28 And that day [03117] Joshua [03091] took [03920] Makkedah [04719], and smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and the king [04428] thereof he utterly destroyed [02763], them, and all the souls [05315] that were therein; he let [07604] none remain [08300]: and he did [06213] to the king [04428] of Makkedah [04719] as he did [06213] unto the king [04428] of Jericho [03405].
29 Then Joshua [03091] passed [05674] from Makkedah [04719], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Libnah [03841], and fought [03898] against Libnah [03841]:
30 And the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] it also, and the king [04428] thereof, into the hand [03027] of Israel [03478]; and he smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and all the souls [05315] that were therein; he let [07604] none remain [08300] in it; but did [06213] unto the king [04428] thereof as he did [06213] unto the king [04428] of Jericho [03405].
31 And Joshua [03091] passed [05674] from Libnah [03841], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Lachish [03923], and encamped [02583] against it, and fought [03898] against it:
32 And the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] Lachish [03923] into the hand [03027] of Israel [03478], which took [03920] it on the second [08145] day [03117], and smote [05221] 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] to Libnah [03841].
33 Then Horam [02036] king [04428] of Gezer [01507] came up [05927] to help [05826] Lachish [03923]; and Joshua [03091] smote [05221] him and his people [05971], until he had left [07604] him none remaining [08300].
34 And from Lachish [03923] Joshua [03091] passed [05674] unto Eglon [05700], and all Israel [03478] with him; and they encamped [02583] against it, and fought [03898] against it:
35 And they took [03920] it on that day [03117], and smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and all the souls [05315] that were therein he utterly destroyed [02763] that day [03117], according to all that he had done [06213] to Lachish [03923].
36 And Joshua [03091] went up [05927] from Eglon [05700], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Hebron [02275]; and they fought [03898] against it:
37 And they took [03920] it, and smote [05221] 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] none remaining [08300], according to all that he had done [06213] to Eglon [05700]; but destroyed [02763] it utterly, and all the souls [05315] that were therein.
38 And Joshua [03091] returned [07725], and all Israel [03478] with him, to Debir [01688]; and fought [03898] against it:
39 And he took [03920] it, and the king [04428] thereof, and all the cities [05892] thereof; and they smote [05221] them with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and utterly destroyed [02763] all the souls [05315] that were therein; he left [07604] none remaining [08300]: as he had done [06213] to Hebron [02275], so he did [06213] to Debir [01688], and to the king [04428] thereof; as he had done [06213] also to Libnah [03841], and to her king [04428].
40 So Joshua [03091] smote [05221] 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] none remaining [08300], but utterly destroyed [02763] all that breathed [05397], as the LORD [03068] God [0430] of Israel [03478] commanded [06680].
41 And Joshua [03091] smote [05221] them from Kadeshbarnea [06947] even unto Gaza [05804], and all the country [0776] of Goshen [01657], even unto Gibeon [01391].
42 And all these kings [04428] and their land [0776] did Joshua [03091] take [03920] at one [0259] time [06471], because the LORD [03068] God [0430] of Israel [03478] fought [03898] for Israel [03478].
13 And unto Caleb [03612] the son [01121] of Jephunneh [03312] he gave [05414] a part [02506] among [08432] the children [01121] of Judah [03063], according [0413] to the commandment [06310] of the LORD [03068] to Joshua [03091], even the city [07151] of Arba [0704] [07153] the father [01] of Anak [06061], which city is Hebron [02275].
14 And Caleb [03612] drove [03423] thence the three [07969] sons [01121] of Anak [06061], Sheshai [08344], and Ahiman [0289], and Talmai [08526], the children [03211] of Anak [06061].
15 And he went up [05927] thence to the inhabitants [03427] of Debir [01688]: and the name [08034] of Debir [01688] before [06440] was Kirjathsepher [07158].
16 And Caleb [03612] said [0559], He that smiteth [05221] Kirjathsepher [07158], and taketh [03920] it, to him will I give [05414] Achsah [05915] my daughter [01323] to wife [0802].
17 And Othniel [06274] the son [01121] of Kenaz [07073], the brother [0251] of Caleb [03612], took [03920] it: and he gave [05414] him Achsah [05915] his daughter [01323] to wife [0802].
12 Now therefore give [05414] me this mountain [02022], whereof the LORD [03068] spake [01696] in that day [03117]; for thou heardest [08085] in that day [03117] how the Anakims [06062] were there, and that the cities [05892] were great [01419] and fenced [01219]: if so be [0194] the LORD [03068] will be with [0854] me, then I shall be able to drive them out [03423], as the LORD [03068] said [01696].
21 And at that time [06256] came [0935] Joshua [03091], and cut off [03772] the Anakims [06062] from the mountains [02022], from Hebron [02275], from Debir [01688], from Anab [06024], and from all the mountains [02022] of Judah [03063], and from all the mountains [02022] of Israel [03478]: Joshua [03091] destroyed them utterly [02763] with their cities [05892].
22 There was none of the Anakims [06062] left [03498] in the land [0776] of the children [01121] of Israel [03478]: only in Gaza [05804], in Gath [01661], and in Ashdod [0795], there remained [07604].
36 And Joshua [03091] went up [05927] from Eglon [05700], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Hebron [02275]; and they fought [03898] against it:
37 And they took [03920] it, and smote [05221] 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] none remaining [08300], according to all that he had done [06213] to Eglon [05700]; but destroyed [02763] it utterly, and all the souls [05315] that were therein.
38 And Joshua [03091] returned [07725], and all Israel [03478] with him, to Debir [01688]; and fought [03898] against it:
39 And he took [03920] it, and the king [04428] thereof, and all the cities [05892] thereof; and they smote [05221] them with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and utterly destroyed [02763] all the souls [05315] that were therein; he left [07604] none remaining [08300]: as he had done [06213] to Hebron [02275], so he did [06213] to Debir [01688], and to the king [04428] thereof; as he had done [06213] also to Libnah [03841], and to her king [04428].
10 And Judah [03063] went [03212] against the Canaanites [03669] that dwelt [03427] in Hebron [02275]: (now the name [08034] of Hebron [02275] before [06440] was Kirjatharba [07153]:) and they slew [05221] Sheshai [08344], and Ahiman [0289], and Talmai [08526].
11 And from thence he went [03212] against the inhabitants [03427] of Debir [01688]: and the name [08034] of Debir [01688] before [06440] was Kirjathsepher [07158]:
12 And Caleb [03612] said [0559], He that smiteth [05221] Kirjathsepher [07158], and taketh [03920] it, to him will I give [05414] Achsah [05915] my daughter [01323] to wife [0802].
13 And Othniel [06274] the son [01121] of Kenaz [07073], Caleb's [03612] younger [06996] brother [0251], took [03920] it: and he gave [05414] him Achsah [05915] his daughter [01323] to wife [0802].
13 And unto Caleb [03612] the son [01121] of Jephunneh [03312] he gave [05414] a part [02506] among [08432] the children [01121] of Judah [03063], according [0413] to the commandment [06310] of the LORD [03068] to Joshua [03091], even the city [07151] of Arba [0704] [07153] the father [01] of Anak [06061], which city is Hebron [02275].
14 And Caleb [03612] drove [03423] thence the three [07969] sons [01121] of Anak [06061], Sheshai [08344], and Ahiman [0289], and Talmai [08526], the children [03211] of Anak [06061].
15 And he went up [05927] thence to the inhabitants [03427] of Debir [01688]: and the name [08034] of Debir [01688] before [06440] was Kirjathsepher [07158].
16 And Caleb [03612] said [0559], He that smiteth [05221] Kirjathsepher [07158], and taketh [03920] it, to him will I give [05414] Achsah [05915] my daughter [01323] to wife [0802].
17 And Othniel [06274] the son [01121] of Kenaz [07073], the brother [0251] of Caleb [03612], took [03920] it: and he gave [05414] him Achsah [05915] his daughter [01323] to wife [0802].
12 Now therefore give [05414] me this mountain [02022], whereof the LORD [03068] spake [01696] in that day [03117]; for thou heardest [08085] in that day [03117] how the Anakims [06062] were there, and that the cities [05892] were great [01419] and fenced [01219]: if so be [0194] the LORD [03068] will be with [0854] me, then I shall be able to drive them out [03423], as the LORD [03068] said [01696].
21 And at that time [06256] came [0935] Joshua [03091], and cut off [03772] the Anakims [06062] from the mountains [02022], from Hebron [02275], from Debir [01688], from Anab [06024], and from all the mountains [02022] of Judah [03063], and from all the mountains [02022] of Israel [03478]: Joshua [03091] destroyed them utterly [02763] with their cities [05892].
22 There was none of the Anakims [06062] left [03498] in the land [0776] of the children [01121] of Israel [03478]: only in Gaza [05804], in Gath [01661], and in Ashdod [0795], there remained [07604].
49 And Dannah [01837], and Kirjathsannah [07158], which is Debir [01688],
38 And Joshua [03091] returned [07725], and all Israel [03478] with him, to Debir [01688]; and fought [03898] against it:
38 And Joshua [03091] returned [07725], and all Israel [03478] with him, to Debir [01688]; and fought [03898] against it:
49 And Dannah [01837], and Kirjathsannah [07158], which is Debir [01688],
19 Who answered [0559], Give [05414] me a blessing [01293]; for thou hast given [05414] me a south [05045] land [0776]; give [05414] me also springs [01543] of water [04325]. And he gave [05414] her the upper [05942] springs [01543], and the nether [08482] springs [01543].
49 And Dannah [01837], and Kirjathsannah [07158], which is Debir [01688],
49 And Dannah [01837], and Kirjathsannah [07158], which is Debir [01688],
49 And Dannah [01837], and Kirjathsannah [07158], which is Debir [01688],
15 And Holon [02473] with her suburbs [04054], and Debir [01688] with her suburbs [04054],
49 And Dannah [01837], and Kirjathsannah [07158], which is Debir [01688],
11 And from thence he went [03212] against the inhabitants [03427] of Debir [01688]: and the name [08034] of Debir [01688] before [06440] was Kirjathsepher [07158]:
15 And he went up [05927] thence to the inhabitants [03427] of Debir [01688]: and the name [08034] of Debir [01688] before [06440] was Kirjathsepher [07158].
38 And Joshua [03091] returned [07725], and all Israel [03478] with him, to Debir [01688]; and fought [03898] against it:
39 And he took [03920] it, and the king [04428] thereof, and all the cities [05892] thereof; and they smote [05221] them with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and utterly destroyed [02763] all the souls [05315] that were therein; he left [07604] none remaining [08300]: as he had done [06213] to Hebron [02275], so he did [06213] to Debir [01688], and to the king [04428] thereof; as he had done [06213] also to Libnah [03841], and to her king [04428].
28 And that day [03117] Joshua [03091] took [03920] Makkedah [04719], and smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and the king [04428] thereof he utterly destroyed [02763], them, and all the souls [05315] that were therein; he let [07604] none remain [08300]: and he did [06213] to the king [04428] of Makkedah [04719] as he did [06213] unto the king [04428] of Jericho [03405].
29 Then Joshua [03091] passed [05674] from Makkedah [04719], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Libnah [03841], and fought [03898] against Libnah [03841]:
30 And the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] it also, and the king [04428] thereof, into the hand [03027] of Israel [03478]; and he smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and all the souls [05315] that were therein; he let [07604] none remain [08300] in it; but did [06213] unto the king [04428] thereof as he did [06213] unto the king [04428] of Jericho [03405].
31 And Joshua [03091] passed [05674] from Libnah [03841], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Lachish [03923], and encamped [02583] against it, and fought [03898] against it:
32 And the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] Lachish [03923] into the hand [03027] of Israel [03478], which took [03920] it on the second [08145] day [03117], and smote [05221] 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] to Libnah [03841].
33 Then Horam [02036] king [04428] of Gezer [01507] came up [05927] to help [05826] Lachish [03923]; and Joshua [03091] smote [05221] him and his people [05971], until he had left [07604] him none remaining [08300].
34 And from Lachish [03923] Joshua [03091] passed [05674] unto Eglon [05700], and all Israel [03478] with him; and they encamped [02583] against it, and fought [03898] against it:
35 And they took [03920] it on that day [03117], and smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and all the souls [05315] that were therein he utterly destroyed [02763] that day [03117], according to all that he had done [06213] to Lachish [03923].
36 And Joshua [03091] went up [05927] from Eglon [05700], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Hebron [02275]; and they fought [03898] against it:
37 And they took [03920] it, and smote [05221] 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] none remaining [08300], according to all that he had done [06213] to Eglon [05700]; but destroyed [02763] it utterly, and all the souls [05315] that were therein.
3 Wherefore Adonizedek [0139] king [04428] of Jerusalem [03389] sent [07971] 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],
34 And from Lachish [03923] Joshua [03091] passed [05674] unto Eglon [05700], and all Israel [03478] with him; and they encamped [02583] against it, and fought [03898] against it:
35 And they took [03920] it on that day [03117], and smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and all the souls [05315] that were therein he utterly destroyed [02763] that day [03117], according to all that he had done [06213] to Lachish [03923].
3 And goeth down [03381] westward [03220] to the coast [01366] of Japhleti [03311], unto the coast [01366] of Bethhoron [01032] the nether [08481], and to Gezer [01507]: and the goings out [08444] thereof are at the sea [03220].
16 For Pharaoh [06547] king [04428] of Egypt [04714] had gone up [05927], and taken [03920] Gezer [01507], and burnt [08313] it with fire [0784], and slain [02026] the Canaanites [03669] that dwelt [03427] in the city [05892], and given [05414] it for a present [07964] unto his daughter [01323], Solomon's [08010] wife [0802].
17 And Solomon [08010] built [01129] Gezer [01507], and Bethhoron [01032] the nether [08481],
16 David [01732] therefore did [06213] as God [0430] commanded [06680] him: and they smote [05221] the host [04264] of the Philistines [06430] from Gibeon [01391] even to Gazer [01507].
25 And David [01732] did so [06213], as the LORD [03068] had commanded [06680] him; and smote [05221] the Philistines [06430] from Geba [01387] until thou come [0935] to Gazer [01507].
20 And the families [04940] of the children [01121] of Kohath [06955], the Levites [03881] which remained [03498] of the children [01121] of Kohath [06955], even they had the cities [05892] of their lot [01486] out of the tribe [04294] of Ephraim [0669].
21 For they gave [05414] them Shechem [07927] with her suburbs [04054] in mount [02022] Ephraim [0669], to be a city [05892] of refuge [04733] for the slayer [07523]; and Gezer [01507] with her suburbs [04054],
9 And the separate [03995] cities [05892] for the children [01121] of Ephraim [0669] were among [08432] the inheritance [05159] of the children [01121] of Manasseh [04519], all the cities [05892] with their villages [02691].
10 And they drave not out [03423] the Canaanites [03669] that dwelt [03427] in Gezer [01507]: but the Canaanites [03669] dwell [03427] among [07130] the Ephraimites [0669] unto this day [03117], and serve [05647] under tribute [04522].
3 And goeth down [03381] westward [03220] to the coast [01366] of Japhleti [03311], unto the coast [01366] of Bethhoron [01032] the nether [08481], and to Gezer [01507]: and the goings out [08444] thereof are at the sea [03220].
16 David [01732] therefore did [06213] as God [0430] commanded [06680] him: and they smote [05221] the host [04264] of the Philistines [06430] from Gibeon [01391] even to Gazer [01507].
29 Neither did Ephraim [0669] drive out [03423] the Canaanites [03669] that dwelt [03427] in Gezer [01507]; but the Canaanites [03669] dwelt [03427] in Gezer [01507] among [07130] them.
10 And they drave not out [03423] the Canaanites [03669] that dwelt [03427] in Gezer [01507]: but the Canaanites [03669] dwell [03427] among [07130] the Ephraimites [0669] unto this day [03117], and serve [05647] under tribute [04522].
33 Then Horam [02036] king [04428] of Gezer [01507] came up [05927] to help [05826] Lachish [03923]; and Joshua [03091] smote [05221] him and his people [05971], until he had left [07604] him none remaining [08300].
3 Wherefore Adonizedek [0139] king [04428] of Jerusalem [03389] sent [07971] 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],
31 And Joshua [03091] passed [05674] from Libnah [03841], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Lachish [03923], and encamped [02583] against it, and fought [03898] against it:
32 And the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] Lachish [03923] into the hand [03027] of Israel [03478], which took [03920] it on the second [08145] day [03117], and smote [05221] 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] to Libnah [03841].
8 So Rabshakeh [07262] returned [07725], and found [04672] the king [04428] of Assyria [0804] warring [03898] against Libnah [03841]: for he had heard [08085] that he was departed [05265] from Lachish [03923].
8 So Rabshakeh [07262] returned [07725], and found [04672] the king [04428] of Assyria [0804] warring [03898] against Libnah [03841]: for he had heard [08085] that he was departed [05265] from Lachish [03923].
22 Yet Edom [0123] revolted [06586] from under the hand [03027] of Judah [03063] unto this day [03117]. Then Libnah [03841] revolted [06586] at the same [01931] time [06256].
13 Thus they gave [05414] to the children [01121] of Aaron [0175] the priest [03548] Hebron [02275] with her suburbs [04054], to be a city [05892] of refuge [04733] for the slayer [07523]; and Libnah [03841] with her suburbs [04054],
42 Libnah [03841], and Ether [06281], and Ashan [06228],
29 Then Joshua [03091] passed [05674] from Makkedah [04719], and all Israel [03478] with him, unto Libnah [03841], and fought [03898] against Libnah [03841]:
30 And the LORD [03068] delivered [05414] it also, and the king [04428] thereof, into the hand [03027] of Israel [03478]; and he smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and all the souls [05315] that were therein; he let [07604] none remain [08300] in it; but did [06213] unto the king [04428] thereof as he did [06213] unto the king [04428] of Jericho [03405].
29 And the king [04428] of Ai [05857] he hanged [08518] on a tree [06086] until eventide [06256] [06153]: and as soon as the sun [08121] was down [0935], Joshua [03091] commanded [06680] that they should take [03381] his carcase [05038] down [03381] from the tree [06086], and cast [07993] it at the entering [06607] of the gate [08179] of the city [05892], and raise [06965] thereon a great [01419] heap [01530] of stones [068], that remaineth unto this day [03117].
2 And thou shalt do [06213] to Ai [05857] and her king [04428] as thou didst [06213] unto Jericho [03405] and her king [04428]: only the spoil [07998] thereof, and the cattle [0929] thereof, shall ye take for a prey [0962] unto yourselves: lay [07760] thee an ambush [0693] for the city [05892] behind [0310] it.
27 Only the cattle [0929] and the spoil [07998] of that city [05892] Israel [03478] took for a prey [0962] unto themselves, according unto the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] which he commanded [06680] Joshua [03091].
28 And Joshua [03091] burnt [08313] Ai [05857], and made [07760] it an heap [08510] for ever [05769], even a desolation [08077] unto this day [03117].
37 And they took [03920] it, and smote [05221] 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] none remaining [08300], according to all that he had done [06213] to Eglon [05700]; but destroyed [02763] it utterly, and all the souls [05315] that were therein.
10 And the LORD [03068] discomfited [02000] them before [06440] Israel [03478], and slew [05221] them with a great [01419] slaughter [04347] at Gibeon [01391], and chased [07291] them along the way [01870] that goeth up [04608] to Bethhoron [01032], and smote [05221] them to Azekah [05825], and unto Makkedah [04719].
28 And that day [03117] Joshua [03091] took [03920] Makkedah [04719], and smote [05221] it with the edge [06310] of the sword [02719], and the king [04428] thereof he utterly destroyed [02763], them, and all the souls [05315] that were therein; he let [07604] none remain [08300]: and he did [06213] to the king [04428] of Makkedah [04719] as he did [06213] unto the king [04428] of Jericho [03405].
