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>,
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>,
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>.
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>.
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> .
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>.
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.
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>.
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>.
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 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>.
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).
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) .
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>.
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> <00> nothing <01697> undone <05493> (8689) of all that the LORD <03068> commanded <06680> (8765) Moses <04872>.
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;
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.
18 Joshua <03091> made <06213> (8804) war <04421> a long <07227> time <03117> with all those kings <04428>.
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>.
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> .
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>.
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).
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>.
