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;
哈祚爾王雅一聽見這事，便派人去見瑪冬王，史默龍王，阿革沙夫王，
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:
和住在北方山區，基乃勒特南方平原低地，和西方的多爾高原諸王；
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;
又去見東西各地的客納罕人、阿摩黎人、希威人、培黎齊人，以及住在山區的耶步斯人，和赫爾孟山麓米茲帕地方的赫特人。
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.
他們都帶領自己所有的軍隊和車輛。
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.
這些王子都合一起來，來到默龍水邊紮營，要同以色列人交戰。
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.
上主對若蘇厄說：「在這些人面前，你不要害怕，因為明天這時，我必要使他們全在以色列人面前被殺；你要砍斷他們的馬蹄筋，火燒他們的車輛。」
7 So Joshua, and all the army with him, came in upon them, by the waters of Merom, suddenly, and fell upon them.
若蘇厄遂率領自己的軍民突至默龍水旁，向他們進攻。
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.
上主將他們交在以色列人手中，以色列人擊殺他們，往西直追到大漆冬和米斯勒佛特瑪殷，往東直追到米茲帕山谷，將他們殺得沒有剩下一個。
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.
若蘇厄便照上主指示他的，對待了他們，砍斷了他們的馬碲筋，火燒了他們的車輛。
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.
若蘇厄班師回來時，奪取了哈祚爾，用刀斬了哈祚爾王。──原來哈祚爾以前是這些王國的都城。
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.
又將城內的一切生靈，用刀殺死，完全予以毀滅，沒有留下一個生靈，以後放火燒了哈祚爾城。
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.
若蘇厄奪取了那些王子的一切城邑，生摛那些王子，用刀將他們殺死，將城池完全予以毀滅，全照上主的僕人梅瑟所吩咐的。
13 Yet, none of the cities that were still standing upon their mound, did Israel burn, none but Hazor alone, did Joshua burn.
至於那些處於土丘上的城市，除哈祚爾外，以色列人都沒有焚毀：若蘇厄只燒了哈祚爾。
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.
那些城中所有的財物和牲畜，以色列人都搶了來，歸為己有：所有的人都用刀殺死，完全予以毀滅，沒有留下一個生靈。
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.
上主怎樣吩咐衪的僕人梅瑟，梅瑟也怎樣吩咐了若蘇厄，若蘇厄也就怎樣辦了。凡上主吩咐梅瑟的事，若蘇厄沒有不照辦的。
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:
這樣，若蘇厄佔領了那整個地區：包括山地，整個南方，哥笙全境，平原，阿辣巴原野，以色列山地和附近平原，
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.
由上色依爾去的哈拉克山起，一直到赫爾孟山麓，黎巴嫩山谷間的巴爾加得：各城的王子都被生摛，都被殺死。
18 Many days, did Joshua, with all these kings, make war.
若蘇厄同這些王子交戰，時日頗為長久，
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.
因為除住在基貝紅的希威人外，沒有一座城願與以色列子民媾和，都是以色列人用武力攻取的。
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.
原來這是上主的意思，叫他們心硬，來與以色列人交戰，好使他們遭受無情的毀滅，澈底的破壞，正如上主對梅瑟所吩咐的
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.
以後若蘇厄出兵，消滅了赫貝龍、德彼爾、阿納布山地、猶大山地和以色列山地所有的阿納克人，毀滅了他們和他們所有的城市。
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.
這樣以色列子民境內，沒有剩下一個阿納克人，只在迦薩、加特和阿布多得還有。
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.
若蘇厄佔領了那整個地區，全如上主對梅瑟所說的；若蘇厄遂將這地區按照以色列支派分給他們作產業。以後國內昇平，再無戰事。
