約書亞記 11
1 哈祚爾王雅一聽見這事，便派人去見瑪冬王，史默龍王，阿革沙夫王，
And when Jabis the king of Asor heard, he sent to Jobab king of Maron, and to the king of Symoon, and to the king of Aziph,
2 和住在北方山區，基乃勒特南方平原低地，和西方的多爾高原諸王；
and to the kings who were by the great Sidon, to the hill country and to Araba opposite Keneroth, and to the plain, and to Phenaeddor,
3 又去見東西各地的客納罕人、阿摩黎人、希威人、培黎齊人，以及住在山區的耶步斯人，和赫爾孟山麓米茲帕地方的赫特人。
and to the Chananites on the coast eastward, and to the Amorites on the coast, and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Jebusites in the mountain, and the Evites, and those dwelling under [mount] Aermon in the land Massyma.
4 他們都帶領自己所有的軍隊和車輛。
And they and their kings with them went forth, as the sand of the sea in multitude, and horses, and very many chariots.
5 這些王子都合一起來，來到默龍水邊紮營，要同以色列人交戰。
And all the kings assembled in person, and came to the same place, and encamped at the waters of Maron to war with Israel.
6 上主對若蘇厄說：「在這些人面前，你不要害怕，因為明天這時，我必要使他們全在以色列人面前被殺；你要砍斷他們的馬蹄筋，火燒他們的車輛。」
And the Lord said to Joshua, Be not afraid of them, for to-morrow [at] this time I will put them to flight before Israel: you shall hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire
7 若蘇厄遂率領自己的軍民突至默龍水旁，向他們進攻。
And Joshua and all the men of war came upon them at the water of Maron suddenly; and they attacked them in the hill country.
8 上主將他們交在以色列人手中，以色列人擊殺他們，往西直追到大漆冬和米斯勒佛特瑪殷，往東直追到米茲帕山谷，將他們殺得沒有剩下一個。
And the Lord delivered them into the power of Israel; and they struck them and pursued them to great Sidon, and to Maseron, and to the plains of Massoch eastward; and they destroyed them till there was not one of them left that survived.
9 若蘇厄便照上主指示他的，對待了他們，砍斷了他們的馬碲筋，火燒了他們的車輛。
And Joshua did to them, as the Lord commanded him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 若蘇厄班師回來時，奪取了哈祚爾，用刀斬了哈祚爾王。──原來哈祚爾以前是這些王國的都城。
And Joshua returned at that time, and took Asor and her king; now Asor in former time was the chief of these kingdoms.
11 又將城內的一切生靈，用刀殺死，完全予以毀滅，沒有留下一個生靈，以後放火燒了哈祚爾城。
And they killed with the sword all that breathed in it, and utterly destroyed them all, and there was no living thing left in it; and they burnt Asor with fire.
12 若蘇厄奪取了那些王子的一切城邑，生摛那些王子，用刀將他們殺死，將城池完全予以毀滅，全照上主的僕人梅瑟所吩咐的。
And Joshua took all the cities of the kingdoms, and their kings, and killed them with the edge of the sword; and utterly killed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded.
13 至於那些處於土丘上的城市，除哈祚爾外，以色列人都沒有焚毀：若蘇厄只燒了哈祚爾。
But all the walled cities Israel burnt not; but Israel burnt Asor only.
14 那些城中所有的財物和牲畜，以色列人都搶了來，歸為己有：所有的人都用刀殺死，完全予以毀滅，沒有留下一個生靈。
And the children of Israel took all its spoils to themselves; and they killed all the men with the edge of the sword, until he destroyed them; they left not one of them breathing.
15 上主怎樣吩咐衪的僕人梅瑟，梅瑟也怎樣吩咐了若蘇厄，若蘇厄也就怎樣辦了。凡上主吩咐梅瑟的事，若蘇厄沒有不照辦的。
As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, even so Moses commanded Joshua; and so Joshua did, he transgressed no precept of all that Moses commanded him.
16 這樣，若蘇厄佔領了那整個地區：包括山地，整個南方，哥笙全境，平原，阿辣巴原野，以色列山地和附近平原，
And Joshua took all the hill country, and all the land of Nageb, and all the land of Gosom, and the plain country, and that towards the west, and the mountain of Israel and the low country by the mountain;
17 由上色依爾去的哈拉克山起，一直到赫爾孟山麓，黎巴嫩山谷間的巴爾加得：各城的王子都被生摛，都被殺死。
from the mountain of Chelcha, and that which goes up to Seir, and as far as Balagad, and the plains of Libanus, under mount Aermon; and he took all their kings, and destroyed, and killed them.
18 若蘇厄同這些王子交戰，時日頗為長久，
And for many days Joshua waged war with these kings.
19 因為除住在基貝紅的希威人外，沒有一座城願與以色列子民媾和，都是以色列人用武力攻取的。
And there was no city which Israel took not; they took all in war.
20 原來這是上主的意思，叫他們心硬，來與以色列人交戰，好使他們遭受無情的毀滅，澈底的破壞，正如上主對梅瑟所吩咐的
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts to go forth to war against Israel, that they might be utterly destroyed, that mercy should not be granted to them, but that they should be utterly destroyed, as the Lord said to Moses.
21 以後若蘇厄出兵，消滅了赫貝龍、德彼爾、阿納布山地、猶大山地和以色列山地所有的阿納克人，毀滅了他們和他們所有的城市。
And Joshua came at that time, and utterly destroyed the Enakim out of the hill country, from Chebron and from Dabir, and from Anaboth, and from all the race of Israel, and from all the mountain of Juda with their cities; and Joshua utterly destroyed them.
22 這樣以色列子民境內，沒有剩下一個阿納克人，只在迦薩、加特和阿布多得還有。
There was not [any one] left of the Enakim by the children of Israel, only there was left of them in Gaza, and in Gath, and in Aseldo.
23 若蘇厄佔領了那整個地區，全如上主對梅瑟所說的；若蘇厄遂將這地區按照以色列支派分給他們作產業。以後國內昇平，再無戰事。
And Joshua took all the land, as the Lord commanded Moses; and Joshua gave them for an inheritance to Israel by division according to their tribes; and the land ceased from war.
