Iosue 11
1 Quæ cum audisset Iabin rex Asor, misit ad Iobab regem Madon, et ad regem Semeron, atque ad regem Achsaph:
And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 ad reges quoque Aquilonis, qui habitabant in montanis et in planitie contra meridiem Ceneroth, in campestribus quoque et in regionibus Dor iuxta mare:
and to the kings who were on the north, in the hill-country, and in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, and in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,
3 Chananæum quoque ab Oriente et Occidente, et Amorrhæum atque Hethæum ac Pherezæum et Iebusæum in montanis: Hevæum quoque qui habitabat ad radices Hermon in Terra Maspha.
to 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,
4 Egressique sunt omnes cum turmis suis, populus multus nimis sicut arena, quæ est in littore maris, equi quoque et currus immensæ multitudinis.
and they went out, they and all their armies with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea-shore in multitude, with horses and chariots, very many.
5 Conveneruntque omnes reges isti in unum ad Aquas Merom, ut pugnarent contra Israel.
And all these kings met together. And they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
6 Dixitque Dominus ad Iosue: Ne timeas eos: cras enim hac eadem hora ego tradam omnes istos vulnerandos in conspectu Israel: equos eorum subnervabis, et currus igne combures.
And Jehovah said to Joshua, Be not afraid because of them, for tomorrow at this time I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. Thou shall hock their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.
7 Venitque Iosue, et omnis exercitus cum eo adversus illos ad Aquas Merom subito, et irruerunt super eos,
So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly, and fell upon them.
8 tradiditque illos Dominus in manus Israel. Qui percusserunt eos, et persecuti sunt usque ad Sidonem magnam, et Aquas Maserephoth, campumque Masphe, qui est ad Orientalem illius partem. Ita percussit omnes, ut nullas dimitteret ex eis reliquias:
And Jehovah delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, and chased them to great Sidon, and to Misrephoth-maim, and to the valley of Mizpeh eastward. And they smote them until they left them none remaining.
9 fecitque sicut præceperat ei Dominus, equos eorum subnervavit, currusque combussit igni.
And Joshua did to them as Jehovah bade him. He hocked their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 Reversusque statim cepit Asor: et regem eius percussit gladio. Asor enim antiquitus inter omnia regna hæc principatum tenebat.
And Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and smote the king of it with the sword, for Hazor was formerly the head of all those kingdoms.
11 Percussitque omnes animas, quæ ibidem morabantur: non dimisit in ea ullas reliquias, sed usque ad internecionem universa vastavit, ipsamque urbem peremit incendio.
And they smote all the souls who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was none left that breathed, and he burnt Hazor with fire.
12 Et omnes per circuitum civitates, regesque earum cepit, percussit atque delevit, sicut præceperat ei Moyses famulus Domini.
And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, Joshua took, and he smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded.
13 Absque urbibus, quæ erant in collibus, et in tumulis sitæ, ceteras succendit Israel: unam tantum Asor munitissimam flamma consumpsit.
But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, except only Hazor. Joshua burned that.
14 Omnemque prædam istarum urbium ac iumenta diviserunt sibi filii Israel, cunctis hominibus interfectis.
And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the sons of Israel took for a prey to themselves, but every man they smote with the edge of the sword until they had destroyed them, neither did they leave any who breathed.
15 Sicut præceperat Dominus Moysi servo suo, ita præcepit Moyses Iosue, et ille universa complevit: non præteriit de universis mandatis, nec unum quidem verbum quod iusserat Dominus Moysi.
As Jehovah commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone of all that Jehovah commanded Moses.
16 Cepit itaque Iosue omnem Terram montanam, et meridianam, terramque Gosen, et planitiem, et Occidentalem plagam, montemque Israel, et campestria eius:
So Joshua took all that land, the hill-country, and all the South, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowland, and the Arabah, and the hill-country of Israel, and the lowland of the same,
17 et partem montis, quæ ascendit Seir usque Baalgad per planitiem Libani subter montem Hermon: omnes reges eorum cepit, percussit, et occidit.
from mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even to Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon. And he took all their kings, and smote them, and put them to death.
18 Multo tempore pugnavit Iosue contra reges istos.
Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
19 Non fuit civitas quæ se traderet filiis Israel, præter Hevæum, qui habitabat in Gabaon: omnes enim bellando cepit.
There was not a city that made peace with the sons of Israel, except the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took all in battle.
20 Domini enim sententia fuerat, ut indurarentur corda eorum, et pugnarent contra Israel, et caderent, et non mererentur ullam clementiam, ac perirent, sicut præceperat Dominus Moysi.
For it was of Jehovah 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 Jehovah commanded Moses.
21 In illo tempore venit Iosue, et interfecit Enacim de montanis, Hebron, et Dabir, et Anab, et de omni monte Iuda et Israel, urbesque eorum delevit.
And 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.
22 Non reliquit ullum de stirpe Enacim, in Terra filiorum Israel: absque civitatibus Gaza, et Geth, et Azoto, in quibus solis relicti sunt.
There was none of the Anakim left in the land of the sons of Israel. Only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod some remained.
23 Cepit ergo Iosue omnem Terram, sicut locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, et tradidit eam in possessionem filiis Israel secundum partes et tribus suas. Quievitque Terra a præliis.
So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that Jehovah spoke to Moses. And Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land had rest from war.
