Joshua 1:1--10:43

1:1
Now after
<0310>
the death
<04194>
of Moses
<04872>
the servant
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>
it came to pass, that the LORD
<03068>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>
the son
<01121>
of Nun
<05126>_,
Moses
<04872>_'
minister
<08334> (8764)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
1:2
Moses
<04872>
my servant
<05650>
is dead
<04191> (8804)_;
now therefore arise
<06965> (8798)_,
go over
<05674> (8798)
this Jordan
<03383>_,
thou, and all this people
<05971>_,
unto the land
<0776>
which I do give
<05414> (8802)
to them, [even] to the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
1:3
Every place
<04725>
that the sole
<03709>
of your foot
<07272>
shall tread upon
<01869> (8799)_,
that have I given
<05414> (8804)
unto you, as I said
<01696> (8765)
unto Moses
<04872>_.
1:4
From the wilderness
<04057>
and this Lebanon
<03844>
even unto the great
<01419>
river
<05104>_,
the river
<05104>
Euphrates
<06578>_,
all the land
<0776>
of the Hittites
<02850>_,
and unto the great
<01419>
sea
<03220>
toward the going down
<03996>
of the sun
<08121>_,
shall be your coast
<01366>_.
1:5
There shall not any man
<0376>
be able to stand
<03320> (8691)
before
<06440>
thee all the days
<03117>
of thy life
<02416>_:
as I was with Moses
<04872>_,
[so] I will be with thee: I will not fail
<07503> (8686)
thee, nor forsake
<05800> (8799)
thee.
1:6
Be strong
<02388> (8798)
and of a good courage
<0553> (8798)_:
for unto this people
<05971>
shalt thou divide for an inheritance
<05157> (8686)
the land
<0776>_,
which I sware
<07650> (8738)
unto their fathers
<01>
to give
<05414> (8800)
them. {unto this...: or, thou shalt cause this people to inherit the land, etc}
1:7
Only be thou strong
<02388> (8798)
and very
<03966>
courageous
<0553> (8798)_,
that thou mayest observe
<08104> (8800)
to do
<06213> (8800)
according to all the law
<08451>_,
which Moses
<04872>
my servant
<05650>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee: turn
<05493> (8799)
not from it [to] the right hand
<03225>
or [to] the left
<08040>_,
that thou mayest prosper
<07919> (8686)
whithersoever thou goest
<03212> (8799)_.
{prosper: or, do wisely}
1:8
This book
<05612>
of the law
<08451>
shall not depart
<04185> (8799)
out of thy mouth
<06310>_;
but thou shalt meditate
<01897> (8804)
therein day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_,
that thou mayest observe
<08104> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
according to all that is written
<03789> (8803)
therein: for then thou shalt make
<06743> (0)
thy way
<01870>
prosperous
<06743> (8686)_,
and then thou shalt have good success
<07919> (8686)_.
{have...: or, do wisely}
1:9
Have not I commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee? Be strong
<02388> (8798)
and of a good courage
<0553> (8798)_;
be not afraid
<06206> (8799)_,
neither be thou dismayed
<02865> (8735)_:
for the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
[is] with thee whithersoever thou goest
<03212> (8799)_.
1:10
Then Joshua
<03091>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
the officers
<07860> (8802)
of the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
1:11
Pass
<05674> (8798)
through
<07130>
the host
<04264>_,
and command
<06680> (8761)
the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Prepare
<03559> (8685)
you victuals
<06720>_;
for within three
<07969>
days
<03117>
ye shall pass over
<05674> (8802)
this Jordan
<03383>_,
to go in
<0935> (8800)
to possess
<03423> (8800)
the land
<0776>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
you to possess
<03423> (8800)
it.
1:12
And to the Reubenites
<07206>_,
and to the Gadites
<01425>_,
and to half
<02677>
the tribe
<07626>
of Manasseh
<04519>_,
spake
<0559> (8804)
Joshua
<03091>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
1:13
Remember
<02142> (8800)
the word
<01697>
which Moses
<04872>
the servant
<05650>
of the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
hath given you rest
<05117> (8688)_,
and hath given
<05414> (8804)
you this land
<0776>_.
1:14
Your wives
<0802>_,
your little ones
<02945>_,
and your cattle
<04735>_,
shall remain
<03427> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
which Moses
<04872>
gave
<05414> (8804)
you on this side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_;
but ye shall pass
<05674> (8799)
before
<06440>
your brethren
<0251>
armed
<02571>_,
all the mighty
<01368>
men of valour
<02428>_,
and help
<05826> (8804)
them; {armed: Heb. marshalled by five}
1:15
Until the LORD
<03068>
have given
<05117> (0)
your brethren
<0251>
rest
<05117> (8686)_,
as [he hath given] you, and they also have possessed
<03423> (8804)
the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
them: then ye shall return
<07725> (8804)
unto the land
<0776>
of your possession
<03425>_,
and enjoy
<03423> (8804)
it, which Moses
<04872>
the LORD'S
<03068>
servant
<05650>
gave
<05414> (8804)
you on this side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>
toward the sunrising
<04217> <08121>_.
1:16
And they answered
<06030> (8799)
Joshua
<03091>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
All that thou commandest
<06680> (8765)
us we will do
<06213> (8799)_,
and whithersoever
<0834>
thou sendest
<07971> (8799)
us, we will go
<03212> (8799)_.
1:17
According as we hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto Moses
<04872>
in all things, so will we hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto thee: only the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
be with thee, as he was with Moses
<04872>_.
1:18
Whosoever
<0376>
[he be] that doth rebel
<04784> (8686)
against thy commandment
<06310>_,
and will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto thy words
<01697>
in all that thou commandest
<06680> (8762)
him, he shall be put to death
<04191> (8714)_:
only be strong
<02388> (8798)
and of a good courage
<0553> (8798)_.
2:1
And Joshua
<03091>
the son
<01121>
of Nun
<05126>
sent
<07971> (8799)
out of Shittim
<07851>
two
<08147>
men
<0582>
to spy
<07270> (8764)
secretly
<02791>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)
view
<07200> (8798)
the land
<0776>_,
even Jericho
<03405>_.
And they went
<03212> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
into an harlot's
<02181> (8802)
house
<0802> <01004>_,
named
<08034>
Rahab
<07343>_,
and lodged
<07901> (8799)
there. {sent: or, had sent} {lodged: Heb. lay}
2:2
And it was told
<0559> (8735)
the king
<04428>
of Jericho
<03405>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, there came
<0935> (8804)
men
<0582>
in hither to night
<03915>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
to search out
<02658> (8800)
the country
<0776>_.
2:3
And the king
<04428>
of Jericho
<03405>
sent
<07971> (8799)
unto Rahab
<07343>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Bring forth
<03318> (8685)
the men
<0582>
that are come
<0935> (8802)
to thee, which are entered
<0935> (8804)
into thine house
<01004>_:
for they be come
<0935> (8804)
to search out
<02658> (8800)
all the country
<0776>_.
2:4
And the woman
<0802>
took
<03947> (8799)
the two
<08147>
men
<0582>_,
and hid
<06845> (8799)
them, and said
<0559> (8799)
thus, There came
<0935> (8804)
men
<0582>
unto me, but I wist
<03045> (8804)
not whence
<0370>
they [were]:
2:5
And it came to pass [about the time] of shutting
<05462> (8800)
of the gate
<08179>_,
when it was dark
<02822>_,
that the men
<0582>
went out
<03318> (8804)_:
whither the men
<0582>
went
<01980> (8804)
I wot
<03045> (8804)
not: pursue
<07291> (8798)
after
<0310>
them quickly
<04118>_;
for ye shall overtake
<05381> (8686)
them.
2:6
But she had brought them up
<05927> (8689)
to the roof
<01406>
of the house, and hid
<02934> (8799)
them with the stalks
<06086>
of flax
<06593>_,
which she had laid in order
<06186> (8803)
upon the roof
<01406>_.
2:7
And the men
<0582>
pursued
<07291> (8804)
after
<0310>
them the way
<01870>
to Jordan
<03383>
unto the fords
<04569>_:
and as soon as they which pursued
<07291> (8802)
after
<0310>
them were gone out
<03318> (8804)_,
they shut
<05462> (8804)
the gate
<08179>_.
2:8
And before they were laid down
<07901> (8799)_,
she came up
<05927> (8804)
unto them upon the roof
<01406>_;
2:9
And she said
<0559> (8799)
unto the men
<0582>_,
I know
<03045> (8804)
that the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
you the land
<0776>_,
and that your terror
<0367>
is fallen
<05307> (8804)
upon us, and that all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the land
<0776>
faint
<04127> (8738)
because
<06440>
of you. {faint: Heb. melt}
2:10
For we have heard
<08085> (8804)
how the LORD
<03068>
dried up
<03001> (8689)
the water
<04325>
of the Red
<05488>
sea
<03220>
for you
<06440>_,
when ye came out
<03318> (8800)
of Egypt
<04714>_;
and what ye did
<06213> (8804)
unto the two
<08147>
kings
<04428>
of the Amorites
<0567>_,
that [were] on the other side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_,
Sihon
<05511>
and Og
<05747>_,
whom ye utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)_.
2:11
And as soon as we had heard
<08085> (8799)
[these things], our hearts
<03824>
did melt
<04549> (8735)_,
neither did there remain
<06965> (8804)
any more courage
<07307>
in any man
<0376>_,
because
<06440>
of you: for the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
he [is] God
<0430>
in heaven
<08064>
above
<04605>_,
and in earth
<0776>
beneath. {did there...: Heb. rose up}
2:12
Now therefore, I pray you, swear
<07650> (8734)
unto me by the LORD
<03068>_,
since
<03588>
I have shewed
<06213> (8804)
you kindness
<02617>_,
that ye will also shew
<06213> (8804)
kindness
<02617>
unto my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_,
and give
<05414> (8804)
me a true
<0571>
token
<0226>_:
2:13
And [that] ye will save alive
<02421> (8689)
my father
<01>_,
and my mother
<0517>_,
and my brethren
<0251>_,
and my sisters
<0269>_,
and all that they have, and deliver
<05337> (8689)
our lives
<05315>
from death
<04194>_.
2:14
And the men
<0582>
answered
<0559> (8799)
her, Our life
<05315>
for yours
<04191> (8800)_,
if ye utter
<05046> (8686)
not this our business
<01697>_.
And it shall be, when the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8800)
us the land
<0776>_,
that we will deal
<06213> (8804)
kindly
<02617>
and truly
<0571>
with thee. {for...: Heb. instead of you to die}
2:15
Then she let them down
<03381> (8686)
by a cord
<02256>
through
<01157>
the window
<02474>_:
for her house
<01004>
[was] upon the town
<07023>
wall
<02346>_,
and she dwelt
<03427> (8802)
upon the wall
<02346>_.
2:16
And she said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Get
<03212> (8798)
you to the mountain
<02022>_,
lest the pursuers
<07291> (8802)
meet
<06293> (8799)
you; and hide
<02247> (8738)
yourselves there three
<07969>
days
<03117>_,
until the pursuers
<07291> (8802)
be returned
<07725> (8800)_:
and afterward
<0310>
may ye go
<03212> (8799)
your way
<01870>_.
2:17
And the men
<0582>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, We [will be] blameless
<05355>
of this thine oath
<07621>
which thou hast made us swear
<07650> (8689)_.
2:18
Behold, [when] we come
<0935> (8802)
into the land
<0776>_,
thou shalt bind
<07194> (8799)
this line
<08615>
of scarlet
<08144>
thread
<02339>
in the window
<02474>
which thou didst let us down by
<03381> (8689)_:
and thou shalt bring
<0622> (8799)
thy father
<01>_,
and thy mother
<0517>_,
and thy brethren
<0251>_,
and all thy father's
<01>
household
<01004>_,
home
<01004>
unto thee. {bring: Heb. gather}
2:19
And it shall be, [that] whosoever
<0834>
shall go out
<03318> (8799)
of the doors
<01817>
of thy house
<01004>
into the street
<02351>_,
his blood
<01818>
[shall be] upon his head
<07218>_,
and we [will be] guiltless
<05355>_:
and whosoever shall be with thee in the house
<01004>_,
his blood
<01818>
[shall be] on our head
<07218>_,
if [any] hand
<03027>
be upon him.
2:20
And if thou utter
<05046> (8686)
this our business
<01697>_,
then we will be quit
<05355>
of thine oath
<07621>
which thou hast made us to swear
<07650> (8689)_.
2:21
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
According unto your words
<01697>_,
so [be] it. And she sent them away
<07971> (8762)_,
and they departed
<03212> (8799)_:
and she bound
<07194> (8799)
the scarlet
<08144>
line
<08615>
in the window
<02474>_.
2:22
And they went
<03212> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
unto the mountain
<02022>_,
and abode
<03427> (8799)
there three
<07969>
days
<03117>_,
until the pursuers
<07291> (8802)
were returned
<07725> (8804)_:
and the pursuers
<07291> (8802)
sought
<01245> (8762)
[them] throughout all the way
<01870>_,
but found
<04672> (8804)
[them] not.
2:23
So the two
<08147>
men
<0582>
returned
<07725> (8799)_,
and descended
<03381> (8799)
from the mountain
<02022>_,
and passed over
<05674> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Joshua
<03091>
the son
<01121>
of Nun
<05126>_,
and told
<05608> (8762)
him all [things] that befell
<04672> (8802)
them:
2:24
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Truly
<03588>
the LORD
<03068>
hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
into our hands
<03027>
all the land
<0776>_;
for even all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the country
<0776>
do faint
<04127> (8738)
because
<06440>
of us. {faint: Heb. melt}
3:1
And Joshua
<03091>
rose early
<07925> (8686)
in the morning
<01242>_;
and they removed
<05265> (8799)
from Shittim
<07851>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Jordan
<03383>_,
he and all the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and lodged
<03885> (8799)
there before they passed over
<05674> (8799)_.
3:2
And it came to pass after
<07097>
three
<07969>
days
<03117>_,
that the officers
<07860> (8802)
went
<05674> (8799)
through
<07130>
the host
<04264>_;
3:3
And they commanded
<06680> (8762)
the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
When ye see
<07200> (8800)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
and the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>
bearing
<05375> (8802)
it, then ye shall remove
<05265> (8799)
from your place
<04725>_,
and go
<01980> (8804)
after
<0310>
it.
3:4
Yet there shall be a space
<07350>
between you and it, about two thousand
<0505>
cubits
<0520>
by measure
<04060>_:
come not near
<07126> (8799)
unto it, that ye may know
<03045> (8799)
the way
<01870>
by which ye must go
<03212> (8799)_:
for ye have not passed
<05674> (8804)
[this] way
<01870>
heretofore
<08543> <08032>_.
{heretofore: Heb. since yesterday, and the third day}
3:5
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the people
<05971>_,
Sanctify
<06942> (8690)
yourselves: for to morrow
<04279>
the LORD
<03068>
will do
<06213> (8799)
wonders
<06381> (8737)
among
<07130>
you.
3:6
And Joshua
<03091>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto the priests
<03548>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take up
<05375> (8798)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>_,
and pass over
<05674> (8798)
before
<06440>
the people
<05971>_.
And they took up
<05375> (8799)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
before
<06440>
the people
<05971>_.
3:7
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
This day
<03117>
will I begin
<02490> (8686)
to magnify
<01431> (8763)
thee in the sight
<05869>
of all Israel
<03478>_,
that they may know
<03045> (8799)
that, as I was with Moses
<04872>_,
[so] I will be with thee.
3:8
And thou shalt command
<06680> (8762)
the priests
<03548>
that bear
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
When ye are come
<0935> (8800)
to the brink
<07097>
of the water
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
ye shall stand still
<05975> (8799)
in Jordan
<03383>_.
3:9
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Come hither
<05066> (8798)_,
and hear
<08085> (8798)
the words
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_.
3:10
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Hereby ye shall know
<03045> (8799)
that the living
<02416>
God
<0410>
[is] among
<07130>
you, and [that] he will without fail
<03423> (8687)
drive out
<03423> (8686)
from before
<06440>
you the Canaanites
<03669>_,
and the Hittites
<02850>_,
and the Hivites
<02340>_,
and the Perizzites
<06522>_,
and the Girgashites
<01622>_,
and the Amorites
<0567>_,
and the Jebusites
<02983>_.
3:11
Behold, the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the Lord
<0113>
of all the earth
<0776>
passeth over
<05674> (8802)
before
<06440>
you into Jordan
<03383>_.
3:12
Now therefore take
<03947> (8798)
you twelve
<08147> <06240>
men
<0376>
out of the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_,
out of every
<0259>
tribe
<07626>
a man
<0376>_.
3:13
And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles
<03709>
of the feet
<07272>
of the priests
<03548>
that bear
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
the Lord
<0113>
of all the earth
<0776>_,
shall rest
<05117> (8800)
in the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
[that] the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>
shall be cut off
<03772> (8735)
[from] the waters
<04325>
that come down
<03381> (8802)
from above
<04605>_;
and they shall stand
<05975> (8799)
upon an
<0259>
heap
<05067>_.
3:14
And it came to pass, when the people
<05971>
removed
<05265> (8800)
from their tents
<0168>_,
to pass over
<05674> (8800)
Jordan
<03383>_,
and the priests
<03548>
bearing
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
before
<06440>
the people
<05971>_;
3:15
And as they that bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
were come
<0935> (8800)
unto Jordan
<03383>_,
and the feet
<07272>
of the priests
<03548>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
were dipped
<02881> (8738)
in the brim
<07097>
of the water
<04325>_,
(for Jordan
<03383>
overfloweth
<04390> (8804)
all his banks
<01415>
all the time
<03117>
of harvest
<07105>,)
3:16
That the waters
<04325>
which came down
<03381> (8802)
from above
<04605>
stood
<05975> (8799)
[and] rose up
<06965> (8804)
upon an
<0259>
heap
<05067>
very
<03966>
far
<07368> (8687)
from the city
<05892>
Adam
<0121>_,
that [is] beside
<06654>
Zaretan
<06891>_:
and those that came down
<03381> (8802)
toward the sea
<03220>
of the plain
<06160>_,
[even] the salt
<04417>
sea
<03220>_,
failed
<08552> (8804)_,
[and] were cut off
<03772> (8738)_:
and the people
<05971>
passed over
<05674> (8804)
right against Jericho
<03405>_.
3:17
And the priests
<03548>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
stood
<05975> (8799)
firm
<03559> (8687)
on dry ground
<02724>
in the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
and all the Israelites
<03478>
passed over
<05674> (8802)
on dry ground
<02724>_,
until all the people
<01471>
were passed
<05674> (0)
clean
<08552> (8804)
over
<05674> (8800)
Jordan
<03383>_.
4:1
And it came to pass, when all the people
<01471>
were clean
<08552> (8804)
passed over
<05674> (8800)
Jordan
<03383>_,
that the LORD
<03068>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
4:2
Take
<03947> (8798)
you twelve
<08147> <06240>
men
<0582>
out of the people
<05971>_,
out of every
<0259>
tribe
<07626>
a man
<0376>_,
4:3
And command
<06680> (8761)
ye them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take
<05375> (8798)
you hence out of the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
out of the place where the priests
<03548>_'
feet
<07272>
stood
<04673>
firm
<03559> (8687)_,
twelve
<08147> <06240>
stones
<068>_,
and ye shall carry them over
<05674> (8689)
with you, and leave
<03240> (8689)
them in the lodging place
<04411>_,
where ye shall lodge
<03885> (8799)
this night
<03915>_.
4:4
Then Joshua
<03091>
called
<07121> (8799)
the twelve
<08147> <06240>
men
<0376>_,
whom he had prepared
<03559> (8689)
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
out of every
<0259>
tribe
<07626>
a man
<0376>_:
4:5
And Joshua
<03091>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Pass over
<05674> (8798)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
into the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
and take ye up
<07311> (8685)
every
<0259>
man
<0376>
of you a stone
<068>
upon his shoulder
<07926>_,
according unto the number
<04557>
of the tribes
<07626>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_:
4:6
That this may be a sign
<0226>
among
<07130>
you, [that] when your children
<01121>
ask
<07592> (8799)
[their fathers] in time to come
<04279>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
What [mean] ye by these stones
<068>_?
{in time...: Heb. to morrow}
4:7
Then ye shall answer
<0559> (8804)
them, That the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>
were cut off
<03772> (8738)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
when it passed over
<05674> (8800)
Jordan
<03383>_,
the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>
were cut off
<03772> (8738)_:
and these stones
<068>
shall be for a memorial
<02146>
unto the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
4:8
And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
did
<06213> (8799)
so as Joshua
<03091>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_,
and took up
<05375> (8799)
twelve
<08147> <06240>
stones
<068>
out of the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
as the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
according to the number
<04557>
of the tribes
<07626>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and carried them over
<05674> (8686)
with them unto the place where they lodged
<04411>_,
and laid them down
<03240> (8686)
there.
4:9
And Joshua
<03091>
set up
<06965> (8689)
twelve
<08147> <06240>
stones
<068>
in the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
in the place where the feet
<07272>
of the priests
<03548>
which bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
stood
<04673>_:
and they are there unto this day
<03117>_.
4:10
For the priests
<03548>
which bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
stood
<05975> (8802)
in the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
until every thing
<01697>
was finished
<08552> (8800)
that the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
Joshua
<03091>
to speak
<01696> (8763)
unto the people
<05971>_,
according to all that Moses
<04872>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
Joshua
<03091>_:
and the people
<05971>
hasted
<04116> (8762)
and passed over
<05674> (8799)_.
4:11
And it came to pass, when all the people
<05971>
were clean
<08552> (8804)
passed over
<05674> (8800)_,
that the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>
passed over
<05674> (8799)_,
and the priests
<03548>_,
in the presence
<06440>
of the people
<05971>_.
4:12
And the children
<01121>
of Reuben
<07205>_,
and the children
<01121>
of Gad
<01410>_,
and half
<02677>
the tribe
<07626>
of Manasseh
<04519>_,
passed over
<05674> (8799)
armed
<02571>
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
as Moses
<04872>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto them:
4:13
About forty
<0705>
thousand
<0505>
prepared
<02502> (8803)
for war
<06635>
passed over
<05674> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
unto battle
<04421>_,
to the plains
<06160>
of Jericho
<03405>_.
{prepared: or, ready armed}
4:14
On that day
<03117>
the LORD
<03068>
magnified
<01431> (8765)
Joshua
<03091>
in the sight
<05869>
of all Israel
<03478>_;
and they feared
<03372> (8799)
him, as they feared
<03372> (8804)
Moses
<04872>_,
all the days
<03117>
of his life
<02416>_.
4:15
And the LORD
<03068>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
4:16
Command
<06680> (8761)
the priests
<03548>
that bear
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the testimony
<05715>_,
that they come up
<05927> (8799)
out of Jordan
<03383>_.
4:17
Joshua
<03091>
therefore commanded
<06680> (8762)
the priests
<03548>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Come ye up
<05927> (8798)
out of Jordan
<03383>_.
4:18
And it came to pass, when the priests
<03548>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
were come up
<05927> (8800)
out of the midst
<08432>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
[and] the soles
<03709>
of the priests
<03548>_'
feet
<07272>
were lifted up
<05423> (8738)
unto the dry land
<02724>_,
that the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>
returned
<07725> (8799)
unto their place
<04725>_,
and flowed
<03212> (8799)
over all his banks
<01415>_,
as
<08543>
[they did] before
<08032>_.
{lifted...: Heb. plucked up} {flowed: Heb. went}
4:19
And the people
<05971>
came up
<05927> (8804)
out of Jordan
<03383>
on the tenth
<06218>
[day] of the first
<07223>
month
<02320>_,
and encamped
<02583> (8799)
in Gilgal
<01537>_,
in the east
<04217>
border
<07097>
of Jericho
<03405>_.
4:20
And those twelve
<08147> <06240>
stones
<068>_,
which they took out
<03947> (8804)
of Jordan
<03383>_,
did Joshua
<03091>
pitch
<06965> (8689)
in Gilgal
<01537>_.
4:21
And he spake
<0559> (8799)
unto the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
When your children
<01121>
shall ask
<07592> (8799)
their fathers
<01>
in time to come
<04279>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
What [mean] these stones
<068>_?
{in time...: Heb. to morrow}
4:22
Then ye shall let your children
<01121>
know
<03045> (8689)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Israel
<03478>
came over
<05674> (8804)
this Jordan
<03383>
on dry land
<03004>_.
4:23
For the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
dried up
<03001> (8689)
the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>
from before
<06440>
you, until ye were passed over
<05674> (8800)_,
as the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
did
<06213> (8804)
to the Red
<05488>
sea
<03220>_,
which he dried up
<03001> (8689)
from before
<06440>
us, until we were gone over
<05674> (8800)_:
4:24
That all the people
<05971>
of the earth
<0776>
might know
<03045> (8800)
the hand
<03027>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
that it [is] mighty
<02389>_:
that ye might fear
<03372> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
for ever
<03117>_.
{for ever: Heb. all days}
5:1
And it came to pass, when all the kings
<04428>
of the Amorites
<0567>_,
which [were] on the side
<05676>
of Jordan
<03383>
westward
<03220>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of the Canaanites
<03669>_,
which [were] by the sea
<03220>_,
heard
<08085> (8800)
that the LORD
<03068>
had dried up
<03001> (8689)
the waters
<04325>
of Jordan
<03383>
from before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
until we were passed over
<05674> (8800)_,
that their heart
<03824>
melted
<04549> (8735)_,
neither was there spirit
<07307>
in them any more, because
<06440>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
5:2
At that time
<06256>
the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Make
<06213> (8798)
thee sharp
<06697>
knives
<02719>_,
and circumcise
<04135> (8798)
again
<07725> (8798)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
the second time
<08145>_.
{sharp...: or, knives of flints}
5:3
And Joshua
<03091>
made
<06213> (8799)
him sharp
<06697>
knives
<02719>_,
and circumcised
<04135> (8799)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
at the hill
<01389>
of the foreskins
<06190>_.
{sharp...: or, knives of flints} {the hill...: or, Gibeah-haaraloth}
5:4
And this [is] the cause
<01697>
why Joshua
<03091>
did circumcise
<04135> (8804)_:
All the people
<05971>
that came out
<03318> (8802)
of Egypt
<04714>_,
[that were] males
<02145>_,
[even] all the men
<0582>
of war
<04421>_,
died
<04191> (8804)
in the wilderness
<04057>
by the way
<01870>_,
after they came out
<03318> (8800)
of Egypt
<04714>_.
5:5
Now
<03588>
all the people
<05971>
that came out
<03318> (8802)
were circumcised
<04135> (8803)_:
but all the people
<05971>
[that were] born
<03209>
in the wilderness
<04057>
by the way
<01870>
as they came forth
<03318> (8800)
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
[them] they had not circumcised
<04135> (8804)_.
5:6
For the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
walked
<01980> (8804)
forty
<0705>
years
<08141>
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
till all the people
<01471>
[that were] men
<0582>
of war
<04421>_,
which came out
<03318> (8802)
of Egypt
<04714>_,
were consumed
<08552> (8800)_,
because they obeyed
<08085> (8804)
not the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
unto whom the LORD
<03068>
sware
<07650> (8738)
that he would not shew
<07200> (8687)
them the land
<0776>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
sware
<07650> (8738)
unto their fathers
<01>
that he would give
<05414> (8800)
us, a land
<0776>
that floweth
<02100> (8802)
with milk
<02461>
and honey
<01706>_.
5:7
And their children
<01121>_,
[whom] he raised up
<06965> (8689)
in their stead, them Joshua
<03091>
circumcised
<04135> (8804)_:
for they were uncircumcised
<06189>_,
because they had not circumcised
<04135> (8804)
them by the way
<01870>_.
5:8
And it came to pass, when they had done
<08552> (8804)
circumcising
<04135> (8736)
all the people
<01471>_,
that they abode
<03427> (8799)
in their places in the camp
<04264>_,
till they were whole
<02421> (8800)_.
{they had...: Heb. the people had made an end to be circumcised}
5:9
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
This day
<03117>
have I rolled away
<01556> (8804)
the reproach
<02781>
of Egypt
<04714>
from off you. Wherefore the name
<08034>
of the place
<04725>
is called
<07121> (8799)
Gilgal
<01537>
unto this day
<03117>_.
{Gilgal: that is Rolling}
5:10
And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
encamped
<02583> (8799)
in Gilgal
<01537>_,
and kept
<06213> (8799)
the passover
<06453>
on the fourteenth
<0702> <06240>
day
<03117>
of the month
<02320>
at even
<06153>
in the plains
<06160>
of Jericho
<03405>_.
5:11
And they did eat
<0398> (8799)
of the old corn
<05669>
of the land
<0776>
on the morrow
<04283>
after the passover
<06453>_,
unleavened cakes
<04682>_,
and parched
<07033> (8803)
[corn] in the selfsame
<06106>
day
<03117>_.
5:12
And the manna
<04478>
ceased
<07673> (8799)
on the morrow
<04283>
after they had eaten
<0398> (8800)
of the old corn
<05669>
of the land
<0776>_;
neither had the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
manna
<04478>
any more; but they did eat
<0398> (8799)
of the fruit
<08393>
of the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>
that year
<08141>_.
5:13
And it came to pass, when Joshua
<03091>
was by Jericho
<03405>_,
that he lifted up
<05375> (8799)
his eyes
<05869>
and looked
<07200> (8799)_,
and, behold, there stood
<05975> (8802)
a man
<0376>
over against him with his sword
<02719>
drawn
<08025> (8803)
in his hand
<03027>_:
and Joshua
<03091>
went
<03212> (8799)
unto him, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, [Art] thou for us, or for our adversaries
<06862>_?
5:14
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Nay; but [as] captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
of the LORD
<03068>
am I now come
<0935> (8804)_.
And Joshua
<03091>
fell
<05307> (8799)
on his face
<06440>
to the earth
<0776>_,
and did worship
<07812> (8691)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, What saith
<01696> (8764)
my lord
<0113>
unto his servant
<05650>_?
{captain: or, prince}
5:15
And the captain
<08269>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
host
<06635>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Loose
<05394> (8798)
thy shoe
<05275>
from off thy foot
<07272>_;
for the place
<04725>
whereon thou standest
<05975> (8802)
[is] holy
<06944>_.
And Joshua
<03091>
did
<06213> (8799)
so.
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>_.
