Joshua 10
1 Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it, as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king, and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them,
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，
2 that they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all the men of it were mighty.
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。
3 Therefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, and to Piram king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,
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：
4 Come up to me, and help me, and let us smite Gibeon, for it has made peace with Joshua and with the sons of Israel.
「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。」
5 Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their armies, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
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。
6 And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Slack not thy hand from thy servants. Come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the hill-country are gathered together against us.
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。」
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
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。
8 And Jehovah said to Joshua, Fear them not, for I have delivered them into thy hands. There shall not a man of them stand before thee.
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。」
9 Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, for he went up from Gilgal all the night.
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。
10 And Jehovah discomfited them before Israel, and he killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and to Makkedah.
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。
11 And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that Jehovah cast down great stones from heaven upon them to Azekah, and they died. More died with the hailstones than those whom the sons of Israel killed with the sword.
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。
12 Then Joshua spoke to Jehovah in the day when Jehovah delivered up the Amorites before the sons of Israel. And he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon, and thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.
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! 」
13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and hastened not to go down about a whole day.
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。
14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that Jehovah hearkened to the voice of a man, for Jehovah fought for Israel.
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。
15 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.
此後，若蘇厄和所有跟隨他的以色列人，回了基耳加耳營。
16 And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
至於那五個逃脫的王子，藏在瑪刻達山洞裏，
17 And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
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。」
18 And Joshua said, Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them,
若蘇厄吩咐說：「你們把幾塊大石滾到洞口，派人看守。
19 but stay ye not. Pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them. Do not allow them to enter into their cities, for Jehovah your God has delivered them into your hand.
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。」
20 And it came to pass, when Joshua and the sons of Israel had made an end of killing them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
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。
21 that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. No man moved his tongue against any of the sons of Israel.
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。
22 Then Joshua said, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth those five kings to me out of the cave.
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。」
23 And they did so, and brought forth those five kings to him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
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，
24 And it came to pass, when they brought forth those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.
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。
25 And Joshua said to them, Fear not, nor be dismayed. Be strong and of good courage, for thus shall Jehovah do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.
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。」
26 And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees. And they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
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。
27 And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave in which they had hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, to this very day.
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。
28 And Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king of it. He utterly destroyed them and all the souls that were in it. He left none remaining, and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
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。
29 And Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
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。
30 And Jehovah delivered it also, and the king of it, into the hand of Israel. And he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it. He left none remaining in it, and he did to the king of it as he had done to the king of Jericho.
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。
31 And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it.
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，
32 And Jehovah delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel. And he took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
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。
33 Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish. And Joshua smote him and his people until he had left him none remaining.
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。
34 And Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, to Eglon. And they encamped against it, and fought against it.
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。
35 And they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword. And all the souls that were in it he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
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。
36 And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron. And they fought against it,
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；
37 and they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king of it, and all the cities of it, and all the souls that were in it. He left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon, but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls that were in it.
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。
38 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it.
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，
39 And he took it, and the king of it, and all the cities of it. And they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were in it. He left none remaining. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the king of it, as he had done also to Libnah, and to the king of it.
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。
40 So Joshua smote all the land, the hill-country, and the South, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings. He left none remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Jehovah, the God of Israel, commanded.
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，
41 And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon.
由卡德士巴爾乃亞起，直到迦薩，以及哥笙全境，直到基貝紅。
42 And all these kings and their land Joshua took at one time, because Jehovah, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
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。
43 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
以後，若蘇厄和所有跟隨他的以色列人，回到基耳加耳營。
