Iosue 11
1 quae cum audisset Iabin rex Asor misit ad Iobab regem Madon et ad regem Someron atque ad regem Acsaph
When Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,
2 ad reges quoque aquilonis qui habitabant in montanis et in planitie contra meridiem Cheneroth in campestribus quoque et in regionibus Dor iuxta mare
and to the kings who were on the north, in the hill country, in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,
3 Chananeumque ab oriente et occidente et Amorreum atque Hettheum ac Ferezeum et Iebuseum in montanis Eveum quoque qui habitabat ad radices Hermon in terra Masphe
to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, 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 harena quae est in litore maris equi quoque et currus inmensae multitudinis
They went out, they and all their armies with them, many people, even as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with very many horses and chariots.
5 conveneruntque omnes reges isti in unum ad aquas Merom ut pugnarent contra Israhel
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 Israhel equos eorum subnervabis et currus igne conbures
The LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid because of them; for tomorrow at this time, I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”
7 venitque Iosue et omnis exercitus cum eo adversum illos ad aquas Merom subito et inruerunt super eos
So Joshua came suddenly, with all the warriors, against them by the waters of Merom, and attacked them.
8 tradiditque illos Dominus in manu Israhel qui percusserunt eos et persecuti sunt usque ad Sidonem magnam et aquas Maserefoth campumque Masphe qui est ad orientalem illius partem ita percussit omnes ut nullas dimitteret ex eis reliquias
The LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they struck them, and chased them to great Sidon, and to Misrephoth Maim, and to the valley of Mizpah eastward. They struck them until they left them no one remaining.
9 fecit sicut praeceperat ei Dominus equos eorum subnervavit currusque conbusit
Joshua did to them as the LORD told him. He hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.
10 reversusque statim cepit Asor et regem eius percussit gladio Asor enim antiquitus inter omnia regna haec principatum tenebat
Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and struck its king with the sword; for Hazor used to be the head of all those kingdoms.
11 percussitque omnes animas quae ibidem morabantur non dimisit in ea ullas reliquias sed usque ad internicionem universa vastavit ipsamque urbem permisit incendio
They struck all the souls who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was no one left who breathed. He burned Hazor with fire.
12 et omnes per circuitum civitates regesque earum cepit percussit atque delevit sicut praeceperat ei Moses famulus Domini
Joshua captured all the cities of those kings, with their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
13 absque urbibus quae erant in collibus et in tumulis sitae ceteras succendit Israhel unam tantum Asor munitissimam flamma consumpsit
But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, except Hazor only. Joshua burned that.
14 omnemque praedam istarum urbium ac iumenta diviserunt sibi filii Israhel cunctis hominibus interfectis
The children of Israel took all the plunder of these cities, with the livestock, as plunder for themselves; but every man they struck with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They did not leave any who breathed.
15 sicut praeceperat Dominus Mosi servo suo ita praecepit Moses Iosue et ille universa conplevit non praeteriit de universis mandatis ne unum quidem verbum quod iusserat Dominus Mosi
As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua. Joshua did so. He left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
16 cepit itaque Iosue omnem terram montanam et meridianam terramque Gosen et planitiem et occidentalem plagam montemque Israhel et campestria eius
So Joshua captured all that land, the hill country, all the South, all the land of Goshen, the lowland, the Arabah, the hill country of Israel, and the lowland of the same,
17 et partem montis quae ascendit Seir usque Baalgad per planitiem Libani subter montem Hermon omnes reges eorum cepit percussit occidit
from Mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even to Baal Gad in the valley of Lebanon under Mount Hermon. He took all their kings, struck 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 quae se non traderet filiis Israhel praeter Eveum qui habitabat in Gabaon omnes bellando cepit
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took all in battle.
20 Domini enim sententiae fuerat ut indurarentur corda eorum et pugnarent contra Israhel et caderent et non mererentur ullam clementiam ac perirent sicut praeceperat Dominus Mosi
For it was of the LORD 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 the LORD commanded Moses.
21 in tempore illo venit Iosue et interfecit Enacim de montanis Hebron et Dabir et Anab et de omni monte Iuda et Israhel urbesque eorum delevit
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 Israhel absque civitatibus Gaza et Geth et Azoto in quibus solis relicti sunt
There were none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel. Only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.
23 cepit ergo Iosue omnem terram sicut locutus est Dominus ad Mosen et tradidit eam in possessionem filiis Israhel secundum partes et tribus suas quievitque terra a proeliis
So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD spoke to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
