< Joshua 11 >

1 Now when Jabin king of Hazor heard about these things, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon; to the kings of Shimron and Achshaph;
Succedeu depois d'isto que, ouvindo-o Jabin, rei d'Hazor, enviou a Jobab, rei de Madon, e ao rei de Simron, e ao rei d'Acsaph;
2 to the kings of the north in the mountains, in the Arabah south of Chinnereth, in the foothills, and in Naphoth-dor to the west;
E os reis, que estavam ao norte, nas montanhas, e na campina para o sul de Cinneroth, e nas planicies, e em Naphoth-dor, da banda do mar;
3 to the Canaanites in the east and west; to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, and Jebusites in the hill country; and to the Hivites at the foot of Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
Ao cananeo do oriente e do occidente; e ao amorrheo, e ao hetheo, e ao pherezeo, e ao jebuseo nas montanhas: e ao heveo ao pé d'Hermon, na terra de Mispah.
4 So these kings came out with all their armies, a multitude as numerous as the sand on the seashore, along with a great number of horses and chariots.
Sairam pois estes, e todos os seus exercitos com elles, muito povo, como a areia que está na praia do mar em multidão: e muitissimos cavallos e carros.
5 All these kings joined forces and encamped at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
Todos estes reis se ajuntaram, e vieram e se acamparam junto ás aguas de Merom, para pelejarem contra Israel.
6 Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for by this time tomorrow I will deliver all of them slain before Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn up their chariots.”
E disse o Senhor a Josué: Não temas diante d'elles; porque ámanhã a esta mesma hora eu os darei todos feridos diante dos filhos d'Israel; os seus cavallos jarretarás, e os seus carros queimarás a fogo.
7 So by the waters of Merom, Joshua and his whole army came upon them suddenly and attacked them,
E Josué, e toda a gente de guerra com elle, veiu apressadamente sobre elles ás aguas de Merom: e deram n'elles de repente.
8 and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who struck them down and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, leaving no survivors.
E o Senhor os deu na mão d'Israel, e os feriram, e os seguiram até á grande Sidon, e até Misrephoth-main, e até ao valle de Mispah ao oriente; feriram-os até não lhes deixarem nenhum
9 Joshua treated them as the LORD had told him; he hamstrung their horses and burned up their chariots.
E fez-lhes Josué como o Senhor lhe dissera: os seus cavallos jarretou, e os seus carros queimou a fogo.
10 At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword, because Hazor was formerly the head of all these kingdoms.
E n'aquelle mesmo tempo tornou Josué, e tomou a Hazor, e feriu á espada ao seu rei: porquanto Hazor d'antes era a cabeça de todos estes reinos.
11 The Israelites put everyone in Hazor to the sword, devoting them to destruction. Nothing that breathed remained, and Joshua burned down Hazor itself.
E a toda a alma, que n'ella havia, feriram ao fio da espada, e totalmente os destruiram; nada restou do que tinha folego, e a Hazor queimou com fogo.
12 Joshua captured all these kings and their cities and put them to the sword. He devoted them to destruction, as Moses the LORD’s servant had commanded.
E Josué tomou todas as cidades d'estes reis, e todos os seus reis, e os feriu ao fio da espada, destruindo-os totalmente: como ordenara a Moysés servo do Senhor.
13 Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds, except Hazor, which Joshua burned.
Tão sómente não queimaram os israelitas as cidades que estavam sobre os seus outeiros: salvo sómente Hazor, a qual Josué queimou.
14 The Israelites took for themselves all the plunder and livestock of these cities, but they put all the people to the sword until they had completely destroyed them, not sparing anyone who breathed.
E todos os despojos d'estas cidades, e o gado, os filhos d'Israel saquearam para si: tão sómente a todos os homens feriram ao fio da espada, até que os destruiram: nada do que folego tinha deixaram com vida.
15 As the LORD had commanded His servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua. That is what Joshua did, leaving nothing undone of all that the LORD had commanded Moses.
Como ordenara o Senhor a Moysés seu servo, assim Moysés ordenou a Josué: e assim Josué o fez; nem uma só palavra tirou de tudo o que o Senhor ordenara a Moysés.
16 So Joshua took this entire region: the hill country, all the Negev, all the land of Goshen, the western foothills, the Arabah, and the mountains of Israel and their foothills,
Assim Josué tomou toda aquella terra, as montanhas, e todo o sul, e toda a terra de Gosen, e as planicies, e as campinas, e as montanhas d'Israel; e as suas planicies;
17 from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, as far as Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon at the foot of Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings and struck them down, putting them to death.
Desde o monte calvo, que sobe a Seir, até Baal-gad, no valle do Libano, ás raizes do monte de Hermon: tambem tomou todos os seus reis, e os feriu e os matou.
18 Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long period of time.
Por muitos dias Josué fez guerra contra todos estes reis.
19 No city made peace with the Israelites except the Hivites living in Gibeon; all others were taken in battle.
Não houve cidade que fizesse paz com os filhos d'Israel, senão os heveos, moradores de Gibeon: por guerra as tomaram todas.
20 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts to engage Israel in battle, so that they would be set apart for destruction and would receive no mercy, being annihilated as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Porquanto do Senhor vinha, que os seus corações endurecessem, para sairem ao encontro a Israel na guerra, para os destruir totalmente, para se não ter piedade d'elles; mas para os destruir a todos, como o Senhor tinha ordenado a Moysés.
21 At that time Joshua proceeded to eliminate the Anakim from the hill country of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah and of Israel. Joshua devoted them to destruction, along with their cities.
N'aquelle tempo veiu Josué, e extirpou os enaquins das montanhas d'Hebron, de Debir, d'Anab, e de todas as montanhas de Judah, e de todas as montanhas d'Israel: Josué os destruiu totalmente com as suas cidades.
22 No Anakim were left in the land of the Israelites; only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod did any survive.
Nenhum dos enaquins ficou de resto na terra dos filhos d'Israel: sómente ficaram de resto em Gaza, em Gath, e em Asdod.
23 So Joshua took the entire land, in keeping with all that the LORD had spoken to Moses. And Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to the allotments to their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
Assim Josué tomou toda esta terra, conforme a tudo o que o Senhor tinha dito a Moysés; e Josué a deu em herança aos filhos d'Israel, conforme ás suas divisões, conforme ás suas tribus: e a terra repousou da guerra
