Joshua 10
1 Now it happened when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Joshua and with Israel, and were among them;
Setelah terdengar oleh Adoni-Zedek, raja Yerusalem, bahwa Yosua telah merebut Ai dan telah menumpasnya--seperti yang dilakukannya terhadap Yerikho dan terhadap rajanya, demikianlah juga dilakukannya terhadap Ai dan terhadap rajanya--dan bahwa penduduk kota Gibeon telah mengadakan ikatan persahabatan dengan orang Israel dan diam di tengah-tengah mereka,
2 that they were very afraid, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
maka sangat takutlah orang, sebab Gibeon itu kota yang besar, seperti salah satu kota kerajaan, bahkan lebih besar dari Ai, dan semua orangnya adalah pahlawan.
3 Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, to Piram king of Jarmuth, to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,
Sebab itu Adoni-Zedek, raja Yerusalem, menyuruh orang kepada Hoham, raja Hebron, kepada Piream, raja Yarmut, kepada Yafia, raja Lakhis, dan kepada Debir, raja Eglon, mengatakan:
4 "Come up to me, and help me, and let us strike Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel."
"Datanglah kepadaku dan bantulah aku, supaya kita menggempur Gibeon, karena telah mengadakan ikatan persahabatan dengan Yosua dan orang Israel."
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 camped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
Lalu kelima raja orang Amori itu berkumpul dan bergerak maju: raja Yerusalem, raja Hebron, raja Yarmut, raja Lakhis dan raja Eglon, mereka beserta seluruh tentara mereka. Mereka berkemah mengepung Gibeon dan berperang melawannya.
6 The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, "Do not abandon your servants. Come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill country have gathered together against us."
Lalu orang-orang Gibeon itu menyuruh orang kepada Yosua, ke tempat perkemahan di Gilgal, mengatakan: "Jangan menarik tanganmu dari pada hamba-hambamu ini. Datanglah dengan segera kepada kami, lepaskanlah kami dan bantulah kami, sebab semua raja orang Amori, yang diam di pegunungan, telah bergabung melawan kami."
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
Lalu Yosua bergerak maju dari Gilgal, dia dan seluruh tentara yang bersama-sama dengan dia, semuanya pahlawan yang gagah perkasa.
8 The LORD said to Joshua, "Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. Not a man of them will stand before you."
Berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Yosua: "Janganlah takut kepada mereka, sebab Aku menyerahkan mereka kepadamu. Tidak seorangpun dari mereka yang akan dapat bertahan menghadapi engkau."
9 Joshua therefore came on them suddenly. He went up from Gilgal all night.
Lalu Yosua menyerang mereka dengan tiba-tiba, setelah semalam-malaman bergerak maju dari Gilgal.
10 The LORD confused 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 struck them to Azekah and to Makkedah.
Dan TUHAN mengacaukan mereka di depan orang Israel, sehingga Yosua menimbulkan kekalahan yang besar di antara mereka dekat Gibeon, mengejar mereka ke arah pendakian Bet-Horon dan memukul mereka mundur sampai dekat Azeka dan Makeda.
11 And it happened, as they fled from before the children of Israel while they were at the descent of Beth Horon, that the LORD cast down stones from the sky on them as far as Azekah, and they died. There were more who died from the hailstones than who the children of Israel killed with the sword.
Sedang mereka melarikan diri di depan orang Israel dan baru di lereng Bet-Horon, maka TUHAN melempari mereka dengan batu-batu besar dari langit, sampai ke Azeka, sehingga mereka mati. Yang mati kena hujan batu itu ada lebih banyak dari yang dibunuh oleh orang Israel dengan pedang.
12 Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites into the hand of Israel, when he struck them down at Gibeon, and they were struck down before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel, "Sun, stand still on Gibeon. You, moon, stop in the Valley of Aijalon."
Lalu Yosua berbicara kepada TUHAN pada hari TUHAN menyerahkan orang Amori itu kepada orang Israel; ia berkata di hadapan orang Israel: "Matahari, berhentilah di atas Gibeon dan engkau, bulan, di atas lembah Ayalon!"
13 The sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Isn't this written in the book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the midst of the sky, and did not hurry to go down about a whole day.
Maka berhentilah matahari dan bulanpun tidak bergerak, sampai bangsa itu membalaskan dendamnya kepada musuhnya. Bukankah hal itu telah tertulis dalam Kitab Orang Jujur? Matahari tidak bergerak di tengah langit dan lambat-lambat terbenam kira-kira sehari penuh.
14 There was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD listened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.
Belum pernah ada hari seperti itu, baik dahulu maupun kemudian, bahwa TUHAN mendengarkan permohonan seorang manusia secara demikian, sebab yang berperang untuk orang Israel ialah TUHAN.
15 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
Kemudian Yosua dan seluruh orang Israel yang menyertainya pulang kembali ke tempat perkemahan di Gilgal.
16 These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
Kelima raja itu melarikan diri dan bersembunyi di dalam gua di Makeda.
17 Joshua was told, saying, "The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah."
Kepada Yosua dikabarkan, demikian: "Kelima raja itu telah ditemukan bersembunyi di dalam gua di Makeda."
18 Joshua said, "Roll large stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to guard them;
Lalu berkatalah Yosua: "Gulingkanlah batu-batu yang besar ke mulut gua itu dan tempatkanlah di sana orang untuk menjaga mereka.
19 but do not stay. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Do not allow them to enter into their cities; for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand."
Tetapi kamu, janganlah kamu berhenti, kejarlah musuhmu dan hantamlah barisan belakangnya; janganlah biarkan mereka masuk ke dalam kota-kota mereka, sebab TUHAN, Allahmu, menyerahkan mereka kepadamu!"
20 It happened, when Joshua and the children of Israel had finished killing them with a very great slaughter until they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
Setelah Yosua dan orang Israel selesai menimbulkan kekalahan yang besar sekali di antara mereka, sampai mereka dihancurkan sama sekali--beberapa orang dari mereka dapat lolos dan masuk ke kota-kota yang diperkuat--
21 that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
pulanglah seluruh bangsa itu dengan selamat kepada Yosua ke tempat perkemahan, di Makeda. Tidak ada seorangpun yang berani melemparkan kata-kata ancaman terhadap orang Israel.
22 Then Joshua said, "Open the mouth of the cave, and bring those five kings out of the cave to me."
Kemudian berkatalah Yosua: "Bukalah mulut gua dan keluarkanlah kelima raja itu dari dalam dan bawa kepadaku."
23 They did so, and brought those five kings out of the cave to him: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
Dilakukan oranglah demikian, kelima raja itu dikeluarkan dari gua itu dan dibawa kepadanya: raja Yerusalem, raja Hebron, raja Yarmut, raja Lakhis dan raja Eglon.
24 It happened, when they brought those kings out 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 on the necks of these kings." They came near, and put their feet on their necks.
Setelah raja-raja itu dikeluarkan dan dibawa kepada Yosua, maka Yosuapun memanggil semua orang Israel berkumpul dan berkata kepada para panglima tentara, yang ikut berperang bersama-sama dengan dia: "Marilah dekat, taruhlah kakimu ke atas tengkuk raja-raja ini." Maka datanglah mereka dekat dan menaruh kakinya ke atas tengkuk raja-raja itu.
25 Joshua said to them, "Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed. Be strong and of good courage, for the LORD will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight."
Lalu berkatalah Yosua kepada mereka: "Janganlah takut dan janganlah tawar hati, kuatkan dan teguhkanlah hatimu, sebab secara itulah akan dilakukan TUHAN kepada semua musuhmu, yang kamu perangi."
26 Afterward Joshua struck them, put them to death, and hanged them on five trees. They were hanging on the trees until the evening.
Sesudah itu Yosua membunuh raja-raja itu, dan menggantung mereka pada lima tiang, dan mereka tinggal tergantung pada tiang-tiang itu sampai matahari terbenam.
27 It happened 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, which remain to this very day.
Tetapi menjelang matahari terbenam, atas perintah Yosua mayat mereka diturunkan dari tiang-tiang itu, dan dilemparkan ke dalam gua, tempat mereka bersembunyi. Lalu mulut gua itu ditutupi orang dengan batu-batu besar, yang masih ada sampai sekarang.
28 Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king. He utterly destroyed them and all the souls who were in it. He left none remaining. He did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Pada hari itu Yosua merebut Makeda dan kota itu dipukulnya dengan mata pedang, juga rajanya; kota itu dan semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya ditumpasnya, tidak ada seorangpun yang dibiarkannya lolos, dan raja Makeda, diperlakukannya seperti telah diperlakukannya raja Yerikho.
29 Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
Kemudian Yosua dengan seluruh Israel berjalan terus dari Makeda ke Libna, lalu memerangi Libna.
30 The LORD delivered it also, with its king, into the hand of Israel. He struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls who were in it. He left none remaining in it. He did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Dan TUHAN menyerahkan kota itu juga kepada orang Israel, beserta rajanya. Yosua memukul kota itu dan semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya dengan mata pedang, tidak ada seorangpun di dalamnya yang dibiarkannya lolos, dan rajanya itu, diperlakukannya seperti telah diperlakukannya raja Yerikho.
31 Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and camped against it, and fought against it.
Kemudian Yosua dengan seluruh Israel berjalan terus dari Libna ke Lakhis, lalu berkemah mengepung kota itu dan berperang melawannya.
32 The LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel. He took it on the second day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls who were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
Dan TUHAN menyerahkan Lakhis kepada orang Israel. Yosua merebut kota itu pada hari yang kedua. Kota itu dan semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya dipukulnya dengan mata pedang, tepat seperti yang dilakukannya terhadap Libna.
33 Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua struck him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.
Lalu Horam, raja Gezer, maju untuk membantu Lakhis, tetapi Yosua menewaskan dia dan rakyatnya, sehingga tidak ada seorangpun padanya yang dibiarkannya lolos.
34 Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, to Eglon; and they camped against it fought against it.
Kemudian Yosua dengan seluruh Israel berjalan terus dari Lakhis ke Eglon, lalu mereka berkemah mengepung kota itu dan berperang melawannya.
35 They took it on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword. He utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
Kota itu direbut mereka pada hari itu juga dan dipukul dengan mata pedang. Semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya ditumpasnya pada hari itu, tepat seperti yang dilakukan terhadap Lakhis.
36 Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it.
Kemudian Yosua dengan seluruh Israel bergerak maju dari Eglon ke Hebron, lalu berperang melawannya.
37 They took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king and all its cities, and all the souls who 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 who were in it.
Negeri itu direbut mereka dan dipukul dengan mata pedang, juga rajanya dan segala kotanya dan semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya, tidak seorangpun yang dibiarkannya lolos, tepat seperti yang dilakukannya terhadap Eglon. Kota itu dan semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya ditumpasnya.
38 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it.
Kemudian Yosua dengan seluruh Israel kembali ke Debir, lalu berperang melawannya.
39 He took it, with its king and all its cities. They struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it. He left none remaining. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.
Negeri itu beserta rajanya dan segala kotanya direbutnya, dan dipukul dengan mata pedang. Semua makhluk yang ada di dalamnya ditumpas mereka, tidak seorangpun yang dibiarkannya lolos; seperti yang dilakukannya terhadap Hebron, demikianlah dilakukan terhadap Debir beserta rajanya, sama seperti yang dilakukannya terhadap Libna beserta rajanya.
40 So Joshua struck all the land, the hill country, and the Negev, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings. He left none remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded.
Demikianlah Yosua mengalahkan seluruh negeri itu, Pegunungan, Tanah Negeb, Daerah Bukit dan Lereng Gunung, beserta semua raja mereka. Tidak seorangpun yang dibiarkannya lolos, tetapi ditumpasnya semua yang bernafas, seperti yang diperintahkan TUHAN, Allah Israel.
41 And Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and the entire region of Goshen as far as Gibeon.
Yosua menewaskan mereka dari Kadesh-Barnea sampai Gaza, juga seluruh tanah Gosyen sampai Gibeon.
42 Joshua took all these kings and their land at one time, because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
Semua raja ini dan negeri mereka telah dikalahkan Yosua sekaligus, sebab yang berperang untuk orang Israel ialah TUHAN, Allah Israel.
43 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
Kemudian Yosua dengan seluruh Israel pulang kembali ke tempat perkemahan di Gilgal.
