Then the two men came down from the hill-country and went over and came back to Joshua, the son of Nun; and they gave him a complete account of what had taken place.

And they said to Joshua, Truly, the Lord has given all the land into our hands; and all the people of the land have become like water because of us.

Then Joshua got up early in the morning, and, moving on from Shittim, he and all the children of Israel came to Jordan and were there for the night before going over.

And Joshua said, By this you will see that the living God is among you, and that he will certainly send out from before you the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Hivite and the Perizzite and the Girgashite and the Amorite and the Jebusite.

So take twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, a man from every tribe.

And when the feet of the priests who take up the ark of the Lord, the Lord of all the earth, come to rest in the waters of Jordan, the waters of Jordan will be cut off, all the waters flowing down from higher up, and will come together in a mass.

So when the people went out from their tents to go over Jordan, the priests who took up the ark of the agreement were in front of the people;

And when those who took up the ark came to Jordan, and the feet of the priests who took up the ark were touching the edge of the water (for the waters of Jordan are overflowing all through the time of the grain-cutting),

\w And|strong="H0935"\w* \w when|strong="H3117"\w* \w those|strong="H3605"\w* \w who|strong="H3605"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w came|strong="H0935"\w* \w to|strong="H0935"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w feet|strong="H7272"\w* \w of|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w who|strong="H3605"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w were|strong="H3117"\w* touching \w the|strong="H3605"\w* edge \w of|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w water|strong="H4325"\w* (\w for|strong="H5921"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w waters|strong="H4325"\w* \w of|strong="H3117"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w* \w are|strong="H3117"\w* overflowing \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w through|strong="H5921"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w time|strong="H3117"\w* \w of|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* grain-cutting), 

Then the waters flowing down from higher up were stopped and came together in a mass a long way back at Adam, a town near Zarethan; and the waters flowing down to the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were cut off: and the people went across opposite Jericho.

And the priests who took up the ark of the agreement of the Lord kept their places, with their feet on dry land in the middle of Jordan, while all Israel went over on dry land, till all the nation had gone over Jordan.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w agreement|strong="H1285"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w kept|strong="H5975"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w places|strong="H3605"\w*, \w with|strong="H3068"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* feet \w on|strong="H3068"\w* \w dry|strong="H2724"\w* \w land|strong="H2724"\w* \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w middle|strong="H8432"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w while|strong="H5704"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w went|strong="H5375"\w* \w over|strong="H5674"\w* \w on|strong="H3068"\w* \w dry|strong="H2724"\w* \w land|strong="H2724"\w*, \w till|strong="H5704"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w nation|strong="H1471"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w gone|strong="H8552"\w* \w over|strong="H5674"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*. 

Now when all the nation had come to the other side of Jordan, the Lord said to Joshua,

\w Now|strong="H1961"\w* \w when|strong="H1961"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w nation|strong="H1471"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w come|strong="H1961"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w other|strong="H3605"\w* \w side|strong="H3383"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*,

And say to them, Take up from the middle of Jordan, from the place where the feet of the priests were resting, twelve stones, and take them over with you and put them down in the place where you take your rest tonight.

\w And|strong="H3548"\w* \w say|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w*, \w Take|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w* \w from|strong="H8432"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w middle|strong="H8432"\w* \w of|strong="H8432"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w from|strong="H8432"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w place|strong="H4411"\w* \w where|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w feet|strong="H7272"\w* \w of|strong="H8432"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w were|strong="H0834"\w* resting, \w twelve|strong="H6240"\w* \w stones|strong="H0068"\w*, \w and|strong="H3548"\w* \w take|strong="H5375"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w over|strong="H5674"\w* \w with|strong="H5973"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w and|strong="H3548"\w* \w put|strong="H3240"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w down|strong="H6680"\w* \w in|strong="H8432"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w place|strong="H4411"\w* \w where|strong="H0834"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w take|strong="H5375"\w* \w your|strong="H0834"\w* rest \w tonight|strong="H3915"\w*. 

So Joshua sent for the twelve men, whom he had ready, one man out of every tribe of the children of Israel,

\w So|strong="H7121"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* sent \w for|strong="H7121"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w twelve|strong="H6240"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w*, \w whom|strong="H0834"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H0834"\w* \w ready|strong="H3559"\w*, \w one|strong="H0259"\w* \w man|strong="H0376"\w* \w out|strong="H0413"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w every|strong="H0376"\w* \w tribe|strong="H7626"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, 

And he said to them, Go over before the ark of the Lord your God into the middle of Jordan, and let every one of you take up a stone on his back, one for every tribe of the children of Israel:

\w And|strong="H1121"\w* \w he|strong="H0430"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*, \w Go|strong="H5674"\w* \w over|strong="H5921"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w into|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w middle|strong="H8432"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* let \w every|strong="H0376"\w* \w one|strong="H0259"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w you|strong="H6440"\w* \w take|strong="H7311"\w* \w up|strong="H7311"\w* \w a|strong="H5921"\w* \w stone|strong="H0068"\w* \w on|strong="H5921"\w* \w his|strong="H5921"\w* \w back|strong="H7926"\w*, \w one|strong="H0259"\w* \w for|strong="H5921"\w* \w every|strong="H0376"\w* \w tribe|strong="H7626"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*: 

So that this may be a sign among you; when your children say to you in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?

Then you will say to them, Because the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the Lord's agreement; when it went over Jordan the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones will be a sign for the children of Israel, keeping it in their memory for ever.

So the children of Israel did as Joshua gave them orders, and took twelve stones from the middle of Jordan, as the Lord had said to Joshua, one for every tribe of the children of Israel; these they took across with them to their night's resting-place and put them down there.

\w So|strong="H3651"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w* \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w gave|strong="H6680"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w twelve|strong="H6240"\w* \w stones|strong="H0068"\w* \w from|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w middle|strong="H8432"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H1696"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w one|strong="H1121"\w* \w for|strong="H0413"\w* every \w tribe|strong="H7626"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*; \w these|strong="H1696"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w across|strong="H5674"\w* \w with|strong="H5973"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* night's resting-place \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w put|strong="H3240"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w down|strong="H6680"\w* \w there|strong="H8033"\w*. 

And Joshua put up twelve stones in the middle of Jordan, where the feet of the priests who took up the ark of the agreement had been placed: and there they are to this day.

For the priests who took up the ark kept there in the middle of Jordan till all the orders given to Joshua by Moses from the Lord had been done: then the people went over quickly.

And when all the people had come to the other side, the ark of the Lord went over, and the priests, before the eyes of the people.

And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh went over armed before the children of Israel as Moses had said to them:

About forty thousand armed for war went over before the Lord to the fight, to the lowlands of Jericho.

That day the Lord made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel; and all the days of his life they went in fear of him, as they had gone in fear of Moses.

\w That|strong="H0834"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w made|strong="H3605"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w great|strong="H1431"\w* \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w eyes|strong="H5869"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*; \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w days|strong="H3117"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w life|strong="H3117"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* went \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w fear|strong="H3372"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w him|strong="H0853"\w*, \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* gone \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w fear|strong="H3372"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w Moses|strong="H4872"\w*.

Give orders to the priests who take up the ark of witness, to come up out of Jordan.

\w Give|strong="H6680"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H4480"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w who|strong="H3548"\w* \w take|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* witness, \w to|strong="H4480"\w* \w come|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w out|strong="H4480"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*. 

So Joshua gave orders to the priests, saying, Come up now out of Jordan.

\w So|strong="H4480"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w gave|strong="H6680"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Come|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* now \w out|strong="H4480"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*. 

And when the priests who took up the ark of the Lord's agreement came up out of Jordan and their feet came out on to dry land, the waters of Jordan went back to their place, overflowing its edges as before.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w when|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w who|strong="H3605"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* Lord's \w agreement|strong="H1285"\w* \w came|strong="H1961"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w out|strong="H5921"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w feet|strong="H7272"\w* \w came|strong="H1961"\w* \w out|strong="H5921"\w* \w on|strong="H5921"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w dry|strong="H2724"\w* \w land|strong="H4725"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w waters|strong="H4325"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w back|strong="H7725"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w place|strong="H4725"\w*, overflowing \w its|strong="H3605"\w* edges \w as|strong="H1961"\w* \w before|strong="H0413"\w*. 

So on the tenth day of the first month the people came up out of Jordan, and put up their tents in Gilgal, on the east side of Jericho.

\w So|strong="H4480"\w* \w on|strong="H2583"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w tenth|strong="H6218"\w* \w day|strong="H2320"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w first|strong="H7223"\w* \w month|strong="H2320"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w came|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w out|strong="H4480"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w and|strong="H5927"\w* \w put|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w their|strong="H4480"\w* tents \w in|strong="H2583"\w* \w Gilgal|strong="H1537"\w*, \w on|strong="H2583"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w east|strong="H4217"\w* \w side|strong="H4217"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w Jericho|strong="H3405"\w*. 

And the twelve stones which they took out of Jordan, Joshua put up in Gilgal.

\w And|strong="H6965"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w twelve|strong="H6240"\w* \w stones|strong="H0068"\w* \w which|strong="H0834"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w took|strong="H3947"\w* \w out|strong="H4480"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w*, \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w put|strong="H3947"\w* \w up|strong="H6965"\w* \w in|strong="H6965"\w* \w Gilgal|strong="H1537"\w*. 

And he said to the children of Israel, When your children say to their fathers in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?

\w And|strong="H1121"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, \w When|strong="H0834"\w* \w your|strong="H0834"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w say|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w their|strong="H0834"\w* \w fathers|strong="H0001"\w* \w in|strong="H0413"\w* \w time|strong="H4279"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w come|strong="H4279"\w*, \w What|strong="H4100"\w* \w is|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w reason|strong="H0834"\w* \w for|strong="H0413"\w* \w these|strong="H0428"\w* \w stones|strong="H0068"\w*? 

Then give your children the story, and say, Israel came over this river Jordan on dry land.

\w Then|strong="H2088"\w* give \w your|strong="H3045"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* story, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w say|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w came|strong="H0559"\w* \w over|strong="H5674"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* river \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w* \w on|strong="H3383"\w* \w dry|strong="H3004"\w* \w land|strong="H3004"\w*. 

For the Lord your God made the waters of Jordan dry before you till you had gone across, as he did to the Red Sea, drying it up before us till we had gone across:

\w For|strong="H4325"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w made|strong="H6213"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w waters|strong="H4325"\w* \w of|strong="H0430"\w* \w Jordan|strong="H3383"\w* \w dry|strong="H3001"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w till|strong="H5704"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* gone \w across|strong="H5674"\w*, \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w* \w to|strong="H5704"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* Red \w Sea|strong="H3220"\w*, drying \w it|strong="H5704"\w* \w up|strong="H3001"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w us|strong="H6440"\w* \w till|strong="H5704"\w* \w we|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* gone \w across|strong="H5674"\w*: 

So that all the peoples of the earth may see that the hand of the Lord is strong; and that they may go in fear of the Lord your God for ever.

Now when the news came to all the kings of the Amorites on the west side of Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites living by the sea, how the Lord had made the waters of Jordan dry before the children of Israel, till they had gone across, their hearts became like water, and there was no more spirit in them, because of the children of Israel.

At that time the Lord said to Joshua, Make yourself stone knives and give the children of Israel circumcision a second time.

And this is the reason why Joshua did so: all the males of the people who came out of Egypt, all the fighting-men, had been overtaken by death in the waste land on the way, after they came out of Egypt.

\w And|strong="H0376"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* \w is|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w reason|strong="H1697"\w* \w why|strong="H0834"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w did|strong="H0834"\w* \w so|strong="H3318"\w*: \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w males|strong="H2145"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w came|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w Egypt|strong="H4714"\w*, \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* fighting-men, \w had|strong="H0834"\w* \w been|strong="H0834"\w* overtaken \w by|strong="H1870"\w* \w death|strong="H4191"\w* \w in|strong="H4191"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* waste land \w on|strong="H1870"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w way|strong="H1870"\w*, \w after|strong="H3318"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w came|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w Egypt|strong="H4714"\w*. 

All the people who came out had undergone circumcision; but all the people whose birth had taken place in the waste land on their journey from Egypt had not.

For the children of Israel were wandering in the waste land for forty years, till all the nation, that is, all the fighting-men, who had come out of Egypt, were dead, because they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: to whom the Lord said, with an oath, that he would not let them see the land which the Lord had given his word to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

And their children, who came up in their place, now underwent circumcision by the hands of Joshua, not having had it before: for there had been no circumcision on the journey.

So when all the nation had undergone circumcision, they kept in their tents till they were well again.

And the Lord said to Joshua, Today the shame of Egypt has been rolled away from you. So that place was named Gilgal, to this day.

So the children of Israel put up their tents in Gilgal; and they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the lowlands of Jericho.

\w So|strong="H6213"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* put \w up|strong="H0853"\w* \w their|strong="H3117"\w* tents \w in|strong="H2583"\w* \w Gilgal|strong="H1537"\w*; \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w kept|strong="H6213"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Passover|strong="H6453"\w* \w on|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* fourteenth \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w month|strong="H2320"\w*, \w in|strong="H2583"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w evening|strong="H6153"\w*, \w in|strong="H2583"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* lowlands \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Jericho|strong="H3405"\w*. 

And on the day after the Passover, they had for their food the produce of the land, unleavened cakes and dry grain on the same day.

\w And|strong="H0776"\w* \w on|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3117"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w after|strong="H4283"\w* \w the|strong="H3117"\w* \w Passover|strong="H6453"\w*, \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w had|strong="H0398"\w* \w for|strong="H0776"\w* \w their|strong="H0398"\w* \w food|strong="H0398"\w* \w the|strong="H3117"\w* \w produce|strong="H5669"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w the|strong="H3117"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w*, \w unleavened|strong="H4682"\w* \w cakes|strong="H4682"\w* \w and|strong="H0776"\w* dry grain \w on|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3117"\w* \w same|strong="H6106"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w*. 

And there was no more manna from the day after they had for their food the produce of the land; the children of Israel had manna no longer, but that year the produce of the land of Canaan was their food.

Now when Joshua was near Jericho, lifting up his eyes he saw a man in front of him, with his sword uncovered in his hand: and Joshua went up to him and said, Are you for us or against us?

And he said, No; but I have come as captain of the armies of the Lord. Then Joshua, falling down with his face to the earth in worship, said, What has my lord to say to his servant?

(\w Now|strong="H0935"\w* \w Jericho|strong="H3405"\w* \w was|strong="H0369"\w* all \w shut|strong="H5462"\w* \w up|strong="H5462"\w* \w because|strong="H6440"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*: \w there|strong="H0369"\w* \w was|strong="H0369"\w* \w no|strong="H0369"\w* \w going|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w or|strong="H0369"\w* \w coming|strong="H0935"\w* \w in|strong="H0935"\w*.) 

And the Lord said to Joshua, See, I have given into your hands Jericho with its king and all its men of war.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w See|strong="H7200"\w*, \w I|strong="H5414"\w* \w have|strong="H3068"\w* \w given|strong="H5414"\w* \w into|strong="H0413"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w hands|strong="H3027"\w* \w Jericho|strong="H3405"\w* \w with|strong="H0413"\w* \w its|strong="H5414"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* all \w its|strong="H5414"\w* \w men|strong="H1368"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* war. 

Now let all your fighting-men make a circle round the town, going all round it once. Do this for six days.

\w Now|strong="H3117"\w* \w let|strong="H6471"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w your|strong="H3605"\w* fighting-men \w make|strong="H6213"\w* \w a|strong="H0259"\w* \w circle|strong="H5437"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*, going \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w it|strong="H5437"\w* \w once|strong="H0259"\w*. \w Do|strong="H6213"\w* \w this|strong="H3541"\w* \w for|strong="H3117"\w* \w six|strong="H8337"\w* \w days|strong="H3117"\w*. 

And let seven priests go before the ark with seven loud-sounding horns in their hands: on the seventh day you are to go round the town seven times, the priests blowing their horns.

\w And|strong="H3117"\w* \w let|strong="H6471"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w go|strong="H5437"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w with|strong="H3117"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* loud-sounding \w horns|strong="H7782"\w* \w in|strong="H3117"\w* \w their|strong="H5375"\w* hands: \w on|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w seventh|strong="H7637"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w you|strong="H6440"\w* \w are|strong="H3117"\w* \w to|strong="H3117"\w* \w go|strong="H5437"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w times|strong="H6471"\w*, \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w blowing|strong="H8628"\w* \w their|strong="H5375"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*. 

And at the sound of a long note on the horns, let all the people give a loud cry; and the wall of the town will come down flat, and all the people are to go straight forward.

\w And|strong="H1419"\w* \w at|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w sound|strong="H6963"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w a|strong="H1961"\w* \w long|strong="H4900"\w* note \w on|strong="H5307"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w horns|strong="H7161"\w*, \w let|strong="H1961"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w give|strong="H8085"\w* \w a|strong="H1961"\w* \w loud|strong="H1419"\w* \w cry|strong="H7321"\w*; \w and|strong="H1419"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w wall|strong="H2346"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w will|strong="H1961"\w* \w come|strong="H1961"\w* \w down|strong="H5307"\w* \w flat|strong="H8478"\w*, \w and|strong="H1419"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w are|strong="H0376"\w* \w to|strong="H1961"\w* \w go|strong="H5927"\w* \w straight|strong="H5048"\w* forward. 

Then Joshua, the son of Nun, sent for the priests and said to them, Take up the ark of the agreement, and let seven priests take seven horns in their hands and go before the ark of the Lord.

\w Then|strong="H0853"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Nun|strong="H5126"\w*, \w sent|strong="H0559"\w* \w for|strong="H7121"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*, \w Take|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w agreement|strong="H1285"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* let \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w take|strong="H5375"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w* \w in|strong="H0413"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* hands \w and|strong="H1121"\w* go \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*. 

And he said to the people, Go forward, circling the town, and let the armed men go before the ark of the Lord.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w he|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w*, \w Go|strong="H5437"\w* \w forward|strong="H6440"\w*, \w circling|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* let \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w armed|strong="H2502"\w* \w men|strong="H5971"\w* \w go|strong="H5437"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*. 

So after Joshua had said this to the people, the seven priests with their seven horns went forward before the Lord, blowing on their horns: and the ark of the Lord's agreement went after them.

\w So|strong="H1980"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w this|strong="H3068"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w*, \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w with|strong="H1980"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w* \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w forward|strong="H6440"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w blowing|strong="H8628"\w* \w on|strong="H0413"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*: \w and|strong="H1980"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* Lord's \w agreement|strong="H1285"\w* \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*. 

And the armed men went before the priests who were blowing the horns, and the mass of the people went after the ark, blowing their horns.

\w And|strong="H1980"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w armed|strong="H2502"\w* \w men|strong="H1980"\w* \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w who|strong="H3548"\w* \w were|strong="H0727"\w* \w blowing|strong="H8628"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*, \w and|strong="H1980"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* mass \w of|strong="H0727"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* people \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w*, \w blowing|strong="H8628"\w* \w their|strong="H6440"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*. 

And to the people Joshua gave an order, saying, You will give no cry, and make no sound, and let no word go out of your mouth till the day when I say, Give a loud cry; then give a loud cry.

\w And|strong="H3117"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w gave|strong="H6680"\w* \w an|strong="H7321"\w* \w order|strong="H6680"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w You|strong="H6680"\w* \w will|strong="H1697"\w* \w give|strong="H6680"\w* \w no|strong="H3808"\w* \w cry|strong="H7321"\w*, \w and|strong="H3117"\w* \w make|strong="H8085"\w* \w no|strong="H3808"\w* \w sound|strong="H6963"\w*, \w and|strong="H3117"\w* \w let|strong="H3808"\w* \w no|strong="H3808"\w* \w word|strong="H1697"\w* \w go|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w of|strong="H3117"\w* \w your|strong="H8085"\w* \w mouth|strong="H6310"\w* \w till|strong="H5704"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w when|strong="H3117"\w* \w I|strong="H5704"\w* \w say|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Give|strong="H6680"\w* \w a|strong="H8085"\w* \w loud|strong="H7321"\w* \w cry|strong="H7321"\w*; \w then|strong="H3318"\w* \w give|strong="H6680"\w* \w a|strong="H8085"\w* \w loud|strong="H7321"\w* \w cry|strong="H7321"\w*. 

So he made the ark of the Lord go all round the town once: then they went back to the tents for the night.

\w So|strong="H0935"\w* \w he|strong="H3068"\w* \w made|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w go|strong="H0935"\w* \w all|strong="H0259"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w once|strong="H0259"\w*: \w then|strong="H0853"\w* \w they|strong="H3068"\w* \w went|strong="H0935"\w* \w back|strong="H0935"\w* \w to|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* tents \w for|strong="H0259"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* night. 

And early in the morning Joshua got up, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w early|strong="H7925"\w* \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w morning|strong="H1242"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w got|strong="H7925"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w took|strong="H5375"\w* \w up|strong="H5375"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*. 

And the seven priests with their seven horns went on before the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns: the armed men went before them, and the mass of the people went after the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns.

\w And|strong="H1980"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w priests|strong="H3548"\w* \w with|strong="H1980"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w* \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w on|strong="H1980"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w blowing|strong="H8628"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*: \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w armed|strong="H2502"\w* \w men|strong="H1980"\w* \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w them|strong="H0310"\w*, \w and|strong="H1980"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* mass \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* people \w went|strong="H1980"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w ark|strong="H0727"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H6440"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w blowing|strong="H8628"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*. 

The second day they went all round the town once, and then went back to their tents: and so they did for six days.

\w The|strong="H0853"\w* \w second|strong="H8145"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w went|strong="H7725"\w* \w all|strong="H3117"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w once|strong="H0259"\w*, \w and|strong="H7725"\w* \w then|strong="H0853"\w* \w went|strong="H7725"\w* \w back|strong="H7725"\w* \w to|strong="H7725"\w* \w their|strong="H7725"\w* tents: \w and|strong="H7725"\w* \w so|strong="H6213"\w* \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w* \w for|strong="H3117"\w* \w six|strong="H8337"\w* \w days|strong="H3117"\w*. 

Then on the seventh day they got up early, at the dawn of the day, and went round the town in the same way, but that day they went round it seven times.

\w Then|strong="H1961"\w* \w on|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w seventh|strong="H7637"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w got|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w early|strong="H7925"\w*, \w at|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w dawn|strong="H7837"\w* \w of|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w*, \w and|strong="H3117"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w in|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w same|strong="H1931"\w* \w way|strong="H2088"\w*, \w but|strong="H7535"\w* \w that|strong="H3117"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w round|strong="H5437"\w* \w it|strong="H1931"\w* \w seven|strong="H7651"\w* \w times|strong="H6471"\w*. 

And the seventh time, at the sound of the priests' horns, Joshua said to the people, Now give a loud cry; for the Lord has given you the town.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w seventh|strong="H7637"\w* \w time|strong="H6471"\w*, \w at|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w sound|strong="H7321"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* priests' \w horns|strong="H7782"\w*, \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w*, \w Now|strong="H1961"\w* \w give|strong="H5414"\w* \w a|strong="H1961"\w* \w loud|strong="H7321"\w* \w cry|strong="H7321"\w*; \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w has|strong="H3068"\w* \w given|strong="H5414"\w* \w you|strong="H3588"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*. 

And the town will be put to the curse, and everything in it will be given to the Lord: only Rahab, the loose woman, and all who are in the house with her, will be kept safe, because she kept secret the men we sent.

So the people gave a loud cry, and the horns were sounded; and on hearing the horns the people gave a loud cry, and the wall came down flat, so that the people went up into the town, every man going straight before him, and they took the town.

And they put everything in the town to the curse; men and women, young and old, ox and sheep and ass, they put to death without mercy.

Then Joshua said to the two men who had been sent to make a search through the land, Go into the house of the loose woman, and get her out, and all who are with her, as you gave her your oath.

\w Then|strong="H3318"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w two|strong="H8147"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H0834"\w* \w been|strong="H0834"\w* \w sent|strong="H3318"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* make \w a|strong="H0935"\w* search \w through|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w*, \w Go|strong="H3318"\w* \w into|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w house|strong="H1004"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* loose \w woman|strong="H0802"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w get|strong="H3318"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w are|strong="H0834"\w* \w with|strong="H1004"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w*, \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w gave|strong="H0559"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w* \w your|strong="H3605"\w* \w oath|strong="H7650"\w*. 

So the searchers went in and got out Rahab and her father and mother and her brothers and all she had, and they got out all her family; and they took them outside the tents of Israel.

\w So|strong="H3318"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* searchers \w went|strong="H3318"\w* \w in|strong="H0935"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w got|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w Rahab|strong="H7343"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w* \w father|strong="H0001"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w mother|strong="H0517"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w* \w brothers|strong="H0251"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w she|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H0834"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w got|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w* \w family|strong="H4940"\w*; \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w took|strong="H3318"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w outside|strong="H2351"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* tents \w of|strong="H0001"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*. 

Then, after burning up the town and everything in it, they put the silver and gold and the vessels of brass and iron into the store-house of the Lord's house.

\w Then|strong="H5414"\w*, after \w burning|strong="H0784"\w* \w up|strong="H5414"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w everything|strong="H3605"\w* \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w it|strong="H5414"\w*, \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w put|strong="H5414"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w silver|strong="H3701"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w gold|strong="H2091"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w vessels|strong="H3627"\w* \w of|strong="H1004"\w* \w brass|strong="H5178"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w iron|strong="H1270"\w* \w into|strong="H5414"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* store-house \w of|strong="H1004"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* Lord's \w house|strong="H1004"\w*. 

But Joshua kept Rahab, the loose woman, and her father's family and all she had, from death, and so she got a living-place among the children of Israel to this day; because she kept safe the men whom Joshua had sent to make a search through the land.

\w But|strong="H3588"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* kept \w Rahab|strong="H7343"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w loose|strong="H7971"\w* \w woman|strong="H2088"\w*, \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w her|strong="H3605"\w* father's \w family|strong="H1004"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w she|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H0834"\w*, \w from|strong="H3478"\w* death, \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w so|strong="H7971"\w* \w she|strong="H0834"\w* got \w a|strong="H3588"\w* living-place \w among|strong="H7130"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* children \w of|strong="H1004"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w to|strong="H5704"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w*; \w because|strong="H3588"\w* \w she|strong="H0834"\w* kept safe \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w men|strong="H3605"\w* \w whom|strong="H0834"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w had|strong="H0834"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w to|strong="H5704"\w* \w make|strong="H3588"\w* \w a|strong="H3588"\w* search \w through|strong="H7130"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w land|strong="H7130"\w*. 

Then Joshua gave the people orders with an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed before the Lord who puts his hand to the building up of this town: with the loss of his first son will he put the first stone of it in place, and with the loss of his youngest son he will put up its doors.

\w Then|strong="H6965"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w gave|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H0376"\w* \w orders|strong="H0559"\w* \w with|strong="H3068"\w* \w an|strong="H1129"\w* \w oath|strong="H7650"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Let|strong="H6256"\w* \w that|strong="H0834"\w* \w man|strong="H0376"\w* \w be|strong="H0376"\w* \w cursed|strong="H0779"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w who|strong="H0834"\w* puts \w his|strong="H3068"\w* hand \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w building|strong="H1129"\w* \w up|strong="H6965"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w this|strong="H2063"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*: \w with|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* loss \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w his|strong="H3068"\w* \w first|strong="H6440"\w* \w son|strong="H6810"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w put|strong="H7650"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w first|strong="H6440"\w* \w stone|strong="H0834"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w it|strong="H1931"\w* \w in|strong="H3068"\w* place, \w and|strong="H6965"\w* \w with|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* loss \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w his|strong="H3068"\w* \w youngest|strong="H6810"\w* \w son|strong="H6810"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w put|strong="H7650"\w* \w up|strong="H6965"\w* \w its|strong="H0853"\w* \w doors|strong="H1817"\w*. 

So the Lord was with Joshua; and news of him went through all the land.

\w So|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w was|strong="H1961"\w* \w with|strong="H0854"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*; \w and|strong="H3068"\w* news \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w him|strong="H0854"\w* \w went|strong="H1961"\w* \w through|strong="H3605"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w*. 

But the children of Israel did wrong about the cursed thing: for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the family of Judah, took of the cursed thing, moving the Lord to wrath against the children of Israel.

\w But|strong="H3947"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* did wrong \w about|strong="H4480"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* cursed thing: \w for|strong="H3068"\w* \w Achan|strong="H5912"\w*, \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Carmi|strong="H3756"\w*, \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Zabdi|strong="H2067"\w*, \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Zerah|strong="H2226"\w*, \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* family \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Judah|strong="H3063"\w*, \w took|strong="H3947"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* cursed thing, moving \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w to|strong="H3068"\w* \w wrath|strong="H0639"\w* \w against|strong="H2734"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*. 

Now Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is by the side of Beth-aven, on the east side of Beth-el, and said to them, Go up and make a search through the land. And the men went up and saw how Ai was placed.

Now \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w from|strong="H0376"\w* \w Jericho|strong="H3405"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*, \w which|strong="H0834"\w* \w is|strong="H0834"\w* \w by|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w side|strong="H5973"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* Beth-aven, \w on|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w east|strong="H6924"\w* \w side|strong="H5973"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* Beth-el, \w and|strong="H0776"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*, \w Go|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w and|strong="H0776"\w* make \w a|strong="H7971"\w* search \w through|strong="H0776"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w*. \w And|strong="H0776"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w and|strong="H0776"\w* saw \w how|strong="H0834"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w* \w was|strong="H0834"\w* \w placed|strong="H5927"\w*. 

Then they came back to Joshua and said to him, Do not send all the people up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and make an attack on Ai; there is no need for all the people to be tired with the journey there, for it is only a small town.

Israel has done wrong, sinning against the agreement which I made with them: they have even taken of the cursed thing; acting falsely like thieves they have put it among their goods.

For this reason the children of Israel have given way, turning their backs in flight before their attackers, because they are cursed: I will no longer be with you, if you do not put the cursed thing away from among you.

Up! make the people holy; say to them, Make yourselves holy before tomorrow, for the Lord, the God of Israel, has said, There is a cursed thing among you, O Israel, and you will give way before your attackers in the fight till the cursed thing has been taken away from among you.

Then he made Judah come forward, and the family of the Zerahites was taken; and he made the family of the Zerahites come forward man by man; and Zabdi was taken;

\w Then|strong="H0853"\w* \w he|strong="H0853"\w* \w made|strong="H7126"\w* \w Judah|strong="H3063"\w* \w come|strong="H7126"\w* \w forward|strong="H7126"\w*, \w and|strong="H3063"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w family|strong="H4940"\w* \w of|strong="H4940"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Zerahites|strong="H2227"\w* \w was|strong="H3063"\w* \w taken|strong="H3920"\w*; \w and|strong="H3063"\w* \w he|strong="H0853"\w* \w made|strong="H7126"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w family|strong="H4940"\w* \w of|strong="H4940"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Zerahites|strong="H2227"\w* \w come|strong="H7126"\w* \w forward|strong="H7126"\w* \w man|strong="H1397"\w* \w by|strong="H7126"\w* \w man|strong="H1397"\w*; \w and|strong="H3063"\w* \w Zabdi|strong="H2067"\w* \w was|strong="H3063"\w* \w taken|strong="H3920"\w*;

And Joshua said to Achan, My son, give glory and praise to the Lord, the God of Israel; give me word now of what you have done, and keep nothing back from me.

\w And|strong="H1121"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Achan|strong="H5912"\w*, \w My|strong="H5414"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w*, \w give|strong="H5414"\w* \w glory|strong="H3519"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w praise|strong="H8426"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*; \w give|strong="H5414"\w* \w me|strong="H0413"\w* \w word|strong="H0559"\w* \w now|strong="H4994"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w what|strong="H4100"\w* \w you|strong="H5414"\w* \w have|strong="H1121"\w* \w done|strong="H6213"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w keep|strong="H6213"\w* \w nothing|strong="H0408"\w* \w back|strong="H0413"\w* \w from|strong="H4480"\w* \w me|strong="H0413"\w*. 

And Achan, answering, said to Joshua, Truly I have done wrong against the Lord, the God of Israel, and this is what I have done:

When I saw among their goods a fair robe of Babylon and two hundred shekels of silver, and a mass of gold, fifty shekels in weight, I was overcome by desire and took them; and they are put away in the earth in my tent, and the silver is under it.

\w When|strong="H7200"\w* \w I|strong="H2009"\w* \w saw|strong="H7200"\w* \w among|strong="H8432"\w* \w their|strong="H3947"\w* goods \w a|strong="H3947"\w* fair \w robe|strong="H0155"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* Babylon \w and|strong="H3967"\w* \w two|strong="H3947"\w* \w hundred|strong="H3967"\w* \w shekels|strong="H8255"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w silver|strong="H3701"\w*, \w and|strong="H3967"\w* \w a|strong="H3947"\w* mass \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w gold|strong="H2091"\w*, \w fifty|strong="H2572"\w* \w shekels|strong="H8255"\w* \w in|strong="H0776"\w* \w weight|strong="H4948"\w*, \w I|strong="H2009"\w* \w was|strong="H0776"\w* overcome \w by|strong="H0776"\w* \w desire|strong="H2530"\w* \w and|strong="H3967"\w* \w took|strong="H3947"\w* \w them|strong="H7200"\w*; \w and|strong="H3967"\w* \w they|strong="H0776"\w* \w are|strong="H0776"\w* \w put|strong="H3947"\w* \w away|strong="H3947"\w* \w in|strong="H0776"\w* \w the|strong="H7200"\w* \w earth|strong="H0776"\w* \w in|strong="H0776"\w* \w my|strong="H7200"\w* \w tent|strong="H0168"\w*, \w and|strong="H3967"\w* \w the|strong="H7200"\w* \w silver|strong="H3701"\w* \w is|strong="H0776"\w* \w under|strong="H8478"\w* \w it|strong="H7200"\w*. 

So Joshua sent men quickly, and looking in his tent, they saw where the robe had been put away secretly with the silver under it.

\w So|strong="H7971"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* men \w quickly|strong="H7323"\w*, \w and|strong="H3701"\w* looking \w in|strong="H3701"\w* \w his|strong="H7971"\w* \w tent|strong="H0168"\w*, \w they|strong="H7323"\w* \w saw|strong="H2009"\w* \w where|strong="H8478"\w* \w the|strong="H8478"\w* robe \w had|strong="H3091"\w* been \w put|strong="H7971"\w* \w away|strong="H7971"\w* \w secretly|strong="H2934"\w* \w with|strong="H7971"\w* \w the|strong="H8478"\w* \w silver|strong="H3701"\w* \w under|strong="H8478"\w* \w it|strong="H7971"\w*. 

And they took them from the tent and came back with them to Joshua and the children of Israel, and put them before the Lord.

\w And|strong="H1121"\w* \w they|strong="H3068"\w* \w took|strong="H3947"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w from|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w tent|strong="H0168"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w came|strong="H0935"\w* \w back|strong="H0935"\w* \w with|strong="H0413"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w put|strong="H0935"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*. 

Then Joshua and all Israel took Achan, the son of Zerah, and the silver and the robe and the mass of gold, and his sons and his daughters and his oxen and his asses and his sheep and his tent and everything he had; and they took them up into the valley of Achor.

\w Then|strong="H3947"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w took|strong="H3947"\w* \w Achan|strong="H5912"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w son|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Zerah|strong="H2226"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w silver|strong="H3701"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w robe|strong="H0155"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* mass \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w gold|strong="H2091"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w sons|strong="H1121"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w daughters|strong="H1323"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w oxen|strong="H7794"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* asses \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w sheep|strong="H6629"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w tent|strong="H0168"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w everything|strong="H3605"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H0834"\w*; \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w took|strong="H3947"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w into|strong="H1323"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w valley|strong="H6010"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Achor|strong="H5911"\w*. 

And Joshua said, Why have you been a cause of trouble to us? Today the Lord will send trouble on you. And all Israel took part in stoning him; they had him stoned to death and then burned with fire.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Why|strong="H4100"\w* \w have|strong="H3068"\w* \w you|strong="H3605"\w* \w been|strong="H3605"\w* \w a|strong="H2088"\w* cause \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w trouble|strong="H5916"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w us|strong="H3117"\w*? \w Today|strong="H3117"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* send \w trouble|strong="H5916"\w* \w on|strong="H3117"\w* \w you|strong="H3605"\w*. \w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w took|strong="H0853"\w* part \w in|strong="H3068"\w* \w stoning|strong="H5619"\w* \w him|strong="H0853"\w*; \w they|strong="H3117"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w him|strong="H0853"\w* \w stoned|strong="H5619"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w death|strong="H0068"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w then|strong="H2088"\w* \w burned|strong="H8313"\w* \w with|strong="H8313"\w* \w fire|strong="H0784"\w*. 

And over him they put a great mass of stones, which is there to this day; then the heat of the Lord's wrath was turned away. So that place was named, The Valley of Achor, to this day.

Then the Lord said to Joshua, Have no fear and do not be troubled: take with you all the fighting-men and go up against Ai: for I have given into your hands the king of Ai and his people and his town and his land:

And you are to do to Ai and its king as you did to Jericho and its king: but their goods and their cattle you may take for yourselves: let a secret force be stationed to make a surprise attack on the town from the back.

\w And|strong="H4428"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w are|strong="H0834"\w* \w to|strong="H4428"\w* \w do|strong="H6213"\w* \w to|strong="H4428"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w* \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w its|strong="H7760"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w* \w to|strong="H4428"\w* \w Jericho|strong="H3405"\w* \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w its|strong="H7760"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w*: \w but|strong="H7535"\w* \w their|strong="H7760"\w* goods \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w their|strong="H7760"\w* \w cattle|strong="H0929"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w may|strong="H0834"\w* \w take|strong="H7760"\w* \w for|strong="H4428"\w* yourselves: \w let|strong="H7760"\w* \w a|strong="H7760"\w* secret force \w be|strong="H4428"\w* \w stationed|strong="H7760"\w* \w to|strong="H4428"\w* \w make|strong="H7760"\w* \w a|strong="H7760"\w* surprise attack \w on|strong="H7760"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w from|strong="H0929"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w back|strong="H0310"\w*. 

So Joshua and the fighting-men got ready to go up against Ai; and Joshua took thirty thousand men of war, and sent them out by night.

\w So|strong="H7971"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w and|strong="H6965"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* fighting-men \w got|strong="H6965"\w* ready \w to|strong="H7971"\w* \w go|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w against|strong="H4421"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*; \w and|strong="H6965"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w took|strong="H5927"\w* \w thirty|strong="H7970"\w* \w thousand|strong="H0505"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w war|strong="H4421"\w*, \w and|strong="H6965"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w them|strong="H7971"\w* \w out|strong="H7971"\w* \w by|strong="H3605"\w* \w night|strong="H3915"\w*. 

And he gave them their orders, saying, Go and take up your position secretly at the back of the town: do not go very far away, and let all of you be ready:

\w And|strong="H7200"\w* \w he|strong="H0310"\w* \w gave|strong="H6680"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Go|strong="H1961"\w* \w and|strong="H7200"\w* \w take|strong="H1961"\w* \w up|strong="H7200"\w* \w your|strong="H3605"\w* \w position|strong="H3559"\w* secretly \w at|strong="H7200"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w back|strong="H0310"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*: \w do|strong="H0408"\w* \w not|strong="H0408"\w* \w go|strong="H1961"\w* \w very|strong="H3966"\w* \w far|strong="H7368"\w* \w away|strong="H0310"\w*, \w and|strong="H7200"\w* \w let|strong="H0408"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w you|strong="H0859"\w* \w be|strong="H1961"\w* \w ready|strong="H3559"\w*: 

And I and all the people with me will come near the town, and when they come out against us as they did before, we will go in flight from them;

\w And|strong="H6440"\w* \w I|strong="H0589"\w* \w and|strong="H6440"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w with|strong="H0854"\w* \w me|strong="H0413"\w* \w will|strong="H1961"\w* \w come|strong="H1961"\w* \w near|strong="H7126"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*, \w and|strong="H6440"\w* \w when|strong="H3588"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w come|strong="H1961"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w against|strong="H0413"\w* \w us|strong="H0413"\w* \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w did|strong="H0834"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w*, \w we|strong="H3588"\w* \w will|strong="H1961"\w* \w go|strong="H3318"\w* \w in|strong="H0413"\w* \w flight|strong="H5127"\w* \w from|strong="H3318"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*; 

And they will come out after us, till we have got them away from the town; for they will say, They have gone in flight from us as before; so we will go in flight before them;

Then you will get up from your secret position and take the town, for the Lord your God will give it up into your hands.

So Joshua sent them out: and they took up a secret position between Beth-el and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua kept with the people that night.

\w So|strong="H7971"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w out|strong="H7971"\w*: \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w they|strong="H5971"\w* took \w up|strong="H3915"\w* \w a|strong="H7971"\w* secret position \w between|strong="H0996"\w* Beth-el \w and|strong="H7971"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*, \w on|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* \w west|strong="H3220"\w* \w side|strong="H3220"\w* \w of|strong="H3427"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*: \w but|strong="H1931"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* kept \w with|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w that|strong="H1931"\w* \w night|strong="H3915"\w*. 

And early in the morning Joshua got up, and put the people in order, and he and the chiefs of Israel went up before the people to Ai.

\w And|strong="H3478"\w* \w early|strong="H7925"\w* \w in|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w morning|strong="H1242"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w got|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w*, \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w put|strong="H6485"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w in|strong="H3478"\w* order, \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w he|strong="H1931"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* chiefs \w of|strong="H2205"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w to|strong="H3478"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*. 

And all the fighting-men who were with him went up and came near the town, and took up a position on the north side of Ai facing the town, with a valley between him and the town.

\w And|strong="H0935"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* fighting-men \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w were|strong="H0834"\w* \w with|strong="H0854"\w* \w him|strong="H0935"\w* \w went|strong="H0935"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w came|strong="H0935"\w* \w near|strong="H5066"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w took|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w a|strong="H0935"\w* position \w on|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w north|strong="H6828"\w* \w side|strong="H6828"\w* \w of|strong="H3605"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w* facing \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*, \w with|strong="H0854"\w* \w a|strong="H0935"\w* \w valley|strong="H1516"\w* \w between|strong="H0996"\w* \w him|strong="H0935"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*. 

And taking about five thousand men, he put them in position for a surprise attack on the west side of Ai, between Beth-el and Ai.

\w And|strong="H0376"\w* \w taking|strong="H3947"\w* \w about|strong="H3947"\w* \w five|strong="H2568"\w* \w thousand|strong="H0505"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w*, \w he|strong="H0853"\w* \w put|strong="H7760"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w in|strong="H0693"\w* position \w for|strong="H0376"\w* \w a|strong="H3947"\w* surprise attack \w on|strong="H3220"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w west|strong="H3220"\w* \w side|strong="H3220"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*, \w between|strong="H0996"\w* Beth-el \w and|strong="H0376"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*. 

So all the people were in their places, the army on the north side of the town and the secret force on the west; and that night Joshua went down into the valley.

\w So|strong="H0834"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w were|strong="H0834"\w* \w in|strong="H8432"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w places|strong="H3605"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w army|strong="H4264"\w* \w on|strong="H3220"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w north|strong="H6828"\w* \w side|strong="H6828"\w* \w of|strong="H6010"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w and|strong="H3915"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* secret force \w on|strong="H3220"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w west|strong="H3220"\w*; \w and|strong="H3915"\w* \w that|strong="H0834"\w* \w night|strong="H3915"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* went \w down|strong="H7760"\w* \w into|strong="H8432"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w valley|strong="H6010"\w*. 

Now when the king of Ai saw it, he got up quickly and went out to war against Israel, he and all his people, to the slope going down to the valley; but he had no idea that a secret force was waiting at the back of the town.

\w Now|strong="H1961"\w* \w when|strong="H3588"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w* \w saw|strong="H7200"\w* \w it|strong="H1931"\w*, \w he|strong="H1931"\w* \w got|strong="H3318"\w* \w up|strong="H7200"\w* \w quickly|strong="H4116"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w went|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w to|strong="H1961"\w* \w war|strong="H4421"\w* \w against|strong="H6440"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, \w he|strong="H1931"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w*, \w to|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* slope \w going|strong="H3318"\w* \w down|strong="H6440"\w* \w to|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* valley; \w but|strong="H3588"\w* \w he|strong="H1931"\w* \w had|strong="H1961"\w* \w no|strong="H3808"\w* idea \w that|strong="H3588"\w* \w a|strong="H1961"\w* secret force \w was|strong="H1961"\w* waiting \w at|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w back|strong="H0310"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*. 

Then Joshua and all Israel, acting as if they were overcome before them, went in flight by way of the waste land.

\w Then|strong="H3605"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, acting \w as|strong="H6440"\w* if \w they|strong="H3605"\w* \w were|strong="H3478"\w* overcome \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w them|strong="H6440"\w*, \w went|strong="H6440"\w* \w in|strong="H3478"\w* \w flight|strong="H5127"\w* \w by|strong="H1870"\w* \w way|strong="H1870"\w* \w of|strong="H1870"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* waste \w land|strong="H6440"\w*. 

And all the people in Ai came together to go after them; and they went after Joshua, moving away from the town.

\w And|strong="H3091"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w in|strong="H3605"\w* Ai came \w together|strong="H2199"\w* \w to|strong="H4480"\w* go \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w them|strong="H0310"\w*; \w and|strong="H3091"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w went|strong="H7291"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, moving \w away|strong="H0310"\w* \w from|strong="H4480"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*. 

There was not a man in Ai and Beth-el who did not go out after Israel; and the town was open and unwatched while they went after Israel.

\w There|strong="H0834"\w* \w was|strong="H0834"\w* \w not|strong="H3808"\w* \w a|strong="H0834"\w* \w man|strong="H0376"\w* \w in|strong="H3478"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* Beth-el \w who|strong="H0834"\w* \w did|strong="H0834"\w* \w not|strong="H3808"\w* \w go|strong="H3318"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*; \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w was|strong="H0834"\w* \w open|strong="H6605"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* unwatched \w while|strong="H0834"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w went|strong="H3318"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*. 

And the Lord said to Joshua, Let your spear be stretched out against Ai; for I will give it into your hands. So Joshua took up his spear, stretching it out in the direction of the town.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w Let|strong="H5414"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w spear|strong="H3591"\w* \w be|strong="H3027"\w* \w stretched|strong="H5186"\w* \w out|strong="H5186"\w* \w against|strong="H0413"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*; \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w I|strong="H0834"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w give|strong="H5414"\w* \w it|strong="H5414"\w* \w into|strong="H0413"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w hands|strong="H3027"\w*. \w So|strong="H5414"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w took|strong="H5186"\w* \w up|strong="H5414"\w* \w his|strong="H5414"\w* \w spear|strong="H3591"\w*, \w stretching|strong="H5186"\w* \w it|strong="H5414"\w* \w out|strong="H5186"\w* \w in|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w direction|strong="H3027"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*. 

Then the secret force came quickly from their place, and running forward when they saw his hand stretched out, went into the town and took it, and put fire to it straight away.

\w Then|strong="H6965"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* secret \w force|strong="H3027"\w* \w came|strong="H0935"\w* \w quickly|strong="H4116"\w* \w from|strong="H0935"\w* \w their|strong="H0935"\w* \w place|strong="H4725"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w running|strong="H7323"\w* \w forward|strong="H0935"\w* \w when|strong="H0935"\w* \w they|strong="H0935"\w* saw \w his|strong="H0935"\w* \w hand|strong="H3027"\w* \w stretched|strong="H5186"\w* \w out|strong="H5186"\w*, \w went|strong="H0935"\w* \w into|strong="H0935"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w took|strong="H3920"\w* \w it|strong="H5186"\w*, \w and|strong="H0935"\w* \w put|strong="H0935"\w* \w fire|strong="H0784"\w* \w to|strong="H0935"\w* \w it|strong="H5186"\w* straight \w away|strong="H5186"\w*. 

Then the men of Ai, looking back, saw the smoke of the town going up to heaven, and were unable to go this way or that: and the people who had gone in flight to the waste land were turned back on those who were coming after them.

\w Then|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*, \w looking|strong="H7200"\w* \w back|strong="H6437"\w*, \w saw|strong="H7200"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* \w smoke|strong="H6227"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w going|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w heaven|strong="H8064"\w*, \w and|strong="H3027"\w* \w were|strong="H1961"\w* unable \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w go|strong="H5927"\w* \w this|strong="H2008"\w* \w way|strong="H2008"\w* \w or|strong="H3808"\w* \w that|strong="H7200"\w*: \w and|strong="H3027"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w who|strong="H0376"\w* \w had|strong="H1961"\w* \w gone|strong="H5927"\w* \w in|strong="H0413"\w* \w flight|strong="H5127"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0413"\w* waste \w land|strong="H8064"\w* \w were|strong="H1961"\w* \w turned|strong="H6437"\w* \w back|strong="H6437"\w* \w on|strong="H0413"\w* \w those|strong="H0376"\w* \w who|strong="H0376"\w* \w were|strong="H1961"\w* \w coming|strong="H5927"\w* \w after|strong="H0310"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*. 

And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the town had been taken by the surprise attack, and that the smoke of the town had gone up, turning round they overcame the men of Ai.

\w And|strong="H3478"\w* \w when|strong="H3588"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* \w saw|strong="H7200"\w* \w that|strong="H3588"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w had|strong="H3478"\w* \w been|strong="H5927"\w* \w taken|strong="H3920"\w* \w by|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* surprise \w attack|strong="H5221"\w*, \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w that|strong="H3588"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w smoke|strong="H6227"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w had|strong="H3478"\w* \w gone|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w*, \w turning|strong="H7725"\w* round \w they|strong="H3588"\w* overcame \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*. 

Then the other force came out of the town against them, so that they were being attacked on this side and on that: and Israel overcame them and let not one of them get away with his life.

\w Then|strong="H1961"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w other|strong="H2088"\w* force \w came|strong="H1961"\w* \w out|strong="H3318"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w* \w against|strong="H4480"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w*, \w so|strong="H4480"\w* \w that|strong="H4480"\w* \w they|strong="H5704"\w* \w were|strong="H1961"\w* \w being|strong="H1961"\w* \w attacked|strong="H5221"\w* \w on|strong="H1961"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* \w side|strong="H2088"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w on|strong="H1961"\w* \w that|strong="H4480"\w*: \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w* overcame \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w and|strong="H3478"\w* \w let|strong="H1961"\w* \w not|strong="H1115"\w* \w one|strong="H2088"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w get|strong="H3318"\w* \w away|strong="H4480"\w* \w with|strong="H3478"\w* \w his|strong="H1961"\w* life.

Then, after the destruction of all the people of Ai in the field and in the waste land where they went after them, and when all the people had been put to death without mercy, all Israel went back to Ai, and put to death all who were in it without mercy.

For Joshua did not take back his hand with the outstretched spear till the destruction of the people of Ai was complete.

\w For|strong="H3027"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w did|strong="H0834"\w* \w not|strong="H3808"\w* \w take|strong="H7725"\w* \w back|strong="H7725"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w hand|strong="H3027"\w* \w with|strong="H3027"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w outstretched|strong="H5186"\w* \w spear|strong="H3591"\w* \w till|strong="H5704"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* destruction \w of|strong="H3027"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H3427"\w* \w of|strong="H3027"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w* \w was|strong="H0834"\w* \w complete|strong="H3605"\w*.

So Joshua gave Ai to the flames, and made it a waste mass of stones for ever, as it is to this day.

And he put the king of Ai to death, hanging him on a tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave them orders to take his body down from the tree, and put it in the public place of the town, covering it with a great mass of stones, which is there to this day.

Then Joshua put up an altar to the Lord, the God of Israel, in Mount Ebal,

In the way ordered by Moses, the servant of the Lord, as it is recorded in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of uncut stones, untouched by any iron instrument: and on it they made burned offerings and peace-offerings to the Lord.

And he made there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, writing it before the eyes of the children of Israel.

And all Israel, those who were Israelites by birth, as well as the men from other lands living with them, and their responsible men and their overseers and judges, took their places round the ark, in front of the priests, the Levites, whose work it was to take up the ark of the Lord's agreement; half of them were stationed in front of Mount Gerizim and half in front of Mount Ebal, in agreement with the orders for the blessing of the children of Israel which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had given.

\w Now|strong="H6258"\w* \w because|strong="H4480"\w* \w of|strong="H1004"\w* \w this|strong="H6258"\w* \w you|strong="H0859"\w* \w are|strong="H0430"\w* \w cursed|strong="H0779"\w*, \w and|strong="H0430"\w* \w you|strong="H0859"\w* \w will|strong="H0430"\w* \w for|strong="H1004"\w* ever \w be|strong="H3808"\w* \w our|strong="H0430"\w* \w servants|strong="H5650"\w*, cutting \w wood|strong="H6086"\w* \w and|strong="H0430"\w* getting \w water|strong="H4325"\w* \w for|strong="H1004"\w* \w the|strong="H4480"\w* \w house|strong="H1004"\w* \w of|strong="H1004"\w* \w my|strong="H4480"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w*. 

And, answering Joshua, they said, Because it came to the ears of your servants that the Lord your God had given orders to his servant Moses to give you all this land, and to send destruction on all the people living in it, because of you; so, fearing greatly for our lives because of you, we have done this.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w*, answering \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Because|strong="H3588"\w* \w it|strong="H5414"\w* \w came|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* ears \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w servants|strong="H5650"\w* \w that|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w given|strong="H5414"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w servant|strong="H5650"\w* \w Moses|strong="H4872"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w give|strong="H5414"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w send|strong="H5414"\w* \w destruction|strong="H8045"\w* \w on|strong="H0776"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w people|strong="H5315"\w* \w living|strong="H3427"\w* \w in|strong="H3427"\w* \w it|strong="H5414"\w*, \w because|strong="H3588"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w*; \w so|strong="H6213"\w*, fearing \w greatly|strong="H3966"\w* \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w our|strong="H3068"\w* \w lives|strong="H5315"\w* \w because|strong="H3588"\w* \w of|strong="H0776"\w* \w you|strong="H0834"\w*, \w we|strong="H3588"\w* \w have|strong="H0834"\w* \w done|strong="H6213"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w*. 

And now we are in your hands: do to us whatever seems good and right to you.

So he kept them safe from the children of Israel, and did not let them be put to death.

\w So|strong="H3651"\w* \w he|strong="H3651"\w* \w kept|strong="H6213"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* safe \w from|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w* \w not|strong="H3808"\w* \w let|strong="H3808"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w be|strong="H3808"\w* \w put|strong="H3027"\w* \w to|strong="H3478"\w* death. 

And that day Joshua made them servants, cutting wood and getting water for the people and for the altar of the Lord, in the place marked out by him, to this day.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w that|strong="H0834"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w made|strong="H5414"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* servants, cutting \w wood|strong="H6086"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* getting \w water|strong="H4325"\w* \w for|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w people|strong="H0834"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w for|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w altar|strong="H4196"\w* \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w in|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H0834"\w* \w place|strong="H4725"\w* marked \w out|strong="H0413"\w* \w by|strong="H3068"\w* \w him|strong="H0413"\w*, \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w this|strong="H2088"\w* \w day|strong="H3117"\w*. 

Now when it came to the ears of Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, that Joshua had taken Ai, and had given it up to the curse (for as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king); and that the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them;

He was in great fear, because Gibeon was a great town, like one of the king's towns, greater than Ai, and all the men in it were men of war.

\w He|strong="H1931"\w* \w was|strong="H1931"\w* \w in|strong="H0376"\w* \w great|strong="H1419"\w* \w fear|strong="H3372"\w*, \w because|strong="H3588"\w* \w Gibeon|strong="H1391"\w* \w was|strong="H1931"\w* \w a|strong="H3588"\w* \w great|strong="H1419"\w* \w town|strong="H5892"\w*, \w like|strong="H0376"\w* \w one|strong="H0259"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* king's \w towns|strong="H5892"\w*, \w greater|strong="H1419"\w* \w than|strong="H4480"\w* \w Ai|strong="H5857"\w*, \w and|strong="H1419"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w in|strong="H0376"\w* \w it|strong="H1931"\w* \w were|strong="H0376"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* war. 

So Adoni-zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent to Hoham, king of Hebron, and to Piram, king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon, saying,

\w So|strong="H7971"\w* \w Adoni-zedek|strong="H0139"\w*, \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Jerusalem|strong="H3389"\w*, \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Hoham|strong="H1944"\w*, \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Hebron|strong="H2275"\w*, \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Piram|strong="H6502"\w*, \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Jarmuth|strong="H3412"\w*, \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Japhia|strong="H3309"\w*, \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Lachish|strong="H3923"\w*, \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Debir|strong="H1688"\w*, \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Eglon|strong="H5700"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, 

Come up to me and give me help, and let us make an attack on Gibeon: for they have made peace with Joshua and the children of Israel.

\w Come|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w me|strong="H0413"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w give|strong="H5927"\w* \w me|strong="H0413"\w* \w help|strong="H5826"\w*, \w and|strong="H1121"\w* let \w us|strong="H0413"\w* \w make|strong="H3588"\w* \w an|strong="H3588"\w* \w attack|strong="H5221"\w* \w on|strong="H0413"\w* \w Gibeon|strong="H1391"\w*: \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w they|strong="H3588"\w* \w have|strong="H1121"\w* \w made|strong="H5221"\w* peace \w with|strong="H0854"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w and|strong="H1121"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w children|strong="H1121"\w* \w of|strong="H1121"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*. 

So the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, were banded together, and went up with all their armies and took up their position before Gibeon and made war against it.

\w So|strong="H5927"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w five|strong="H2568"\w* \w kings|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Amorites|strong="H0567"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Jerusalem|strong="H3389"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Hebron|strong="H2275"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Jarmuth|strong="H3412"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Lachish|strong="H3923"\w*, \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Eglon|strong="H5700"\w*, \w were|strong="H1992"\w* banded \w together|strong="H0622"\w*, \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w with|strong="H5921"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w armies|strong="H4264"\w* \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w took|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* position \w before|strong="H5921"\w* \w Gibeon|strong="H1391"\w* \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w made|strong="H3605"\w* war \w against|strong="H5921"\w* \w it|strong="H5921"\w*. 

And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, saying, Be not slow to send help to your servants; come up quickly to our support and keep us safe: for all the kings of the Amorites from the hill-country have come together against us.

\w And|strong="H3027"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w men|strong="H0376"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Gibeon|strong="H1391"\w* \w sent|strong="H7971"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* tent-circle \w at|strong="H0413"\w* \w Gilgal|strong="H1537"\w*, \w saying|strong="H0559"\w*, \w Be|strong="H0408"\w* \w not|strong="H0408"\w* slow \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w send|strong="H7971"\w* \w help|strong="H5826"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w your|strong="H3605"\w* \w servants|strong="H5650"\w*; \w come|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w quickly|strong="H4120"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w our|strong="H3605"\w* \w support|strong="H5826"\w* \w and|strong="H3027"\w* keep \w us|strong="H0413"\w* \w safe|strong="H3467"\w*: \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w kings|strong="H4428"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Amorites|strong="H0567"\w* \w from|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* hill-country \w have|strong="H0376"\w* \w come|strong="H5927"\w* \w together|strong="H6908"\w* \w against|strong="H0413"\w* \w us|strong="H0413"\w*. 

So Joshua went up from Gilgal with all his army and all his men of war.

\w So|strong="H4480"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w went|strong="H5927"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w from|strong="H4480"\w* \w Gilgal|strong="H1537"\w* \w with|strong="H5973"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w army|strong="H2428"\w* \w and|strong="H3091"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w men|strong="H1368"\w* \w of|strong="H4480"\w* \w war|strong="H4421"\w*. 

And the Lord said to Joshua, Have no fear of them, for I have given them into your hands; they will all give way before you.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0559"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w Have|strong="H0376"\w* \w no|strong="H3808"\w* \w fear|strong="H3372"\w* \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*, \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w I|strong="H3588"\w* \w have|strong="H0376"\w* \w given|strong="H5414"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w* \w into|strong="H0413"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w hands|strong="H3027"\w*; \w they|strong="H1992"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w all|strong="H0376"\w* \w give|strong="H5414"\w* \w way|strong="H6440"\w* \w before|strong="H6440"\w* \w you|strong="H3588"\w*. 

So Joshua, having come up from Gilgal all night, made a sudden attack on them.

\w So|strong="H4480"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, having \w come|strong="H0935"\w* \w up|strong="H5927"\w* \w from|strong="H4480"\w* \w Gilgal|strong="H1537"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w night|strong="H3915"\w*, \w made|strong="H3605"\w* \w a|strong="H0935"\w* \w sudden|strong="H6597"\w* \w attack|strong="H5927"\w* \w on|strong="H0413"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*. 

And the Lord made them full of fear before Israel, and they put great numbers of them to death at Gibeon, and went after them by the way going up to Beth-horon, driving them back to Azekah and Makkedah

And in their flight before Israel, on the way down from Beth-horon, the Lord sent down great stones from heaven on them all the way to Azekah, causing their death: those whose death was caused by the stones were more than those whom the children of Israel put to death with the sword.

It was on the day when the Lord gave up the Amorites into the hands of the children of Israel that Joshua said to the Lord, before the eyes of Israel, Sun, be at rest over Gibeon; and you, O moon, in the valley of Aijalon.

And the sun was at rest and the moon kept its place till the nation had given punishment to their attackers. (Is it not recorded in the book of Jashar?) So the sun kept its place in the middle of the heavens, and was waiting, and did not go down, for the space of a day.

All the people went back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Makkedah in peace: and no one said a word against the children of Israel.

Then Joshua said, Take away the stones from the mouth of the hole in the rock, and make those five kings come out to me.

And they did so, and made those five kings come out of the hole to him, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.

And when they had made those kings come out to Joshua, Joshua sent for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, Come near and put your feet on the necks of these kings. So they came near and put their feet on their necks.

And Joshua said to them, Have no fear and do not be troubled; be strong and take heart: for so will the Lord do to all against whom you make war.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w them|strong="H0413"\w*, \w Have|strong="H0834"\w* \w no|strong="H0408"\w* \w fear|strong="H3372"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w do|strong="H6213"\w* \w not|strong="H0408"\w* \w be|strong="H0408"\w* troubled; \w be|strong="H0408"\w* \w strong|strong="H2388"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w take|strong="H2388"\w* heart: \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w so|strong="H6213"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w do|strong="H6213"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w against|strong="H0413"\w* \w whom|strong="H0834"\w* \w you|strong="H0859"\w* \w make|strong="H6213"\w* war. 

Then Joshua had them put to death, hanging them on five trees, where they were till evening.

And when the sun went down, they were taken down from the trees, by Joshua's orders, and put into the hole where they had gone to be safe; and great stones were placed at the mouth of the hole, where they are to this day.

That day Joshua took Makkedah, and put it and its king to the sword; every soul in it he gave up to the curse without mercy: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.

And again the Lord gave it and its king into the hands of Israel; and he put it and every person in it to the sword, till their destruction was complete; and he did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.

Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to the help of Lachish; and Joshua overcame him and his people, putting all of them to death.

And Joshua and all Israel with him went on from Lachish to Eglon: and they took up their position against it and made an attack on it;

And took it, overcoming it and putting it and its king and its towns and every person in it to the sword: as he had done to Eglon, he put them all to death, and gave it up to the curse with every person in it.

And he took it, with its king and all its towns: and he put them to the sword, giving every person in it to the curse; all were put to death: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king.

So Joshua overcame all the land, the hill-country and the South and the lowland and the mountain slopes, and all their kings; all were put to death: and every living thing he gave up to the curse, as the Lord, the God of Israel, had given him orders.

\w So|strong="H3808"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* overcame \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* hill-country \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w South|strong="H5045"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w lowland|strong="H8219"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w mountain|strong="H2022"\w* \w slopes|strong="H0794"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w kings|strong="H4428"\w*; \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w were|strong="H0834"\w* \w put|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H3068"\w* death: \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w every|strong="H3605"\w* living \w thing|strong="H3605"\w* \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w gave|strong="H6680"\w* \w up|strong="H0853"\w* \w to|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* curse, \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w given|strong="H6680"\w* \w him|strong="H5221"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w*. 

Joshua overcame them from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza, and all the land of Goshen as far as Gibeon.

And all these kings and their land Joshua took at the same time, because the Lord, the God of Israel, was fighting for Israel.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w these|strong="H0428"\w* \w kings|strong="H4428"\w* \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w their|strong="H3605"\w* \w land|strong="H0776"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w took|strong="H3920"\w* \w at|strong="H3478"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w same|strong="H0259"\w* \w time|strong="H6471"\w*, \w because|strong="H3588"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w*, \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*, \w was|strong="H3068"\w* \w fighting|strong="H3898"\w* \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w Israel|strong="H3478"\w*.

And the Lord said to Joshua, Have no fear of them: for tomorrow at this time I will give them all up dead before Israel; you are to have the leg-muscles of their horses cut and their war-carriages burned with fire.

So Joshua and all the men of war with him came against them suddenly at the waters of Merom, and made an attack on them.

And the Lord gave them up into the hands of Israel, and they overcame them driving them back to great Zidon and to Misrephoth-maim and into the valley of Mizpeh to the east; and they put them all to death, no man got away safely.

And Joshua did to them as the Lord had said to him; he had the leg-muscles of their horses cut and their war-carriages burned with fire.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w as|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0559"\w* \w him|strong="H0853"\w*; \w he|strong="H0834"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* leg-muscles \w of|strong="H3068"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* \w horses|strong="H5483"\w* cut \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w their|strong="H3068"\w* war-carriages \w burned|strong="H8313"\w* \w with|strong="H8313"\w* \w fire|strong="H0784"\w*. 

At that time, Joshua went on to take Hazor and put its king to the sword: for in earlier times Hazor was the chief of all those kingdoms.

\w At|strong="H4428"\w* \w that|strong="H3588"\w* \w time|strong="H6256"\w*, \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w went|strong="H7725"\w* \w on|strong="H3605"\w* \w to|strong="H7725"\w* \w take|strong="H7725"\w* \w Hazor|strong="H2674"\w* \w and|strong="H4428"\w* \w put|strong="H7725"\w* \w its|strong="H3605"\w* \w king|strong="H4428"\w* \w to|strong="H7725"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w sword|strong="H2719"\w*: \w for|strong="H3588"\w* \w in|strong="H4428"\w* earlier \w times|strong="H6256"\w* \w Hazor|strong="H2674"\w* \w was|strong="H1931"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w chief|strong="H7218"\w* \w of|strong="H4428"\w* \w all|strong="H3605"\w* \w those|strong="H0428"\w* \w kingdoms|strong="H4467"\w*. 

And they put every person in it to death without mercy, giving every living thing up to the curse, and burning Hazor.

\w And|strong="H2719"\w* \w they|strong="H0834"\w* \w put|strong="H6310"\w* \w every|strong="H3605"\w* \w person|strong="H5315"\w* \w in|strong="H5315"\w* \w it|strong="H0834"\w* \w to|strong="H5315"\w* \w death|strong="H5315"\w* \w without|strong="H3808"\w* mercy, giving \w every|strong="H3605"\w* \w living|strong="H5315"\w* \w thing|strong="H3605"\w* \w up|strong="H0853"\w* \w to|strong="H5315"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* curse, \w and|strong="H2719"\w* \w burning|strong="H0784"\w* \w Hazor|strong="H2674"\w*. 

And all the towns of these kings, and all the kings, Joshua took, and put them to the sword: he gave them up to the curse, as Moses, the servant of the Lord, had said.

As for the towns made on hills of earth, not one was burned by Israel but Hazor, which was burned by Joshua.

And all the goods taken from these towns, and their cattle, the children of Israel kept for themselves; but every man they put to death without mercy, till their destruction was complete, and there was no one living.

As the Lord had given orders to Moses his servant, so Moses gave orders to Joshua, and so Joshua did; every order which the Lord had given to Moses was done.

\w As|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w given|strong="H6680"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H3068"\w* \w Moses|strong="H4872"\w* \w his|strong="H3605"\w* \w servant|strong="H5650"\w*, \w so|strong="H3651"\w* \w Moses|strong="H4872"\w* \w gave|strong="H6680"\w* \w orders|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H3068"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w so|strong="H3651"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w* \w did|strong="H6213"\w*; \w every|strong="H3605"\w* \w order|strong="H6680"\w* \w which|strong="H0834"\w* \w the|strong="H3605"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w had|strong="H3068"\w* \w given|strong="H6680"\w* \w to|strong="H3068"\w* \w Moses|strong="H4872"\w* \w was|strong="H0834"\w* \w done|strong="H6213"\w*. 

So Joshua took all that land, the hill-country and all the South, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowland and the Arabah, the hill-country of Israel and its lowland;

Then the children of Judah went to Joshua in Gilgal; and Caleb, the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite, said to him, You have knowledge of what the Lord said to Moses, the man of God, about me and about you in Kadesh-barnea.

I was forty years old when Moses, the servant of the Lord, sent me from Kadesh-barnea to make a search through the land; and the account which I gave him was in keeping with his desire.

My brothers, however, who went up with me, made the heart of the people like water: but I was true to the Lord with all my heart.

And on that day Moses took an oath, saying, Truly the land where your feet have been placed will become a heritage for you and your children for ever, because you have been true to the Lord your God with all your heart.

And now, as you see, the Lord has kept me safe these forty-five years, from the time when the Lord said this to Moses, while Israel was wandering in the waste land: and now I am eighty-five years old.

So now, give me this hill-country named by the Lord at that time; for you had an account of it then, how the Anakim were there, and great walled towns: it may be that the Lord will be with me, and I will be able to take their land, as the Lord said.

And to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, he gave a part among the children of Judah, as the Lord had given orders to Joshua, that is, Kiriath-arba, named after Arba, the father of Anak which is Hebron.

Now when she came to him, he put into her mind the idea of requesting a field from her father: and she got down from her ass; and Caleb said to her, What is it?

Then Joshua said to them, If you are such a great people, go up into the woodlands, clearing a place there for yourselves in the land of the Perizzites and the Rephaim, if the hill-country of Ephraim is not wide enough for you.

And the children of Joseph said, The hill-country is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites living in the valley have iron war-carriages, those in Beth-shean and its towns as well as those in the valley of Jezreel.

And all the meeting of the children of Israel came together at Shiloh and put up the Tent of meeting there: and the land was crushed before them.

But there were still seven tribes among the children of Israel who had not taken up their heritage.

Take from among you three men from every tribe; and I will send them to go through the land and make a record of it for distribution as their heritage; then let them come back to me.

And let them make division of it into seven parts: let Judah keep inside his limit on the south, and let the children of Joseph keep inside their limit on the north.

For the Levites have no part among you; to be the Lord's priests is their heritage; and Gad and Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have had their heritage on the east side of Jordan, given to them by Moses, the servant of the Lord.

So the men got up and went; and Joshua gave orders to those who went, to make a record of the land, saying, Go up and down through the land, and make a record of it and come back here to me, and I will make the distribution for you here by the decision of the Lord in Shiloh.

So the men went, travelling through the land, and made a record of it by towns in seven parts in a book, and came back to Joshua to the tent-circle at Shiloh.

And Joshua made the distribution for them in Shiloh by the decision of the Lord, marking out the land for the children of Israel by their divisions.

And the first heritage came out for the tribe of Benjamin by their families: and the limit of their heritage went between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph.

And the limit is marked as coming round to the south on the west side from the mountain which is south of Beth-horon, and ending at Kiriath-baal (which is Kiriath-jearim), a town of the children of Judah: this is the west part.

(But the limit of the children of Dan was not wide enough for them; so the children of Dan went up and made war on Leshem and took it, putting it to the sword without mercy, and they took it for their heritage and made a place for themselves there, giving it the name of Leshem-dan, after the name of their father, Dan.)

These are the heritages which Eleazar the priest and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the heads of families of the tribes of the children of Israel gave out at Shiloh, by the decision of the Lord, at the door of the Tent of meeting. So the distribution of the land was complete.

So that any man who in error and without design has taken the life of another, may go in flight to them: and they will be safe places for you from him who has the right of punishment for blood.

And if anyone goes in flight to one of those towns, and comes into the public place of the town, and puts his cause before the responsible men of the town, they will take him into the town and give him a place among them where he may be safe.

And if the one who has the right of punishment comes after him, they are not to give the taker of life up to him; because he was the cause of his neighbour's death without designing it and not in hate.

And he is to go on living in that town till he has to come before the meeting of the people to be judged; (till the death of him who is high priest at that time:) then the taker of life may come back to his town and to his house, to the town from which he had gone in flight.

And the children of Israel were pleased about this; and they gave praise to God, and had no more thought of going to war against the children of Reuben and the children of Gad for the destruction of their land.

The Lord your God will send them away by force, driving them out before you; and you are to take their land for your heritage, as the Lord your God said to you.

One man of you is able to put to flight a thousand; for it is the Lord your God who is fighting for you, as he has said to you.

So keep watch on yourselves, and see that you have love for the Lord your God.

\w So|strong="H3966"\w* \w keep|strong="H8104"\w* \w watch|strong="H8104"\w* \w on|strong="H3068"\w* \w yourselves|strong="H5315"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* see \w that|strong="H3068"\w* \w you|strong="H0853"\w* \w have|strong="H3068"\w* \w love|strong="H0157"\w* \w for|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w your|strong="H3068"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w*. 

For if you go back, joining yourselves to the rest of these nations who are still among you, getting married to them and living with them and they with you:

Then you went over Jordan and came to Jericho: and the men of Jericho made war on you, the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Hivites and the Jebusites: and I gave them up into your hands.

And I sent the hornet before you, driving out the two kings of the Amorites before you, not with your sword and your bow.

So now, go in fear of the Lord, and be his servants with true hearts: put away the gods worshipped by your fathers across the River and in Egypt, and be servants of the Lord.

And if it seems evil to you to be the servants of the Lord, make the decision this day whose servants you will be: of the gods whose servants your fathers were across the River, or of the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living: but I and my house will be the servants of the Lord.

And Joshua said to the people, You are not able to be the servants of the Lord, for he is a holy God, a God who will not let his honour be given to another: he will have no mercy on your wrongdoing or your sins.

If you are turned away from the Lord and become the servants of strange gods, then turning against you he will do you evil, cutting you off, after he has done you good.

\w And|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w people|strong="H5971"\w* \w said|strong="H0559"\w* \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w Joshua|strong="H3091"\w*, \w We|strong="H8085"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w be|strong="H3068"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w servants|strong="H5647"\w* \w of|strong="H0430"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* \w Lord|strong="H3068"\w* \w our|strong="H3068"\w* \w God|strong="H0430"\w*, \w and|strong="H3068"\w* \w we|strong="H8085"\w* \w will|strong="H3068"\w* \w give|strong="H8085"\w* ear \w to|strong="H0413"\w* \w his|strong="H3068"\w* \w voice|strong="H6963"\w*. 

So Joshua made an agreement with the people that day, and gave them a rule and a law in Shechem.

And Joshua put these words on record, writing them in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and put it up there under the oak-tree which was in the holy place of the Lord.

And Joshua said to all the people, See now, this stone is to be a witness against us; for all the words of the Lord have been said to us in its hearing: so it will be a witness against you if you are false to the Lord your God.

And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel had taken up from Egypt, they put in the earth in Shechem, in the property which Jacob had got from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for a hundred shekels: and they became the heritage of the children of Joseph.
