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,
Ketika Yabin, raja kota Hazor, mendengar tentang semua kemenangan bangsa Israel, dia memanggil raja-raja lain yaitu Raja Yobab dari kota Madon, raja kota Simron, raja kota Aksaf,
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,
juga raja-raja di pegunungan sebelah utara, di lembah Yordan sebelah selatan danau Galilea, di daerah kaki pegunungan, dan di pesisir dekat kota Dor.
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—
Yabin juga memanggil orang Kanaan di sebelah timur dan sebelah barat sungai Yordan, orang Amori, orang Het, orang Feris, orang Yebus di daerah pegunungan, dan orang Hewi di kaki gunung Hermon di daerah Mispa.
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;
Raja-raja itu maju membawa pasukan mereka. Jumlah mereka sangat banyak, seperti pasir di tepi pantai. Kuda dan kereta perang mereka juga sangat banyak.
5 and all these kings are met together, and they come and encamp together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
Semua raja itu menggabungkan pasukan. Mereka berkemah di sungai Merom untuk menyerang Israel.
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.”
Berkatalah TUHAN kepada Yosua, “Jangan takut terhadap mereka. Karena besok, pada waktu yang sama seperti sekarang, Aku akan menyerahkan mereka semua mati terbunuh di tangan kalian. Lumpuhkan kuda-kuda mereka dan bakarlah kereta-kereta perang mereka.”
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;
Maka Yosua dan seluruh pasukannya menyerang pasukan musuh itu dengan tiba-tiba di dekat sungai Merom.
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;
TUHAN menyerahkan mereka semua kepada orang Israel. Pasukan Israel mengalahkan musuh dan memburu mereka sampai ke kota besar Sidon, kota Misrefot Maim di sebelah barat laut, dan sampai ke lembah Mispa di sebelah timur laut. Tidak ada seorang pun yang selamat.
9 and Joshua does to them as YHWH commanded to him; he has hamstrung their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.
Yosua dan pasukan Israel melumpuhkan semua kuda musuh dan membakar semua kereta perang mereka, sesuai dengan perintah TUHAN kepadanya.
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;
Kemudian Yosua dan pasukannya berbalik lalu pergi merebut kota Hazor dan membunuh rajanya. Dahulu, kota Hazor adalah pusat kerajaan-kerajaan yang melawan Israel itu.
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;
Pasukan Yosua membunuh semua orang di kota Hazor, lalu membakar kota itu. Tidak ada satu pun yang selamat.
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.
Yosua merebut semua kota lainnya dan membunuh raja-raja mereka, seperti yang diperintahkan Musa, hamba TUHAN itu.
13 Only, all the cities which are standing by their hill, Israel has not burned them—except Joshua has burned Hazor, only;
Akan tetapi, orang Israel tidak membakar kota-kota yang di atas bukit, kecuali Hazor yang dibakar oleh Yosua dan pasukannya.
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.
Orang Israel mengambil semua barang berharga dan ternak-ternak dari kota-kota itu. Tetapi seluruh penduduknya mereka habisi. Tidak ada seorang pun yang dibiarkan hidup.
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.
Demikianlah Yosua menjalankan segala perintah TUHAN yang disampaikan-Nya melalui Musa. Tak ada satu pun yang tidak terlaksana.
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,
Jadi, Yosua berhasil merebut seluruh negeri itu bagi Israel, mulai dari daerah pegunungan, seluruh padang belantara Negeb, seluruh daerah di sekitar kota Gosyen, dan lembah Yordan. Yosua sudah menguasai seluruh daerah pegunungan Israel dan dataran rendahnya,
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.
dari gunung Halak di selatan, naik sampai ke gunung Seir, sampai kota Baal Gad di Lembah Libanon di utara, di bawah gunung Hermon. Yosua berperang melawan raja-raja itu selama bertahun-tahun sampai dia berhasil menangkap dan membunuh mereka semua.
18 Joshua has made war with all these kings [for] many days;
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;
Tidak ada kota yang membuat perjanjian damai dengan Israel kecuali orang Hewi di kota Gibeon. Semua kota lainnya sudah dikalahkan,
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.
karena TUHAN sengaja membuat musuh-musuh Israel keras kepala dan berani melawan Israel. Tujuannya supaya mereka dimusnahkan tanpa belas kasihan, seperti yang sudah diperintahkan-Nya kepada Musa.
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.
Pada waktu itu, Yosua juga menyerang dan menghabisi orang raksasa Anakim dari Hebron, Debir, Anab, dan seluruh daerah pegunungan Yehuda dan Israel. Yosua memusnahkan mereka seluruhnya dan menghancurkan kota-kota mereka.
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.
Karena itu, tidak ada lagi keturunan raksasa Anakim di wilayah Israel. Mereka hanya tersisa di kota Gaza, Gat, dan Asdod.
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.
Demikianlah Yosua menguasai seluruh negeri itu, seperti yang TUHAN sudah janjikan kepada Musa. Yosua membagikan negeri itu kepada suku-suku Israel sebagai tanah warisan mereka, dan sesudah itu perang pun berhenti.
