< Joshua 11 >

1 And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard, that he sent unto Jobab king of Madon, and unto the king of Shimron, and unto the king of Achshaph;
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَابِينُ مَلِكُ حَاصُورَ، أَرْسَلَ إِلَى يُوبَابَ مَلِكِ مَادُونَ، وَإِلَى مَلِكِ شِمْرُونَ، وَإِلَى مَلِكِ أَكْشَافَ،١
2 and unto the kings who were on the north in the hill country and in the waste plain south of Chinneroth, and in the lowland, —and in the heights of Dor, on the west:
وَإِلَى ٱلْمُلُوكِ ٱلَّذِينَ إِلَى ٱلشِّمَالِ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَفِي ٱلْعَرَبَةِ جَنُوبِيَّ كِنَّرُوتَ، وَفِي ٱلسَّهْلِ، وَفِي مُرْتَفَعَاتِ دُورَ غَرْبًا،٢
3 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 Mizpah;
ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ فِي ٱلشَّرْقِ وَٱلْغَرْبِ، وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْفِرِزِّيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ تَحْتَ حَرْمُونَ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ.٣
4 and they came out—they, and all their hosts with them, much people, like the sand that is upon the seashore for multitude, —with horses and chariots very many.
فَخَرَجُوا هُمْ وَكُلُّ جُيُوشِهِمْ مَعَهُمْ، شَعْبًا غَفِيرًا كَٱلرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ، بِخَيْلٍ وَمَرْكَبَاتٍ كَثِيرَةٍ جِدًّا.٤
5 And, when all these kings were gathered together, they came in, and encamped as one man, at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
فَٱجْتَمَعَ جَمِيعُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْمُلُوكِ بِمِيعَادٍ وَجَاءُوا وَنَزَلُوا مَعًا عَلَى مِيَاهِ مَيْرُومَ لِكَيْ يُحَارِبُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ.٥
6 Then said Yahweh unto Joshua—Do not fear because of them, for, to-morrow, about this time, am I going to deliver up all of them, slain, before Israel, —their horses, shalt thou ham-string, and, their chariots, shalt thou burn up with fire.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ: «لَا تَخَفْهُمْ، لِأَنِّي غَدًا فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا ٱلْوَقْتِ أَدْفَعُهُمْ جَمِيعًا قَتْلَى أَمَامَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَتُعَرْقِبُ خَيْلَهُمْ، وَتُحْرِقُ مَرْكَبَاتِهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ».٦
7 So Joshua, and all the army with him, came in upon them, by the waters of Merom, suddenly, and fell upon them.
فَجَاءَ يَشُوعُ وَجَمِيعُ رِجَالِ ٱلْحَرْبِ مَعَهُ عَلَيْهِمْ عِنْدَ مِيَاهِ مَيْرُومَ بَغْتَةً وَسَقَطُوا عَلَيْهِمْ.٧
8 And Yahweh delivered them up into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, and chased them as far as great Zidon, and as far as Misrephoth-maim, and as far as the valley of Mizpeh, eastward, —yea they smote them until they left them not a survivor.
فَدَفَعَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ بِيَدِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فَضَرَبُوهُمْ وَطَرَدُوهُمْ إِلَى صِيدُونَ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ، وَإِلَى مِسْرَفُوتَ مَايِمَ، وَإِلَى بُقْعَةِ مِصْفَاةَ شَرْقًا. فَضَرَبُوهُمْ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ لَهُمْ شَارِدٌ.٨
9 And Joshua did unto them, as Yahweh had said unto him, —their horses, he ham-strung, and, their chariots, burned he up with fire.
فَفَعَلَ يَشُوعُ بِهِمْ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. عَرْقَبَ خَيْلَهُمْ، وَأَحْرَقَ مَرْكَبَاتِهِمْ بِٱلنَّارِ.٩
10 Then Joshua turned back, at that time, and captured Hazor, and, the king thereof, smote he with the sword, —for, Hazor, aforetime, was the head of all these kingdoms.
ثُمَّ رَجَعَ يَشُوعُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ وَأَخَذَ حَاصُورَ وَضَرَبَ مَلِكَهَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ، لِأَنَّ حَاصُورَ كَانَتْ قَبْلًا رَأْسَ جَمِيعِ تِلْكَ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ.١٠
11 And they smote all the souls that were therein, with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, there was left no breathing thing, —and, Hazor, burned he up with fire.
وَضَرَبُوا كُلَّ نَفْسٍ بِهَا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. حَرَّمُوهُمْ، وَلَمْ تَبْقَ نَسَمَةٌ، وَأَحْرَقَ حَاصُورَ بِٱلنَّارِ.١١
12 And, all the cities of these kings, and all the kings thereof, did Joshua capture, and he smote them with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, —as Moses, the servant of Yahweh, commanded.
فَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ مُدُنِ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ وَجَمِيعَ مُلُوكِهَا وَضَرَبَهُمْ بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ. حَرَّمَهُمْ كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى عَبْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ.١٢
13 Yet, none of the cities that were still standing upon their mound, did Israel burn, none but Hazor alone, did Joshua burn.
غَيْرَ أَنَّ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلْقَائِمَةَ عَلَى تِلَالِهَا لَمْ يُحْرِقْهَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، مَا عَدَا حَاصُورَ وَحْدَهَا أَحْرَقَهَا يَشُوعُ.١٣
14 But, all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, did the sons of Israel take as their prey, —nevertheless, all the human beings, smote they with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, they left remaining no breathing thing.
وَكُلُّ غَنِيمَةِ تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمَ نَهَبَهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ. وَأَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ فَضَرَبُوهُمْ جَمِيعًا بِحَدِّ ٱلسَّيْفِ حَتَّى أَبَادُوهُمْ. لَمْ يُبْقُوا نَسَمَةً.١٤
15 As Yahweh commanded Moses his servant, so, Moses commanded Joshua, and, so, Joshua, did, he set aside nothing of all that Yahweh commanded Moses.
كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى عَبْدَهُ هَكَذَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى يَشُوعَ، وَهَكَذَا فَعَلَ يَشُوعُ. لَمْ يُهْمِلْ شَيْئًا مِنْ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.١٥
16 So Joshua took all this land—the hill country, and all the south, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowland, and the waste plain, —and the hill country of Israel, and the lowland thereof:
فَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ تِلْكَ ٱلْأَرْضِ: ٱلْجَبَلَ، وَكُلَّ ٱلْجَنُوبِ، وَكُلَّ أَرْضِ جُوشِنَ وَٱلسَّهْلَ وَٱلْعَرَبَةَ وَجَبَلَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسَهْلَهُ،١٦
17 from Mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even as far as Baal-gad, in the valley of the Lebanon, under Mount Hermon, —and, all their kings, he captured, and smote them, and put them to death.
مِنَ ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلْأَقْرَعِ ٱلصَّاعِدِ إِلَى سَعِيرَ إِلَى بَعْلِ جَادَ فِي بُقْعَةِ لُبْنَانَ تَحْتَ جَبَلِ حَرْمُونَ. وَأَخَذَ جَمِيعَ مُلُوكِهَا وَضَرَبَهُمْ وَقَتَلَهُمْ.١٧
18 Many days, did Joshua, with all these kings, make war.
فَعَمِلَ يَشُوعُ حَرْبًا مَعَ أُولَئِكَ ٱلْمُلُوكِ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً.١٨
19 There was not a city that made peace with the sons of Israel, save the Hivites dwelling in Gibeon, —the whole, took they in battle.
لَمْ تَكُنْ مَدِينَةٌ صَالَحَتْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَّا ٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ سُكَّانَ جِبْعُونَ، بَلْ أَخَذُوا ٱلْجَمِيعَ بِٱلْحَرْبِ.١٩
20 For, from Yahweh, came it to pass, that their heart was emboldened to come out to war with Israel, that he might devote them to destruction, that they might find no favour, —but that he might destroy them, —as Yahweh commanded Moses.
لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ أَنْ يُشَدِّدَ قُلُوبَهُمْ حَتَّى يُلَاقُوا إِسْرَائِيلَ لِلْمُحَارَبَةِ فَيُحَرَّمُوا، فَلَا تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ رَأْفَةٌ، بَلْ يُبَادُونَ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.٢٠
21 And Joshua came in, 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, —with their cities, did Joshua devote them to destruction.
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.٢١
22 There was left remaining none of the Anakim, in the land of the sons of Israel, —save only, in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.
فَلَمْ يَتَبَقَّ عَنَاقِيُّونَ فِي أَرْضِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، لَكِنْ بَقَوْا فِي غَزَّةَ وَجَتَّ وَأَشْدُودَ.٢٢
23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that Yahweh had spoken unto Moses, and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel, according to their portions by their tribes, —and, the land, had rest from war.
فَأَخَذَ يَشُوعُ كُلَّ ٱلْأَرْضِ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا كَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى، وَأَعْطَاهَا يَشُوعُ مُلْكًا لِإِسْرَائِيلَ حَسَبَ فِرَقِهِمْ وَأَسْبَاطِهِمْ. وَٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ مِنَ ٱلْحَرْبِ.٢٣
