< Joshua 11 >
1 When King Jabin of Hazor [city] heard [about all those things that had happened], he sent messages to Jobab, the king of Madon [city], to the king of Shimron [city], and to the king of Acshaph [city], [requesting them to send their armies to come and help him fight against the Israelis].
Ketika Raja Yabin dari Hazor mendengar tentang kemenangan-kemenangan Israel, ia mengutus orang kepada Raja Yobab dari kota Madon, kepada raja-raja kota Simron dan Akhsaf,
2 He also sent messages to the kings in the northern hilly area and to the kings in the Jordan [River] Valley, south of Galilee [Lake] and in the western hills. He sent a message to the king of Naphoth-Dor [in the west]
kepada raja-raja di pegunungan sebelah utara, di Lembah Yordan sebelah selatan Galilea, di daerah kaki pegunungan, dan di daerah pesisir dekat Dor.
3 and to the kings of the Canaan people-group in the eastern and western parts of the land. He sent messages to the Amor people-group and the Heth people-group and the Periz people-group and the Jebus people-group who lived in the hilly area. He also sent a message to the Hiv people-group who lived below Hermon [Mountain] in the Mizpah area.
Ia juga mengutus orang kepada orang Kanaan di sebelah barat dan sebelah timur Yordan, kepada orang Amori, Het, Feris, dan orang Yebus di daerah pegunungan, serta orang Hewi di kaki Gunung Hermon di daerah Mizpa.
4 So the armies of all those kings gathered together, bringing their horses and chariots. [There seemed to be] [HYP] as many soldiers as grains of sand on the seashore.
Maka datanglah raja-raja itu dengan semua tentara mereka yang sangat banyak seperti pasir di pantai. Kuda dan kereta perang mereka pun banyak sekali.
5 All of those kings [and their armies] gathered together at Merom Pond, [and they set up their tents there]. Then they made plans to fight against the Israelis.
Semua raja-raja itu bergabung dan bersama-sama datang bermarkas di dekat anak Sungai Merom untuk menyerang Israel.
6 Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, because at this time tomorrow I will enable your men to defeat them. Your men must also cripple their horses and burn their chariots.”
TUHAN berkata kepada Yosua, "Jangan takut kepada mereka. Pada saat seperti ini besok, mereka semuanya sudah Kubunuh demi Israel. Kuda mereka harus kaulumpuhkan, dan kereta-kereta perang mereka harus kaubakar."
7 So Joshua and his army traveled to Merom Pond and attacked their enemies (by surprise/before they were ready to fight).
Maka Yosua dengan semua tentaranya menyerang musuh itu secara mendadak dekat anak Sungai Merom.
8 Yahweh enabled the Israelis to defeat them. They pursued them to Sidon [city in the far north], and to Misrephoth-Maim [in the northwest], and to Mizpah Valley in the northeast. The Israelis fought them until (they were all dead/there were no survivors).
Dan TUHAN membuat umat Israel menang atas mereka. Orang Israel menyerang dan mengejar mereka sampai sejauh Misrefot-Maim dan Sidon di sebelah utara, dan sejauh Lembah Mizpa di sebelah timur. Pertempuran terus berkobar sampai tidak seorang pun dari musuh yang tersisa--semuanya mati.
9 Then Joshua and his men did what Yahweh told them to do: They crippled their enemies’ horses and burned their chariots.
Yosua melakukan terhadap mereka sesuai dengan apa yang telah diperintahkan oleh TUHAN: ia melumpuhkan kuda mereka, dan membakar kereta-kereta perang mereka.
10 The king of Hazor had ruled the people of all the kingdoms whose armies had fought against the Israelis. So Joshua’s army went back to Hazor and captured that city and killed their king.
Sesudah Yosua kembali, lalu merebut Hazor yang pada waktu itu adalah yang terkuat di antara semua kerajaan di situ. Kota itu dibakar, serta raja dan seluruh penduduknya dibunuh; tidak seorang pun dibiarkan hidup.
11 They killed everyone in Hazor; (they did not spare anyone/no one was left alive) [DOU]. Then they burned the city.
12 Joshua’s army captured all of those cities and killed all of their kings. They did that like Moses, the man who served Yahweh [well], had commanded them to do.
Semua kota-kota itu direbut oleh Yosua, dan raja-rajanya ditangkap dan dibunuh sesuai dengan perintah Musa, hamba TUHAN itu.
13 Joshua’s men burned Hazor [city], but they did not burn any of the other cities that were built on small hills.
Tetapi kota-kota yang didirikan di atas bukit-bukit puing, tidak satu pun yang dibakar oleh orang Israel, kecuali Hazor yang dibakar oleh Yosua sendiri.
14 The Israelis took for themselves the animals that they found in those cities and everything else [that was valuable] [DOU]. But they killed all the people.
Semua penduduk kota-kota itu dibunuh; tidak seorang pun yang dibiarkan hidup. Tetapi semua barang-barangnya yang berharga dan ternaknya diambil oleh orang Israel menjadi milik mereka.
15 [Many years before], Yahweh had told Moses to do that, and then Moses told Joshua to do it. So Joshua did everything that Yahweh had commanded Moses to do.
Semua yang diperintahkan TUHAN kepada Musa, hamba-Nya, telah disampaikan oleh Musa kepada Yosua, dan dilaksanakan oleh Yosua; tidak satu pun yang tidak dilaksanakannya.
16 Joshua’s [army] defeated all the people who were living in that land. They took control over the hilly area and the area in the southern part of Canaan, all the area of Goshen, the western foothills, and the Jordan [River] Valley. They took control over all the mountains in Israel and all the hills near the mountains.
Yosua merebut seluruh negeri itu--daerah pegunungan, daerah kaki gunung, baik yang di utara maupun yang di selatan; juga seluruh wilayah Gosyen dan daerah padang gersang di sebelah selatan Gosyen, serta Lembah Yordan.
17 They took control of all the land from Halak Mountain [in the south] up to the Seir [hilly area] as far as Baal-Gaal in Lebanon Valley [in the north], at the bottom of Hermon Mountain. They captured all the kings of those areas and killed them.
Luas daerah itu mulai dari Pegunungan Gundul di sebelah selatan dekat Edom, sampai ke utara sejauh Baal-Gad di Lembah Libanon sebelah selatan Gunung Hermon. Lama sekali Yosua berperang dengan raja-raja daerah itu, tetapi akhirnya ia menangkap dan membunuh mereka semua.
18 Joshua’s men fought against those groups for many years.
19 There was only one group that made a peace agreement with the Israelis; they were the people of the Hiv people-group who lived in Gibeon. The Israelis captured all the other towns in battles.
Dari semua kota-kota di seluruh daerah itu, tidak ada satu kota pun yang membuat perjanjian persahabatan dengan Israel, kecuali Gibeon, kota bangsa Hewi. Semua kota yang lain dikalahkan dalam pertempuran.
20 Yahweh caused the people in all those other groups to be stubborn [IDM], with the result that they fought against the Israeli army, and the Israelis killed them all. They were not merciful to any of them. That is what Yahweh had commanded Moses to do.
TUHAN membuat mereka berkeras hati untuk berperang dengan orang Israel, supaya mereka dimusnahkan, dan dibunuh semua tanpa ampun sesuai dengan perintah TUHAN kepada Musa.
21 Joshua’s army also fought the Anak people-group who lived in the hills near Hebron, Debir, and Anah [cities]. They also fought against the people who lived in the hilly area of Judah and Israel, and they killed all of those people and destroyed their cities.
Pada masa ini pula Yosua pergi memusnahkan bangsa Enak, yaitu bangsa raksasa yang tinggal di daerah pegunungan--di Hebron, Debir, Anab, dan di seluruh daerah pegunungan Yehuda dan Israel. Mereka semuanya dibunuh oleh Yosua, dan kota-kota mereka dimusnahkan.
22 As a result, there were no descendants of Anak who remained alive in Israel. Only a few remained alive in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod [cities].
Tidak seorang pun dari bangsa Enak itu yang tersisa di daerah Israel, hanya di Gaza, Gat, dan Asdod masih ada.
23 Joshua’s army took control of all the land, just as Yahweh [long ago] had told Moses to do. Yahweh gave the land to the Israelis, because he had promised to give it to them. Then Joshua divided the land among the Israeli tribes. After that, there was (peace/no more battles) in the land.
Seluruh negeri itu direbut oleh Yosua sesuai dengan perintah TUHAN kepada Musa, lalu diberikan kepada bangsa Israel menjadi milik mereka. Negeri itu dibagi-bagi, dan setiap suku mendapat satu bagian. Bangsa Israel pun berhenti berperang dan negerinya aman sentosa.
