Joshua 11

1 It happened, when Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, that he sent to Jobab king of Maron, to the king of Shim'on, to the king of Achshaph,

١ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَابِينُ مَلِكُ حَاصُورَ، أَرْسَلَ إِلَى يُوبَابَ مَلِكِ مَادُونَ، وَإِلَى مَلِكِ شِمْرُونَ، وَإِلَى مَلِكِ أَكْشَافَ،

2 and to the kings who were on the north, in the hill country, in the Arabah south of Kinnereth, in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,

٢ وَإِلَى ٱلْمُلُوكِ ٱلَّذِينَ إِلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَفِي ٱلْعَرَبَةِ جَنُوبِيَّ كِنَّرُوتَ، وَفِي ٱلسَّهْلِ، وَفِي مُرْتَفَعَاتِ دُورَ غَرْبًا،

3 to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and the Amorite, and the Hethite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the hill country, and the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

٣ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ فِي ٱلشَّرْقِ وَٱلْغَرْبِ، وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ تَحْتَ حَرْمُونَ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ.

4 They went out, they and all their armies with them, many people, even as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with very many horses and chariots.

٤ فَخَرَجُوا هُمْ وَكُلُّ جُيُوشِهِمْ مَعَهُمْ، شَعْبًا غَفِيرًا كَٱلرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ، بِخَيْلٍ وَمَرْكَبَاتٍ كَثِيرَةٍ جِدًّا.

5 All these kings met together; and they came and camped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.

٥ فَٱجْتَمَعَ جَمِيعُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ بِمِيعَادٍ وَجَاءُوا وَنَزَلُوا مَعًا عَلَى مِيَاهِ مَيْرُومَ لِكَيْ يُحَارِبُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ.

6 YHWH said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid because of them; for tomorrow at this time, I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire."

٦ فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ: «لَا تَخَفْهُمْ، لِأَنِّي غَدًا فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا ٱلْوَقْتِ أَدْفَعُهُمْ جَمِيعًا قَتْلَى أَمَامَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتُعَرْقِبُ خَيْلَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُ مَرْكَبَاتِهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ».

7 So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly, and fell on them.

٧ فَجَاءَ يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ مَعَهُ عَلَيْهِمْ عِنْدَ مِيَاهِ مَيْرُومَ بَغْتَةً وَسَقَطُوا عَلَيْهِمْ.

8 YHWH delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they struck them, and chased them to Greater Sidon, and to Misrephoth Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpeh eastward. They struck them until they left them none remaining.

٨ فَدَفَعَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِيَدِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَضَرَبُوهُمْ وَطَرَدُوهُمْ إِلَى صِيدُونَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ، وَإِلَى مِسْرَفُوتَ مَايِمَ، وَإِلَى بُقْعَةِ مِصْفَاةَ شَرْقًا. فَضَرَبُوهُمْ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ لَهُمْ شَارِدٌ.

9 Joshua did to them as YHWH told him. He hamstrung their horses and burnt their chariots with fire.

٩ فَفَعَلَ يَشُوعُ بِهِمْ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. عَرْقَبَ خَيْلَهُمْ، وَأَحْرَقَ مَرْكَبَاتِهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ.

10 Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and struck its king with the sword: for Hazor used to be the head of all those kingdoms.

١٠ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يَشُوعُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ وَأَخَذَ حَاصُورَ وَضَرَبَ مَلِكَهَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ، لِأَنَّ حَاصُورَ كَانَتْ قَبْلًا رَأْسَ جَمِيعِ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ.

11 They struck all the souls who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was no one left who breathed. He burnt Hazor with fire.

١١ وَضَرَبُوا كُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. حَرَّمُوهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَبْقَ نَسَمَةٌ، وَأَحْرَقَ حَاصُورَ بِٱلنَّارِ.

12 Joshua captured all the cities of those kings, with their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them; as Moses the servant of YHWH commanded.

١٢ فَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ مُدُنِ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ وَجَمِيعَ مُلُوكِهَا وَضَرَبَهُمْ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. حَرَّمَهُمْ كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ.

13 But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, except Hazor only. Joshua burned that.

١٣ غَيْرَ أَنَّ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلْقَائِمَةَ عَلَى تِلَالِهَا لَمْ يُحْرِقْهَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، مَا عَدَا حَاصُورَ وَحْدَهَا أَحْرَقَهَا يَشُوعُ.

14 The children of Israel took all the spoil of these cities, with the livestock, as spoils for themselves; but every man they struck with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They did not leave any who breathed.

١٤ وَكُلُّ غَنِيمَةِ تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ نَهَبَهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ. وَأَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ فَضَرَبُوهُمْ جَمِيعًا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ حَتَّى أَبَادُوهُمْ. لَمْ يُبْقُوا نَسَمَةً.

15 As YHWH commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua. Joshua did so. He left nothing undone of all that YHWH commanded Moses.

١٥ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى عَبْدَهُ هَكَذَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى يَشُوعَ، وَهَكَذَا فَعَلَ يَشُوعُ. لَمْ يُهْمِلْ شَيْئًا مِنْ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

16 So Joshua captured all that land, the hill country, all the Negev, all the land of Goshen, the lowland, the Arabah, the hill country of Israel, and the lowland of the same;

١٦ فَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ: ٱلْجَبَلَ، وَكُلَّ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَكُلَّ أَرْضِ جُوشِنَ وَٱلسَّهْلَ وَٱلْعَرَبَةَ وَجَبَلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسَهْلَهُ،

17 from Mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even to Baal Gad in the Valley of Lebanon under Mount Hermon. He took all their kings, struck them, and put them to death.

١٧ مِنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلْأَقْرَعِ ٱلصَّاعِدِ إِلَى سَعِيرَ إِلَى بَعْلِ جَادَ فِي بُقْعَةِ لُبْنَانَ تَحْتَ جَبَلِ حَرْمُونَ. وَأَخَذَ جَمِيعَ مُلُوكِهَا وَضَرَبَهُمْ وَقَتَلَهُمْ.

18 Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

١٨ فَعَمِلَ يَشُوعُ حَرْبًا مَعَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً.

19 There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took all in battle.

١٩ لَمْ تَكُنْ مَدِينَةٌ صَالَحَتْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَّا ٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ سُكَّانَ جِبْعُونَ، بَلْ أَخَذُوا ٱلْجَمِيعَ بِٱلْحَرْبِ.

20 For it was of YHWH to harden their hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them, that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as YHWH commanded Moses.

٢٠ لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ يُشَدِّدَ قُلُوبَهُمْ حَتَّى يُلَاقُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلْمُحَارَبَةِ فَيُحَرَّمُوا، فَلَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ رَأْفَةٌ، بَلْ يُبَادُونَ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

21 Joshua came at that time, and cut 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 utterly destroyed them with their cities.

٢١ وَجَاءَ يَشُوعُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ وَقَرَضَ ٱلْعَنَاقِيِّينَ مِنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ، مِنْ حَبْرُونَ وَمِنْ دَبِيرَ وَمِنْ عَنَابَ، وَمِنْ جَمِيعِ جَبَلِ يَهُوذَا، وَمِنْ كُلِّ جَبَلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. حَرَّمَهُمْ يَشُوعُ مَعَ مُدُنِهِمْ.

22 There were none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel. Only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.

٢٢ فَلَمْ يَتَبَقَّ عَنَاقِيُّونَ فِي أَرْضِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، لَكِنْ بَقَوْا فِي غَزَّةَ وَجَتَّ وَأَشْدُودَ.

23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that YHWH spoke to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. The land had rest from war.

٢٣ فَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا كَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى، وَأَعْطَاهَا يَشُوعُ مُلْكًا لِإِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ فِرَقِهِمْ وَأَسْبَاطِهِمْ. وَٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ مِنَ ٱلْحَرْبِ.
