約書亞記 10
1 當耶路撒冷王阿多尼責德克聽說若蘇厄攻佔了哈依，完全予以毀滅，對待哈依和哈依王如對待耶利哥和耶利哥王一樣；又聽說基貝紅居民已與以色列媾和，可住在他們中間，
And when Adoni-bezec king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Gai, and had destroyed it, as he did to Jericho and its king, even so they did to Gai and its king, and that the inhabitants of Gabaon had gone over to Joshua and Israel;
2 大為震驚，因為基貝紅是座大城，像座京城，比哈依還大，中的人又都勇敢。
then they were greatly terrified by them, for [the king] knew that Gabaon [was] a great city, as one of the chief cities, and all its men [were] mighty.
3 耶路撒冷王阿多尼責德克打發使者去見赫貝龍王曷罕、雅爾慕特王丕蘭、拉基士王雅非雅和厄革隆王德彼爾說：
So Adoni-bezec king of Jerusalem sent to Elam king of Hebron, and to Phidon king of Jerimuth, and to Jephtha king of Lachis, and to Dabin king of Odollam, saying,
4 「請你們前來援助我，攻打基貝紅，因為這城已與若蘇厄和以色列人媾和。」
Come up hither to me, and help me, and let us take Gabaon; for the Gabaonites have gone over to Joshua and to the children of Israel.
5 那五個阿摩黎王，即耶路撒冷王、赫貝龍王、雅爾慕特王、拉基士王和厄革隆王聯合起來，率領他們所有的軍隊上去包圍了基貝紅，合力進攻。
And the five kings of the Jebusites went up, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam, they and all their people; and encamped around Gabaon, and besieged it.
6 基貝紅人即派人到基耳加耳營中見若蘇厄說：「你不要袖手不顧你的僕人，請快上來援助，扶助我們，因為住在山地的眾阿摩黎王都聯合起來攻擊我們。」
And the inhabitants of Gabaon sent to Joshua into the camp to Galgala, saying, Slack not your hands from your servants: come up quickly to us, and help us, and rescue us; for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the hill country are gathered together against us.
7 若蘇厄遂親率他的一切軍民，和所有的精兵，從耳加耳上去了。
And Joshua went up from Galgala, he and all the people of war with him, every one mighty in strength.
8 上主對若蘇厄說：「你不要怕他們，因為我已將他們交在你手中，沒有一人能抵抗你。」
And the Lord said to Joshua, Fear them not, for I have delivered them into your hands; there shall not one of them be left before you.
9 若蘇厄由基耳加耳出發，整夜行軍，出其不意，突然向他們進攻。
And when Joshua came suddenly upon them, he [had] advanced all the night out of Galgala.
10 上主使他們以色列人前大為混亂，以色列人在基貝紅將他們完全擊敗，隨後在往貝特曷龍的上坡路上追趕他們，擊殺他們直到阿則卡，直到瑪刻達。
And the Lord struck them with terror before the children of Israel; and the Lord destroyed them with a great slaughter at Gabaon; and they pursued them by the way of the going up of Oronin, and they struck them to Azeca and to Makeda.
11 當他們逃避以色列人，來到貝特曷龍下坡時，上主從天上降下冰雹，落在他們身上，直落到阿則卡，死傷無數；為冰雹砸死的人，教宗以色列用刀死的還多。
And when they fled from the face of the children of Israel at the descent of Oronin, then the Lord cast upon them hailstones from heaven to Azeca; and they were more that died by the hailstones, than those whom the children of Israel killed with the sword in the battle.
12 上主將阿摩黎人交於以色列子民的那一天，若蘇厄當以色列人的面對上主說：「太陽! 停在基貝紅! 月亮! 停在阿雅隆谷! 」
Then Joshua spoke to the Lord, in the day in which the Lord delivered the Amorite into the power of Israel, when he destroyed them in Gabaon, and they were destroyed from before the children of Israel: and Joshua said, Let the sun stand over against Gabaon, and the moon over against the valley of Aelon.
13 太陽果然停住，月亮站住不動，直到百姓報復了自己的仇敵。這事豈不是記載在「義士書」上了嗎﹖太陽停在空中，未急速下落，約有一整天。
And the sun and the moon stood still, until God executed vengeance on their enemies; and the sun stood still in the midst of heaven; it did not proceed to set till the end of one day.
14 以前或以後，從來沒有一天像這天一樣。上主這樣俯聽了人的呼聲，因為是上主在為以色列人作戰。
And there was not such a day either before or after, so that God should listen to a man, because the Lord fought on the side of Israel.
15 此後，若蘇厄和所有跟隨他的以色列人，回了基耳加耳營。
16 至於那五個逃脫的王子，藏在瑪刻達山洞裏，
And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave that is in Makeda.
17 有人來通知若蘇厄說：「那五個王子已被發現，藏在瑪刻達山洞裏。」
And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings have been found hid in the cave that is in Makeda.
18 若蘇厄吩咐說：「你們把幾塊大石滾到洞口，派人看守。
And Joshua said, Roll stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men to watch over them.
19 你們不可停下來，要去追趕敵人，切斷他們的後路，不容他們逃入城中，因為上主你們的天主，已將他們交在你們手中。」
But do not you stand, but pursue after your enemies, and attack the rear of them, and do not suffer them to enter into their cities; for the Lord our God has delivered them into our hands.
20 以色列子民將他們殺得慘敗，幾乎將他們全部消滅，只剩下一些逃脫的人進入了堅城。
And it came to pass when Joshua and all Israel ceased destroying them utterly with a very great slaughter, that they that escaped took refuge in the strong cities.
21 軍民都平安無恙地回到瑪克達見若蘇厄。以後沒有人再敢侮辱以色列子民。
And all the people returned safe to Joshua to Makeda; and no one of the children of Israel murmured with his tongue.
22 那時若蘇厄說：「你們去打開洞口，把五個王子從洞裏拉出來，帶到我這裏來。」
And Joshua said, Open the cave, and bring out these five kings out of the cave.
23 人就去，將那五個王子，是耶路撒冷王、赫貝龍王、雅爾慕特王、拉基斯王和厄格隆王，從洞裏拉出，帶到他面前，
And they brought out the five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam.
24 當人們把那五個王子帶到若蘇厄面前時，若蘇厄將所有的以色列人召來，對那些與他同去作戰的軍長說：「你們前來，將腳踏在這些王子的脖子上! 」他們就前來，將腳踏在那些王子的脖子上。
And when they brought them out to Joshua, then Joshua called together all Israel, and the chiefs of the army that went with him, saying to them, Come forward and set your feet on their necks; and they came and set their feet on their necks.
25 若蘇厄對他們說：「你們不要害怕，不要沮喪，只要勇敢果斷，因為上主必要這樣對待你們所征服的一切仇人。」
And Joshua said to them, Do not fear them, neither be cowardly; be courageous and strong, for thus the Lord will do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.
26 隨後，若蘇厄將那五個王子殺死，將他們懸在五棵樹上，直懸到晚上。
And Joshua killed them, and hanged them on five trees; and they hung upon the trees until the evening.
27 到太陽快落時候，o命人將他們由樹上放下來，丟在他們藏過的山洞裏，用大石頭塞住洞口；那些大石至今尚在。
And it came to pass towards the setting of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave into which they [had] fled for refuge, and rolled stones to the cave, [which remain] till this day.
28 若蘇厄當天就佔領了瑪克達，並用利劍擊殺了那城和城中的王子，並將城中的一切生靈完全毀滅，一個也沒有留下；他對待瑪刻達王如對耶利哥王一樣。
And they took Makeda on that day, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and they utterly destroyed every living thing that was in it; and there was none left in it that was preserved and had escaped; and they did to the king of Makeda, as they did to the king of Jericho.
29 若蘇厄和跟隨他的眾以色列人，由瑪刻達往里貝納進攻，攻打里貝納。
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed out of Makeda to Lebna, and besieged Lebna.
30 上主也將這城和城中的王子交在以色列人手中；他們用利劍擊殺了城和城中的一切生靈，一個也沒有留下；他對待這城中的王子，如對待耶利哥王一樣。
And the Lord delivered it into the hands of Israel: and they took it, and its king, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and every thing breathing in it; and there was not left in it any that survived and escaped; and they did to its king, as they did to the king of Jericho.
31 若蘇厄和跟隨他的眾以色列人，又從里貝納往拉基士推進，圍攻拉基士，
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed from Lebna to Lachis, and he encamped about it, and besieged it.
32 上主將拉基士也交在以色列人手中。第二天若蘇厄攻取了拉基士，用利劍擊殺了那城和城中的一切生靈，全如對待里貝納一樣。
And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel; and they took it on the second day, and they put the inhabitants to death with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed it, as they had done to Lebna.
33 那時曷爾曷蘭上來援救拉基士，若蘇厄也將他和他的人民殺盡，一個也沒有留下。
Then Elam the king of Gazer went up to help Lachis; and Joshua struck him and his people with the edge of the sword, until there was not left to him one that was preserved and escaped.
34 此後，若蘇厄和跟隨他的眾以色列人，由拉基士往厄革隆推進，圍攻厄革隆。
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed from Lachis to Odollam, and he besieged it and took it.
35 當夜攻下了那城，並在那天用利劍殺盡了那城和城中的一切生靈，全如對待拉基士一樣。
And the Lord delivered it into the hand of Israel; and he took it on that day, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and killed every thing breathing in it, as they did to Lachis.
36 上後，若蘇厄和跟隨他的眾以色列人，從厄革隆上到赫貝龍，攻打那城；
And Joshua and all Israel with him departed to Chebron, and encamped about it.
37 佔領後，用利劍擊殺了那城和城中的王子，以及屬於他的一切生靈，一個也沒有留下；將那城和城中一切生靈完全消滅，全如對待厄革隆一樣。
And he struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the living creatures that were in it; there was no one preserved: they destroyed it and all things in it, as they did to Odollam.
38 此後，若蘇厄和跟隨他的眾以色列人，轉身向德彼爾推進，攻打那城，
And Joshua and all Israel returned to Dabir; and they encamped about it;
39 獲得了那城和那城的王子，以及屬德彼爾的一切城邑後，用利劍擊殺了他們，將這些城內的一切生靈完全毀滅，一個也沒有留下；對待德彼爾城和城中的王子，有如對待赫貝龍和赫貝龍的王子一樣又如對待里貝納和里貝納王子一樣。
and they took it, and its king, and its villages: and he struck it with the edge of the sword, and they destroyed it, and every thing breathing in it; and they did not leave in it any one that was preserved: as they did to Chebron and her king, so they did to Dabir and her king.
40 若蘇厄征服了那一帶地方包括山地、乃革布、平原、山坡和那些地方的不子；並照上主以色列的天主的命令，消滅了所有的生靈，一個也沒有留下，
And Joshua struck all the land of the hill country, and Nageb and the plain country, and Asedoth, and her kings, they did not leave of them one that was saved: and they utterly destroyed every thing that had the breath of life, as the Lord God of Israel commanded,
41 由卡德士巴爾乃亞起，直到迦薩，以及哥笙全境，直到基貝紅。
from Cades Barne to Gaza, all Gosom, as far as Gabaon.
42 若蘇厄這次出征，能獲取所有的王子和他們的土地，是因為上主以色列的天主在為以色列人作戰。
And Joshua struck, once for all, all their kings, and their land, because the Lord God of Israel fought on the side of Israel.
43 以後，若蘇厄和所有跟隨他的以色列人，回到基耳加耳營。
