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;
| فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَدُونِي صَادَقَ مَلِكُ أُورُشَلِيمَ أَنَّ يَشُوعَ قَدْ أَخَذَ عَايَ وَحَرَّمَهَا. كَمَا فَعَلَ بِأَرِيحَا وَمَلِكِهَا فَعَلَ بِعَايٍ وَمَلِكِهَا، وَأَنَّ سُكَّانَ جِبْعُونَ قَدْ صَالَحُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ وَكَانُوا فِي وَسَطِهِمْ، | ١ |
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.
| خَافَ جِدًّا، لِأَنَّ جِبْعُونَ مَدِينَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ كَإِحْدَى ٱلْمُدُنِ ٱلْمَلَكِيَّةِ، وَهِيَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ عَايٍ، وَكُلُّ رِجَالِهَا جَبَابِرَةٌ. | ٢ |
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,
| فَأَرْسَلَ أَدُونِي صَادَقَ مَلِكُ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى هُوهَامَ مَلِكِ حَبْرُونَ، وَفِرْآمَ مَلِكِ يَرْمُوتَ، وَيَافِيعَ مَلِكِ لَخِيشَ، وَدَبِيرَ مَلِكِ عَجْلُونَ يَقُولُ: | ٣ |
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."
| «ٱصْعَدُوا إِلَيَّ وَأَعِينُونِي، فَنَضْرِبَ جِبْعُونَ لِأَنَّهَا صَالَحَتْ يَشُوعَ وَبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ». | ٤ |
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.
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ مُلُوكُ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلْخَمْسَةُ: مَلِكُ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَمَلِكُ حَبْرُونَ، وَمَلِكُ يَرْمُوتَ، وَمَلِكُ لَخِيشَ، وَمَلِكُ عَجْلُونَ، وَصَعِدُوا هُمْ وَكُلُّ جُيُوشِهِمْ وَنَزَلُوا عَلَى جِبْعُونَ وَحَارَبُوهَا. | ٥ |
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."
| فَأَرْسَلَ أَهْلُ جِبْعُونَ إِلَى يَشُوعَ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ فِي ٱلْجِلْجَالِ يَقُولُونَ: «لَا تُرْخِ يَدَيْكَ عَنْ عَبِيدِكَ. ٱصْعَدْ إِلَيْنَا عَاجِلًا وَخَلِّصْنَا وَأَعِنَّا، لِأَنَّهُ قَدِ ٱجْتَمَعَ عَلَيْنَا جَمِيعُ مُلُوكِ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ». | ٦ |
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
| فَصَعِدَ يَشُوعُ مِنَ ٱلْجِلْجَالِ هُوَ وَجَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ مَعَهُ وَكُلُّ جَبَابِرَةِ ٱلْبَأْسِ. | ٧ |
8 YHWH said to Joshua, "Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. Not a man of them will stand before you."
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ: «لَا تَخَفْهُمْ، لِأَنِّي بِيَدِكَ قَدْ أَسْلَمْتُهُمْ. لَا يَقِفُ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ بِوَجْهِكَ». | ٨ |
9 Joshua therefore came on them suddenly. He went up from Gilgal all night.
| فَأَتَى إِلَيْهِمْ يَشُوعُ بَغْتَةً. صَعِدَ ٱللَّيْلَ كُلَّهُ مِنَ ٱلْجِلْجَالِ. | ٩ |
10 YHWH 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.
| فَأَزْعَجَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ أَمَامَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَضَرَبَهُمْ ضَرْبَةً عَظِيمَةً فِي جِبْعُونَ، وَطَرَدَهُمْ فِي طَرِيقِ عَقَبَةِ بَيْتِ حُورُونَ، وَضَرَبَهُمْ إِلَى عَزِيقَةَ وَإِلَى مَقِّيدَةَ. | ١٠ |
11 And it happened, as they fled from before the children of Israel while they were at the descent of Beth Horon, that YHWH 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.
| وَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ هَارِبُونَ مِنْ أَمَامِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَهُمْ فِي مُنْحَدَرِ بَيْتِ حُورُونَ، رَمَاهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِحِجَارَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ إِلَى عَزِيقَةَ فَمَاتُوا. وَٱلَّذِينَ مَاتُوا بِحِجَارَةِ ٱلْبَرَدِ هُمْ أَكْثَرُ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَتَلَهُمْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. | ١١ |
12 Then Joshua spoke to YHWH in the day when YHWH 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."
| حِينَئِذٍ كَلَّمَ يَشُوعُ ٱلرَّبَّ، يَوْمَ أَسْلَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ أَمَامَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَقَالَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «يَا شَمْسُ دُومِي عَلَى جِبْعُونَ، وَيَا قَمَرُ عَلَى وَادِي أَيَّلُونَ». | ١٢ |
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.
| فَدَامَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ وَوَقَفَ ٱلْقَمَرُ حَتَّى ٱنْتَقَمَ ٱلشَّعْبُ مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ. أَلَيْسَ هَذَا مَكْتُوبًا فِي سِفْرِ يَاشَرَ؟ فَوَقَفَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ فِي كَبِدِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَلَمْ تَعْجَلْ لِلْغُرُوبِ نَحْوَ يَوْمٍ كَامِلٍ. | ١٣ |
14 There was no day like that before it or after it, that YHWH listened to the voice of a man; for YHWH fought for Israel.
| وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَبْلَهُ وَلَا بَعْدَهُ سَمِعَ فِيهِ ٱلرَّبُّ صَوْتَ إِنْسَانٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ حَارَبَ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٤ |
15 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ فِي ٱلْجِلْجَالِ. | ١٥ |
16 These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
| فَهَرَبَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْخَمْسَةُ ٱلْمُلُوكِ وَٱخْتَبَأُوا فِي مَغَارَةٍ فِي مَقِّيدَةَ. | ١٦ |
17 Joshua was told, saying, "The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah."
| فَأُخْبِرَ يَشُوعُ وَقيِلَ لَهُ: «قَدْ وُجِدَ ٱلْمُلُوكُ ٱلْخَمْسَةُ مُخْتَبِئِينَ فِي مَغَارَةٍ فِي مَقِّيدَةَ». | ١٧ |
18 Joshua said, "Roll large stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to guard them;
| فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ: «دَحْرِجُوا حِجَارَةً عَظِيمَةً عَلَى فَمِ ٱلْمَغَارَةِ، وَأَقِيمُوا عَلَيْهَا رِجَالًا لِأَجْلِ حِفْظِهِمْ. | ١٨ |
19 but do not stay. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Do not allow them to enter into their cities; for YHWH your God has delivered them into your hand."
| وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَلَا تَقِفُوا، بَلِ ٱسْعَوْا وَرَاءَ أَعْدَائِكُمْ وَٱضْرِبُوا مُؤَخَّرَهُمْ. لَا تَدَعُوهُمْ يَدْخُلُونَ مُدُنَهُمْ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ قَدْ أَسْلَمَهُمْ بِيَدِكُمْ». | ١٩ |
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,
| وَلَمَّا ٱنْتَهَى يَشُوعُ وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ ضَرْبِهِمْ ضَرْبَةً عَظِيمَةً جِدًّا حَتَّى فَنُوا، وَٱلشَّرَدُ ٱلَّذِينَ شَرَدُوا مِنْهُمْ دَخَلُوا ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلْمُحَصَّنَةَ. | ٢٠ |
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.
| رَجَعَ جَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ إِلَى يَشُوعَ فِي مَقِّيدَةَ بِسَلَامٍ. لَمْ يَسُنَّ أَحَدٌ لِسَانَهُ عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٢١ |
22 Then Joshua said, "Open the mouth of the cave, and bring those five kings out of the cave to me."
| فَقَالَ يَشُوعُ: «ٱفْتَحُوا فَمَ ٱلْمَغَارَةِ وَأَخْرِجُوا إِلَيَّ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْخَمْسَةَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ مِنَ ٱلْمَغَارَةِ». | ٢٢ |
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.
| فَفَعَلُوا كَذَلِكَ، وَأَخْرَجُوا إِلَيْهِ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكَ ٱلْخَمْسَةَ مِنَ ٱلْمَغَارَةِ: مَلِكَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَمَلِكَ حَبْرُونَ، وَمَلِكَ يَرْمُوتَ، وَمَلِكَ لَخِيشَ، وَمَلِكَ عَجْلُونَ. | ٢٣ |
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.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا أَخْرَجُوا أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكَ إِلَى يَشُوعَ أَنَّ يَشُوعَ دَعَا كُلَّ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَقَالَ لِقُوَّادِ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَارُوا مَعَهُ: «تَقَدَّمُوا وَضَعُوا أَرْجُلَكُمْ عَلَى أَعْنَاقِ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ». فَتَقَدَّمُوا وَوَضَعُوا أَرْجُلَهُمْ عَلَى أَعْنَاقِهِمْ. | ٢٤ |
25 Joshua said to them, "Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed. Be strong and of good courage, for YHWH will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight."
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَشُوعُ: «لَا تَخَافُوا وَلَا تَرْتَعِبُوا. تَشَدَّدُوا وَتَشَجَّعُوا. لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا يَفْعَلُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِجَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ تُحَارِبُونَهُمْ». | ٢٥ |
26 Afterward Joshua struck them, put them to death, and hanged them on five trees. They were hanging on the trees until the evening.
| وَضَرَبَهُمْ يَشُوعُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَقَتَلَهُمْ وَعَلَّقَهُمْ عَلَى خَمْسِ خَشَبٍ، وَبَقُوا مُعَلَّقِينَ عَلَى ٱلْخَشَبِ حَتَّى ٱلْمَسَاءِ. | ٢٦ |
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.
| وَكَانَ عِنْدَ غُرُوبِ ٱلشَّمْسِ أَنَّ يَشُوعَ أَمَرَ فَأَنْزَلُوهُمْ عَنِ ٱلْخَشَبِ وَطَرَحُوهُمْ فِي ٱلْمَغَارَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَبَأُوا فِيهَا، وَوَضَعُوا حِجَارَةً كَبِيرَةً عَلَى فَمِ ٱلْمَغَارةِ حَتَّى إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ. | ٢٧ |
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.
| وَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ مَقِّيدَةَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَضَرَبَهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَحَرَّمَ مَلِكَهَا هُوَ وَكُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا. لَمْ يُبْقِ شَارِدًا، وَفَعَلَ بِمَلِكِ مَقِّيدَةَ كَمَا فَعَلَ بِمَلِكِ أَرِيحَا. | ٢٨ |
29 Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
| ثُمَّ ٱجْتَازَ يَشُوعُ مِنْ مَقِّيدَةَ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى لِبْنَةَ، وَحَارَبَ لِبْنَةَ. | ٢٩ |
30 YHWH 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.
| فَدَفَعَهَا ٱلرَّبُّ هِيَ أَيْضًا بِيَدِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَ مَلِكِهَا، فَضَرَبَهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَكُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا. لَمْ يُبْقِ بِهَا شَارِدًا، وَفَعَلَ بِمَلِكِهَا كَمَا فَعَلَ بِمَلِكِ أَرِيحَا. | ٣٠ |
31 Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and camped against it, and fought against it.
| ثُمَّ ٱجْتَازَ يَشُوعُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ مِنْ لِبْنَةَ إِلَى لَخِيشَ وَنَزَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَحَارَبَهَا. | ٣١ |
32 YHWH 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.
| فَدَفَعَ ٱلرَّبُّ لَخِيشَ بِيَدِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَأَخَذَهَا فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّانِي وَضَرَبَهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَكُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ بِلِبْنَةَ. | ٣٢ |
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.
| حِينَئِذٍ صَعِدَ هُورَامُ مَلِكُ جَازَرَ لِإِعَانَةِ لَخِيشَ، وَضَرَبَهُ يَشُوعُ مَعَ شَعْبِهِ حَتَّى لَمْ يُبْقِ لَهُ شَارِدًا. | ٣٣ |
34 Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, to Eglon; and they camped against it fought against it.
| ثُمَّ ٱجْتَازَ يَشُوعُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ مِنْ لَخِيشَ إِلَى عَجْلُونَ فَنَزَلُوا عَلَيْهَا وَحَارَبُوهَا، | ٣٤ |
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.
| وَأَخَذُوهَا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ وَضَرَبُوهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ، وَحَرَّمَ كُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ بِلَخِيشَ. | ٣٥ |
36 Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it.
| ثُمَّ صَعِدَ يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ مِنْ عَجْلُونَ إِلَى حَبْرُونَ وَحَارَبُوهَا، | ٣٦ |
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.
| وَأَخَذُوهَا وَضَرَبُوهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ مَعَ مَلِكِهَا وَكُلِّ مُدُنِهَا وَكُلِّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا. لَمْ يُبْقِ شَارِدًا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا فَعَلَ بِعَجْلُونَ، فَحَرَّمَهَا وَكُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا. | ٣٧ |
38 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يَشُوعُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى دَبِيرَ وَحَارَبَهَا، | ٣٨ |
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.
| وَأَخَذَهَا مَعَ مَلِكِهَا وَكُلِّ مُدُنِهَا، وَضَرَبُوهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَحَرَّمُوا كُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا. لَمْ يُبْقِ شَارِدًا، كَمَا فَعَلَ بِحَبْرُونَ كَذَلِكَ فَعَلَ بِدَبِيرَ وَمَلِكِهَا، وَكَمَا فَعَلَ بِلِبْنَةَ وَمَلِكِهَا. | ٣٩ |
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 YHWH, the God of Israel, commanded.
| فَضَرَبَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ أَرْضِ ٱلْجَبَلِ وَٱلْجَنُوبِ وَٱلسَّهْلِ وَٱلسُّفُوحِ وَكُلَّ مُلُوكِهَا. لَمْ يُبْقِ شَارِدًا، بَلْ حَرَّمَ كُلَّ نَسَمَةٍ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤٠ |
41 And Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and the entire region of Goshen as far as Gibeon.
| فَضَرَبَهُمْ يَشُوعُ مِنْ قَادَشَ بَرْنِيعَ إِلَى غَزَّةَ وَجَمِيعَ أَرْضِ جُوشِنَ إِلَى جِبْعُونَ. | ٤١ |
42 Joshua took all these kings and their land at one time, because YHWH, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
| وَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ جَمِيعَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ وَأَرْضِهِمْ دُفْعَةً وَاحِدَةً، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ حَارَبَ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٤٢ |
43 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ إِلَى ٱلْجِلْجَالِ. | ٤٣ |
