Joshua 11:16-23

1599 Geneva Bible

¹⁶ So Joshua took all this land of the mountains, and all the South, and all the land of Goshen, and the low country, and the plain, and the ^[a]mountain of Israel, and the low country of the same,

¹⁷ From the mount ^[b]Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto ^[c]Baal Gad 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 Neither was there any city that made peace with the children of Israel, ^(A)save those Hivites that inhabited Gibeon: all others they took by battle.

²⁰ For it came of the Lord, to ^[d]harden their hearts that they should come against Israel in battle, to the intent that they should destroy them utterly, and show them no mercy, but that they should bring them to nought, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

²¹ ¶ And that same season came Joshua, and destroyed the Anakims out of the mountains: as out of Hebron, out of Debir, out of Anab, and out of all the mountains of Judah, and out of all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.

²² There was no Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel, only in Gaza, ^[e]in Gath, and in Ashdod were they left.

²³ So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the Lord had said unto Moses: and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel, ^(B)according to their portions through their tribes: then the land was at rest without war.
