Joshua 10
1 Now when Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai and had completely destroyed it (just as he had done to Jericho and its king), he also heard how the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them.
耶路撒冷王亞多尼‧洗德聽見約書亞奪了艾城，盡行毀滅，怎樣待耶利哥和耶利哥的王，也照樣待艾城和艾城的王，又聽見基遍的居民與以色列人立了和約，住在他們中間，
2 The people of Jerusalem were very afraid because Gibeon was a large city, like one of the royal cities. It was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty warriors.
就甚懼怕；因為基遍是一座大城，如都城一般，比艾城更大，並且城內的人都是勇士。
3 So Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent a message to Hoham, king of Hebron, to Piram, king of Jarmuth, to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon:
所以耶路撒冷王亞多尼‧洗德打發人去見希伯崙王何咸、耶末王毗蘭、拉吉王雅非亞，和伊磯倫王底璧，說：
4 “Come up to me and help me. Let us attack Gibeon because they have made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel.”
「求你們上來幫助我，我們好攻打基遍，因為他們與約書亞和以色列人立了和約。」
5 The five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon came up, they and all their armies. They set up their positions against Gibeon, and they attacked it.
於是五個亞摩利王，就是耶路撒冷王、希伯崙王、耶末王、拉吉王、伊磯倫王，大家聚集，率領他們的眾軍上去，對着基遍安營，攻打基遍。
6 The people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua and to the army at Gilgal. They said, “Hurry! Do not withdraw your hands from your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us. Help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country have gathered together to attack us.”
基遍人就打發人往吉甲的營中去見約書亞，說：「你不要袖手不顧你的僕人，求你速速上來拯救我們，幫助我們，因為住山地亞摩利人的諸王都聚集攻擊我們。」
7 Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the men of war with him, and all the fighting men.
於是約書亞和他一切兵丁，並大能的勇士，都從吉甲上去。
8 Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them. I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to stop your attack.”
耶和華對約書亞說：「不要怕他們；因為我已將他們交在你手裏，他們無一人能在你面前站立得住。」
9 Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
約書亞就終夜從吉甲上去，猛然臨到他們那裏。
10 Yahweh confused the enemy before Israel, and Israel killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them on the road going up to Beth Horon, and they killed them on the road to Azekah and Makkedah.
耶和華使他們在以色列人面前潰亂。約書亞在基遍大大地殺敗他們，追趕他們，在伯‧和崙的上坡路擊殺他們，直到亞西加和瑪基大。
11 As they ran away from Israel, down the hill from Beth Horon, Yahweh threw large stones down from heaven upon them all the way to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died because of the hailstones than who were killed with the sword by the men of Israel.
他們在以色列人面前逃跑，正在伯‧和崙下坡的時候，耶和華從天上降大冰雹在他們身上，直降到亞西加，打死他們。被冰雹打死的，比以色列人用刀殺死的還多。
12 Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh on the day Yahweh gave the men of Israel victory over the Amorites. This is what Joshua said to Yahweh before Israel, “Sun, be still at Gibeon, and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
當耶和華將亞摩利人交付以色列人的日子，約書亞就禱告耶和華，在以色列人眼前說： 日頭啊，你要停在基遍； 月亮啊，你要止在亞雅崙谷。
13 The sun stood still, and the moon stopped moving until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky; it did not go down for about a whole day.
於是日頭停留，月亮止住， 直等國民向敵人報仇。 這事豈不是寫在雅煞珥書上嗎？日頭在天當中停住，不急速下落，約有一日之久。
14 There has been no other day like it before or after it, when Yahweh obeyed the voice of a human being. For Yahweh was waging war on behalf of Israel.
在這日以前，這日以後，耶和華聽人的禱告，沒有像這日的，是因耶和華為以色列爭戰。
15 Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp at Gilgal.
約書亞和以色列眾人回到吉甲的營中。
16 Now the five kings had escaped and hidden themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
那五王逃跑，藏在瑪基大洞裏。
17 It was told to Joshua, “They have been found!—the five kings hidden in the cave at Makkedah!”
有人告訴約書亞說：「那五王已經找到了，都藏在瑪基大洞裏。」
18 Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and place soldiers there to guard them.
約書亞說：「你們把幾塊大石頭滾到洞口，派人看守，
19 Do not stay yourselves. Pursue your enemies and attack them from the rear. Do not permit them to enter into their cities, because Yahweh your God has given them into your hand.”
你們卻不可耽延，要追趕你們的仇敵，擊殺他們儘後邊的人，不容他們進自己的城邑，因為耶和華－你們的上帝已經把他們交在你們手裏。」
20 Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished slaughtering them with a very great slaughter, until they were almost completely destroyed; only a few survivors who escaped reached the fortified cities.
約書亞和以色列人大大殺敗他們，直到將他們滅盡；其中剩下的人都進了堅固的城。
21 Then the whole army returned in peace to Joshua at the camp at Makkedah. No one dared to say one word against any of the people of Israel.
眾百姓就安然回瑪基大營中，到約書亞那裏。沒有一人敢向以色列人饒舌。
22 Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and out of the cave bring to me these five kings.”
約書亞說：「打開洞口，將那五王從洞裏帶出來，領到我面前。」
23 They did as he said. They brought to him these five kings from the cave—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
眾人就這樣行，將那五王，就是耶路撒冷王、希伯崙王、耶末王、拉吉王、伊磯倫王，從洞裏帶出來，領到約書亞面前。
24 When they brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned every man of Israel. He said to the commanders of the soldiers who had gone into battle with him, “Put your feet on their necks.” So they came up and put their feet on their necks.
帶出那五王到約書亞面前的時候，約書亞就召了以色列眾人來，對那些和他同去的軍長說：「你們近前來，把腳踏在這些王的頸項上。」他們就近前來，把腳踏在這些王的頸項上。
25 Then he said to them, “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed. Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all your enemies you are going to fight.”
約書亞對他們說：「你們不要懼怕，也不要驚惶。應當剛強壯膽，因為耶和華必這樣待你們所要攻打的一切仇敵。」
26 Then Joshua attacked and killed the kings. He hung them on five trees. They hung on the trees until evening.
隨後約書亞將這五王殺死，掛在五棵樹上。他們就在樹上直掛到晚上。
27 When it was sunset, Joshua gave orders, and they took them down from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves. They put large stones over the mouth of the cave. Those stones remain there to this very day.
日頭要落的時候，約書亞一吩咐，人就把屍首從樹上取下來，丟在他們藏過的洞裏，把幾塊大石頭放在洞口，直存到今日。
28 In this way, Joshua captured Makkedah on that day and killed everyone there with the sword, including its king. He completely destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
當日，約書亞奪了瑪基大，用刀擊殺城中的人和王；將其中一切人口盡行殺滅，沒有留下一個。他待瑪基大王，像從前待耶利哥王一樣。
29 Joshua and all Israel passed on from Makkedah to Libnah. He went into battle against Libnah.
約書亞和以色列眾人從瑪基大往立拿去，攻打立拿。
30 Yahweh also gave it into the hand of Israel—along with their king. Joshua struck it with the edge of the sword and every person in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
耶和華將立拿和立拿的王也交在以色列人手裏。約書亞攻打這城，用刀擊殺了城中的一切人口，沒有留下一個。他待立拿王，像從前待耶利哥王一樣。
31 Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Libnah to Lachish. He camped by it and waged war against it.
約書亞和以色列眾人從立拿往拉吉去，對着拉吉安營，攻打這城。
32 Yahweh gave Lachish into the hand of Israel. Joshua captured it on the second day and struck it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it, just as he had done to Libnah.
耶和華將拉吉交在以色列人的手裏。第二天約書亞就奪了拉吉，用刀擊殺了城中的一切人口，是照他向立拿一切所行的。
33 Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish. Joshua attacked him and his army until there was not even one survivor left.
那時基色王荷蘭上來幫助拉吉，約書亞就把他和他的民都擊殺了，沒有留下一個。
34 Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Lachish to Eglon. They camped by it and waged war against it,
約書亞和以色列眾人從拉吉往伊磯倫去，對着伊磯倫安營，攻打這城。
35 and captured it that same day. They struck it with the edge of the sword and they completely destroyed everyone in it, as Joshua had done to Lachish.
當日就奪了城，用刀擊殺了城中的人。那日，約書亞將城中的一切人口盡行殺滅，是照他向拉吉一切所行的。
36 Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Eglon to Hebron. They waged war against it.
約書亞和以色列眾人從伊磯倫上希伯崙去，攻打這城，
37 They captured it and struck it with the edge of the sword, and its king and its villages, and everyone in it. They left no survivor it, as they had done to Eglon, they totally destroyed it and every person in it.
就奪了希伯崙和屬希伯崙的諸城邑，用刀將城中的人與王，並那些城邑中的人口，都擊殺了，沒有留下一個，是照他向伊磯倫所行的，把城中的一切人口盡行殺滅。
38 Then Joshua turned, and all the army of Israel with him, and they passed on to Debir and waged war against it.
約書亞和以色列眾人回到底璧，攻打這城，
39 They captured it, its king and all its nearby villages. They struck them with the edge of the sword and completely destroyed every person in it. They left no survivor. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron.
就奪了底璧和屬底璧的城邑，又擒獲底璧的王，用刀將這些城中的人口盡行殺滅，沒有留下一個。他待底璧和底璧王，像從前待希伯崙和立拿與立拿王一樣。
40 Joshua conquered all the land, the hill country, the Negev, the lowlands, and the foothills. Of all their kings he left not one survivor. He completely destroyed every living thing, just as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had commanded.
這樣，約書亞擊殺全地的人，就是山地、南地、高原、山坡的人，和那些地的諸王，沒有留下一個。將凡有氣息的盡行殺滅，正如耶和華－以色列的上帝所吩咐的。
41 Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen to Gibeon.
約書亞從加低斯‧巴尼亞攻擊到迦薩，又攻擊歌珊全地，直到基遍。
42 Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
約書亞一時殺敗了這些王，並奪了他們的地，因為耶和華－以色列的上帝為以色列爭戰。
43 Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, returned to the camp at Gilgal.
於是約書亞和以色列眾人回到吉甲的營中。
