^[1] 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] 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] 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] 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] All these kings met together; and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel. ^[6] Yahweh said to Joshua, “Don’t 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] So Joshua came suddenly, with all the warriors, against them by the waters of Merom, and attacked them. ^[8] Yahweh 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] Joshua did to them as Yahweh told him. He hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire. ^[10] 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] 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] 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 Yahweh commanded. ^[13] But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, except Hazor only. Joshua burned that. ^[14] 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 didn’t leave any who breathed. ^[15] As Yahweh commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua. Joshua did so. He left nothing undone of all that Yahweh commanded Moses. ^[16] 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] 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] Joshua made war a long time with all those kings. ^[19] 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] For it was of Yahweh 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 Yahweh commanded Moses. ^[21] 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] 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] So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that Yahweh 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.

King James Version

^[1] And it came to pass, when JabinH2985 kingH4428 of HazorH2674 had heardH8085(QalInf) [those things], that he sentH7971(QalImpf) to JobabH3103 kingH4428 of Madon,H4068 and to the kingH4428 of Shimron,H8110 and to the kingH4428 of Achshaph,H407 ^[2] And to the kingsH4428 that [were] on the northH6828 of the mountains,H2022 and of the plainsH6160 southH5045 of Chinneroth,H3672 and in the valley,H8219 and in the bordersH5299 of DorH1756 on the west,H3220 ^[3] [And to] the CanaaniteH3669 on the eastH4217 and on the west,H3220 and [to] the Amorite,H567 and the Hittite,H2850 and the Perizzite,H6522 and the JebusiteH2983 in the mountains,H2022 and [to] the HiviteH2340 under HermonH2768 in the landH776 of Mizpeh.H4709 ^[4] And they went out,H3318(QalImpf) they and all their hostsH4264 with them, muchH7227 people,H5971 even as the sandH2344 that [is] upon the seaH3220 shoreH8193 in multitude,H7230 with horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393 veryH3966 many.H7227 ^[5] And when all these kingsH4428 were met together,H3259(NiphImpf) they cameH935(QalImpf) and pitchedH2583(QalImpf) togetherH3162 at the watersH4325 of Merom,H4792 to fightH3898(NiphInf) against Israel.H3478 ^[6] And the LordH3068 saidH559(QalImpf) unto Joshua,H3091 Be not afraidH3372(QalImpf) becauseH6440 of them: for to morrowH4279 about this timeH6256 will I deliver them upH5414(QalActPtc) all slainH2491 beforeH6440 Israel:H3478 thou shalt houghH6131(PielImpf) their horses,H5483 and burnH8313(QalImpf) their chariotsH4818 with fire.H784 ^[7] So JoshuaH3091 came,H935(QalImpf) and all the peopleH5971 of warH4421 with him, against them by the watersH4325 of MeromH4792 suddenly;H6597 and they fell uponH5307(QalImpf) them. ^[8] And the LordH3068 deliveredH5414(QalImpf) them into the handH3027 of Israel,H3478 who smoteH5221(HiphImpf) them, and chasedH7291(QalImpf) them unto greatH7227 Zidon,H6721 and unto Misrephothmaim,H4956 and unto the valleyH1237 of MizpehH4708 eastward;H4217 and they smoteH5221(HiphImpf) them, until they leftH7604(HiphPerf) them none remaining.H8300 ^[9] And JoshuaH3091 didH6213(QalImpf) unto them as the LordH3068 badeH559(QalPerf) him: he houghedH6131(PielPerf) their horses,H5483 and burntH8313(QalPerf) their chariotsH4818 with fire.H784 ^[10] And JoshuaH3091 at that timeH6256 turned back,H7725(QalImpf) and tookH3920(QalImpf) Hazor,H2674 and smoteH5221(HiphPerf) the kingH4428 thereof with the sword:H2719 for HazorH2674 beforetimeH6440 was the headH7218 of all those kingdoms.H4467 ^[11] And they smoteH5221(HiphImpf) all the soulsH5315 that [were] therein with the edgeH6310 of the sword,H2719 utterly destroyingH2763(HiphInf) [them]: there was not any leftH3498(NiphPerf) to breathe:H5397 and he burntH8313(QalPerf) HazorH2674 with fire.H784 ^[12] And all the citiesH5892 of those kings,H4428 and all the kingsH4428 of them, did JoshuaH3091 take,H3920(QalPerf) and smoteH5221(HiphImpf) them with the edgeH6310 of the sword,H2719 [and] he utterly destroyedH2763(HiphPerf) them, as MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LordH3068 commanded.H6680(PielPerf) ^[13] But [as for] the citiesH5892 that stoodH5975(QalActPtc) still in their strength,H8510 IsraelH3478 burnedH8313(QalPerf) none of them, saveH2108 HazorH2674 only; [that] did JoshuaH3091 burn.H8313(QalPerf) ^[14] And all the spoilH7998 of these cities,H5892 and the cattle,H929 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 took for a preyH962(QalPerf) unto themselves; but every manH120 they smoteH5221(HiphPerf) with the edgeH6310 of the sword,H2719 until they had destroyedH8045(HiphInf) them, neither leftH7604(HiphPerf) they any to breathe.H5397 ^[15] As the LordH3068 commandedH6680(PielPerf) MosesH4872 his servant,H5650 so did MosesH4872 commandH6680(PielPerf) Joshua,H3091 and so didH6213(QalPerf) Joshua;H3091 he leftH5493 nothingH1697 undoneH5493(HiphPerf) of all that the LordH3068 commandedH6680(PielPerf) Moses.H4872 ^[16] So JoshuaH3091 tookH3947(QalImpf) all that land,H776 the hills,H2022 and all the south country,H5045 and all the landH776 of Goshen,H1657 and the valley,H8219 and the plain,H6160 and the mountainH2022 of Israel,H3478 and the valleyH8219 of the same; ^[17] [Even] from the mountH2022 Halak,H2510 that goeth upH5927(QalActPtc) to Seir,H8165 even unto BaalgadH1171 in the valleyH1237 of LebanonH3844 under mountH2022 Hermon:H2768 and all their kingsH4428 he took,H3920(QalPerf) and smoteH5221(HiphImpf) them, and slewH4191(HiphImpf) them. ^[18] JoshuaH3091 madeH6213(QalPerf) warH4421 a longH7227 timeH3117 with all those kings.H4428 ^[19] There was not a cityH5892 that made peaceH7999(HiphPerf) with the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 save the HivitesH2340 the inhabitantsH3427(QalActPtc) of Gibeon:H1391 all [other] they tookH3947(QalPerf) in battle.H4421 ^[20] For it was of the LordH3068 to hardenH2388(PielInf) their hearts,H3820 that they should come againstH7125(QalInf) IsraelH3478 in battle,H4421 that he might destroy them utterly,H2763(HiphInf) [and] that they might have no favour,H8467 but that he might destroyH8045(HiphInf) them, as the LordH3068 commandedH6680(PielPerf) Moses.H4872 ^[21] And at that timeH6256 cameH935(QalImpf) Joshua,H3091 and cut offH3772(HiphImpf) the AnakimsH6062 from the mountains,H2022 from Hebron,H2275 from Debir,H1688 from Anab,H6024 and from all the mountainsH2022 of Judah,H3063 and from all the mountainsH2022 of Israel:H3478 JoshuaH3091 destroyed them utterlyH2763(HiphPerf) with their cities.H5892 ^[22] There was none of the AnakimsH6062 leftH3498(NiphPerf) in the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of Israel:H3478 only in Gaza,H5804 in Gath,H1661 and in Ashdod,H795 there remained.H7604(NiphPerf) ^[23] So JoshuaH3091 tookH3947(QalImpf) the whole land,H776 according to all that the LordH3068 saidH1696(PielPerf) unto Moses;H4872 and JoshuaH3091 gaveH5414(QalImpf) it for an inheritanceH5159 unto IsraelH3478 according to their divisionsH4256 by their tribes.H7626 And the landH776 restedH8252(QalPerf) from war.H4421
