Joshua 10
1 Now when Adoni-zedek King of Ierusalem had heard how Ioshua had taken Ai and had destroyed it, (for as he had done to Iericho and to the King thereof, so he had done to Ai and to the King thereof) and howe the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them,
quae cum audisset Adonisedec rex Hierusalem quod scilicet cepisset Iosue Ahi et subvertisset eam sicut enim fecerat Hiericho et regi eius sic fecit Ahi et regi illius et quod transfugissent Gabaonitae ad Israhel et essent foederati eorum
2 Then they feared exceedingly: for Gibeon was a great citie, as one of the royall cities: for it was greater then Ai, and all the men thereof were mightie.
timuit valde urbs enim magna erat Gabaon et una regalium civitatum et maior oppido Ahi omnesque bellatores eius fortissimi
3 Wherefore Adoni-zedek King of Ierusalem sent vnto Hoham King of Hebron, and vnto Piram King of Iarmuth, and vnto Iapia King of Lachish, and vnto Debir King of Eglon, saying,
misit ergo Adonisedec rex Hierusalem ad Oham regem Hebron et ad Pharam regem Hieremoth ad Iaphie quoque regem Lachis et ad Dabir regem Eglon dicens
4 Come vp vnto me, and helpe me, that we may smite Gibeon: for they haue made peace with Ioshua and with the children of Israel.
ascendite ad me et ferte praesidium ut expugnemus Gabaon quare transfugerit ad Iosue et filios Israhel
5 Therefore the fiue Kings of the Amorites, the King of Ierusalem, the King of Hebron, the King of Iarmuth, the King of Lachish, and the King of Eglon gathered themselues together, and went vp, they with all their hostes, and besieged Gibeon, and made warre against it.
congregati igitur ascenderunt quinque reges Amorreorum rex Hierusalem rex Hebron rex Hieremoth rex Lachis rex Eglon simul cum exercitibus suis et castrametati sunt circa Gabaon obpugnantes eam
6 And the men of Gibeon sent vnto Ioshua, euen to the hoste to Gilgal, saying, Withdrawe not thine hand from thy seruants: come vp to vs quickly, and saue vs, and helpe vs: for all the Kings of the Amorites which dwell in the mountaines, are gathered together against vs.
habitatores autem Gabaon urbis obsessae miserunt ad Iosue qui tunc morabatur in castris apud Galgalam et dixerunt ei ne retrahas manus tuas ab auxilio servorum tuorum ascende cito et libera nos ferque praesidium convenerunt enim adversum nos omnes reges Amorreorum qui habitant in montanis
7 So Ioshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of warre with him, and all the men of might.
ascenditque Iosue de Galgalis et omnis exercitus bellatorum cum eo viri fortissimi
8 And the Lord sayd vnto Ioshua, Feare them not: for I haue giuen them into thine hand: none of them shall stand against thee.
dixitque Dominus ad Iosue ne timeas eos in manus enim tuas tradidi illos nullus tibi ex eis resistere poterit
9 Ioshua therefore came vnto them suddenly: for he went vp from Gilgal all the night.
inruit itaque Iosue super eos repente tota ascendens nocte de Galgalis
10 And the Lord discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth vp to Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah and to Makkedah.
et conturbavit eos Dominus a facie Israhel contrivitque plaga magna in Gabaon ac persecutus est per viam ascensus Bethoron et percussit usque Azeca et Maceda
11 And as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going downe to Beth-horon, the Lord cast downe great stones from heauen vpon them, vntill Azekah, and they dyed: they were more that dyed with the hailestones, then they whom the children of Israel slewe with the sword.
cumque fugerent filios Israhel et essent in descensu Bethoron Dominus misit super eos lapides magnos de caelo usque Azeca et mortui sunt multo plures lapidibus grandinis quam quos gladio percusserant filii Israhel
12 Then spake Ioshua to the Lord, in the day when the Lord gaue the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he sayd in the sight of Israel, Sunne, stay thou in Gibeon, and thou moone, in the valley of Aialon.
tunc locutus est Iosue Domino in die qua tradidit Amorreum in conspectu filiorum Israhel dixitque coram eis sol contra Gabaon ne movearis et luna contra vallem Ahialon
13 And the Sunne abode, and the moone stood still, vntill the people auenged themselues vpon their enemies: (Is not this written in the booke of Iasher?) so the Sunne abode in the middes of the heauen, and hasted not to goe downe for a whole day.
steteruntque sol et luna donec ulcisceretur se gens de inimicis suis nonne scriptum est hoc in libro Iustorum stetit itaque sol in medio caeli et non festinavit occumbere spatio unius diei
14 And there was no day like that before it, nor after it, that the Lord heard the voyce of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel.
non fuit ante et postea tam longa dies oboediente Domino voci hominis et pugnante pro Israhel
15 After, Ioshua returned, and all Israel with him vnto the campe to Gilgal:
reversusque est Iosue cum omni Israhel in castra Galgalae
16 But the fiue Kings fled and were hid in a caue at Makkedah.
fugerant enim quinque reges et se absconderant in spelunca urbis Maceda
17 And it was tolde Ioshua, saying, The fiue Kings are found hid in a caue at Makkedah.
nuntiatumque est Iosue quod inventi essent quinque reges latentes in spelunca Maceda
18 Then Ioshua said, Roule great stones vpon the mouth of the caue, and set men by it for to keepe them.
qui praecepit sociis et ait volvite saxa ingentia ad os speluncae et ponite viros industrios qui clausos custodiant
19 But stand ye not still: follow after your enemies, and smite all the hindmost, suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the Lord your God hath giuen them into your hand.
vos autem nolite stare sed persequimini hostes et extremos quosque fugientium caedite ne dimittatis eos urbium suarum intrare praesidia quos tradidit Dominus Deus in manus vestras
20 And when Ioshua and the children of Israel had made an ende of slaying them with an exceeding great slaughter till they were consumed, and the rest that remained of them were entred into walled cities,
caesis igitur adversariis plaga magna et usque ad internicionem paene consumptis hii qui Israhel effugere potuerunt ingressi sunt civitates munitas
21 Then all the people returned to the campe, to Ioshua at Makkedah in peace: no man mooued his tongue against the children of Israel.
reversusque est omnis exercitus ad Iosue in Maceda ubi tunc erant castra sani et integro numero nullusque contra filios Israhel muttire ausus est
22 After, Ioshua sayd, Open the mouth of the caue, and bring out these fiue Kings vnto me forth of the caue.
praecepitque Iosue dicens aperite os speluncae et producite ad me quinque reges qui in ea latitant
23 And they did so, and brought out those fiue Kings vnto him forth of the caue, euen the King of Ierusalem, the King of Hebron, ye King of Iarmuth, the King of Lachish, and the King of Eglon.
fecerunt ministri ut sibi fuerat imperatum et eduxerunt ad eum quinque reges de spelunca regem Hierusalem regem Hebron regem Hieremoth regem Lachis regem Eglon
24 And when they had brought out those Kings vnto Ioshua, Ioshua called for all the men of Israel, and sayd vnto the chiefe of the men of warre, which went with him, Come neere, set your feete vpon the necks of these Kings: and they came neere and set their feete vpon their necks.
cumque educti essent ad eum vocavit omnes viros Israhel et ait ad principes exercitus qui secum erant ite et ponite pedes super colla regum istorum qui cum perrexissent et subiectorum pedibus colla calcarent
25 And Ioshua sayd vnto them, Feare not, nor be faint hearted, but be strong and of a good courage: for thus will the Lord doe to all your enemies, against whome ye fight.
rursum ait ad eos nolite timere nec paveatis confortamini et estote robusti sic enim faciet Dominus cunctis hostibus vestris adversum quos dimicatis
26 So then Ioshua smote them, and slewe them, and hanged them on fiue trees, and they hanged still vpon the trees vntill the euening.
percussitque Iosue et interfecit eos atque suspendit super quinque stipites fueruntque suspensi usque ad vesperum
27 And at the going downe of the sunne, Ioshua gaue commandement, that they should take them downe off the trees, and cast them into the caue (wherein they had bene hid) and they layde great stones vpon the caues mouth, which remaine vntill this day.
cumque occumberet sol praecepit sociis ut deponerent eos de patibulis qui depositos proiecerunt in speluncam in qua latuerant et posuerunt super os eius saxa ingentia quae permanent usque in praesens
28 And that same day Ioshua tooke Makkedah and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the King thereof destroyed he with them, and all the soules that were therein, he let none remaine: for hee did to the King of Makkedah as he had done vnto the King of Iericho.
eodem die Macedam quoque cepit Iosue et percussit in ore gladii regemque illius interfecit et omnes habitatores eius non dimisit in ea saltim parvas reliquias fecitque regi Maceda sicut fecerat regi Hiericho
29 Then Ioshua went from Makkedah, and all Israel with him vnto Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
transivit cum omni Israhel de Maceda in Lebna et pugnabat contra eam
30 And the Lord gaue it also and the King thereof into the hand of Israel: and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the soules that were therein: he let none remaine in it: for he did vnto the King thereof, as he had done vnto the King of Iericho.
quam tradidit Dominus cum rege suo in manu Israhel percusseruntque urbem in ore gladii et omnes habitatores eius non dimiserunt in ea ullas reliquias feceruntque regi Lebna sicut fecerant regi Hiericho
31 And Ioshua departed from Libnah, and all Israel with him vnto Lachish, and besieged it, and assaulted it.
de Lebna transivit in Lachis et exercitu per gyrum disposito obpugnabat eam
32 And the Lord gaue Lachish into the hand of Israel, which tooke it the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the soules that were therein, according to all as he had done to Libnah.
tradiditque Dominus Lachis in manu Israhel et cepit eam die altero atque percussit in ore gladii omnemque animam quae fuerat in ea sicut fecerat Lebna
33 Then Horam King of Gezer came vp to helpe Lachish: but Ioshua smote him and his people, vntill none of his remained.
eo tempore ascendit Hiram rex Gazer ut auxiliaretur Lachis quem percussit Iosue cum omni populo eius usque ad internicionem
34 And from Lachish Ioshua departed vnto Eglon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged it, and assaulted it,
transivitque de Lachis in Eglon et circumdedit
35 And they tooke it the same day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the soules that were therein he vtterly destroyed the same day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
atque expugnavit eam eadem die percussitque in ore gladii omnes animas quae erant in ea iuxta omnia quae fecerat Lachis
36 Then Ioshua went vp from Eglon, and all Israel with him vnto Hebron, and they fought against it.
ascendit quoque cum omni Israhele de Eglon in Hebron et pugnavit contra eam
37 And when they had taken it, they smote it with the edge of the sword, and the King thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the soules that were therein: he left none remaining, according to all as he had done to Eglon: for he destroyed it vtterly, and all the soules that were therein.
cepitque et percussit in ore gladii regem quoque eius et omnia oppida regionis illius universasque animas quae in ea fuerant commoratae non reliquit in ea ullas reliquias sicut fecerat Eglon sic fecit et Hebron cuncta quae in ea repperit consumens gladio
38 So Ioshua returned, and all Israel with him to Debir, and fought against it.
inde reversus in Dabir
39 And when he had taken it, and the King thereof, and all the citie thereof, they smote them with the edge of the sword, and vtterly destroyed all the soules that were therein, he let none remaine: as he did to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the King thereof, as he had also done to Libnah, and to the King thereof.
cepit eam atque vastavit regem quoque eius et omnia per circuitum oppida percussit in ore gladii non dimisit in ea ullas reliquias sicut fecerat Hebron et Lebna et regibus earum sic fecit Dabir et regi illius
40 So Ioshua smote all the hill countreys, and the South countreys, and the valleys, and the hill sides, and all their Kings, and let none remaine, but vtterly destroyed euery soule, as the Lord God of Israel had commanded.
percussit itaque Iosue omnem terram montanam et meridianam atque campestrem et Asedoth cum regibus suis non dimisit in ea ullas reliquias sed omne quod spirare poterat interfecit sicut praeceperat ei Dominus Deus Israhel
41 And Ioshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea euen vnto Azzah, and all the countrey of Goshen, euen vnto Gibeon.
a Cadesbarne usque Gazam omnem terram Gosen usque Gabaon
42 And all these Kings, and their land did Ioshua take at one time, because the Lord God of Israel fought for Israel.
universos reges et regiones eorum uno cepit impetu atque vastavit Dominus enim Deus Israhel pugnabat pro eo
43 Afterward, Ioshua and all Israel with him returned vnto the campe in Gilgal.
reversusque est cum omni Israhele ad locum castrorum in Galgala
