Chinese New Version (Traditional)
五王聯合攻打基遍
10 耶路撒冷王亞多尼．洗德聽見約書亞佔領了艾城，把城完全毀滅，約書亞怎樣對待耶利哥和耶利哥的王，也照樣對待艾城和艾城的王；又聽見基遍的居民已經與以色列人議和，並可以住在這地， 2 他們就非常懼怕。因為基遍是大城，好像一座王城；又因為基遍比艾城大，城裡所有的人都是勇士。 3 因此，耶路撒冷王亞多尼．洗德派人到希伯崙王何咸、耶末王毘蘭、拉吉王雅非亞和伊磯倫王底璧那裡去，對他們說： 4 “求你們上我這裡來幫助我，我們好攻打基遍，因為基遍已經與約書亞和以色列人議和了。” 5 於是亞摩利人的那五個王，就是耶路撒冷王、希伯崙王、耶末王、拉吉王和伊磯倫王，聯合起來，帶著他們所有的軍隊上去，在基遍的對面安營，攻打基遍。
約書亞擊敗五王
6 基遍人就派人到吉甲營中約書亞那裡去，說：“不可丟棄你的僕人，求你快快上我們這裡來拯救我們、幫助我們；因為住在山地的亞摩利人所有的王都集合起來攻擊我們。” 7 於是約書亞和所有能作戰的人，以及所有英勇的戰士，都一起從吉甲上去。 8 耶和華對約書亞說：“你不要怕他們，因為我已經把他們交在你手裡了；他們必沒有一人能在你面前站立得住。” 9 於是約書亞乘夜從吉甲上去，突然來到他們那裡。 10 耶和華使他們在以色列人面前潰亂，約書亞在基遍大大地擊殺他們，沿著伯．和崙的上坡路追趕他們，擊打他們，直到亞西加和瑪基大。 11 他們從以色列人面前逃跑，正在下伯．和崙斜坡的時候，耶和華從天上降大冰雹在他們身上，一直到亞西加，打死他們；被冰雹打死的，比以色列人用刀殺死的還多。
日月停止
12 那時，就是耶和華把亞摩利人交給以色列人的時候，約書亞在以色列人面前對耶和華說：
“太陽啊，停在基遍；
月亮啊，停在亞雅崙谷。”
13 於是太陽停住，月亮站住，直到以色列人在仇敵的身上報了仇。這事不是寫在《雅煞珥書》上嗎？太陽在天空中站住，不急速下落，約有一整天。 14 在這日以前或這日以後，耶和華聽人的禱告，沒有像這日一樣的，因為耶和華為以色列作戰。 15 後來，約書亞和眾以色列人回到吉甲營那裡去。
生擒五王就地正法
16 那五個王逃跑了，躲藏在瑪基大洞裡。 17 有人告訴約書亞，說：“那五個王已經找到了，都躲藏在瑪基大洞裡。” 18 約書亞說：“你們把幾塊大石頭輥到洞口那裡去，並派人到洞口去看守他們。 19 你們卻不可站著，要追趕你們的仇敵，從後面擊殺他們，不可讓他們逃進自己的城中，因為耶和華你們的 神已經把他們交在你們的手裡了。” 20 約書亞和以色列人把他們殺得慘敗，直到把他們滅絕為止，那些逃脫的人都逃進設防的城裡； 21 眾以色列人都平平安安回到瑪基大營中約書亞那裡。沒有人敢說話攻擊以色列人。
22 約書亞說：“你們打開洞口，把那五個王從洞裡拉出來，帶到我這裡來。” 23 眾人就照著執行，他們把那五個王，就是耶路撒冷王、希伯崙王、耶末王、拉吉王和伊磯倫王，從洞裡拉出來，帶到約書亞那裡去。 24 眾人把那五個王帶到約書亞那裡去的時候，約書亞把所有的以色列人都召了來，對那些與他同去作戰的軍長說：“你們走前來，把腳踏在這些王的頸項上。”他們就走前來，把腳踏在那些王的頸項上。 25 約書亞對他們說：“你們不要懼怕，不要驚慌；總要堅強勇敢，因為耶和華必這樣對待你們要攻打的所有仇敵。” 26 隨後，約書亞把那五個王殺死，懸在五棵樹上；他們就懸在樹上，直到晚上。 27 到了日落的時候，約書亞吩咐人把他們從樹上取下來，丟在他們躲藏過的洞裡，把幾塊大石頭放在洞口；這些石頭一直存到今日。
約書亞攻取南部各城
28 在那天，約書亞佔領了瑪基大，用刀擊殺了那城的人和那城的王，把城中所有的人完全毀滅，不容一人逃脫；他對待瑪基大王就像對待耶利哥王一樣。
29 約書亞和跟他在一起的眾以色列人從瑪基大往立拿去，攻打立拿。 30 耶和華把立拿和立拿的王也交在以色列人手裡，約書亞用刀攻擊那城，殺了城裡所有的人，不容一人逃脫；他對待立拿王就像對待耶利哥王一樣。
31 約書亞和跟他在一起的眾以色列人從立拿往拉吉去，對著拉吉安營，攻打這城。 32 耶和華把拉吉交在以色列人手裡，第二天約書亞就佔領了拉吉，用刀攻擊那城，殺了城中所有的人，跟他對立拿所行的一切一樣。
33 那時，基色王荷蘭上來幫助拉吉，約書亞就把他和他的人民都擊殺了，沒有留下一人。
34 約書亞和與他在一起的眾以色列人從拉吉往伊磯倫去，對著伊磯倫安營，攻打這城。 35 那一天，他們佔領了這城，用刀攻擊那城，殺了城中所有的人；那一天約書亞把他們完全毀滅，跟他對拉吉所行的一切一樣。
36 約書亞和與他在一起的眾以色列人從伊磯倫上希伯崙去，攻打這城。 37 他們佔領了這城，用刀攻擊這城，殺了這城的王，又攻擊屬於這城的城鎮，殺了城中所有的人，不容一人逃脫，跟他對伊磯倫所行的一切一樣，把這城和城中所有的人完全毀滅。
38 約書亞和與他在一起的眾以色列人回到了底璧，攻打這城。 39 約書亞佔領了這城，抓住這城的王，又佔領了屬於這城的一切城鎮；以色列人用刀擊殺他們，把城中所有的人都毀滅了；約書亞不容一人逃脫，他怎樣對待希伯崙，也照樣對待底璧和底璧的王；也好像他對待立拿和立拿的王一樣。
40 這樣，約書亞擊殺了全地的人，就是山地、南地、高原和山坡的人，以及那些地方所有的王，不容一人逃脫；約書亞照著耶和華以色列的 神的吩咐，把有氣息的都完全毀滅了。 41 約書亞從加低斯．巴尼亞擊殺他們，直到迦薩，又從歌珊全地擊殺他們，直到基遍。 42 約書亞在這一次戰役中擊敗了這些王和佔領了他們的地，是因為耶和華以色列的 神為以色列作戰。 43 於是約書亞和與他在一起的眾以色列人回到吉甲營中。

The Day the Sun Stood Still
10 Now King Adoni-zedek of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured Ai and completely destroyed(A) it, treating Ai and its king as he had Jericho and its king, and that the inhabitants of Gibeon(B) had made peace with Israel and were living among them.(C) 2 So Adoni-zedek and his people were[a] greatly alarmed because Gibeon was a large city like one of the royal cities;(D) it was larger than Ai, and all its men were warriors. 3 Therefore King Adoni-zedek of Jerusalem sent word to King Hoham of Hebron, King Piram of Jarmuth, King Japhia of Lachish, and King Debir of Eglon, saying, 4 “Come up and help me. We will attack Gibeon, because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.” 5 So the five Amorite kings—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon—joined forces, advanced with all their armies, besieged Gibeon, and fought against it.
6 Then the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: “Don’t give up on your servants. Come quickly and save us! Help us, for all the Amorite kings living in the hill country have joined forces against us.” 7 So Joshua and all his troops, including all his best soldiers, came from Gilgal.(E)
8 The Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them,(F) for I have handed them over to you.(G) Not one of them will be able to stand against you.”(H)
9 So Joshua caught them by surprise, after marching all night from Gilgal. 10 The Lord threw them into confusion(I) before Israel. He defeated them in a great slaughter at Gibeon, chased them through the ascent of Beth-horon, and struck them down as far as Azekah and Makkedah. 11 As they fled before Israel, the Lord threw large hailstones on them(J) from the sky along the descent of Beth-horon all the way to Azekah, and they died. More of them died from the hail than the Israelites killed with the sword.
12 On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to the Israelites, Joshua spoke to the Lord in the presence of Israel:
“Sun,(K) stand still over Gibeon,
and moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”
13 And the sun stood still
and the moon stopped
until the nation took vengeance on its enemies.
Isn’t this written in the Book of Jashar?[b]
So the sun stopped
in the middle of the sky
and delayed its setting
almost a full day.
14 There has been no day like it before or since, when the Lord listened to a man, because the Lord fought for Israel.(L) 15 Then Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp at Gilgal.
Execution of the Five Kings
16 Now the five defeated kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah. 17 It was reported to Joshua, “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”
18 Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and station men by it to guard the kings. 19 But as for the rest of you, don’t stay there. Pursue your enemies and attack them from behind. Don’t let them enter their cities, for the Lord your God has handed them over to you.” 20 So Joshua and the Israelites finished inflicting a terrible slaughter on them until they were destroyed, although a few survivors ran away to the fortified cities. 21 The people returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah. And no one dared to threaten the Israelites.
22 Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave, and bring those five kings to me out of there.” 23 That is what they did. They brought the five kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon to Joshua out of the cave. 24 When they had brought the kings to him, Joshua summoned all the men of Israel and said to the military commanders who had accompanied him, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So the commanders came forward and put their feet on their necks. 25 Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid or discouraged. Be strong and courageous,(M) for the Lord will do this to all the enemies you fight.”
26 After this, Joshua struck them down and executed them. He hung[c] their bodies on five trees[d] and they were there until evening.(N) 27 At sunset Joshua commanded that they be taken down from the trees(O) and thrown into the cave where they had hidden. Then large stones were placed against the mouth of the cave, and the stones are still there today.(P)
Conquest of Southern Cities
28 On that day Joshua captured Makkedah and struck it down with the sword, including its king. He completely destroyed it[e] and everyone in it, leaving no survivors. So he treated the king of Makkedah as he had the king of Jericho.(Q)
29 Joshua and all Israel with him(R) crossed from Makkedah to Libnah and fought against Libnah.(S) 30 The Lord also handed it and its king over to Israel. He struck it down, putting everyone in it to the sword, and left no survivors in it. He treated Libnah’s king as he had the king of Jericho.
31 From Libnah, Joshua and all Israel with him crossed to Lachish. They laid siege to it and attacked it. 32 The Lord handed Lachish over to Israel, and Joshua captured it on the second day. He struck it down, putting everyone in it to the sword, just as he had done to Libnah. 33 At that time King Horam of Gezer went to help Lachish,(T) but Joshua struck him down along with his people, leaving no survivors.
34 Then Joshua crossed from Lachish to Eglon and all Israel with him. They laid siege to it and attacked it. 35 On that day they captured it and struck it down, putting everyone in it to the sword. He completely destroyed it that day, just as he had done to Lachish.
36 Next, Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron(U) and attacked it. 37 They captured it and struck down its king, all its villages, and everyone in it with the sword. He left no survivors, just as he had done at Eglon. He completely destroyed Hebron and everyone in it.
38 Finally, Joshua turned toward Debir(V) and attacked it. And all Israel was with him. 39 He captured it—its king and all its villages. They struck them down with the sword and completely destroyed everyone in it, leaving no survivors. He treated Debir and its king as he had treated Hebron and as he had treated Libnah and its king.
40 So Joshua conquered the whole region(W)—the hill country, the Negev, the Judean foothills,[f] and the slopes—with all their kings, leaving no survivors. He completely destroyed every living being, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had commanded.(X) 41 Joshua conquered everyone from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza, and all the land of Goshen(Y) as far as Gibeon. 42 Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign, because the Lord, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.(Z) 43 Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.

The Sun Stands Still
10 Now Adoni-Zedek(A) king of Jerusalem(B) heard that Joshua had taken Ai(C) and totally destroyed[a](D) it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the people of Gibeon(E) had made a treaty of peace(F) with Israel and had become their allies. 2 He and his people were very much alarmed at this, because Gibeon was an important city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were good fighters. 3 So Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem appealed to Hoham king of Hebron,(G) Piram king of Jarmuth,(H) Japhia king of Lachish(I) and Debir(J) king of Eglon.(K) 4 “Come up and help me attack Gibeon,” he said, “because it has made peace(L) with Joshua and the Israelites.”
5 Then the five kings(M) of the Amorites(N)—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon—joined forces. They moved up with all their troops and took up positions against Gibeon and attacked it.
6 The Gibeonites then sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal:(O) “Do not abandon your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, because all the Amorite kings from the hill country have joined forces against us.”
7 So Joshua marched up from Gilgal with his entire army,(P) including all the best fighting men. 8 The Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid(Q) of them; I have given them into your hand.(R) Not one of them will be able to withstand you.”(S)
9 After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua took them by surprise. 10 The Lord threw them into confusion(T) before Israel,(U) so Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely at Gibeon.(V) Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Horon(W) and cut them down all the way to Azekah(X) and Makkedah.(Y) 11 As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the Lord hurled large hailstones(Z) down on them,(AA) and more of them died from the hail than were killed by the swords of the Israelites.
12 On the day the Lord gave the Amorites(AB) over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel:
“Sun, stand still over Gibeon,
and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.(AC)”
13 So the sun stood still,(AD)
and the moon stopped,
till the nation avenged itself on[b] its enemies,
as it is written in the Book of Jashar.(AE)
The sun stopped(AF) in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. 14 There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the Lord listened to a human being. Surely the Lord was fighting(AG) for Israel!
15 Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.(AH)
Five Amorite Kings Killed
16 Now the five kings had fled(AI) and hidden in the cave at Makkedah. 17 When Joshua was told that the five kings had been found hiding in the cave at Makkedah, 18 he said, “Roll large rocks up to the mouth of the cave, and post some men there to guard it. 19 But don’t stop; pursue your enemies! Attack them from the rear and don’t let them reach their cities, for the Lord your God has given them into your hand.”
20 So Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely,(AJ) but a few survivors managed to reach their fortified cities.(AK) 21 The whole army then returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah, and no one uttered a word against the Israelites.
22 Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me.” 23 So they brought the five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon. 24 When they had brought these kings(AL) to Joshua, he summoned all the men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had come with him, “Come here and put your feet(AM) on the necks of these kings.” So they came forward and placed their feet(AN) on their necks.
25 Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous.(AO) This is what the Lord will do to all the enemies you are going to fight.” 26 Then Joshua put the kings to death and exposed their bodies on five poles, and they were left hanging on the poles until evening.
27 At sunset(AP) Joshua gave the order and they took them down from the poles and threw them into the cave where they had been hiding. At the mouth of the cave they placed large rocks, which are there to this day.(AQ)
Southern Cities Conquered
28 That day Joshua took Makkedah. He put the city and its king to the sword and totally destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivors.(AR) And he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.(AS)
29 Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Makkedah to Libnah(AT) and attacked it. 30 The Lord also gave that city and its king into Israel’s hand. The city and everyone in it Joshua put to the sword. He left no survivors there. And he did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Libnah to Lachish;(AU) he took up positions against it and attacked it. 32 The Lord gave Lachish into Israel’s hands, and Joshua took it on the second day. The city and everyone in it he put to the sword, just as he had done to Libnah. 33 Meanwhile, Horam king of Gezer(AV) had come up to help Lachish, but Joshua defeated him and his army—until no survivors were left.
34 Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Lachish to Eglon;(AW) they took up positions against it and attacked it. 35 They captured it that same day and put it to the sword and totally destroyed everyone in it, just as they had done to Lachish.
36 Then Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron(AX) and attacked it. 37 They took the city and put it to the sword, together with its king, its villages and everyone(AY) in it. They left no survivors. Just as at Eglon, they totally destroyed it and everyone in it.
38 Then Joshua and all Israel with him turned around and attacked Debir.(AZ) 39 They took the city, its king and its villages, and put them to the sword. Everyone in it they totally destroyed. They left no survivors. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron.(BA)
40 So Joshua subdued the whole region, including the hill country, the Negev,(BB) the western foothills and the mountain slopes,(BC) together with all their kings.(BD) He left no survivors. He totally destroyed all who breathed, just as the Lord, the God of Israel, had commanded.(BE) 41 Joshua subdued them from Kadesh Barnea(BF) to Gaza(BG) and from the whole region of Goshen(BH) to Gibeon. 42 All these kings and their lands Joshua conquered in one campaign, because the Lord, the God of Israel, fought(BI) for Israel.
43 Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.(BJ)
