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, unto the camp
<04264>
to Gilgal
<01537>_.
10:16
But these five
<02568>
kings
<04428>
fled
<05127> (8799)_,
and hid
<02244> (8735)
themselves in a cave
<04631>
at Makkedah
<04719>_.
10:17
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
Joshua
<03091>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The five
<02568>
kings
<04428>
are found
<04672> (8738)
hid
<02244> (8737)
in a cave
<04631>
at Makkedah
<04719>_.
10:18
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Roll
<01556> (8798)
great
<01419>
stones
<068>
upon the mouth
<06310>
of the cave
<04631>_,
and set
<06485> (8685)
men
<0582>
by it for to keep
<08104> (8800)
them:
10:19
And stay
<05975> (8799)
ye not, [but] pursue
<07291> (8798)
after
<0310>
your enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and smite the hindmost
<02179> (8765)
of them; suffer
<05414> (8799)
them not to enter
<0935> (8800)
into their cities
<05892>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
them into your hand
<03027>_.
{smite...: Heb. cut off the tail}
10:20
And it came to pass, when Joshua
<03091>
and the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of slaying
<05221> (8687)
them with a very
<03966>
great
<01419>
slaughter
<04347>_,
till they were consumed
<08552> (8800)_,
that the rest
<08300>
[which] remained
<08277> (8804)
of them entered
<0935> (8799)
into fenced
<04013>
cities
<05892>_.
10:21
And all the people
<05971>
returned
<07725> (8799)
to the camp
<04264>
to Joshua
<03091>
at Makkedah
<04719>
in peace
<07965>_:
none moved
<02782> (8804)
his tongue
<03956>
against any
<0376>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
10:22
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Joshua
<03091>_,
Open
<06605> (8798)
the mouth
<06310>
of the cave
<04631>_,
and bring out
<03318> (8685)
those five
<02568>
kings
<04428>
unto me out of the cave
<04631>_.
10:23
And they did
<06213> (8799)
so, and brought forth
<03318> (8686)
those five
<02568>
kings
<04428>
unto him out of the cave
<04631>_,
the king
<04428>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the king
<04428>
of Hebron
<02275>_,
the king
<04428>
of Jarmuth
<03412>_,
the king
<04428>
of Lachish
<03923>_,
[and] the king
<04428>
of Eglon
<05700>_.
10:24
And it came to pass, when they brought out
<03318> (8687)
those kings
<04428>
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
that Joshua
<03091>
called
<07121> (8799)
for all the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto the captains
<07101>
of the men
<0582>
of war
<04421>
which went
<01980> (8804)
with him, Come near
<07126> (8798)_,
put
<07760> (8798)
your feet
<07272>
upon the necks
<06677>
of these kings
<04428>_.
And they came near
<07126> (8799)_,
and put
<07760> (8799)
their feet
<07272>
upon the necks
<06677>
of them.
10:25
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Fear
<03372> (8799)
not, nor be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_,
be strong
<02388> (8798)
and of good courage
<0553> (8798)_:
for thus shall the LORD
<03068>
do
<06213> (8799)
to all your enemies
<0341> (8802)
against whom ye fight
<03898> (8737)_.
10:26
And afterward
<0310>
Joshua
<03091>
smote
<05221> (8686)
them, and slew
<04191> (8686)
them, and hanged
<08518> (8799)
them on five
<02568>
trees
<06086>_:
and they were hanging
<08518> (8803)
upon the trees
<06086>
until the evening
<06153>_.
10:27
And it came to pass at the time
<06256>
of the going down
<0935> (8800)
of the sun
<08121>_,
[that] Joshua
<03091>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_,
and they took them down
<03381> (8686)
off the trees
<06086>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
them into the cave
<04631>
wherein they had been hid
<02244> (8738)_,
and laid
<07760> (8799)
great
<01419>
stones
<068>
in the cave's
<04631>
mouth
<06310>_,
[which remain] until this very
<06106>
day
<03117>_.
10:28
And that day
<03117>
Joshua
<03091>
took
<03920> (8804)
Makkedah
<04719>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
it with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and the king
<04428>
thereof he utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)_,
them, and all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein; he let
<07604> (8689)
none remain
<08300>_:
and he did
<06213> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
of Makkedah
<04719>
as he did
<06213> (8804)
unto the king
<04428>
of Jericho
<03405>_.
10:29
Then Joshua
<03091>
passed
<05674> (8799)
from Makkedah
<04719>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, unto Libnah
<03841>_,
and fought
<03898> (8735)
against Libnah
<03841>_:
10:30
And the LORD
<03068>
delivered
<05414> (8799)
it also, and the king
<04428>
thereof, into the hand
<03027>
of Israel
<03478>_;
and he smote
<05221> (8686)
it with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein; he let
<07604> (8689)
none remain
<08300>
in it; but did
<06213> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>
thereof as he did
<06213> (8804)
unto the king
<04428>
of Jericho
<03405>_.
10:31
And Joshua
<03091>
passed
<05674> (8799)
from Libnah
<03841>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, unto Lachish
<03923>_,
and encamped
<02583> (8799)
against it, and fought
<03898> (8735)
against it:
10:32
And the LORD
<03068>
delivered
<05414> (8799)
Lachish
<03923>
into the hand
<03027>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which took
<03920> (8799)
it on the second
<08145>
day
<03117>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
it with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein, according to all that he had done
<06213> (8804)
to Libnah
<03841>_.
10:33
Then Horam
<02036>
king
<04428>
of Gezer
<01507>
came up
<05927> (8804)
to help
<05826> (8800)
Lachish
<03923>_;
and Joshua
<03091>
smote
<05221> (8686)
him and his people
<05971>_,
until he had left
<07604> (8689)
him none remaining
<08300>_.
10:34
And from Lachish
<03923>
Joshua
<03091>
passed
<05674> (8799)
unto Eglon
<05700>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him; and they encamped
<02583> (8799)
against it, and fought
<03898> (8735)
against it:
10:35
And they took
<03920> (8799)
it on that day
<03117>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
it with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein he utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)
that day
<03117>_,
according to all that he had done
<06213> (8804)
to Lachish
<03923>_.
10:36
And Joshua
<03091>
went up
<05927> (8799)
from Eglon
<05700>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, unto Hebron
<02275>_;
and they fought
<03898> (8735)
against it:
10:37
And they took
<03920> (8799)
it, and smote
<05221> (8686)
it with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and the king
<04428>
thereof, and all the cities
<05892>
thereof, and all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein; he left
<07604> (8689)
none remaining
<08300>_,
according to all that he had done
<06213> (8804)
to Eglon
<05700>_;
but destroyed
<02763> (8686)
it utterly, and all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein.
10:38
And Joshua
<03091>
returned
<07725> (8799)_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, to Debir
<01688>_;
and fought
<03898> (8735)
against it:
10:39
And he took
<03920> (8799)
it, and the king
<04428>
thereof, and all the cities
<05892>
thereof; and they smote
<05221> (8686)
them with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and utterly destroyed
<02763> (8686)
all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein; he left
<07604> (8689)
none remaining
<08300>_:
as he had done
<06213> (8804)
to Hebron
<02275>_,
so he did
<06213> (8804)
to Debir
<01688>_,
and to the king
<04428>
thereof; as he had done
<06213> (8804)
also to Libnah
<03841>_,
and to her king
<04428>_.
10:40
So Joshua
<03091>
smote
<05221> (8686)
all the country
<0776>
of the hills
<02022>_,
and of the south
<05045>_,
and of the vale
<08219>_,
and of the springs
<0794>_,
and all their kings
<04428>_:
he left
<07604> (8689)
none remaining
<08300>_,
but utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)
all that breathed
<05397>_,
as the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_.
10:41
And Joshua
<03091>
smote
<05221> (8686)
them from Kadeshbarnea
<06947>
even unto Gaza
<05804>_,
and all the country
<0776>
of Goshen
<01657>_,
even unto Gibeon
<01391>_.
10:42
And all these kings
<04428>
and their land
<0776>
did Joshua
<03091>
take
<03920> (8804)
at one
<0259>
time
<06471>_,
because the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
fought
<03898> (8737)
for Israel
<03478>_.
10:43
And Joshua
<03091>
returned
<07725> (8799)_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, unto the camp
<04264>
to Gilgal
<01537>_.
11:1
And it came to pass, when Jabin
<02985>
king
<04428>
of Hazor
<02674>
had heard
<08085> (8800)
[those things], that he sent
<07971> (8799)
to Jobab
<03103>
king
<04428>
of Madon
<04068>_,
and to the king
<04428>
of Shimron
<08110>_,
and to the king
<04428>
of Achshaph
<0407>_,
11:2
And to the kings
<04428>
that [were] on the north
<06828>
of the mountains
<02022>_,
and of the plains
<06160>
south
<05045>
of Chinneroth
<03672>_,
and in the valley
<08219>_,
and in the borders
<05299>
of Dor
<01756>
on the west
<03220>_,
11:3
[And to] the Canaanite
<03669>
on the east
<04217>
and on the west
<03220>_,
and [to] the Amorite
<0567>_,
and the Hittite
<02850>_,
and the Perizzite
<06522>_,
and the Jebusite
<02983>
in the mountains
<02022>_,
and [to] the Hivite
<02340>
under Hermon
<02768>
in the land
<0776>
of Mizpeh
<04709>_.
11:4
And they went out
<03318> (8799)_,
they and all their hosts
<04264>
with them, much
<07227>
people
<05971>_,
even as the sand
<02344>
that [is] upon the sea
<03220>
shore
<08193>
in multitude
<07230>_,
with horses
<05483>
and chariots
<07393>
very
<03966>
many
<07227>_.
11:5
And when all these kings
<04428>
were met together
<03259> (8735)_,
they came
<0935> (8799)
and pitched
<02583> (8799)
together
<03162>
at the waters
<04325>
of Merom
<04792>_,
to fight
<03898> (8736)
against Israel
<03478>_.
{met...: Heb. assembled by appointment}
11:6
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Be not afraid
<03372> (8799)
because
<06440>
of them: for to morrow
<04279>
about this time
<06256>
will I deliver them up
<05414> (8802)
all slain
<02491>
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_:
thou shalt hough
<06131> (8762)
their horses
<05483>_,
and burn
<08313> (8799)
their chariots
<04818>
with fire
<0784>_.
11:7
So Joshua
<03091>
came
<0935> (8799)_,
and all the people
<05971>
of war
<04421>
with him, against them by the waters
<04325>
of Merom
<04792>
suddenly
<06597>_;
and they fell upon
<05307> (8799)
them.
11:8
And the LORD
<03068>
delivered
<05414> (8799)
them into the hand
<03027>
of Israel
<03478>_,
who smote
<05221> (8686)
them, and chased
<07291> (8799)
them unto great
<07227>
Zidon
<06721>_,
and unto Misrephothmaim
<04956>_,
and unto the valley
<01237>
of Mizpeh
<04708>
eastward
<04217>_;
and they smote
<05221> (8686)
them, until they left
<07604> (8689)
them none remaining
<08300>_.
{great Zidon: or, Zidonrabbah} {Misrephothmaim: or, Salt pits: Heb. Burnings of waters}
11:9
And Joshua
<03091>
did
<06213> (8799)
unto them as the LORD
<03068>
bade
<0559> (8804)
him: he houghed
<06131> (8765)
their horses
<05483>_,
and burnt
<08313> (8804)
their chariots
<04818>
with fire
<0784>_.
11:10
And Joshua
<03091>
at that time
<06256>
turned back
<07725> (8799)_,
and took
<03920> (8799)
Hazor
<02674>_,
and smote
<05221> (8689)
the king
<04428>
thereof with the sword
<02719>_:
for Hazor
<02674>
beforetime
<06440>
was the head
<07218>
of all those kingdoms
<04467>_.
11:11
And they smote
<05221> (8686)
all the souls
<05315>
that [were] therein with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
utterly destroying
<02763> (8687)
[them]: there was not any left
<03498> (8738)
to breathe
<05397>_:
and he burnt
<08313> (8804)
Hazor
<02674>
with fire
<0784>_.
{any...: Heb. any breath}
11:12
And all the cities
<05892>
of those kings
<04428>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of them, did Joshua
<03091>
take
<03920> (8804)_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
them with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
[and] he utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)
them, as Moses
<04872>
the servant
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_.
11:13
But [as for] the cities
<05892>
that stood
<05975> (8802)
still in their strength
<08510>_,
Israel
<03478>
burned
<08313> (8804)
none of them, save
<02108>
Hazor
<02674>
only; [that] did Joshua
<03091>
burn
<08313> (8804)_.
{in their...: Heb. on their heap}
11:14
And all the spoil
<07998>
of these cities
<05892>_,
and the cattle
<0929>_,
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
took for a prey
<0962> (8804)
unto themselves; but every man
<0120>
they smote
<05221> (8689)
with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
until they had destroyed
<08045> (8687)
them, neither left
<07604> (8689)
they any to breathe
<05397>_.
11:15
As the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
Moses
<04872>
his servant
<05650>_,
so did Moses
<04872>
command
<06680> (8765)
Joshua
<03091>_,
and so did
<06213> (8804)
Joshua
<03091>_;
he left
<05493> (0)
nothing
<01697>
undone
<05493> (8689)
of all that the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
Moses
<04872>_.
{left...: Heb. removed nothing}
11:16
So Joshua
<03091>
took
<03947> (8799)
all that land
<0776>_,
the hills
<02022>_,
and all the south country
<05045>_,
and all the land
<0776>
of Goshen
<01657>_,
and the valley
<08219>_,
and the plain
<06160>_,
and the mountain
<02022>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and the valley
<08219>
of the same;
11:17
[Even] from the mount
<02022>
Halak
<02510>_,
that goeth up
<05927> (8802)
to Seir
<08165>_,
even unto Baalgad
<01171>
in the valley
<01237>
of Lebanon
<03844>
under mount
<02022>
Hermon
<02768>_:
and all their kings
<04428>
he took
<03920> (8804)_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
them, and slew
<04191> (8686)
them. {the mount...: or, the smooth mountain}
11:18
Joshua
<03091>
made
<06213> (8804)
war
<04421>
a long
<07227>
time
<03117>
with all those kings
<04428>_.
11:19
There was not a city
<05892>
that made peace
<07999> (8689)
with the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
save the Hivites
<02340>
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Gibeon
<01391>_:
all [other] they took
<03947> (8804)
in battle
<04421>_.
11:20
For it was of the LORD
<03068>
to harden
<02388> (8763)
their hearts
<03820>_,
that they should come against
<07125> (8800)
Israel
<03478>
in battle
<04421>_,
that he might destroy them utterly
<02763> (8687)_,
[and] that they might have no favour
<08467>_,
but that he might destroy
<08045> (8687)
them, as the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
Moses
<04872>_.
11:21
And at that time
<06256>
came
<0935> (8799)
Joshua
<03091>_,
and cut off
<03772> (8686)
the Anakims
<06062>
from the mountains
<02022>_,
from Hebron
<02275>_,
from Debir
<01688>_,
from Anab
<06024>_,
and from all the mountains
<02022>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and from all the mountains
<02022>
of Israel
<03478>_:
Joshua
<03091>
destroyed them utterly
<02763> (8689)
with their cities
<05892>_.
11:22
There was none of the Anakims
<06062>
left
<03498> (8738)
in the land
<0776>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
only in Gaza
<05804>_,
in Gath
<01661>_,
and in Ashdod
<0795>_,
there remained
<07604> (8738)_.
11:23
So Joshua
<03091>
took
<03947> (8799)
the whole land
<0776>_,
according to all that the LORD
<03068>
said
<01696> (8765)
unto Moses
<04872>_;
and Joshua
<03091>
gave
<05414> (8799)
it for an inheritance
<05159>
unto Israel
<03478>
according to their divisions
<04256>
by their tribes
<07626>_.
And the land
<0776>
rested
<08252> (8804)
from war
<04421>_.
