Berean Standard Bible
And
it
came
to
pass,
when Jabin king of Hazor had
heard those
things, that
he sent to Jobab king of Madon ,
and
to the king
of Shimron ,
and to
the
king
of
Achshaph ,
Now
when Jabin king of Hazor heard about
these
things, he sent word
to Jobab king of Madon ;
to the kings
of Shimron and Achshaph ;
And
to the kings that
were
on
the north of
the mountains, and
of
the plains
south of Chinneroth
, and
in the valley
, and in the
borders
of
Dor on
the west ,
to the kings of
the north in
the mountains, in
the Arabah
south of Chinnereth
, in the foothills
, and in Naphoth-
dor to
the west ;
And
to the Canaanite
on
the east and on
the
west ,
and
to the Amorite
, and
the
Hittite
, and
the
Perizzite
, and the
Jebusite
in the mountains,
and to the Hivite
under
Hermon in the land of Mizpeh
.
to the Canaanites
in
the east and west ;
to the Amorites
, Hittites
, Perizzites
, and Jebusites
in the hill
country;
and to the Hivites
at
the
foot
of
Hermon in the land of Mizpah
.
And
they
went
out ,
they
and
all their hosts
with
them,
much
people
, even
as the sand that
is
upon
the sea
shore
in
multitude
, with horses and chariots very
many
.
So
these
kings
came
out with
all their armies
, a
multitude
as numerous
as
the sand on
the seashore
, along
with a
great
number
of
horses and chariots.
And
when
all these kings were
met
together,
they
came
and pitched
together
at the waters of Merom ,
to fight against Israel.
All these kings joined
forces
and encamped
at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
And
the LORD said unto
Joshua, Be
not afraid because
of them :
for to
morrow
about
this time will
I deliver them
up
all slain before Israel :
thou
shalt
hough
their horses ,
and burn their chariots with
fire
.
Then
the LORD said to
Joshua, “Do
not be
afraid of them ,
for by
this time tomorrow
I will
deliver all of
them
slain before Israel .
You
are
to
hamstring
their horses and burn up
their chariots. ”
So Joshua
came,
and
all
the
people
of
war
with
him,
against
them
by the waters of Merom suddenly;
and they
fell
upon them .
So by the waters of Merom ,
Joshua
and his
whole
army
came
upon them suddenly
and
attacked
them,
And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote
them ,
and chased
them unto
great
Zidon,
and unto
Misrephothmaim
, and unto
the valley of Mizpeh eastward;
and
they smote
them, until
they
left
them
none
remaining
.
and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who struck
them down
and pursued
them all
the
way
to
Greater
Sidon
and Misrephoth-maim
, and eastward
as
far
as
the Valley of Mizpeh .
They struck
them down
, leaving
no
survivors
.
And
Joshua did
unto
them as the LORD bade
him :
he houghed
their horses ,
and burnt
their chariots with
fire
.
Joshua treated
them as the LORD had
told
him ;
he hamstrung
their horses and burned
up
their chariots.
And
Joshua
at that time turned back ,
and took
Hazor ,
and smote
the
king thereof
with
the sword :
for
Hazor beforetime
was the head of all those
kingdoms.
At that time Joshua
turned back and captured
Hazor and put
its
king to
the sword ,
because
Hazor was formerly
the head of all these
kingdoms.
And
they
smote
all
the souls
that
were
therein
with
the
edge
of
the sword, utterly
destroying
them :
there
was
not
any
left
to breathe:
and he
burnt
Hazor with
fire
.
The Israelites
put
everyone
in
Hazor
to
the sword, devoting
them to destruction.
Nothing
that
breathed
remained,
and Joshua
burned
down
Hazor itself
.
And
all the
cities
of
those
kings ,
and all
the
kings
of
them,
did
Joshua
take,
and smote
them with
the
edge
of
the sword ,
and
he utterly
destroyed
them, as Moses the servant of
the
LORD
commanded.
Joshua
captured
all these
kings and their
cities
and put
them to
the sword .
He devoted
them to
destruction
, as Moses the LORD’s
servant had
commanded.
But
as
for
the cities that
stood
still
in
their strength,
Israel
burned
none
of
them
, save
Hazor only;
that
did
Joshua burn
.
Yet
Israel
did
not
burn
any
of
the cities built
on
their mounds
, except
Hazor ,
which
Joshua burned
.
And
all the spoil
of these cities, and
the
cattle,
the
children
of
Israel
took
for
a
prey
unto
themselves;
but every
man
they smote
with
the edge
of
the sword ,
until they had destroyed them, neither
left
they
any
to
breathe
.
The
Israelites
took
for
themselves
all the plunder
and
livestock
of these cities, but they put
all
the people
to
the sword until they had completely
destroyed them, not
sparing
anyone
who
breathed
.
As the LORD commanded Moses
his servant, so did
Moses command
Joshua ,
and
so
did
Joshua ;
he
left
nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
As the LORD had
commanded His servant Moses
, so Moses commanded
Joshua .
That
is
what
Joshua did,
leaving
nothing undone of all that the LORD had
commanded Moses.
So Joshua took all
that
land,
the hills
, and
all the south
country
, and
all the land of Goshen, and
the valley
, and
the plain
, and the mountain
of Israel ,
and the
valley
of
the
same;
So Joshua took this
entire
region:
the hill
country
, all the Negev
, all the land of Goshen, the western
foothills
, the Arabah
, and the mountains
of Israel and their
foothills,
Even
from the
mount Halak, that
goeth
up
to
Seir, even
unto
Baalgad
in the valley of Lebanon under
mount Hermon :
and
all their kings he
took,
and smote
them, and
slew
them.
from Mount Halak, which
rises
toward
Seir, as
far
as
Baal-gad
in the Valley of Lebanon at
the
foot
of
Mount Hermon .
He
captured
all their kings and struck
them down
, putting
them to
death
.
Joshua made
war a long time with
all
those
kings
.
Joshua waged
war against
all
these
kings
for
a long period
of
time.
There
was
not
a
city that
made peace with the children
of
Israel,
save
the Hivites the
inhabitants
of
Gibeon :
all other
they
took
in battle.
No
city made peace with the Israelites
except
the Hivites living
in
Gibeon ;
all others
were
taken
in battle.
For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts ,
that
they
should
come
against
Israel in battle, that
he
might
destroy
them
utterly,
and
that they might
have
no favor,
but
that
he
might
destroy
them
, as the LORD commanded Moses.
For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts to
engage
Israel in battle, so
that they would
be
set
apart
for
destruction
and
would
receive
no mercy
, being
annihilated
as the LORD had
commanded Moses.
And
at that time came
Joshua ,
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 Israel :
Joshua destroyed
them utterly
with their cities.
At that time Joshua proceeded
to
eliminate
the Anakim
from the hill
country
of
Hebron, Debir, and
Anab, and from all the hill
country
of Judah and of Israel .
Joshua devoted
them to
destruction,
along
with their cities.
There
was
none
of
the
Anakims
left in the land of the children
of
Israel:
only in Gaza, in
Gath, and in
Ashdod ,
there
remained
.
No
Anakim
were
left in the land of the Israelites;
only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod did
any
survive
.
So Joshua took the whole
land, according
to
all that the LORD said
unto
Moses ;
and Joshua gave it for
an inheritance unto
Israel according to their
divisions
by
their tribes. And
the land rested
from war.
So Joshua took the entire
land, in
keeping
with
all that the LORD had
spoken
to
Moses .
And Joshua gave it as
an inheritance to
Israel according to the
allotments
to
their tribes. Then
the land had
rest
from war.
