Conquests in Northern Canaan
11 When Jabin, king of Hazor, heard of this, he (A)sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph, 2 and to the kings who were in the northern hill country, and in the (B)Arabah south of (C)Chinneroth, and in the lowland, and (D)in Naphoth-dor on the (E)west, 3 to the Canaanites in the east and the west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, and the (F)Jebusites in the hill country, and the (G)Hivites under (H)Hermon in the land of (I)Mizpah. 4 And they came out with all their troops, a great horde, in number (J)like the sand that is on the seashore, with very many horses and chariots. 5 And all these kings joined their forces and came and encamped together at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
6 And the Lord said to Joshua, (K)“Do not be afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give over all of them, slain, to Israel. You shall (L)hamstring their horses and burn their (M)chariots with fire.” 7 So Joshua and all his warriors came (N)suddenly against them by the waters of Merom and fell upon them. 8 And the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel, who struck them and chased them as far as (O)Great Sidon and (P)Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of (Q)Mizpeh. And they struck them until he left none remaining. 9 And Joshua did to them (R)just as the Lord said to him: he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.
10 And Joshua turned back at that time and captured (S)Hazor and struck its king with the sword, for Hazor formerly was the head of all those kingdoms. 11 And they struck with the sword all who were in it, devoting them to destruction;[a] (T)there was none left that breathed. And he burned Hazor with fire. 12 And all the cities of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua captured, and struck them with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, (U)just as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. 13 But none of the cities that stood on mounds did Israel burn, except Hazor alone; that Joshua burned. 14 And all the spoil of these cities and the livestock, the people of Israel took for their plunder. But every person they struck with the edge of the sword until they had destroyed them, and they did not leave any who breathed. 15 (V)Just as the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, (W)so Moses commanded Joshua, (X)and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone of all that the Lord had commanded Moses.
16 So Joshua took all that land, (Y)the hill country and all the Negeb and (Z)all the land of Goshen (AA)and the lowland (AB)and the Arabah (AC)and the hill country of Israel and its lowland 17 (AD)from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, as far as (AE)Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon below (AF)Mount Hermon. And he captured (AG)all their kings and struck them and put them to death. 18 Joshua made war (AH)a long time with all those kings. 19 There was not a city that made peace with the people of Israel except (AI)the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took them all in battle. 20 For it was the Lord's doing (AJ)to harden their hearts that they should come against Israel in battle, in order that they should be devoted to destruction and should receive no mercy but be destroyed, (AK)just as the Lord commanded Moses.
21 And Joshua came at that time and cut off (AL)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 devoted them to destruction with their cities. 22 There was none of the Anakim left in the land of the people of Israel. Only in Gaza, (AM)in Gath, and in Ashdod did some remain. 23 So Joshua took the whole land, (AN)according to all that the Lord had spoken to Moses. (AO)And Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel (AP)according to their tribal allotments. And the land had rest from war.

Israel derrota os exércitos do norte
11 Quando Jabim, rei de Hazor, soube do que havia acontecido, enviou mensagens aos seguintes reis: a Jobabe, rei de Madom; ao rei de Sinrom; ao rei de Acsafe; 2 a todos os reis da região montanhosa ao norte; aos reis do vale do Jordão, ao sul da Galileia;[a] aos reis das colinas do oeste;[b] aos reis de Nafote-Dor, a oeste; 3 aos reis de Canaã, a leste e a oeste; aos reis dos amorreus, dos hititas, dos ferezeus, dos jebuseus da região montanhosa, e dos heveus das cidades nas encostas do Hermom, na região de Mispá.
4 Todos esses reis saíram para lutar. Juntos, seus exércitos formavam uma grande multidão, como a areia na beira do mar, equipados com muitos cavalos e carros de guerra. 5 Os reis se uniram e acamparam ao redor das águas perto de Merom, para guerrearem contra Israel.
6 Então o Senhor disse a Josué: “Não tenha medo deles. Amanhã a esta hora eu os entregarei todos mortos a Israel. Vocês deverão cortar os tendões de seus cavalos e queimar seus carros de guerra”.
7 Josué e todo o exército foram às águas perto de Merom e atacaram de surpresa, 8 e o Senhor deu a Israel vitória sobre seus inimigos. Os israelitas os perseguiram até a grande Sidom, até Misrefote-Maim e até o vale de Mispá, a leste, e não sobrou nenhum guerreiro inimigo com vida. 9 Então Josué cortou os tendões dos cavalos e queimou todos os carros de guerra, conforme o Senhor havia ordenado.
10 Depois, Josué voltou, tomou Hazor e matou seu rei. Em outros tempos, Hazor havia sido a capital de todos esses reinos. 11 Os israelitas mataram e destruíram completamente todos que viviam na cidade, sem deixar sobreviventes. Ninguém foi poupado. Por fim, Josué queimou a cidade.
12 Josué matou todos os outros reis e seus povos e os destruiu completamente, conforme Moisés, servo do Senhor, havia ordenado. 13 Mas Israel não incendiou nenhuma das cidades construídas nas colinas, exceto Hazor, que Josué queimou. 14 Os israelitas tomaram todos os despojos e os animais das cidades destruídas, mas mataram todos os seus habitantes, sem deixar sobreviventes. 15 Conforme o Senhor havia ordenado a seu servo Moisés, também Moisés ordenou a Josué, e ele obedeceu fielmente a todas as ordens que o Senhor tinha dado a Moisés.
16 Assim, Josué conquistou toda aquela terra: a região montanhosa, todo o Neguebe, toda a região ao redor da cidade de Gósen, as colinas do oeste, o vale do Jordão,[c] os montes de Israel e as colinas próximas. 17 O território israelita se estendia agora desde o monte Halaque, que sobe em direção a Seir, até Baal-Gade, no vale do Líbano, ao pé do monte Hermom. Josué capturou e matou todos os reis desses territórios, 18 depois de guerrear contra eles por muito tempo. 19 Ninguém na região fez tratados de paz com os israelitas, exceto os heveus de Gibeom. Todos os outros foram derrotados na guerra, 20 pois o Senhor lhes endureceu o coração para que lutassem contra Israel. Por isso, foram completamente destruídos, sem misericórdia, conforme o Senhor havia ordenado a Moisés.
21 Nesse período, Josué destruiu todos os descendentes de Enaque da região montanhosa de Hebrom, Debir, Anabe, e de toda a região montanhosa de Judá e Israel. Matou todos eles e destruiu completamente suas cidades. 22 Não sobreviveu nenhum descendente de Enaque em todo o território dos israelitas, embora restassem alguns em Gaza, Gate e Asdode.
23 Assim, Josué assumiu o controle de toda a terra, conforme o Senhor havia instruído Moisés. Josué a entregou ao povo de Israel como herança e a repartiu entre as tribos. E, por fim, a terra descansou da guerra.

Northern Kings Defeated
11 When Jabin(A) king of Hazor(B) heard of this, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon, to the kings of Shimron(C) and Akshaph,(D) 2 and to the northern kings who were in the mountains, in the Arabah(E) south of Kinnereth,(F) in the western foothills and in Naphoth Dor(G) on the west; 3 to the Canaanites in the east and west; to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites(H) and Jebusites in the hill country;(I) and to the Hivites(J) below Hermon(K) in the region of Mizpah.(L) 4 They came out with all their troops and a large number of horses and chariots—a huge army, as numerous as the sand on the seashore.(M) 5 All these kings joined forces(N) and made camp together at the Waters of Merom(O) to fight against Israel.
6 The Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, because by this time tomorrow I will hand(P) all of them, slain, over to Israel. You are to hamstring(Q) their horses and burn their chariots.”(R)
7 So Joshua and his whole army came against them suddenly at the Waters of Merom and attacked them, 8 and the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel. They defeated them and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon,(S) to Misrephoth Maim,(T) and to the Valley of Mizpah on the east, until no survivors were left. 9 Joshua did to them as the Lord had directed: He hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots.
10 At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword.(U) (Hazor had been the head of all these kingdoms.) 11 Everyone in it they put to the sword. They totally destroyed[a] them,(V) not sparing anyone that breathed,(W) and he burned(X) Hazor itself.
12 Joshua took all these royal cities and their kings and put them to the sword. He totally destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded.(Y) 13 Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds—except Hazor, which Joshua burned. 14 The Israelites carried off for themselves all the plunder and livestock of these cities, but all the people they put to the sword until they completely destroyed them, not sparing anyone that breathed.(Z) 15 As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua, and Joshua did it; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses.(AA)
16 So Joshua took this entire land: the hill country,(AB) all the Negev,(AC) the whole region of Goshen, the western foothills,(AD) the Arabah and the mountains of Israel with their foothills, 17 from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir,(AE) to Baal Gad(AF) in the Valley of Lebanon(AG) below Mount Hermon.(AH) He captured all their kings and put them to death.(AI) 18 Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long time. 19 Except for the Hivites(AJ) living in Gibeon,(AK) not one city made a treaty of peace(AL) with the Israelites, who took them all in battle. 20 For it was the Lord himself who hardened their hearts(AM) to wage war against Israel, so that he might destroy them totally, exterminating them without mercy, as the Lord had commanded Moses.(AN)
21 At that time Joshua went and destroyed the Anakites(AO) from the hill country: from Hebron, Debir(AP) and Anab,(AQ) from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua totally destroyed them and their towns. 22 No Anakites were left in Israelite territory; only in Gaza,(AR) Gath(AS) and Ashdod(AT) did any survive.
23 So Joshua took the entire land,(AU) just as the Lord had directed Moses, and he gave it as an inheritance(AV) to Israel according to their tribal divisions.(AW) Then the land had rest(AX) from war.(AY)
