Joshua 11
11When King Jabin of Hazor heard of this, he sent to King Jobab of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,H2985H4428H2674H8085H7971H3103H4428H4068H4428H8110H4428H4072and to the kings who were in the northern hill country, and in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, and in the lowland, and in Naphoth-dor on the west,H4428H6828H2022H6160H5045H3672H8219H5299H1756H32203to the Canaanites in the east and the west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, and the Jebusites in the hill country, and the Hivites under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.H3669H4217H3220H567H2850H6522H2983H2022H2340H2768H776H47094They came out, with all their troops, a great army, in number like the sand on the seashore, with very many horses and chariots.H3318H4264H7227H5971H2344H3220H8193H7230H5483H7393H3966H72275All these kings joined their forces, and came and camped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.H4428H3259H935H2583H3162H4325H4792H3898H34786And the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will hand over all of them, slain, to Israel; you shall hamstring their horses, and burn their chariots with fire."H3068H559H3091H3372H6440H4279H6256H5414H2491H6440H3478H6131H5483H8313H4818H7847So Joshua came suddenly upon them with all his fighting force, by the waters of Merom, and fell upon them.H3091H935H5971H4421H4325H4792H6597H53078And the LORD handed them over to Israel, who attacked them and chased them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, until they had left no one remaining.H3068H5414H3027H3478H5221H7291H7227H6721H4956H1237H4708H4217H5221H7604H83009And Joshua did to them as the LORD commanded him; he hamstrung their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.H3091H6213H3068H559H6131H5483H8313H4818H78410Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and struck its king down with the sword. Before that time Hazor was the head of all those kingdoms.H3091H6256H7725H3920H2674H5221H4428H2719H2674H6440H7218H446711And they put to the sword all who were in it, utterly destroying them; there was no one left who breathed, and he burned Hazor with fire.H5221H5315H6310H2719H2763H3498H5397H8313H2674H78412And all the towns of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua took, and struck them with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded.H5892H4428H4428H3091H3920H5221H6310H2719H2763H4872H5650H3068H668013But Israel burned none of the towns that stood on mounds except Hazor, which Joshua did burn.H5892H5975H8510H3478H8313H2108H2674H3091H831314All the spoil of these towns, and the livestock, the Israelites took for their booty; but all the people they struck down with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, and they did not leave any who breathed.H7998H5892H929H1121H3478H962H120H5221H6310H2719H8045H7604H539715As the LORD had commanded his servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD had commanded Moses.H3068H6680H4872H5650H4872H6680H3091H6213H3091H5493H1697H5493H3068H6680H487216So Joshua took all that land: the hill country and all the Negeb and all the land of Goshen and the lowland and the Arabah and the hill country of Israel and its lowland,H3091H3947H776H2022H5045H776H1657H8219H6160H2022H3478H821917from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, as far as Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon below Mount Hermon. He took all their kings, struck them down, and put them to death.H2022H2510H5927H8165H1171H1237H3844H2022H2768H4428H3920H5221H419118Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.H3091H6213H4421H7227H3117H442819There was not a town that made peace with the Israelites, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon; all were taken in battle.H5892H7999H1121H3478H2340H3427H1391H3947H442120For it was the LORD's doing to harden their hearts so that they would come against Israel in battle, in order that they might be utterly destroyed, and might receive no mercy, but be exterminated, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.H3068H2388H3820H7125H3478H4421H2763H8467H8045H3068H6680H487221At that time Joshua came and wiped out the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel; Joshua utterly destroyed them with their towns.H6256H935H3091H3772H6062H2022H2275H1688H6024H2022H3063H2022H3478H3091H2763H589222None of the Anakim was left in the land of the Israelites; some remained only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod.H6062H3498H776H1121H3478H5804H1661H795H760423So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD had spoken to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their tribal allotments. And the land had rest from war.H3091H3947H776H3068H1696H4872H3091H5414H5159H3478H4256H7626H776H8252H4421
