Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek{H139} king{H4428} of Jerusalem{H3389} heard{H8085} how{H3588} Joshua{H3091} had taken{H3920} Ai,{H5857} and had utterly destroyed{H2763} it (as he had done{H6213} to Jericho{H3405} and her king,{H4428} so he had done{H6213} to Ai{H5857} and her king),{H4428} and how the inhabitants{H3427} of Gibeon{H1391} had made peace{H7999} with Israel,{H3478} and were among{H7130} them;

that they feared{H3372} greatly,{H3966} because Gibeon{H1391} was a great{H1419} city,{H5892} as one{H259} of the royal{H4467} cities,{H5892} and because it was greater{H1419} than Ai,{H5857} and all the men{H582} thereof were mighty.{H1368}

Wherefore Adoni-zedek{H139} king{H4428} of Jerusalem{H3389} sent{H7971} unto Hoham{H1944} king{H4428} of Hebron,{H2275} and unto Piram{H6502} king{H4428} of Jarmuth,{H3412} and unto Japhia{H3309} king{H4428} of Lachish,{H3923} and unto Debir{H1688} king{H4428} of Eglon,{H5700} saying,{H559}

Come up{H5927} unto me, and help{H5826} me, and let us smite{H5221} Gibeon;{H1391} for it hath made peace{H7999} with Joshua{H3091} and with the children{H1121} of Israel.{H3478}

Therefore the five{H2568} kings{H4428} of the Amorites,{H567} the king{H4428} of Jerusalem,{H3389} the king{H4428} of Hebron,{H2275} the king{H4428} of Jarmuth,{H3412} the king{H4428} of Lachish,{H3923} the king{H4428} of Eglon,{H5700} gathered themselves together,{H622} and went up,{H5927} they and all their hosts,{H4264} and encamped{H2583} against Gibeon,{H1391} and made war{H3898} against it.

And the men{H582} of Gibeon{H1391} sent{H7971} unto Joshua{H3091} to the camp{H4264} to Gilgal,{H1537} saying,{H559} Slack{H7503} not thy hand{H3027} from thy servants;{H5650} come up{H5927} to us quickly,{H4120} and save{H3467} us, and help{H5826} us: for all the kings{H4428} of the Amorites{H567} that dwell{H3427} in the hill-country{H2022} are gathered together{H6908} against us.

So Joshua{H3091} went up{H5927} from Gilgal,{H1537} he, and all the people{H5971} of war{H4421} with him, and all the mighty{H1368} men of valor.{H2428}

And Jehovah{H3068} said{H559} unto Joshua,{H3091} Fear{H3372} them not: for I have delivered{H5414} them into thy hands;{H3027} there shall not a man{H376} of them stand{H5975} before{H6440} thee.

Joshua{H3091} therefore came{H935} upon them suddenly;{H6597} [for] he went up{H5927} from Gilgal{H1537} all the night.{H3915}

And Jehovah{H3068} discomfited{H2000} them before{H6440} Israel,{H3478} and he slew{H5221} them with a great{H1419} slaughter{H4347} at Gibeon,{H1391} and chased{H7291} them by the way{H1870} of the ascent{H4608} of Beth-horon,{H1032} and smote{H5221} them to Azekah,{H5825} and unto Makkedah.{H4719}

And it came to pass, as they fled{H5127} from before{H6440} Israel,{H3478} while they were at the descent{H4174} of Beth-horon,{H1032} that Jehovah{H3068} cast down{H4174} great{H1419} stones{H68} from heaven{H8064} upon them unto Azekah,{H5825} and they died:{H4191} they were more{H7227} who died{H4191} with the hailstones{H1259} than they whom{H834} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} slew{H2026} with the sword.{H2719}

Then spake{H1696} Joshua{H3091} to Jehovah{H3068} in the day{H3117} when Jehovah{H3068} delivered up{H5414} the Amorites{H567} before{H6440} the children{H1121} of Israel;{H3478} and he said{H559} in the sight{H5869} of Israel,{H3478} Sun,{H8121} stand thou still{H1826} upon Gibeon;{H1391} And thou, Moon,{H3394} in the valley{H6010} of Aijalon.{H357}

And the sun{H8121} stood still,{H1826} and the moon{H3394} stayed,{H5975} Until the nation{H1471} had avenged{H5358} themselves of their enemies.{H341} Is not this{H1931} written{H3789} in the book{H5612} of Jashar?{H3477} And the sun{H8121} stayed{H5975} in the midst{H2677} of heaven,{H8064} and hasted{H213} not to go down{H935} about a whole{H8549} day.{H3117}

And there was no day{H3117} like that before{H6440} it or after{H310} it, that Jehovah{H3068} hearkened{H8085} unto the voice{H6963} of a man:{H376} for Jehovah{H3068} fought{H3898} for Israel.{H3478}

And Joshua{H3091} returned,{H7725} and all Israel{H3478} with him, unto the camp{H4264} to Gilgal.{H1537}

And these five{H2568} kings{H4428} fled,{H5127} and hid{H2244} themselves in the cave{H4631} at Makkedah.{H4719}

And it was told{H5046} Joshua,{H3091} saying,{H559} The five{H2568} kings{H4428} are found,{H4672} hidden{H2244} in the cave{H4631} at Makkedah.{H4719}

And Joshua{H3091} said,{H559} Roll{H1556} great{H1419} stones{H68} unto the mouth{H6310} of the cave,{H4631} and set{H6485} men{H582} by it to keep{H8104} them:

but stay{H5975} not ye; pursue{H7291} after{H310} your enemies,{H341} and smite the hindmost{H2179} of them; suffer{H5414} them not to enter{H935} into their cities:{H5892} for Jehovah{H3068} your God{H430} hath delivered{H5414} them into your hand.{H3027}

And it came to pass, when Joshua{H3091} and the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} had made an end{H3615} of slaying{H5221} them with a very{H3966} great{H1419} slaughter,{H4347} till they were consumed,{H8552} and the remnant{H8300} which remained{H8277} of them had entered{H935} into the fortified{H4013} cities,{H5892}

that all the people{H5971} returned{H7725} to the camp{H4264} to Joshua{H3091} at Makkedah{H4719} in peace:{H7965} none moved{H2782} his tongue{H3956} against any{H376} of the children{H1121} of Israel.{H3478}

Then said{H559} Joshua,{H3091} Open{H6605} the mouth{H6310} of the cave,{H4631} and bring forth{H3318} those five{H2568} kings{H4428} unto me out of the cave.{H4631}

And they did{H6213} so, and brought forth{H3318} those five{H2568} kings{H4428} unto him out of the cave,{H4631} the king{H4428} of Jerusalem,{H3389} the king{H4428} of Hebron,{H2275} the king{H4428} of Jarmuth,{H3412} the king{H4428} of Lachish,{H3923} the king{H4428} of Eglon.{H5700}

And it came to pass, when they brought forth{H3318} those kings{H4428} unto Joshua,{H3091} that Joshua{H3091} called{H7121} for all the men{H376} of Israel,{H3478} and said{H559} unto the chiefs{H7101} of the men{H582} of war{H4421} that went{H1980} with him, Come near,{H7126} put{H7760} your feet{H7272} upon the necks{H6677} of these kings.{H4428} And they came near,{H7126} and put{H7760} their feet{H7272} upon the necks{H6677} of them.

And Joshua{H3091} said{H559} unto them, Fear{H3372} not, nor be dismayed;{H2865} be strong{H2388} and of good courage:{H553} for thus shall Jehovah{H3068} do{H6213} to all your enemies{H341} against whom ye fight.{H3898}

And afterward{H310} Joshua{H3091} smote{H5221} them, and put them to death,{H4191} and hanged{H8518} them on five{H2568} trees:{H6086} and they were hanging{H8518} upon the trees{H6086} until the evening.{H6153}

And it came to pass at the time{H6256} of the going down{H935} of the sun,{H8121} that Joshua{H3091} commanded,{H6680} and they took them down{H3381} off the trees,{H6086} and cast{H7993} them into the cave{H4631} wherein they had hidden{H2244} themselves, and laid{H7760} great{H1419} stones{H68} on the mouth{H6310} of the cave,{H4631} unto this very{H6106} day.{H3117}

And Joshua{H3091} took{H3920} Makkedah{H4719} on that day,{H3117} and smote{H5221} it with the edge{H6310} of the sword,{H2719} and the king{H4428} thereof: he utterly destroyed{H2763} them and all the souls{H5315} that were therein; he left{H7604} none remaining;{H8300} and he did{H6213} to the king{H4428} of Makkedah{H4719} as he had done{H6213} unto the king{H4428} of Jericho.{H3405}

And Joshua{H3091} passed{H5674} from Makkedah,{H4719} and all Israel{H3478} with him, unto Libnah,{H3841} and fought{H3898} against Libnah:{H3841}

and Jehovah{H3068} delivered{H5414} it also, and the king{H4428} thereof, into the hand{H3027} of Israel;{H3478} and he smote{H5221} it with the edge{H6310} of the sword,{H2719} and all the souls{H5315} that were therein; he left{H7604} none remaining{H8300} in it; and he did{H6213} unto the king{H4428} thereof as he had done{H6213} unto the king{H4428} of Jericho.{H3405}

And Joshua{H3091} passed{H5674} from Libnah,{H3841} and all Israel{H3478} with him, unto Lachish,{H3923} and encamped{H2583} against it, and fought{H3898} against it:

and Jehovah{H3068} delivered{H5414} Lachish{H3923} into the hand{H3027} of Israel;{H3478} and he took{H3920} it on the second{H8145} day,{H3117} and smote{H5221} it with the edge{H6310} of the sword,{H2719} and all the souls{H5315} that were therein, according to all that he had done{H6213} to Libnah.{H3841}

Then Horam{H2036} king{H4428} of Gezer{H1507} came up{H5927} to help{H5826} Lachish;{H3923} and Joshua{H3091} smote{H5221} him and his people,{H5971} until he had left{H7604} him none remaining.{H8300}

And Joshua{H3091} passed{H5674} from Lachish,{H3923} and all Israel{H3478} with him, unto Eglon;{H5700} and they encamped{H2583} against it, and fought{H3898} against it;

and they took{H3920} it on that day,{H3117} and smote{H5221} it with the edge{H6310} of the sword;{H2719} and all the souls{H5315} that were therein he utterly destroyed{H2763} that day,{H3117} according to all that he had done{H6213} to Lachish.{H3923}

And Joshua{H3091} went up{H5927} from Eglon,{H5700} and all Israel{H3478} with him, unto Hebron;{H2275} and they fought{H3898} against it:

and they took{H3920} it, and smote{H5221} it with the edge{H6310} of the sword,{H2719} and the king{H4428} thereof, and all the cities{H5892} thereof, and all the souls{H5315} that were therein; he left{H7604} none remaining,{H8300} according to all that he had done{H6213} to Eglon;{H5700} but he utterly destroyed{H2763} it, and all the souls{H5315} that were therein.

And Joshua{H3091} returned,{H7725} and all Israel{H3478} with him, to Debir,{H1688} and fought{H3898} against it:

and he took{H3920} it, and the king{H4428} thereof, and all the cities{H5892} thereof; and they smote{H5221} them with the edge{H6310} of the sword,{H2719} and utterly destroyed{H2763} all the souls{H5315} that were therein; he left{H7604} none remaining:{H8300} as he had done{H6213} to Hebron,{H2275} so he did{H6213} to Debir,{H1688} and to the king{H4428} thereof; as he had done{H6213} also to Libnah,{H3841} and to the king{H4428} thereof.

So Joshua{H3091} smote{H5221} all the land,{H776} the hill-country,{H2022} and the South,{H5045} and the lowland,{H8219} and the slopes,{H794} and all their kings:{H4428} he left{H7604} none remaining,{H8300} but he utterly destroyed{H2763} all that breathed,{H5397} as Jehovah,{H3068} the God{H430} of Israel,{H3478} commanded.{H6680}

And Joshua{H3091} smote{H5221} them from Kadesh-barnea{H6947} even unto Gaza,{H5804} and all the country{H776} of Goshen,{H1657} even unto Gibeon.{H1391}

And all these kings{H4428} and their land{H776} did Joshua{H3091} take{H3920} at one{H259} time,{H6471} because Jehovah,{H3068} the God{H430} of Israel,{H3478} fought{H3898} for Israel.{H3478}

And Joshua{H3091} returned,{H7725} and all Israel{H3478} with him, unto the camp{H4264} to Gilgal.{H1537}
