Napierdi sang mga Israelinhon ang mga Lugar sa Aminhan

11 Sang mabalitaan ni Haring Jabin sang Hazor ang mga pagpangdaog sang mga Israelinhon, nagpadala siya sang mensahi sa sini nga mga hari: kay Haring Jobab sang Madon, sa mga hari sang Shimron kag Acshaf, sa mga hari sa kabukiran sa aminhan, sa mga hari sa Kapatagan sang Jordan[a] sa bagatnan sang Dagat sang Galilea,[b] sa mga hari sa mga bulobukid sa nakatundan, sa mga hari sa Nafot Dor sa nakatundan, sa mga hari sang mga Canaanhon sa sidlangan kag sa nakatundan sang Suba sang Jordan, sa mga hari sang mga Amornon, Hithanon, Periznon, Jebusnon nga nagaestar sa kabukiran, kag sa mga hari sang mga Hivhanon nga nagaestar sa ubos sang Bukid sang Hermon sa duta sang Mizpa. Nag-abot ini tanan nga mga hari, kaupod sang ila mga soldado nga ang ila kadamuon pareho sa balas sang baybayon. Puwerte man kadamo sang ila mga kabayo kag mga karwahe. Nagtingob ini nga mga hari kag nagkampo sa higad sang Sapa sang Merom sa pagpakig-away sa Israel.

Nagsiling ang Ginoo kay Josue, “Indi kamo magkahadlok sa ila, kay buwas sa amo man sini nga oras, pamatyon ko sila tanan para sa Israel. Pamiangon ninyo ang ila mga kabayo, kag sunugon ang ila mga karwahe.” Gani nagsalakay gulpi si Josue kag ang iya mga soldado didto sa Sapa sang Merom. Kag ginpadaog sila sang Ginoo sa ila mga kaaway. Ginlagas nila ang ila mga kaaway hasta sa Dako nga Sidon kag sa Misrefot Maim, kag hasta sa Patag sang Mizpa sa sidlangan. Naubos gid nila pamatay ang ila mga kaaway. Dayon ginhimo ni Josue sa ila ang ginsugo sang Ginoo: ginpamiang niya ang ila mga kabayo kag ginpangsunog ang ila mga karwahe.

10 Pagkatapos nagbalik sila ni Josue sa Hazor kag gin-agaw nila ini kag ginpatay ang hari sini. (Sadto nga panahon, ang Hazor amo ang labing gamhanan sa sina nga mga ginharian.) 11 Ginpamatay man nila ang tanan nga pumuluyo sang Hazor. Ginlaglag nila ini sing bug-os,[c] kag wala gid sing may nabilin nga buhi. Kag ang banwa mismo ginsunog nila.

12 Naagaw nila ni Josue ining tanan nga banwa. Ginpamatay nila ang mga pumuluyo sini, pati ang ila mga hari. Ginlaglag nila ini sing bug-os suno sa ginsugo ni Moises nga alagad sang Ginoo. 13 Pero wala pagsunuga sang mga Israelinhon ang mga banwa sa mga bulobukid, luwas lang sa Hazor. 14 Ginpanguha sang mga Israelinhon ang tanan nga pagkabutang kag mga kasapatan sa sini nga mga banwa. Pero ginpamatay nila ang tanan nga pumuluyo sini, kag wala gid sing may nabilin nga buhi. 15 Amo ato ang ginsugo sang Ginoo kay Moises nga himuon, kag ini ginsugo man ni Moises kay Josue. Gintuman gid ni Josue ang tanan nga ginsugo sang Ginoo kay Moises.

16 Gani nasakop ni Josue ang bug-os nga duta: ang kabukiran, ang tanan nga kadutaan sang Negev, ang tanan nga kadutaan sang Goshen, ang mga bulobukid sa nakatundan, ang Kapatagan sang Jordan,[d] kag ang mga mataas kag manubo nga mga bukid sang Israel. 17 Ang teritoryo nga nasakop niya nagahalin sa Bukid sang Halak nga pataklad sa Seir hasta sa Baal Gad sa Patag sang Lebanon sa ubos sang Bukid sang Hermon. Gindakop niya kag ginpamatay ang mga hari sang sini nga mga lugar 18 sa tapos sang ila malawig nga pagpakig-away. 19 Wala sing may nagpakig-abyan sa mga Israelinhon luwas lang sa mga Hivhanon nga nagaestar sa Gibeon. Ang iban iya, ginpamierde nila sa inaway. 20 Kay ginpatig-a sang Ginoo ang ila tagipusuon agod magpakig-away sila sa mga Israelinhon, kag agod malaglag sila sing bug-os kag mapatay nga wala sing luoy-luoy, suno sa ginsugo sang Ginoo kay Moises.

21 Sang sadto man nga tion, ginsalakay ni Josue ang mga kaliwat ni Anak nga nagaestar sa mga kabukiran sang Hebron, Debir, Anab, kag sa tanan nga kabukiran sang Juda kag Israel. Ginlaglag sila ni Josue sing bug-os pati ang ila mga banwa. 22 Wala sing mga kaliwat ni Anak nga nabilin sa teritoryo sang mga Israelinhon, pero may nabilin pa sa ila sa Gaza, sa Gat, kag sa Ashdod.

23 Gani nasakop ni Josue ang bug-os nga duta, suno sa ginsugo sang Ginoo kay Moises. Ginhatag ini ni Josue sa mga Israelinhon bilang ila palanublion, kag ginpartida nila ini suno sa ila tagsa ka tribo.

Sang sadto nga tion, nauntat na ang inaway sa sina nga duta.

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) 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; 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) 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) All these kings joined forces(N) and made camp together at the Waters of Merom(O) to fight against Israel.

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)

So Joshua and his whole army came against them suddenly at the Waters of Merom and attacked them, 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. 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)

  1. Joshua 11:11 The Hebrew term refers to the irrevocable giving over of things or persons to the Lord, often by totally destroying them; also in verses 12, 20 and 21.

11 And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,

And to the kings that were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,

And to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and to the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.

And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.

And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

And the Lord said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.

So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.

And the Lord delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.

And Joshua did unto them as the Lord bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.

10 And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.

11 And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.

12 And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded.

13 But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.

14 And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.

15 As the Lord commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses.

16 So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;

17 Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baalgad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.

18 Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

19 There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle.

20 For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the Lord commanded Moses.

21 And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.

22 There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.

23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the Lord said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
