The fun ftandeth fill. Chap. 7 So Joshua afcended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour. 8 And the LORD faid unto Jofhus, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there fhall not a man of them ftand before thee. 9 Joshua therefore came unto them fuddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night. 10 And the LORD difcomfited them before Ifrael, and flew them with a great flaughter at Gibeon, and chafed them along the way that goeth up to Beth-horon, and fmote them to Azekab,& unto Makkedah. And it came to pafs as they fled from before Ifrael, and were in the going down to Beth-horon, that the LORD calt down great ftones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died whail-ftones, than they whom the children of Ifrael flew with the fword. 12 Then ipake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Ifrael, and he faid in the fight of Ifrael, Sun, ftand thou ftill upon Gibeon, and thou noon, in the valley of Ajalon. 13 And the fun flood ftill, and the moon ftayed, until the people had avenged themfelves upon their enemies. Is nott his written in the book of Jasher? to the fun ftood ftill in the midft of heaven, and hafted not to go down about a whole day. 14 And there was no day like that, before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for lirael. 15 And Joshua returned, and all Ifrael with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. 16 But thefe five kings fled, and hid themfelves in a cave at Makkedah. 17 And it was told Jofhua, faying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah. 18 And Joshua faid, Roll great ftones upon the mouth of the cave, and fet men by it for to keep them. 19 And Itay you not, but purfue after your enemies, and fmite the hindmoft of them, fuffer them not to enter into their cities for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand. 20 And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Ifrael had made an end of flaying them wa very great flaughter till they were confumed that the reft which remained of them, entred into fenced cities. 21 And all the people returned to the eamp to Joshua at Makkedah, in peace: none moved his tongue againit any of the children of Ifrael. 22 Then faid Jofhua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out thofe five kings unto me out of the cave. 23 And they did fo, and brought forth thofe five kings unto him,out of the cave, the king of Jerufalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachith, and the king of Eglon. 24 And it came to pafs when theybrought out thole kings unto Joshua, that Jofhua x. Five kings banged. called for all the men of Ifrael, and faid unto the captains of the men of war,which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them. 25 And Joshua faid unto them, Fear not, nor be difmayed, be ftrong and of good courage for thus thail the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight. 26 And afterward Jofhua fmote them,and flew them, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening. 27 And it came to pass at the time of the. going down of the fan, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees,and caft them into the cave wherein they had been hid, and laid great ftones in the caves mouth, which remain until this very day. 28 11 And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and fmote it with the edge of the fword, and the king thereof he utterly deftroyed, them, and all the fouls that were therein, he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedan, as he did unto the king of Jericho. 29 Then Jofua paffed from Makkedah: and all Ifrael with him, unto Libnah, and fought againft Libnah. 30 And the LORD delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of irael, and he imote it with the edge of thefword, and all the fouls that were therein: he let none remain in it, but did unto the king thereof,as he did unto the king of Jericho. 31 And Joshua paffed from Libnah, and all Ifrael with him, unto Lachifh, and encamped againft it,and fought againftit. 31 And the LORD delivered Lachifh into the hand of Ifrael, which took it on the fecond day, and (mote it with the edge of the fword,& all the fouls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah. 33 Then Horam king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish; and Joshua fmote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining. 34 And from Lachifh Joshuapaffed unto Egion, and all Ifrael with him, and they encamped againit it, and fought againftit. 35 And they took it on that day, and fmote it with the edge of the fword, and all the fouls that were therein he utterly deltroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachith. 35 And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Ifrael with him, unto Hebron, and they fought against it. 37 And they took it and fmote it with the edge of the fword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the fouls that were therein: he left none remaining( according to all that he had done to Eglon) but deftroyed it utterly, and all the fouls that were therein. 38 And Joshua returned, and all Ifrael with him to Debir, and fought against it. 39 And he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and they fmote them with the edge of the fword, and utterly deftroyed all the fouls that were therein, he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, fo he did to Debir, and to the king thereof, as he had done alfo to Libnah, and to her king. 40 So Joshua fmote all the country of the hills, and of the (outh, and of the vale, and of the fprings, and all their kings; he left none remaining, but utterly deftroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Ifrael commanded. 41 And Joshua fmote them from Kadethbarnea, even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibson. 4 And all thefe kings, and their land did Joshua take at one time: because the LORD God of Ifrael fought for Ifrael. 43 And Joshua returned, and all Ifrael with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. CHAP. XI. 1 Divers kings overcome at the waters of Merom. 10 Hazor taken and burnt. And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard thofe things, that hefent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron; and to the king of Achthaph. 2 And to the kings were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains, fouth of Cinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor, on the weft; 3 And to the Canaanite on the eaft, and on the weft, and to the Amorite and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebufite in the mountains, and to the Hivite ander Hermon, in the land of Mizpeh. 4 And they went out, they and all their hotts with them, much people, even asthe fand that is upon the fea thore in multitude, with horfes and chariots very many, 5 And when all thefe kings were met together, they came and pitched together at waters of Merom, to fight againit Ifrael. 6 And the LORD faid unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all Hain before Ifrael: thou fhalt hough their horfes, and burn their chariots with fire. 7 So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom fuddenly, and they fell upon them. 8 And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Ifrael, who fmote them, and chafed them unto great Zidon, and unto Mifrephoth-maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh, eaft-ward, and they fmote them, until they left them none remaining. 9 And Jofhua did unto them as the LORD bade him; he hughed their horfes, and burnt their chariots with fire. TO And Joshua at that time turned back and took Hazor, and fmote the king thereof with the fword: for Hazor before time w as the head of all thofe kingdoms. 11 And they fmote all the fouls that were therein with the edge of the fword, utterly deftroying ebem: there was not any left to breathe; and he burnt Hazor with fire. made by Joshua. 12 And all the cities of thofe kings, and all the kings of them did Joftmua take, and fmote them with the edge of the fword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Mofes the fervant of the LORD commanded. 13 But as for the cities that ftood ftill in their ftrength, Ifrael burned none of them, fave Hazor only that did Jofhua burn. 14 And all the fpoil of thefe cities, and the cattle, the children of Ifrael took for a prey unto themselves: but every man they fmote with the edge of the (word,until they had deftroyed them, neither left they any to breathe. 151 As the LORD commanded Mofes his fervant, fo did Mofes command Jofhua, and fo did Joshua: he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Mofes. 16 So Jofhua took all that land, the hills, and all the fouth country, and all the land of Gothen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Ifrael, and the valley of the fame: 17 Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seit, even unto Baal-gad, in the valley of Lebanon, under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and fmote them and flew them. 18 Joshua made war a long time with all thofe kings. 19 There was not a city that madepeace with the children of Ifrael, fave the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon; all other they took in battle. 20 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they fhould come againft Ifrael in battle, that he might deftroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might deftroy them, as the LORD commanded Moles. 21 And at that time came Jofhua, and Cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Ifrael: Joshua deftroyed them utterly with their cities. 22 There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Ifrael: only in Gaza, in Gath: and in Afhdod, there remained. 23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD faid unto Mofes, and Jofhua gave it for an inheritance unto Ifrael, according to their divi fions, by their tribes, and the land refted from war.
