The Northern Conquest

11And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard these things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,H2985H4428H2674H8085H7971H3103H4428H4068H4428H8110H4428H407 2and to the kings who were from the north, in the mountains, in the plain south of Chinneroth, in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,H4428H6828H2022H6160H5045H3672H8219H5299H1756H3220 3to the Canaanites in the east and in the west, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite in the mountains, and the Hivite below Hermon in the land of Mizpah.H3669H4217H3220H567H2850H6522H2983H2022H2340H2768H776H4709 4So they went out, they and all their armies with them, as many people as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with very many horses and chariots.H3318H4264H7227H5971H2344H3220H8193H7230H5483H7393H3966H7227 5And when all these kings had met together, they came and camped together at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.H4428H3259H935H2583H3162H4325H4792H3898H3478 6But the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid because of them, for tomorrow about this time I will deliver all of them slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire."H3068H559H3091H3372H6440H4279H6256H5414H2491H6440H3478H6131H5483H8313H4818H784 7So Joshua and all the people of war with him came against them suddenly by the waters of Merom, and they attacked them.H3091H935H5971H4421H4325H4792H6597H5307 8And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who defeated them and chased them to Greater Sidon, to the Brook Misrephoth, and to the Valley of Mizpah eastward; they attacked them until they left none of them remaining.H3068H5414H3027H3478H5221H7291H7227H6721H4956H1237H4708H4217H5221H7604H8300 9So Joshua did to them as the LORD had told him: he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.H3091H6213H3068H559H6131H5483H8313H4818H784 10Joshua turned back at that time and took Hazor, and struck its king with the sword; for Hazor was formerly the head of all those kingdoms.H3091H6256H7725H3920H2674H5221H4428H2719H2674H6440H7218H4467 11And they struck all the people who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was none left breathing. Then he burned Hazor with fire.H5221H5315H6310H2719H2763H3498H5397H8313H2674H784 12So all the cities of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua took and struck with the edge of the sword. He utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded.H5892H4428H4428H3091H3920H5221H6310H2719H2763H4872H5650H3068H6680 13But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, except Hazor only, which Joshua burned.H5892H5975H8510H3478H8313H2108H2674H3091H8313 14And all the spoil of these cities and the livestock, the children of Israel took as booty for themselves; but they struck every man with the edge of the sword until they had destroyed them, and they left none breathing.H7998H5892H929H1121H3478H962H120H5221H6310H2719H8045H7604H5397 15As the LORD had commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone of all that the LORD had commanded Moses.H3068H6680H4872H5650H4872H6680H3091H6213H3091H5493H1697H5493H3068H6680H4872

Summary of Joshua’s Conquests

16Thus Joshua took all this land: the mountain country, all the South, all the land of Goshen, the lowland, and the Jordan plain—the mountains of Israel and its lowlands,H3091H3947H776H2022H5045H776H1657H8219H6160H2022H3478H8219 17from Mount Halak and the ascent to Seir, even as far as Baal Gad in the Valley of Lebanon below Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings, and struck them down and killed them.H2022H2510H5927H8165H1171H1237H3844H2022H2768H4428H3920H5221H4191 18Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.H3091H6213H4421H7227H3117H4428 19There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. All the others they took in battle.H5892H7999H1121H3478H2340H3427H1391H3947H4421 20For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that He might utterly destroy them, and that they might receive no mercy, but that He might destroy them, as the LORD had commanded Moses.H3068H2388H3820H7125H3478H4421H2763H8467H8045H3068H6680H4872 21And at that time Joshua came and cut off the Anakim from the mountains: from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel; Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.H6256H935H3091H3772H6062H2022H2275H1688H6024H2022H3063H2022H3478H3091H2763H5892 22None of the Anakim were left in the land of the children of Israel; they remained only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod.H6062H3498H776H1121H3478H5804H1661H795H7604 23So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD had said to Moses; and Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Then the land rested from war.H3091H3947H776H3068H1696H4872H3091H5414H5159H3478H4256H7626H776H8252H4421
