Joshua 11
1 And it comes to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor hears, that he sends to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
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，
2 and to the kings who [are] on the north in the hill-country, and in the plain south of Chinneroth, and in the low country, and in the elevations of Dor, on the west,
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；
3 [to] the Canaanite on the east, and on the west, and the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the hill-country, and the Hivite under Hermon, in the land of Mizpeh—
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。
4 and they go out, they and all their camps with them, a people numerous, as the sand which [is] on the seashore for multitude, and [with] very many horse and charioteer;
他們都帶領自己所有的軍隊和車輛。
5 and all these kings are met together, and they come and encamp together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
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。
6 And YHWH says to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of their presence, for about this time tomorrow I am giving all of them slain before Israel; hamstring their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.”
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。」
7 And Joshua comes, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom, and they suddenly fall on them;
若蘇厄遂率領自己的軍民突至默龍水旁，向他們進攻。
8 and YHWH gives them into the hand of Israel, and they strike them and pursue them to the great Sidon, and to Misrephoth-Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpeh eastward, and they strike them, until he has not left a remnant to them;
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。
9 and Joshua does to them as YHWH commanded to him; he has hamstrung their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.
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。
10 And Joshua turns back at that time, and captures Hazor, and he has struck its king by the sword; for Hazor [was] formerly head of all these kingdoms;
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。
11 and they strike every person who [is] in it by the mouth of the sword; he has devoted—he has not left anyone breathing, and he has burned Hazor with fire;
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。
12 and all the cities of these kings, and all their kings, Joshua has captured, and he strikes them by the mouth of the sword; he devoted them, as Moses, servant of YHWH, commanded.
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。
13 Only, all the cities which are standing by their hill, Israel has not burned them—except Joshua has burned Hazor, only;
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。
14 and all the spoil of these cities, and the livestock, the sons of Israel have spoiled for themselves; only, they have struck every man by the mouth of the sword, until their destroying them; they have not left anyone breathing.
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。
15 As YHWH commanded His servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua has done; he has not turned aside a thing of all that YHWH commanded Moses.
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。
16 And Joshua takes all this land: the hill-country, and all the south, and all the land of Goshen, and the low country, and the plain, even the hill-country of Israel and its low lands,
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，
17 from the Mount of Halak, which is going up [to] Seir, and to Ba‘al-Gad, in the Valley of Lebanon, under Mount Hermon; and he has captured all their kings, and he strikes them, and puts them to death.
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。
18 Joshua has made war with all these kings [for] many days;
若蘇厄同這些王子交戰，時日頗為長久，
19 there has not been a city which made peace with the sons of Israel except the Hivite, inhabitants of Gibeon; they have taken the whole in battle;
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。
20 for it has been from YHWH to strengthen their heart, to meet in battle with Israel, in order to devote them, so that they have no grace, but in order to destroy them, as YHWH commanded Moses.
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
21 And Joshua comes at that time, and cuts off the Anakim from the hill-country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill-country of Judah, and from all the hill-country of Israel; Joshua has devoted them with their cities.
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。
22 There has not been Anakim left in the land of the sons of Israel; only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, were they left.
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。
23 And Joshua takes the whole of the land, according to all that YHWH has spoken to Moses, and Joshua gives it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions, by their tribes; and the land has rest from war.
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。
