\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
after
the
death
of
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah,
that
Jehovah
spoke
to
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun, Moses'
attendant,
saying,
\VS{2}Moses
my
servant
is
dead;
and
now,
rise
up,
go
over
this
Jordan, thou
and
all
this
people,
into
the
land
which
I
give unto
them,
to
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{3}Every
place whereon
the
sole
of
your
foot
shall
tread
have
I
given
to
you,
as
I
said unto
Moses.
\VS{4}From
the
wilderness
and
this
Lebanon
to
the
great
river,
the
river
Euphrates,
the
whole
land
of
the
Hittites,
to
the
great
sea,
toward
the going down
of
the
sun,
shall
be
your
border.
\VS{5}None
shall
be able
to
stand
before thee
all
the
days
of thy
life:
as
I
was
with
Moses,
so
will
I
be
with thee;
I
will
not
leave thee,
neither
will
I
forsake thee.
\VS{6}Be
strong
and
courageous,
for thou shalt
cause
this
people
to
inherit
the
land
which
I
have
sworn unto
their
fathers
to
give
them.
\VS{7}Only
be
strong
and
very
courageous,
that thou mayest
take
heed
to
do
according
to
all
the
law
that
Moses
my
servant
commanded thee.
Turn
not
from
it
to
the
right
or
to
the
left,
that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
\VS{8}This
book
of
the
law
shall
not
depart
from thy
mouth;
and thou shalt
meditate upon
it
day
and
night,
that thou mayest
take
heed
to
do
according
to
all
that
is
written therein;
for
then shalt thou
have good
success
in thy
ways,
and
then shalt thou
prosper.
\VS{9}Have
I
not
commanded thee:
Be
strong
and
courageous?
Be
not afraid,
neither
be
dismayed;
for
Jehovah thy
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:9 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
is
with thee whithersoever thou goest.
\VS{10}And
Joshua
commanded
the
officers
of
the
people,
saying,
\VS{11}Go
through
the
midst
of
the
camp,
and
command
the
people,
saying,
Prepare
yourselves victuals,
for
in
three
days ye
shall
pass
over
this
Jordan,
that ye
may
enter
in
to
take
possession
of
the
land
which
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:11 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God giveth
you
to
possess
it.
\VS{12}And
to
the
Reubenites
and
to
the
Gadites
and
to
half
the
tribe
of
Manasseh
spoke
Joshua,
saying,
\VS{13}Remember
the
word
that
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
commanded
you,
saying,
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:13 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
has
given
you
rest
and
has
given
you
this
land.
\VS{14}Your
wives,
your
little
ones,
and
your
cattle
shall
abide
in
the
land
that
Moses
gave
you
on
this
side
of
the
Jordan,
but ye,
all
the
valiant
men,
shall
go
over
in
array
before
your
brethren
and
help
them,
\VS{15}until
Jehovah
give
your
brethren
rest
as
to
you,
and
they
also
take
possession
of
the
land
which
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:15 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God giveth
them;
then
shall ye
return
into
the
land
of
your
possession
and
possess
it,
which
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
gave
you
on
this
side
of
the
Jordan
toward
the sun-rising.
\VS{16}And
they
answered
Joshua,
saying,
All
that thou hast
commanded
us
will
we
do,
and whither thou shalt
send
us
will
we
go.
\VS{17}According
as
we hearkened
to
Moses
in
all
things,
so
will
we hearken
to thee;
only
may
Jehovah thy
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 1:17 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
be
with thee
as
he
was
with
Moses.
\VS{18}Every
one
that
is
rebellious
against thy
commandment
and hearkeneth
not
to thy
words
in
everything
that thou commandest
us,
shall
be
put
to
death.
Only
be
strong
and
courageous.

\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun
sent
from
Shittim
two
spies
secretly,
saying,
Go,
see
the
land,
even
Jericho.
And
they
went,
and
came
into
a harlot's
house,
named
Rahab,
and
they
lay
down
there.
\VS{2}And
it
was
told
the
king
of
Jericho,
saying,
Behold,
men
have
come hither to-night
from
the
children
of
Israel
to
search
out
the
land.
\VS{3}And
the
king
of
Jericho
sent
to
Rahab,
saying,
Bring
forth
the
men
that
have
come
to thee,
who
have
come
into thy
house:
for
they
have
come
to
search
out
all
the
land.
\VS{4}And
the
woman
had
taken
and
concealed
the
two
men;
and
she
said,
Yes,
the
men
did
come unto
me,
but
I
knew
not whence
they
were;
\VS{5}and
it
came
to
pass
when
the
gate
had
to
be
closed,
at
dark,
that
the
men
went
out:
I
know
not whither
the
men
have
gone.
Pursue
after
them
quickly;
for ye
shall
overtake
them.
\VS{6}But
she
had
taken
them
up
to
the
roof,
and secreted
them
under
the
stalks
of
flax,
which
she
had
laid
out
on
the
roof.
\VS{7}And
the
men
pursued
after
them
the
way
to
the
Jordan,
to
the fords;
and
when
they
who
pursued
after
them
had
gone
out,
they
closed
the
gate.
\VS{8}And
before
they
had
lain
down,
she
went
up
to
them
upon
the
roof;
\VS{9}and
said
to
the
men,
I
know
that
Jehovah
has
given
you
the
land,
and
that
the
dread
of
you
has
fallen
on
us,
and
that
all
the
inhabitants
of
the
land faint
because
of
you.
\VS{10}For
we
have
heard
that
Jehovah
dried
up
the
waters
of
the Red
sea
before
you
when ye
came
out
of
Egypt;
and
what ye
did
to
the
two
kings
of
the
Amorites
that
were
beyond
the
Jordan,
to
Sihon
and
to
Og,
whom ye utterly destroyed.
\VS{11}We
heard [of
it],
and
our
heart
melted,
and
there
remained
no
more
spirit
in
any
man
because
of
you;
for
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:11 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God,
he
is
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 2:11 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
in
the
heavens
above
and
on
the
earth
beneath.
\VS{12}And
now,
I
pray
you,
swear
to
me
by
Jehovah,
since
I
have dealt kindly
with
you,
that ye
will
also
deal kindly
with
my father's
house,
and
give
me
a certain
sign,
\VS{13}that ye
will
let
my
father
live,
and
my
mother,
and
my
brethren,
and
my
sisters,
and
all
that belong
to
them,
and
deliver
our
souls
from
death.
\VS{14}And
the
men
said
to
her,
Our
lives
shall
pay
for
yours,
if ye
do
not
make
this
our
business
known;
and
it
shall
be
when
Jehovah
shall
give
us
the
land,
that
we
will
deal kindly
and
truly
with thee.
\VS{15}And
she
let
them
down
by
a
cord
through
the
window;
for
her
house
was
upon
the city-wall,
and
she
dwelt
upon
the
wall.
\VS{16}And
she
said
to
them,
Go
to
the
mountain,
that
the
pursuers
may
not
meet
with
you;
and
hide
yourselves
there
three
days,
until
the
pursuers
have
returned;
and
afterwards
go
your
way.
\VS{17}And
the
men
said
to
her,
We
will
be quit
of
this thine
oath
which thou hast
made
us
swear.
\VS{18}Behold,
when
we
come
into
the
land, thou shalt
bind
in
the
window
this
line
of
scarlet
thread
by
which thou hast
let
us
down;
and thou shalt
gather
to thee
in
the
house thy
father,
and thy
mother,
and thy
brethren,
and
all thy father's
household;
\VS{19}and
it
shall
be,
that
whoever
shall
go
out
of
the
doors
of thy
house
into
the
street, —
his
blood
shall
be
upon
his
head,
and
we
shall
be
innocent;
but
every
one
who
shall
be
with thee
in
the
house,
his
blood
shall
be
upon
our
head,
if
any
hand
be
upon
him.
\VS{20}And
if thou
make
known
this
our
business,
we
will
be quit
of thine
oath
which thou hast
made
us
swear.
\VS{21}And
she
said, According
to
your
words,
so
be
it.
And
she
sent
them
away,
and
they departed.
And
she
bound
the
scarlet line
in
the
window.
\VS{22}And
they
went,
and
came
to
the
mountain,
and
remained
there
three
days,
until
the
pursuers
had
returned;
and
the
pursuers
sought
them
all
the
way,
and
found
them
not.
\VS{23}And
the
two
men
returned
and
came
down
from
the
mountain,
and
went
over
and
came
to
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun,
and
related
to
him
everything
that
had
happened
to
them.
\VS{24}And
they
said
to
Joshua,
Of
a surety
Jehovah
has
given
the
whole
land
into
our
hands,
and
even
all
the
inhabitants
of
the
land faint
because
of
us.

\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
Joshua
rose
early
in
the
morning;
and
they
removed
from
Shittim,
and
came
to
the
Jordan,
he
and
all
the
children
of
Israel,
and lodged
there
before
they
passed
over.
\VS{2}And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
end
of
three
days,
that
the
officers
went
through
the
camp;
\VS{3}and
they
commanded
the
people,
saying,
When ye
see
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:3 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God,
and
the
priests
the
Levites
bearing
it,
then remove
from
your
place,
and
go
after
it;
\VS{4}yet
there
shall
be
a
distance
between
you
and
it,
about
two
thousand
cubits
by
measure. Ye
shall
not
come
near
it,
that ye
may
know
the
way
by
which ye
must
go;
for ye
have
not
passed
this
way heretofore.
\VS{5}And
Joshua
said
to
the
people, Hallow
yourselves;
for to-morrow
Jehovah
will
do
wonders
in
your
midst.
\VS{6}And
Joshua
spoke
to
the
priests,
saying,
Take
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
go
over
before
the
people.
And
they
took
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
went
before
the
people.
\VS{7}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
This
day
will
I
begin
to
magnify thee
in
the
sight
of
all
Israel,
that
they
may
know
that
as
I
was
with
Moses,
so
will
I
be
with thee.
\VS{8}And thou shalt
command
the
priests
who
bear
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
saying,
When ye
come
to
the edge
of
the
waters
of
the
Jordan,
stand
still
in
the
Jordan.
\VS{9}And
Joshua
said
to
the
children
of
Israel,
Come hither,
and
hear
the
words
of
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 3:9 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{10}And
Joshua
said, Hereby
shall ye
know
that
the
living
\FTNT{*}{{\FR 3:10 }

El|strong="H0410"}God
is
in
your
midst,
and [that]
he
will without fail
dispossess
from
before
you
the
Canaanites,
and
the
Hittites,
and
the
Hivites,
and
the
Perizzites,
and
the
Girgashites,
and
the
Amorites,
and
the
Jebusites.
\VS{11}Behold,
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth
is going
over
before
you
into
the
Jordan.
\VS{12}And
now
take
you
twelve
men
out
of
the
tribes
of
Israel,
one
man
for
each
tribe.
\VS{13}And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
when
the
soles
of
the
feet
of
the
priests
who
bear
the
ark
of
Jehovah,
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth,
rest
in
the
waters
of
the
Jordan,
the
waters
of
the
Jordan,
the
waters
flowing
down
from
above,
shall
be
cut
off,
and
shall
stand
up
in
a heap.
\VS{14}And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
people
removed
from
their
tents,
to
pass
over
the
Jordan,
that
the
priests
bearing
the
ark
of
the
covenant
were
before
the
people;
\VS{15}and
when
they
that
bore
the
ark
were
come
to
the
Jordan,
and
the
feet
of
the
priests
who
bore
the
ark
dipped
in
the edge
of
the
water (and
the
Jordan
is
full
over
all
its
banks
throughout
the
days
of
harvest),
\VS{16}the
waters
which
flowed
down
from
above
stood [and]
rose
up
in
a heap,
very
far,
by
Adam,
the
city
that
is
beside Zaretan;
and
those
that
flowed
down towards
the
sea
of
the
plain,
the
salt
sea,
were
completely
cut
off.
And
the
people
went
over
opposite
to
Jericho.
\VS{17}And
the
priests
who
bore
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
stood
firm
on
dry
ground
in
the
midst
of
the
Jordan.
And
all
Israel
went
over
on
dry
ground,
until
all
the
nation
had
completely
gone
over
the
Jordan.

\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
whole
nation
had
completely
gone
over
the
Jordan,
that
Jehovah
spoke
to
Joshua,
saying,
\VS{2}Take
you
twelve
men
out
of
the
people,
one
man
out
of
every
tribe,
\VS{3}and
command
them,
saying,
Take
up hence
out
of
the
midst
of
the
Jordan,
from
the
place
where
the priests'
feet
stood
firm,
twelve
stones,
and
carry
them
over
with
you,
and lay
them
down
in
the lodging-place
where ye
shall lodge
this
night.
\VS{4}And
Joshua
called
the
twelve
men,
whom
he
had
appointed
of
the
children
of
Israel,
a
man
out
of
every
tribe;
\VS{5}and
Joshua
said
to
them,
Pass
before
the
ark
of
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:5 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
into
the
midst
of
the
Jordan,
and
lift
up
each
of
you
a
stone [and put
it]
upon
his
shoulder,
according
to
the
number
of
the
tribes
of
the
children
of
Israel,
\VS{6}that
this
may
be
a
sign
in
your
midst.
When
your
children
ask hereafter,
saying,
What mean ye
by
these
stones?
\VS{7}then ye
shall
say
to
them,
That
the
waters
of
the
Jordan
were
cut
off
before
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah;
when
it
went
through
the
Jordan,
the
waters
of
the
Jordan
were
cut
off.
And
these
stones
shall
be
for
a
memorial unto
the
children
of
Israel
for
ever.
\VS{8}And
the
children
of
Israel
did
so,
as
Joshua
had
commanded,
and
took
up
twelve
stones
out
of
the
midst
of
the
Jordan,
as
Jehovah
had
spoken
to
Joshua,
according
to
the
number
of
the
tribes
of
the
children
of
Israel;
and
they
carried
them
over
with
them
to
the lodging-place,
and
laid
them
down
there.
\VS{9}And
twelve
stones
did
Joshua
set
up
in
the
midst
of
the
Jordan,
in
the
place
where
the
feet
of
the
priests
who
bore
the
ark
of
the
covenant
had
stood firm;
and
they
are
there
to
this
day.
\VS{10}And
the
priests
who
bore
the
ark
stood
in
the
midst
of
the
Jordan,
until
everything
was
finished
that
Jehovah
had
commanded
Joshua
to
speak unto
the
people,
according
to
all
that
Moses
had
commanded
Joshua.
And
the
people hasted
and
passed
over.
\VS{11}And
it
came
to
pass,
when
all
the
people
had
completely
gone
over,
that
the
ark
of
Jehovah
went
over,
and
the
priests,
in
the
presence
of
the
people.
\VS{12}And
the
children
of
Reuben,
and
the
children
of
Gad,
and
the
half
tribe
of
Manasseh,
went
over
in
array
before
the
children
of
Israel,
as
Moses
had
spoken
to
them.
\VS{13}About
forty
thousand
armed
for
military
service
passed
over
before
Jehovah
to
the
war, unto
the
plains
of
Jericho.
\VS{14}On
that
day
Jehovah
magnified
Joshua
in
the
sight
of
all
Israel;
and
they
feared
him,
as
they
had
feared
Moses,
all
the
days
of
his
life.
\VS{15}And
Jehovah
spoke
to
Joshua,
saying,
\VS{16}Command
the
priests
who
bear
the
ark
of
the
testimony,
that
they
come
up
out
of
the
Jordan.
\VS{17}And
Joshua
commanded
the
priests,
saying,
Come
up
out
of
the
Jordan.
\VS{18}And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
priests
who
bore
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
had
come
up
out
of
the
midst
of
the
Jordan, [when]
the
soles
of
the priests'
feet
were
lifted
up
on
to
the
dry
land,
that
the
waters
of
the
Jordan
returned
to
their
place,
and
they flowed
as
previously,
over
all
its
banks.
\VS{19}And
the
people
came
up
out
of
the
Jordan
on
the
tenth
of
the
first
month,
and
encamped
in
Gilgal,
on
the
eastern extremity
of
Jericho.
\VS{20}And
those
twelve
stones
which
they
had
taken
out
of
the
Jordan
did
Joshua
set
up
in
Gilgal.
\VS{21}And
he
spoke
to
the
children
of
Israel,
saying,
When
your
children hereafter
ask
their
fathers,
saying,
What [mean]
these
stones?
\VS{22}then ye
shall let
your
children
know,
saying,
On
dry
land did
Israel come
over
this
Jordan;
\VS{23}because
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:23 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
dried
up
the
waters
of
the
Jordan
from
before
you,
until ye
had
passed
over,
as
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:23 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
did
to
the Red
sea,
which
he
dried
up
from
before
us,
until
we
had
passed
over;
\VS{24}that
all
peoples
of
the
earth
might
know
the
hand
of
Jehovah,
that
it
is
mighty;
that ye
might
fear
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 4:24 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
continually.

\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
when
all
the
kings
of
the
Amorites,
who
were
beyond
the
Jordan
westward,
and
all
the
kings
of
the
Canaanites,
who
were
by
the
sea,
heard
that
Jehovah
had
dried
up
the
waters
of
the
Jordan
from
before
the
children
of
Israel,
until
they
had
passed
over,
that
their
heart
melted,
and
there
was
no
spirit
in
them
any
more,
because
of
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{2}At
that
time
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
Make thee stone-knives,
and
circumcise
again
the
children
of
Israel
the
second
time.
\VS{3}And
Joshua
made
him stone-knives,
and
circumcised
the
children
of
Israel
at
the
hill
of Araloth.
\VS{4}And
this
is
the
cause
why
Joshua
circumcised [them]:
all
the
people
that
had
come
out
of
Egypt,
the
males,
all
the
men
of
war,
had
died
in
the
wilderness
on
the
way,
after
they
came
out
of
Egypt.
\VS{5}For
all
the
people
that
came
out
were
circumcised;
but
all
the
people
that
were
born
in
the
wilderness
on
the
way,
after
they
came
out
of
Egypt, [them]
had
they
not
circumcised.
\VS{6}For
the
children
of
Israel
had
walked
forty
years
in
the
wilderness,
till
the
whole
nation
of
men
of
war
had
perished
who
had
come
out
of
Egypt,
who
had
not hearkened
to
the
voice
of
Jehovah;
to
whom
Jehovah
had
sworn
that
he
would
not
show
them
the
land
which
Jehovah
had
sworn unto
their
fathers
that
he
would
give
us,
a
land
flowing
with
milk
and
honey.
\VS{7}And
their
sons [whom]
he
raised
up
in
their
stead,
them
Joshua
circumcised,
for
they
were
uncircumcised,
because
they
had
not
circumcised
them
on
the
way.
\VS{8}And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
whole
nation
had
finished
being
circumcised,
that
they
abode
in
their
place
in
the
camp,
till
they
were
whole.
\VS{9}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
This
day
have
I
rolled
away
the
reproach
of
Egypt
from
off
you.
And
the
name
of
the
place
was
called
Gilgal
to
this
day.
\VS{10}And
the
children
of
Israel
encamped
in
Gilgal,
and
held
the
passover
on
the fourteenth
day
of
the
month,
at
even,
in
the
plains
of
Jericho.
\VS{11}And
they
ate
of
the old corn
of
the
land
on
the morrow
after
the
passover,
unleavened loaves,
and
roasted [corn]
on
that
same
day.
\VS{12}And
the
manna ceased
on
the morrow,
when
they
had
eaten
of
the
old corn
of
the
land;
and
there
was
no
more
manna
for
the
children
of
Israel;
and
they
ate
of
the
produce
of
the
land
of
Canaan
that
year.
\VS{13}And
it
came
to
pass
when
Joshua
was
by
Jericho,
that
he
lifted
up
his
eyes
and
looked,
and
behold,
there
stood
a
man
before
him
with
his
sword
drawn
in
his
hand.
And
Joshua
went
to
him,
and
said
to
him: Art thou
for
us,
or
for
our enemies?
\VS{14}And
he
said,
No;
for [as]
captain
of
the
army
of
Jehovah
am
I
now
come.
Then
Joshua
fell
upon
his
face
to
the
earth,
and worshipped,
and
said
to
him,
What saith
my
lord unto
his
servant?
\VS{15}And
the
captain
of Jehovah's
army
said
to
Joshua,
Loose thy
sandal
from
off thy
foot:
for
the
place whereon thou standest
is
holy.
And
Joshua
did
so.

\par }\Chap{6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now
Jericho
was
shut
up
and
was barred,
because
of
the
children
of
Israel:
none
went
out,
and
none
came
in.
\VS{2}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
See,
I
have
given
into thy
hand
Jericho,
and
the
king thereof, [and]
the
valiant
men.
\VS{3}And ye
shall
go
round
the
city,
all
the
men
of
war, encompassing
the
city
once.
Thus shalt thou
do
six
days.
\VS{4}And
seven
priests
shall
carry
before
the
ark
seven blast-trumpets;
and
on
the
seventh
day ye
shall
go
round
the
city
seven
times,
and
the
priests
shall
blow
with
the
trumpets.
\VS{5}And
it
shall
come
to
pass
when
they
make
a
long
blast
with
the blast-horn,
that
all
the
people
on
hearing
the
sound
of
the
trumpet
shall
shout
with
a
great
shout;
and
the
wall
of
the
city
shall
fall
flat,
and
the
people
shall
go
up,
each
one
straight
before
him.
\VS{6}And
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun
called
the
priests,
and
said
to
them,
Carry
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
seven
priests
shall
carry
seven blast-trumpets
before
the
ark
of
Jehovah.
\VS{7}And
he
said
to
the
people,
Pass
on,
go
round
the
city,
and
they
that
are
armed
shall
pass
on
before
the
ark
of
Jehovah.
\VS{8}And
it
came
to
pass
when
Joshua
had
spoken
to
the
people,
that
the
seven
priests
carrying
the
seven blast-trumpets
before
Jehovah
passed
on
and
blew
with
the
trumpets;
and
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
went
after
them.
\VS{9}And
the
armed
men
went
before
the
priests
who
blew
with
the
trumpets,
and
the rearguard
came
after
the
ark;
they
blew
with
the
trumpets
in marching.
\VS{10}And
Joshua
had
commanded
the
people,
saying, Ye
shall
not
shout,
nor
let
your
voice
be
heard,
neither
shall
a
word
proceed
out
of
your
mouth,
until
the
day
I
say
to
you,
Shout;
then
shall ye
shout.
\VS{11}And
the
ark
of
Jehovah
went
round
the
city, encompassing [it]
once;
and
they
came
into
the
camp,
and lodged
in
the
camp.
\VS{12}And
Joshua
rose
early
in
the
morning,
and
the
priests
carried
the
ark
of
Jehovah.
\VS{13}And
the
seven
priests
carrying
the
seven blast-trumpets
before
the
ark
of
Jehovah
went
on
and
blew
continually
with
the
trumpets;
and
the
armed
men
went
before
them,
and
the rearguard
went
after
the
ark
of
Jehovah;
they
blew
with
the
trumpets
in marching.
\VS{14}And
on
the
second
day
they
went
round
the
city
once,
and
returned
into
the
camp.
So
they
did
six
days.
\VS{15}And
it
was
so
that
on
the
seventh
day
they
rose
early,
about
the morning-dawn,
and
went
round
the
city
after
the
same
manner
seven
times;
only
on
that
day
they
went
round
the
city
seven
times.
\VS{16}And
it
came
to
pass
the
seventh
time,
when
the
priests
blew
with
the
trumpets,
that
Joshua
said
to
the
people,
Shout;
for
Jehovah
has
given
you
the
city.
\VS{17}And
the
city
shall
be accursed,
it
and
all
that
is
in
it,
to
Jehovah;
only
Rahab
the
harlot
shall
live,
she
and
all
that
are
with
her
in
the
house,
because
she
hid
the
messengers
that
we
sent.
\VS{18}But
in
any wise
keep
from
the accursed thing,
lest ye
make [yourselves] accursed
in
taking
of
the accursed thing,
and
make
the
camp
of
Israel
a curse,
and
trouble
it.
\VS{19}And
all
the
silver,
and
gold,
and
vessels
of
copper
and
iron,
shall
be
holy
to
Jehovah;
they
shall
come
into
the
treasury
of
Jehovah.
\VS{20}And
the
people
shouted,
and
they
blew
with
the
trumpets.
And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
people
heard
the
sound
of
the
trumpets,
and
the
people
shouted
with
a
great
shout,
that
the
wall
fell
down
flat;
and
the
people
went
up
into
the
city,
each
one
straight
before
him,
and
they
took
the
city.
\VS{21}And
they utterly destroyed
all
that
was
in
the
city;
both
man
and
woman,
young
and
old,
and
ox,
and
sheep,
and ass,
with
the
edge
of
the
sword.
\VS{22}And
Joshua
said
to
the
two
men
that
had
spied
out
the
country,
Go
into
the harlot's
house
and
bring
out thence
the
woman,
and
all
that
she
has,
as ye
swore unto
her.
\VS{23}And
the
young
men,
the
spies,
went
in
and
brought
out
Rahab,
and
her
father,
and
her
mother,
and
her
brethren,
and
all
that
she
had:
all
her kindred
did
they
bring
out,
and
they
left
them
outside
the
camp
of
Israel.
\VS{24}And
they
burned
the
city
with
fire,
and
all
that
was therein;
only
the
silver,
and
the
gold,
and
the
vessels
of
copper
and
of
iron,
they
put
into
the
treasury
of
the
house
of
Jehovah.
\VS{25}And
Joshua saved
alive
Rahab
the
harlot,
and
her father's
household,
and
all
that
she
had,
and
she
dwelt
in
the
midst
of
Israel
to
this
day;
because
she
hid
the
messengers
whom
Joshua
had
sent
to
spy
out
Jericho.
\VS{26}And
Joshua
swore
at
that
time,
saying,
Cursed
be
the
man
before
Jehovah
who
shall
rise
up
and
build
this
city
Jericho!
In
his first-born
shall
he
lay
its
foundation,
and
in
his
youngest
son
shall
he
set
up
its
gates.
\VS{27}And
Jehovah
was
with
Joshua;
and
his
fame
was
in
all
the
land.

\par }\Chap{7}{\PP \VerseOne{1}But
the
children
of
Israel
committed
unfaithfulness
in
that which
had
been
brought
under
the curse:
Achan,
the
son
of
Carmi,
the
son
of
Zabdi,
the
son
of
Zerah,
of
the
tribe
of
Judah,
took
of
the accursed thing;
and
the
anger
of
Jehovah
was
kindled
against
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{2}And
Joshua
sent
men
from
Jericho
to
Ai,
which
is
beside Beth-Aven,
on
the
east
side
of
Bethel,
and
spoke
to
them,
saying,
Go
up
and
spy
out
the
country.
And
the
men
went
up
and
spied
out
Ai.
\VS{3}And
they
returned
to
Joshua,
and
said
to
him,
Let
not
all
the
people
go
up;
let
about
two
or
three
thousand
men
go
up
and
smite
Ai;
make
not
all
the
people
to
toil thither,
for
they
are
few.
\VS{4}And
there
went
up thither
of
the
people
about
three
thousand
men,
but
they
fled
before
the
men
of
Ai.
\VS{5}And
the
men
of
Ai
smote
of
them
about thirty-six
men;
and
they
pursued
them
from
before
the
gate
to
Shebarim,
and
smote
them
on
the
descent.
Then
the
hearts
of
the
people
melted,
and
became
as
water.
\VS{6}And
Joshua rent
his
clothes,
and
fell
to
the
earth
upon
his
face
before
the
ark
of
Jehovah
until
the
evening,
he
and
the
elders
of
Israel,
and
threw
dust
upon
their
heads.
\VS{7}And
Joshua
said,
Alas,
Lord Jehovah, wherefore hast thou
at all
brought
this
people
over
the
Jordan,
to
deliver
us
into
the
hand
of
the
Amorites,
to
destroy
us?
Oh
that we
had
been content
and
had
remained
beyond
the
Jordan!
\VS{8}Ah
Lord!
what
shall
I
say
after
Israel
have
turned
their
backs
before
their
enemies?
\VS{9}When
the
Canaanites
and
all
the
inhabitants
of
the
land
shall
hear [of
it],
they
will
surround
us,
and
cut
off
our
name
from
the
earth.
And
what wilt thou
do unto thy
great
name?
\VS{10}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
Rise
up; wherefore liest thou
thus
upon thy
face?
\VS{11}Israel hath
sinned,
and
they
have
also transgressed
my
covenant
which
I
commanded
them,
and
they
have
even
taken
of
the accursed
thing,
and
have
also
stolen,
and dissembled
also,
and
they
have
put
it
among
their stuff.
\VS{12}And
the
children
of
Israel
shall
not
be
able
to
stand
before
their
enemies:
they
shall
turn
their
backs
before
their
enemies,
for
they
have
made themselves accursed.
I
will
no
more
be
with
you,
except ye
destroy
the accursed
thing
from
your
midst.
\VS{13}Rise
up, hallow
the
people,
and
say, Hallow
yourselves
for to-morrow;
for
thus saith
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:13 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel,
There
is
an accursed
thing
in
the
midst
of thee,
Israel: thou shalt
not
be
able
to
stand
before thine
enemies,
until ye
take
away
the accursed
thing
from
your
midst.
\VS{14}And ye
shall
be
brought
near
in
the
morning according
to
your
tribes;
and
it
shall
be,
that
the
tribe
which
Jehovah taketh
shall
come
forward
by
families,
and
the
family
which
Jehovah taketh
shall
come
forward
by
households;
and
the
household
which
Jehovah taketh
shall
come
forward
man
by
man.
\VS{15}And
it
shall
be,
that
he
who
is
taken
with
the accursed
thing
shall
be
burned
with
fire,
he
and
all
that
he hath,
because
he hath transgressed
the
covenant
of
Jehovah,
and
because
he hath wrought wickedness
in
Israel.
\VS{16}And
Joshua
rose
early
in
the
morning,
and caused
Israel
to
come
forward
by
their
tribes,
and
the
tribe
of
Judah
was
taken.
\VS{17}And
he caused
the
families
of
Judah
to
come
forward,
and
he
took
the
family
of
the Zarhites.
And
he caused
the
family
of
the Zarhites
to
come
forward
man
by
man,
and
Zabdi
was
taken.
\VS{18}And
he caused
his
household
to
come
forward
man
by
man,
and
Achan,
the
son
of
Carmi,
the
son
of
Zabdi,
the
son
of
Zerah,
of
the
tribe
of
Judah,
was
taken.
\VS{19}And
Joshua
said
to
Achan,
My
son,
give,
I
pray thee,
glory
to
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:19 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel,
and
make
confession
to
him:
tell
me
now
what thou hast
done,
keep
it
not
back
from
me.
\VS{20}And
Achan
answered
Joshua
and
said,
Indeed
I
have
sinned
against
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 7:20 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel,
and thus
and thus
have
I
done.
\VS{21}I
saw
among
the
spoils
a beautiful
mantle
of
Shinar,
and
two
hundred
shekels
of
silver,
and
a
golden
bar
of
fifty
shekels
weight,
and
I
coveted
them
and
took
them;
and
behold,
they
are
hid
in
the
earth
in
the
midst
of
my
tent,
and
the
silver
under
it.
\VS{22}And
Joshua
sent
messengers,
and
they
ran
to
the
tent,
and
behold,
it
was
hid
in
his
tent,
and
the
silver
under
it.
\VS{23}And
they
took
them
out
of
the
midst
of
the
tent,
and
brought
them
to
Joshua
and
to
all
the
children
of
Israel,
and
laid
them
out
before
Jehovah.
\VS{24}Then
Joshua,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
took
Achan
the
son
of
Zerah,
and
the
silver,
and
the
mantle,
and
the
bar
of
gold,
and
his
sons,
and
his
daughters,
and
his
oxen,
and
his asses,
and
his
sheep,
and
his
tent,
and
all
that
he
had;
and
they
brought
them
up
into
the
valley
of
Achor.
\VS{25}And
Joshua
said,
How hast thou
troubled
us!
Jehovah
will
trouble thee
this
day.
And
all
Israel
stoned
him
with
stones;
and
they
burned
them
with
fire,
and
stoned
them
with
stones.
\VS{26}And
they
raised
over
him
a
great
heap
of
stones, [which
is
there]
to
this
day.
And
Jehovah
turned
from
the
fierceness
of
his
anger.
Therefore
the
name
of
that
place
was
called,
The
Valley
of
Achor,
to
this
day.

\par }\Chap{8}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
Fear
not,
neither
be
dismayed.
Take
with thee
all
the
people
of
war,
and
arise,
go
up
to
Ai.
See,
I
have
given
into thy
hand
the
king
of
Ai,
and
his
people,
and
his
city,
and
his
land.
\VS{2}And thou shalt
do
to
Ai
and
to
its
king
as thou didst
to
Jericho
and
to
its
king;
only,
the
spoil thereof
and
the
cattle thereof
shall ye
take
as
prey
for yourselves.
Set
an
ambush against
the
city
behind
it.
\VS{3}And
Joshua
arose,
and
all
the
people
of
war,
to
go
up
to
Ai.
And
Joshua
chose
thirty
thousand
valiant
men,
and
sent
them
away
by
night.
\VS{4}And
he
commanded
them,
saying,
See, ye shall
be
in
ambush
against
the
city,
behind
the
city:
go
not
very
far
from
the
city,
and
be
all
of
you
ready.
\VS{5}And
I
and
all
the
people
that
are
with
me
will
approach
to
the
city;
and
it
shall
come
to
pass
when
they
come
out
against
us,
as
at
the
first,
that
we
will
flee
before
them.
\VS{6}And
they
will
come
out
after
us
till
we
have
drawn
them
from
the
city;
for
they
will
say,
They
flee
before
us,
as
at
the
first;
and
we
will
flee
before
them.
\VS{7}And ye
shall
rise
up
from
the
ambush
and
take
possession
of
the
city;
and
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:7 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
will
deliver
it
into
your
hand.
\VS{8}And
it
shall
be
when ye
have
taken
the
city,
that ye
shall
set
the
city
on
fire; according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah
shall ye
do.
See,
I
have
commanded
you.
\VS{9}And
Joshua
sent
them
forth;
and
they
went
to lie
in
ambush,
and
abode
between
Bethel
and
Ai,
on
the
west
of
Ai.
And
Joshua lodged
that
night
among
the
people.
\VS{10}And
Joshua
rose
early
in
the
morning,
and inspected
the
people,
and
went
up,
he
and
the
elders
of
Israel,
before
the
people
to
Ai.
\VS{11}And
all
the
people
of
war
that
were
with
him
went
up,
and
drew
near,
and
came
before
the
city;
and
they
encamped
on
the
north
of
Ai;
and
the
valley
was
between
them
and
Ai.
\VS{12}Now
he
had
taken
about
five
thousand
men,
and
set
them
in
ambush
between
Bethel
and
Ai,
on
the
west
of
the
city.
\VS{13}And
when
they
had
set
the
people,
the
whole
camp
on
the
north
of
the
city,
and
their ambush
on
the
west
of
the
city,
Joshua went
that
night
into
the
midst
of
the
valley.
\VS{14}And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
king
of
Ai
saw
it,
that
the
men
of
the
city hasted
and
rose
early,
and
went
out
against
Israel
to
battle,
he
and
all
his
people,
at
the
appointed
place
before
the
plain.
But
he
knew
not
that
there
was
an
ambush
against
him
behind
the
city.
\VS{15}And
Joshua
and
all
Israel let themselves
be
beaten
before
them;
and
they
fled
by
the
way
of
the
wilderness.
\VS{16}And
all
the
people
that
were
in
the
city
were
called
together
to
pursue
after
them;
and
they
pursued
after
Joshua,
and
were
drawn
away
from
the
city.
\VS{17}And
not
a
man
remained
in
Ai
and
Bethel
that
went
not
out
after
Israel;
and
they
left
the
city
open,
and
pursued
after
Israel.
\VS{18}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
Stretch
out
the
javelin
that
is
in thy
hand
toward
Ai;
for
I
will
give
it
into thy
hand.
And
Joshua
stretched
out
the
javelin
that
he
had
in
his
hand
toward
the
city.
\VS{19}And
the
ambush
arose
quickly
from
their
place,
and
they
ran
when
he
stretched
out
his
hand,
and
came
into
the
city,
and
took
it,
and hasted
and
set
the
city
on
fire.
\VS{20}And
the
men
of
Ai
turned
and
saw,
and
behold,
the
smoke
of
the
city
went
up
to
heaven,
and
they
had
no
power
to
flee
this
way
or
that
way;
and
the
people
that
fled
to
the
wilderness
turned
upon
the
pursuers.
\VS{21}When
Joshua
and
all
Israel
saw
that
the
ambush
had
taken
the
city,
and
that
the
smoke
of
the
city
went
up,
they
turned
again,
and
slew
the
men
of
Ai.
\VS{22}And
the
others
went
out
of
the
city
against
them;
so
they
were
in
the
midst
of
Israel,
some
on
this
side,
and
some
on
that
side;
and
they
smote
them,
until
they
let
none
of
them
escape
or
flee
away.
\VS{23}And
the
king
of
Ai
they
took
alive,
and
brought
him
to
Joshua.
\VS{24}And
it
came
to
pass
when
Israel
had
ended
slaying
all
the
inhabitants
of
Ai
in
the
field,
in
the
wilderness
wherein
they
had
chased
them,
and
they
had
all
fallen
by
the
edge
of
the
sword,
until
they
were
consumed,
that
all
Israel
returned
to
Ai,
and
smote
it
with
the
edge
of
the
sword.
\VS{25}And
so
it
was,
that
all
who
fell
that
day,
men
as well
as
women,
were
twelve
thousand,
all
the
people
of
Ai.
\VS{26}And
Joshua
did
not
draw
back
his
hand,
which
he
had
stretched
out
with
the
javelin,
until
they
had utterly destroyed
all
the
inhabitants
of
Ai.
\VS{27}Only,
the
cattle
and
the
spoil
of
the
city
Israel
took
as
prey
to
themselves, according
to
the
word
of
Jehovah
which
he
had
commanded
Joshua.
\VS{28}And
Joshua
burned
Ai,
and
made
it
an
everlasting
heap
of
desolation
to
this
day.
\VS{29}And
the
king
of
Ai
he
hanged
on
a
tree
until
the
evening;
and
at
the
going
down
of
the
sun
Joshua
commanded,
and
they
took
his carcase
down
from
the
tree,
and
threw
it
down
at
the
entrance
of
the
gate
of
the
city,
and
raised
upon
it
a
great
heap
of
stones, [which remains]
to
this
day.
\VS{30}Then
Joshua
built
an
altar
to
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 8:30 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel,
in
mount
Ebal,
\VS{31}as
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
had
commanded
the
children
of
Israel,
as
it
is
written
in
the
book
of
the
law
of
Moses,
an
altar
of
whole
stones,
over
which
iron
had
not
been
lifted
up.
And
they
offered
up burnt-offerings
on
it
to
Jehovah,
and
sacrificed peace-offerings.
\VS{32}And
he
wrote
there
on
the
stones
a
copy
of
the
law
of
Moses,
which
he
had
written
before
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{33}And
all
Israel,
and
their
elders,
and
their
officers
and
judges,
stood
on
this
side
and
on
that
side
of
the
ark
before
the
priests
the
Levites,
who
bore
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah,
as
well
the
stranger
as
the home-born [Israelite];
half
of
them
toward
mount
Gerizim,
and
the
other
half
of
them
toward
mount
Ebal;
as
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
had
commanded,
that
they
should
bless
the
people
of
Israel,
in
the
beginning.
\VS{34}And
afterwards
he
read
all
the
words
of
the
law,
the
blessing
and
the
curse,
according
to
all
that
is
written
in
the
book
of
the
law.
\VS{35}There
was
not
a
word
of
all
that
Moses
had
commanded
which
Joshua
read
not
before
the
whole
congregation
of
Israel,
and
the
women,
and
the
children,
and
the
strangers
that
lived
among
them.

\par }\Chap{9}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
when
all
the
kings
who
were
on
this
side
the
Jordan,
in
the hill-country,
and
in
the
lowland,
and
along
all
the
coast
of
the
great
sea
as
far
as
opposite
to
Lebanon,
the
Hittite,
and
the
Amorite,
the
Canaanite,
the
Perizzite,
the
Hivite,
and
the
Jebusite,
heard [of
it],
\VS{2}that
they
assembled
together,
to
fight
with
Joshua
and
with
Israel,
with
one
accord.
\VS{3}And
when
the
inhabitants
of
Gibeon
heard
what
Joshua
had
done
to
Jericho
and
to
Ai,
\VS{4}then
they
also
acted
with craft,
and
they went
prepared
as
on
a journey,
and
took old
sacks upon
their asses,
and wine-flasks, old
and rent
and tied
up;
\VS{5}and old
and
patched
sandals
upon
their
feet,
and old
garments
upon
them;
and
all
the
bread
of
their
provision
was
dry [and] mouldy.
\VS{6}And
they
went
to
Joshua unto
the
camp
at
Gilgal,
and
said
to
him,
and
to
the
men
of
Israel,
From
a
far
country
are
we
come;
and
now
make
a
covenant
with
us.
\VS{7}And
the
men
of
Israel
said
to
the
Hivite,
Perhaps thou dwellest
in
the
midst
of
us,
and
how
should
I
make
a
covenant
with thee?
\VS{8}And
they
said unto
Joshua,
We
are thy
servants.
And
Joshua
said
to
them,
Who
are ye?
and
from whence
come ye?
\VS{9}And
they
said
to
him,
From
a
very
far
country
are thy
servants
come,
because
of
the
name
of
Jehovah thy
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:9 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God;
for
we
have
heard
the
fame
of
him,
and
all
that
he
did
in
Egypt,
\VS{10}and
all
that
he
did
to
the
two
kings
of
the
Amorites
that
were
beyond
Jordan,
to
Sihon
the
king
of
Heshbon,
and
to
Og
the
king
of
Bashan,
who
was
at
Ashtaroth.
\VS{11}And
our
elders
and
all
the
inhabitants
of
our
country
spoke
to
us,
saying,
Take victuals
in
your
hand
for
the
way,
and go
to
meet
them,
and
say
to
them,
We
are
your
servants,
and
now
make
a
covenant
with
us.
\VS{12}This
our
bread
we
took
warm
for
our
provision
out
of
our
houses
on
the
day
we
came
forth
to
go unto
you;
and
now,
behold,
it
is
dry,
and
is
become mouldy.
\VS{13}And
these flasks
of
wine
which
we
filled
new,
behold,
they
are rent;
and
these
our
garments
and
our
sandals
are
become
old
by
reason
of
the
very
long
journey.
\VS{14}And
the
men
took
of
their victuals,
but
they
did
not
inquire
at
the
mouth
of
Jehovah.
\VS{15}And
Joshua
made
peace
with
them,
and
made
a
covenant
with
them,
to let
them
live;
and
the
princes
of
the
assembly
swore unto
them.
\VS{16}And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
end
of
three
days
after
they
had
made
a
covenant
with
them,
that
they
heard
that
they
were
their neighbours,
and
that
they
dwelt
in
their
midst.
\VS{17}And
the
children
of
Israel
journeyed,
and
came
to
their
cities
on
the
third
day;
and
their
cities
were
Gibeon,
and Chephirah,
and
Beeroth,
and Kirjath-jearim.
\VS{18}And
the
children
of
Israel
did
not
smite
them,
because
the
princes
of
the
assembly
had
sworn unto
them
by
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:18 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel.
Then
all
the
assembly
murmured
against
the
princes.
\VS{19}And
all
the
princes
said
to
all
the
assembly,
We
have
sworn unto
them
by
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:19 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel,
and
now
we
may
not
touch
them.
\VS{20}This
we
will
do
to
them,
and
let
them
live, lest
wrath
come
upon
us,
because
of
the
oath
which
we
swore unto
them.
\VS{21}And
the
princes
said
to
them,
Let
them
live.
And
they
were
hewers
of
wood
and
drawers
of
water
for
all
the
assembly;
as
the
princes
had
said
to
them.
\VS{22}And
Joshua
called
for
them,
and
he
spoke
to
them,
saying,
Why
have ye
deceived
us,
saying,
We
are
very
far
from
you; whereas ye
dwell
in
our
midst?
\VS{23}And
now ye
are
cursed,
and ye
shall
never
cease
to
be bondmen,
and
hewers
of
wood,
and
drawers
of
water
for
the
house
of
my
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:23 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{24}And
they
answered
Joshua
and
said,
Because
it
was
certainly
told thy
servants
how
that
Jehovah thy
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 9:24 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
commanded
his
servant
Moses
to
give
you
all
the
land,
and
to
destroy
all
the
inhabitants
of
the
land
from
before
you;
and
we
feared
greatly
for
our
lives
because
of
you,
and
did
this
thing.
\VS{25}And
now
behold,
we
are
in thy
hand:
as
it
is
good
and
right
in thine
eyes
to
do
to
us,
do.
\VS{26}And
he
did
so
to
them,
and
delivered
them
out
of
the
hand
of
the
children
of
Israel,
and
they
did
not
slay
them.
\VS{27}And
Joshua
made
them
that
day
hewers
of
wood
and
drawers
of
water
for
the
assembly,
and
for
the
altar
of
Jehovah,
to
this
day,
in
the
place
which
he
should
choose.

\par }\Chap{10}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
when
Adoni-zedek
king
of
Jerusalem
heard
that
Joshua
had
taken
Ai
and
had utterly destroyed
it,
that
he
had
done
to
Ai
and
its
king
as
he
had
done
to
Jericho
and
its
king,
and
that
the
inhabitants
of
Gibeon
had
made peace
with
Israel,
and
were
among
them,
\VS{2}that
they
feared
greatly;
for
Gibeon
was
a
great
city,
as
one
of
the
royal
cities,
and
it
was
greater
than
Ai,
and
all
its
men
were
mighty.
\VS{3}And
Adoni-zedek
king
of
Jerusalem
sent
to
Hoham
king
of
Hebron,
and
to Piream
king
of
Jarmuth,
and
to
Japhia
king
of
Lachish,
and
to
Debir
king
of
Eglon,
saying,
\VS{4}Come
up
to
me,
and
help
me,
that
we
may
smite
Gibeon;
for
it
has
made peace
with
Joshua
and
with
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{5}And
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,
gathered
themselves
together,
and
went
up,
they
and
all
their
armies,
and
they
encamped
before
Gibeon,
and
made war
against
it.
\VS{6}And
the
men
of
Gibeon
sent
to
Joshua,
to
the
camp
at
Gilgal,
saying,
Withdraw
not thy
hand
from thy
servants:
come
up
to
us
quickly,
and
save
us
and
help
us;
for
all
the
kings
of
the
Amorites
that
dwell
in
the hill-country
are
gathered
against
us.
\VS{7}So
Joshua
went
up
from
Gilgal,
he
and
all
the
people
of
war
with
him, even
all
the
valiant
men.
\VS{8}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
Fear
them
not;
for
into thy
hand
have
I
given
them:
not
a
man
of
them
shall
stand
before thee.
\VS{9}And
Joshua
came
upon
them
suddenly;
he
went
up
from
Gilgal
all
night.
\VS{10}And
Jehovah discomfited
them
before
Israel,
and
smote
them [with]
a
great
slaughter
at
Gibeon;
and
he
chased
them
on
the
way
of
the ascent
of
Beth-horon,
and
smote
them
up
to
Azekah
and
Makkedah.
\VS{11}And
it
came
to
pass,
as
they
fled
from
before
Israel, —
they
were
at
the
descent
of
Beth-horon, —
that
Jehovah
cast
down
great
stones
from
heaven
upon
them
up
to
Azekah,
and
they
died.
They
were
more
who
died
with
the
hailstones
than
they
whom
the
children
of
Israel
had
slain
with
the
sword.
\VS{12}Then
spoke
Joshua
to
Jehovah
in
the
day
when
Jehovah
gave
up
the
Amorites
before
the
children
of
Israel,
and
he
said
in
the
sight
of
Israel,
Sun, stand
still upon
Gibeon;
And thou,
moon,
in
the
valley
of Ajalon!
\VS{13}And
the
sun
stood
still,
and
the
moon
remained
where
it
was,
until
the
nation
had
avenged
themselves
upon
their
enemies.
Is
not
this
written
in
the
book
of Jasher?
And
the
sun
remained
standing
in
the
midst
of
heaven,
and hasted
not
to
go
down
about
a
full
day.
\VS{14}And
there
was
no
day
like
that
before
it
or
after
it,
that
Jehovah hearkened
to
the
voice
of
a
man;
for
Jehovah
fought
for
Israel.
\VS{15}And
Joshua
returned,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
to
the
camp,
to
Gilgal.
\VS{16}And
these
five
kings
fled,
and
hid
themselves
in
the
cave
at
Makkedah.
\VS{17}And
it
was
told
Joshua,
saying,
The
five
kings
have been
found,
hid
in
the
cave
at
Makkedah.
\VS{18}And
Joshua
said,
Roll
great
stones
before
the
mouth
of
the
cave,
and set
men
before
it
to
keep
them.
\VS{19}And ye,
stay
not,
pursue
after
your
enemies,
and smite
the hindmost
of
them; suffer
them
not
to
enter
into
their
cities;
for
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:19 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
has
given
them
into
your
hand.
\VS{20}And
it
came
to
pass
when
Joshua
and
the
children
of
Israel
had
ended
smiting
them
with
a
very
great
slaughter,
until
they
were
consumed,
that
the
remnant which
remained
of
them
entered
into
fortified
cities;
\VS{21}and
all
the
people
returned
to
the
camp
to
Joshua,
at
Makkedah,
in
peace;
none moved
his
tongue
against
the
children
of
Israel.
\VS{22}And
Joshua
said,
Open
the
mouth
of
the
cave,
and
bring
forth
to
me
those
five
kings
out
of
the
cave.
\VS{23}And
they
did
so,
and
brought
forth
to
him
those
five
kings
out
of
the
cave,
the
king
of
Jerusalem,
the
king
of
Hebron,
the
king
of
Jarmuth,
the
king
of
Lachish,
the
king
of
Eglon.
\VS{24}And
it
came
to
pass
when
they
had
brought
forth
those
kings
to
Joshua,
that
Joshua
called
to
all
the
men
of
Israel,
and
said
to
the captains
of
the
men
of
war
who
went
with
him,
Come
forward,
put
your
feet
on
the
necks
of
these
kings.
And
they
came
forward
and
put
their
feet
on
their
necks.
\VS{25}And
Joshua
said
to
them,
Fear
not,
neither
be
dismayed;
be
strong
and
courageous,
for
thus
will
Jehovah
do
to
all
your
enemies
against
whom ye
fight.
\VS{26}And
afterwards
Joshua
smote
them,
and
put
them
to
death,
and
hanged
them
on
five
trees;
and
they
were
hanging
upon
the
trees
until
the
evening.
\VS{27}And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
time
of
the
going
down
of
the
sun,
that
Joshua
commanded,
and
they
took
them
down
off
the
trees,
and
cast
them
into
the
cave
where
they
had
been
hid,
and
laid
great
stones
before
the cave's
mouth, [which
remain]
to
this
very
day.
\VS{28}And
Joshua
took
Makkedah
on
that
day,
and
smote
it
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and
the
king thereof,
him
and
all
the
souls
that
were therein
he utterly
destroyed;
he
let
none
remain;
and
he
did
to
the
king
of
Makkedah
as
he
had
done
to
the
king
of
Jericho.
\VS{29}And
Joshua
passed,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
from
Makkedah
to
Libnah,
and
fought
against
Libnah.
\VS{30}And
Jehovah
gave
it
also
and
the
king thereof
into
the
hand
of
Israel;
and
he
smote
it
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and
all
the
souls
that
were therein;
he
let
none
remain
in
it:
and
he
did
to
the
king thereof
as
he
had
done
to
the
king
of
Jericho.
\VS{31}And
Joshua
passed,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
from
Libnah
to
Lachish,
and
encamped
against
it,
and
fought
against
it.
\VS{32}And
Jehovah
gave
Lachish
into
the
hand
of
Israel;
and
they
took
it
on
the
second
day,
and
smote
it
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and
all
the
souls
that
were therein,
according
to
all
that
he
had
done
to
Libnah.
\VS{33}Then
Horam
king
of
Gezer
came
up
to
help
Lachish;
and
Joshua
smote
him
and
his
people,
until
he
had
left
him none
remaining.
\VS{34}And
Joshua,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
passed
from
Lachish
to
Eglon;
and
they
encamped
against
it,
and
fought
against
it.
\VS{35}And
they
took
it
on
that
day,
and
smote
it
with
the
edge
of
the
sword;
and
all
the
souls
that
were therein
he utterly
destroyed
on
that
day,
according
to
all
that
he
had
done
to
Lachish.
\VS{36}And
Joshua
went
up,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
from
Eglon
to
Hebron;
and
they
fought
against
it.
\VS{37}And
they
took
it,
and
smote
it
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and
the
king thereof,
and
all
the
cities thereof,
and
all
the
souls
that
were therein:
he
let
none
remain,
according
to
all
that
he
had
done
to
Eglon;
and
he utterly
destroyed
it,
and
all
the
souls
that
were therein.
\VS{38}And
Joshua
returned,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
to
Debir;
and
fought
against
it.
\VS{39}And
he
took
it,
and
the
king thereof,
and
all
the
cities thereof,
and
they
smote
them
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
and utterly
destroyed
all
the
souls
that
were therein;
he
let
none
remain:
as
he
had
done
to
Hebron,
and
as
he
had
done
to
Libnah,
and
to
the
king thereof,
so
he
did
to
Debir
and
to
the
king thereof.
\VS{40}And
Joshua
smote
the
whole
country,
the
mountain,
and
the
south,
and
the
lowland,
and
the hill-slopes,
and
all
their
kings:
he
let
none
remain,
but
he utterly
destroyed
all
that
breathed,
as
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:40 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel
had
commanded.
\VS{41}And
Joshua
smote
them
from
Kadesh-barnea
even
to Gazah,
and
all
the
country
of
Goshen,
even
to
Gibeon;
\VS{42}and
all
these
kings
and
their
land did
Joshua
take
at
one
time;
for
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 10:42 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel
fought
for
Israel.
\VS{43}And
Joshua
returned,
and
all
Israel
with
him,
to
the
camp,
to
Gilgal.

\par }\Chap{11}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
it
came
to
pass
when
Jabin
king
of
Hazor
heard [this],
that
he
sent
to
Jobab
king
of
Madon,
and
to
the
king
of
Shimron,
and
to
the
king
of
Achshaph,
\VS{2}and
to
the
kings
that
were
northward
in
the
mountains,
and
in
the
plain
south
of
Chinneroth,
and
in
the
lowland,
and
on
the upland
of
Dor
on
the
west,
\VS{3}to
the
Canaanite
on
the
east
and
on
the
west,
and
to
the
Amorite,
and
the
Hittite,
and
the
Perizzite,
and
the
Jebusite
in
the
mountains,
and
to
the
Hivite
at
the
foot
of
Hermon
in
the
land
of
Mizpah.
\VS{4}And
they
went
out,
they
and
all
their
armies
with
them,
a
people
numerous
as
the
sand
that
is
on
the
seashore
in
multitude,
with
horses
and
chariots
very
many.
\VS{5}And
all
these
kings met
together,
and
came
and
encamped
together
at
the
waters
of
Merom,
to
fight
against
Israel.
\VS{6}And
Jehovah
said
to
Joshua,
Be
not
afraid
because
of
them;
for to-morrow
about
this
time
will
I
give
them
all
up
slain
before
Israel:
their
horses shalt thou hough,
and thou shalt
burn
their
chariots
with
fire.
\VS{7}And
Joshua,
and
all
the
people
of
war
with
him,
came
upon
them
by
the
waters
of
Merom
suddenly,
and
fell
upon
them.
\VS{8}And
Jehovah
delivered
them
into
the
hand
of
Israel,
and
they
smote
them,
and
chased
them unto
great Zidon,
and
to
Misrephoth-maim,
and
to
the
valley
of
Mizpah
eastward,
and
smote
them
until none
were
left
remaining
to
them.
\VS{9}And
Joshua
did
to
them
as
Jehovah
had
said
to
him:
he houghed
their
horses,
and
burned
their
chariots
with
fire.
\VS{10}And
Joshua
turned
back
at
that
time,
and
took
Hazor,
and
smote
the
king thereof
with
the
sword;
for
Hazor
was
in
times past
the
head
of
all
those
kingdoms.
\VS{11}And
they
smote
all
the
souls
that
were therein
with
the
edge
of
the
sword, destroying
them utterly:
there
was
not
any
left
to
breathe;
and
he
burned
Hazor
with
fire.
\VS{12}And
all
the
cities
of
those
kings
and
all
their
kings
did
Joshua
take;
and
he
smote
them
with
the
edge
of
the
sword, destroying
them utterly,
as
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
had
commanded.
\VS{13}Only,
all
the
cities
that
stood
still
upon
their hills
Israel
did
not
burn, save
Hazor
alone, [which]
Joshua
burned.
\VS{14}And
all
the
spoil
of
these
cities
and
the
cattle
the
children
of
Israel
took
as
prey
to
themselves;
only,
they
smote
all
the
men
with
the
edge
of
the
sword,
until
they
had
destroyed
them:
they
left
none
that
breathed.
\VS{15}As
Jehovah
had
commanded
Moses
his
servant,
so
did
Moses
command
Joshua,
and
so
did
Joshua:
he
let
nothing
fail
of
all
that
Jehovah
had
commanded
Moses.
\VS{16}And
Joshua
took
all
that
land,
the
mountain
and
all
the
south,
and
all
the
land
of
Goshen,
and
the
lowland,
and
the
plain,
and
the
mountain
of
Israel,
and
its
lowland;
\VS{17}from
the smooth
mountain,
which
rises
toward
Seir,
as
far
as
Baal-Gad
in
the
valley
of
Lebanon,
at
the
foot
of
mount
Hermon;
and
he
took
all
their
kings,
and
smote
them,
and
put
them
to
death.
\VS{18}Joshua
made
war
a
long
time
with
all
those
kings.
\VS{19}There
was
not
a
city
that
made peace
with
the
children
of
Israel, save
the
Hivites
who
dwelt
at
Gibeon;
they
took
all
in
battle.
\VS{20}For
it
was
of
Jehovah
that
their
heart
was
hardened,
to
meet
Israel
in
battle,
that
they
might
be
utterly
destroyed,
and
that
there
might
be
no favour shewn
to
them,
but
that
they
might
be
destroyed,
as
Jehovah
had
commanded
Moses.
\VS{21}And
Joshua
came
at
that
time
and
cut
off
the
Anakim
from
the
mountains,
from
Hebron,
from
Debir,
from
Anab,
and
from
all
the
mountain
of
Judah,
and
from
all
the
mountain
of
Israel:
Joshua
destroyed
them utterly,
with
their
cities.
\VS{22}There
were
none
of
the
Anakim
left
in
the
land
of
the
children
of
Israel;
only
at Gazah,
at
Gath,
and
at
Ashdod
there
remained.
\VS{23}And
Joshua
took
the
whole
land,
according
to
all
that
Jehovah
had
said
to
Moses;
and
Joshua
gave
it
for
an
inheritance
to
Israel
according
to
their
divisions,
by
their
tribes.
And
the
land rested
from
war.

the

the

to

is
that
which
Moses
allotted

of
Moab,
beyond
the
Jordan
of
Jericho,
eastward.
\VS{33}But
to
the

Moses
gave
no
inheritance:
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 13:33 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel
is
their
inheritance,
as
he
said
to
them.

\par }\Chap{14}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
this
is
what
the
children
of
Israel
inherited
in
the
land
of
Canaan,
which
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun,
and
the
chief
fathers
of
the
tribes
of
the
children
of
Israel,
allotted
for
inheritance
to
them:
\VS{2}their
inheritance
was
by
lot,
as
Jehovah
had
commanded
by
Moses,
for
the
nine
tribes,
and
the
half
tribe.
\VS{3}For
Moses
had
given
the
inheritance
of
the
two
tribes
and
the
half
tribe
beyond
the
Jordan,
but
to
the
Levites
he
had
given
no
inheritance
among
them.
\VS{4}For
the
children
of
Joseph
were
two
tribes,
Manasseh
and
Ephraim;
and
they
gave
no part
to
the
Levites
in
the
land, save
cities
to
dwell
in,
and
their suburbs
for
their
cattle
and
for
their substance.
\VS{5}As
Jehovah
had
commanded
Moses,
so
the
children
of
Israel
did,
and
they
divided
the
land.
\VS{6}Then
the
children
of
Judah
came
near
to
Joshua
in
Gilgal,
and
Caleb
the
son
of
Jephunneh
the
Kenizzite
said
to
him, Thou knowest
the
word
that
Jehovah
spoke
to
Moses
the
man
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:6 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God,
concerning
me
and thee,
in
Kadesh-barnea.
\VS{7}Forty
years
old
was
I
when
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
sent
me
from
Kadesh-barnea
to search
out
the
land;
and
I
brought
him
word
again
as
it
was
in
my
heart.
\VS{8}And
my
brethren
that
had
gone
up
with
me
made
the
heart
of
the
people
melt;
but
I wholly
followed
Jehovah
my
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:8 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{9}And
Moses
swore
on
that
day,
saying,
The
land whereon thy
feet
have
trodden
shall assuredly
be thine
inheritance,
and thy children's
for
ever!
for thou hast wholly
followed
Jehovah
my
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:9 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{10}And
now
behold,
Jehovah
has kept
me
alive,
as
he
said,
these
forty-five
years,
since
Jehovah
spoke
this
word
to
Moses,
when
Israel
wandered
in
the
wilderness;
and
now
behold,
I
am
this
day
eighty-five
years
old.
\VS{11}I am
still
this
day
strong,
as
in
the
day
that
Moses
sent
me:
as
my
strength
was
then,
even
so
is
my
strength
now,
for
war,
both
to
go
out
and
to
come
in.
\VS{12}And
now
give
me
this
mountain,
of
which
Jehovah
spoke
in
that
day;
for thou heardest
in
that
day
that
Anakim
are
there,
and
great
fortified
cities.
If
so
be
Jehovah
shall
be
with
me,
then
I
shall
dispossess
them,
as
Jehovah
said.
\VS{13}And
Joshua
blessed
him,
and
gave
Hebron
to
Caleb
the
son
of
Jephunneh
for
an
inheritance.
\VS{14}Hebron
therefore
became
the
inheritance
of
Caleb
the
son
of
Jephunneh
the
Kenizzite
to
this
day,
because
he wholly
followed
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 14:14 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel.
\VS{15}Now
the
name
of
Hebron
before
was Kirjath-Arba;
the
great
man
among
the
Anakim.
And
the
land rested
from
war.

as

said,
Give

in
the
midst
of
the
inheritance
of
the
children
of
Manasseh,
all
the
cities
and
their hamlets.
\VS{10}But
they
did
not
dispossess
the
Canaanites
that
dwelt
at
Gezer;
and
the
Canaanites
dwell
in
the
midst
of
Ephraim
to
this
day,
and
serve
under
tribute.

\par }\Chap{17}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
the
lot
came
to
the
tribe
of
Manasseh (for
he
was
the
firstborn
of
Joseph),
to
Machir,
the
firstborn
of
Manasseh,
the
father
of
Gilead,
for
he
was
a
man
of
war,
and
he
had
Gilead
and
Bashan.
\VS{2}There
was
also [a portion]
for
the
rest
of
the
children
of
Manasseh according
to
their
families:
for
the
children
of
Abiezer,
and
for
the
children
of
Helek,
and
for
the
children
of
Asriel,
and
for
the
children
of
Shechem,
and
for
the
children
of
Hepher,
and
for
the
children
of
Shemida:
these
are
the
children
of
Manasseh,
the
son
of
Joseph,
the
males, according
to
their
families.
\VS{3}And
Zelophehad,
the
son
of
Hepher,
the
son
of
Gilead,
the
son
of
Machir,
the
son
of
Manasseh,
had
no
sons,
but
daughters;
and
these
are
the
names
of
his
daughters:
Mahlah,
and
Noah,
Hoglah,
Milcah,
and
Tirzah.
\VS{4}And
they
came
near
before
Eleazar
the
priest,
and
before
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun,
and
before
the
princes,
saying,
Jehovah
commanded
Moses
to
give
us
an
inheritance
among
our
brethren.
And
he
gave
them
according
to
the
commandment
of
Jehovah
an
inheritance
among
the
brethren
of
their
father.
\VS{5}And
there
fell
ten
portions
to
Manasseh,
besides
the
land
of
Gilead
and
Bashan,
which
are
beyond
the
Jordan.
\VS{6}For
the
daughters
of
Manasseh
received
an
inheritance
among
his
sons;
and
the
rest
of Manasseh's
sons
had
the
land
of
Gilead.
\VS{7}And
the
territory
of
Manasseh
was
from
Asher
to Micmethath,
which
is
before
Shechem,
and
the
border
went
on
the
right
hand
toward
the
inhabitants
of
En-Tappuah.
\VS{8}Manasseh
had
the
land
of
Tappuah;
but
Tappuah
on
the
border
of
Manasseh
belonged
to
the
children
of
Ephraim.
\VS{9}And
the
border
descended
to
the torrent
Kanah,
south
of
the torrent.
These
cities
were Ephraim's
among
the
cities
of
Manasseh.
And
the
territory
of
Manasseh
was
on
the
north
side
of
the torrent,
and ended
at
the
sea.
\VS{10}Southward
it
was Ephraim's,
and
northward
it
was Manasseh's,
and
the
sea
was
his
border.
And they
touched
upon
Asher
on
the
north,
and
upon
Issachar
on
the
east.
\VS{11}And
Manasseh
had
in
Issachar
and
in
Asher,
Beth-shean
and
its dependent
villages,
and
Ibleam
and
its dependent
villages,
and
the
inhabitants
of
Dor
and
its dependent
villages,
and
the
inhabitants
of
En-Dor
and
its dependent
villages,
and
the
inhabitants
of
Taanach
and
its dependent
villages,
and
the
inhabitants
of
Megiddo
and
its dependent
villages,
the
three hilly regions.
\VS{12}But
the
children
of
Manasseh
could
not
dispossess [the
inhabitants
of]
those
cities;
and
the
Canaanites would
dwell
in
that
land.
\VS{13}And
it
came
to
pass
when
the
children
of
Israel
were
become
strong,
that
they
made
the
Canaanites tributary;
but
they
did
not utterly
dispossess
them.
\VS{14}And
the
children
of
Joseph
spoke
to
Joshua,
saying,
Why hast thou
given
me
as
inheritance
one
lot
and
one
portion, seeing
I
am
a
great
people, forasmuch
as
Jehovah
has
blessed
me hitherto?
\VS{15}And
Joshua
said unto
them,
If thou art
a
great
people,
then
get thee
up
to
the wood,
and cut
down
for thyself
there
in
the
land
of
the
Perizzites
and
of
the giants,
if
the hill-country
of
Ephraim
is
too
narrow
for thee.
\VS{16}And
the
children
of
Joseph
said,
The hill-country
will
not
be
enough
for
us;
and
all
the
Canaanites
that
dwell
in
the
land
of
the
valley
have
chariots
of
iron,
those
that
are
of
Beth-shean
and
its dependent
villages,
and
those
that
are
in
the
valley
of Jizreel.
\VS{17}And
Joshua
spoke
to
the
house
of
Joseph,
to
Ephraim
and
to
Manasseh,
saying, Thou art
a
great
people,
and hast
great
power: thou shalt
not
have
one
lot
only,
\VS{18}but
the hill-country
shall
be thine,
as
it
is
a wood, thou shalt cut
it
down,
and
its outgoings
shall
be thine;
for thou shalt
dispossess
the
Canaanites,
though
they
have
iron
chariots;
for
they
are
powerful.

\par }\Chap{18}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
the
whole
assembly
of
the
children
of
Israel
gathered
together
at
Shiloh,
and
set
up
the
tent
of
meeting
there;
and
the
land
was
subdued
before
them.
\VS{2}And
there
remained
among
the
children
of
Israel
seven
tribes
whose
inheritance
had
not
been distributed
to
them.
\VS{3}And
Joshua
said
to
the
children
of
Israel,
How
long
will ye shew
yourselves
slack
to
go
to
take
possession
of
the
land
which
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 18:3 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
your
fathers hath
given
you?
\VS{4}Provide
you
three
men
for
a
tribe;
that
I
may
send
them,
and
they
shall
rise
and
go
through
the
land,
and
describe
it
according
to
the
proportion
of
their
inheritance,
and
they
shall
come
to
me.
\VS{5}And
they
shall
divide
it
into
seven
portions.
Judah
shall
remain
in
their
border
on
the
south,
and
the
house
of
Joseph
shall
remain
in
their
border
on
the
north;

{\BD{ye}}
shall
describe
the

I
will
cast
lots
for
you
here
before
Jehovah
our
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 18:6 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{7}But
the
Levites
have
no
portion
among
you,
for
the
priesthood
of
Jehovah
is
their
inheritance.
And
Gad,
and
Reuben,
and
half
the
tribe
of
Manasseh
have
received
their
inheritance
beyond
the
Jordan
on
the
east,
which
Moses
the
servant
of
Jehovah
gave
them.
\VS{8}And
the
men
arose
and
went
away.
And
Joshua
charged
them
that
went
to
describe
the
land,
saying,
Go
and
walk
through
the
land,
and
describe
it,
and
come
again
to
me,
and
I
will
cast
lots
for
you
here
before
Jehovah
in
Shiloh.
\VS{9}And
the
men
went
and
passed
through
the
land,
and
described
it
by
cities
into
seven
portions,
in
a
book,
and
they
came
to
Joshua,
to
the
camp
at
Shiloh.
\VS{10}And
Joshua
cast
lots
for
them
in
Shiloh
before
Jehovah.
And
there
Joshua
divided
the
land
to
the
children
of
Israel according
to
their
divisions.
\VS{11}And
the
lot
of
the
tribe
of
the

Benjamin
came
up according

their
families.
And
the

\par }\Chap{20}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
Jehovah
spoke
to
Joshua,
saying,
\VS{2}Speak
to
the

Israel,
saying,
Appoint
for
yourselves
the
cities
of
refuge, whereof
I
spoke unto
you
through
Moses,
\VS{3}that
the
slayer
who unwittingly
without intent smiteth
any
one mortally
may
flee thither:
and
they
shall
be
your
refuge
from
the
avenger
of
blood.
\VS{4}And
he
shall
flee unto
one
of
those
cities
and
stand
at
the
entrance
of
the city-gate,
and
shall
declare
his
matter
in
the
ears
of
the
elders
of
that
city;
and
they
shall
take
him
into
the
city unto
them,
and
give
him
a
place,
that
he
may
dwell
among
them.
\VS{5}And
if
the
avenger
of
blood
pursue
after
him,
they
shall
not
deliver
the
slayer
up
into
his
hand;
for
he
smote
his neighbour unwittingly,
and
hated
him
not
previously.
\VS{6}And
he
shall
dwell
in
that
city,
until
he
have
stood
before
the
assembly
in
judgment,
until
the
death
of
the high-priest
that
shall
be
in
those
days;
then
shall
the slayer
return,
and
come unto
his
own
city,
and unto
his
own
house, unto
the
city
from whence
he
fled.

Joshua
called

take
great
heed

Joshua
blessed
them,

sent
them
away;

went
to
their
tents.

to
half

Moses
had
given [inheritance]
in
Bashan,

Joshua
given

the
children

children
of

built
there
an
altar
by

altar
of grand
appearance.

heard
say,
Behold,

gathered
together
at

go
up

of

to
turn

too
little

from
which
we
are
not
cleansed
until

although
there
was

turn
away

it
will
be,
that
since ye
rebel
this

against
Jehovah, to-morrow
he
will
be wroth
with
the
whole
assembly
of
Israel.
\VS{19}Notwithstanding,
if

is
unclean, come
over
into
the
land
of
the
possession
of

where Jehovah's
tabernacle dwelleth,
and
take
possession amongst
us;
but
rebel
not
against
Jehovah,
and
rebel
not
against
us,
in
building
for
yourselves
an
altar
besides
the
altar
of
Jehovah
our

\VS{20}Did
not
Achan

in

and
wrath
fell
on
all

perished
not

iniquity.

that
we
have
built
for

to
turn
from
following
Jehovah,
and
if
it
is
to
offer
up burnt-offering
and oblation
on

and
if

offer peace-offerings
thereon, let
Jehovah
himself
require
it [from

if
we
have
not
done
it
from fear
of

saying,
In future
your

saying,
What

And
so
shall
your

make

cease
from fearing
Jehovah.
\VS{26}And
we
said,
Let
us
now
set
to work
to
build
an

not
for burnt-offering,
nor
for

\VS{27}but
to
be
a

between

that
we
might
do
service
to
Jehovah
before

with

and
with
our peace-offerings;
that
your
children
may
not
say
to
our
children
in future, Ye
have
no

in

\VS{28}And
we
said,
If
it
shall
be
that
in future
they
so
say
to
us
and
to

we
will
say,
Behold

of

which

made,
not

\VS{29}Far

it
from

Phinehas
the

of
the
assembly
and

of
the
thousands
of

that
were
with
him
heard
the
words
that
the
children
of
Reuben
and

and

spoke,
it
was
good
in
their
sight.
\VS{31}And
Phinehas
the
son
of
Eleazar
the
priest
said unto
the
children
of
Reuben,
and
to
the
children
of
Gad,
and
to
the
children
of
Manasseh,
This
day
we
perceive
that
Jehovah
is
among
us,
because ye
have
not
committed
this
trespass
against
Jehovah:
now
have ye
delivered
the
children
of
Israel
out
of
the
hand
of
Jehovah.
\VS{32}And
Phinehas
the
son
of

returned
from

from

of

out
of
the
land
of
Gilead,
to
the
land
of
Canaan,
to
the
children
of
Israel,
and
brought
them
word
again.
\VS{33}And
the
thing
was
good
in
the
sight
of
the
children
of
Israel,
and
the
children
of
Israel
blessed
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 22:33 }

and
no
more
said
that

up
in
warfare
against
them,
to
destroy
the
land
in
which
the

of
Reuben
and

of
Gad
dwelt.
\VS{34}And
the
children
of
Reuben
and
the

of
Gad
gave
a
name
to
the
altar;
for
it
is
a
witness
between

it
came
to

a
long

rest

round

Joshua
had

I

seen
all
that
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 23:3 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God hath
done
to
all
these
nations
because
of

For
Jehovah
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 23:3 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
is
he
that hath
fought
for

\par }\Chap{24}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
Joshua
gathered
all
the
tribes
of
Israel
to
Shechem,
and
called
for
the
elders
of
Israel,
and
for
their
heads,
and
for
their
judges,
and
for
their
officers;
and
they
presented
themselves
before
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:1 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{2}And
Joshua
said unto
all
the
people,
Thus saith
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:2 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel:
Your
fathers
dwelt
of
old
on
the
other
side
of
the
river,
Terah,
the
father
of
Abraham
and
the
father
of
Nahor,
and
they
served
other
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:2 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods.
\VS{3}And
I
took
your
father
Abraham
from
the
other
side
of
the
river,
and led
him
throughout
the
land
of
Canaan,
and
multiplied
his
seed
and
gave
him
Isaac.
\VS{4}And
I
gave unto
Isaac
Jacob
and
Esau;
and
I
gave unto
Esau
mount
Seir,
to
possess
it;
and
Jacob
and
his
sons
went
down
into
Egypt.
\VS{5}And
I
sent
Moses
and
Aaron,
and
I
plagued
Egypt,
according
to
that
which
I
did
among
them;
and
afterwards
I
brought
you
out.
\VS{6}And
I
brought
your
fathers
out
of
Egypt,
and ye
came unto
the
sea;
and
the
Egyptians
pursued
after
your
fathers
with
chariots
and
horsemen unto
the Red
sea.
\VS{7}Then
they
cried
to
Jehovah,
and
he
put
darkness
between
you
and
the
Egyptians,
and
brought
the
sea
upon
them,
and
covered
them;
and
your
eyes
saw
what
I
did
in
Egypt;
and ye
dwelt
in
the
wilderness
a
long
time.
\VS{8}And
I
brought
you
into
the
land
of
the
Amorites,
who
dwelt
beyond
the
Jordan,
and
they
fought
with
you,
and
I
gave
them
into
your
hand,
and ye
took
possession
of
their
land,
and
I
destroyed
them
from
before
you.
\VS{9}And
Balak
the
son
of
Zippor,
king
of
Moab,
arose
and warred
against
Israel,
and
sent
and
called
Balaam
the
son
of
Beor
to
curse
you;
\VS{10}but
I
would
not hearken unto
Balaam,
and
he
blessed
you expressly,
and
I
delivered
you
out
of
his
hand.
\VS{11}And ye
went
over
the
Jordan,
and
came unto
Jericho,
and
the
men
of
Jericho
fought
against
you,
the
Amorites,
and
the
Perizzites,
and
the
Canaanites,
and
the
Hittites,
and
the
Girgashites,
the
Hivites,
and
the
Jebusites;
and
I
delivered
them
into
your
hand.
\VS{12}And
I
sent
the
hornet
before
you,
which
drove
them
out
from
before
you, [as]
the
two
kings
of
the
Amorites;
not
with thy
sword,
nor
with thy
bow.
\VS{13}And
I
have
given
you
a
land
for
which ye
did
not labour,
and
cities
which ye
built
not,
and ye
dwell
in
them;
of
vineyards
and oliveyards
which ye
planted
not do ye
eat.
\VS{14}And
now
fear
Jehovah
and
serve
him
in perfectness
and
in
truth;
and
put
away
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:14 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods
which
your
fathers
served
on
the
other
side
of
the
river,
and
in
Egypt;
and
serve
Jehovah.
\VS{15}And
if
it
seem
evil unto
you
to
serve
Jehovah,
choose
you
this
day
whom ye
will
serve;
whether

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods
whom
your
fathers
that
were
on
the
other
side
of

served,
or
the

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods
of
the
Amorite,
in
whose
land ye
dwell;
but
as
for
me
and
my
house,
we
will
serve
Jehovah.
\VS{16}And
the
people
answered
and
said,
Far
be
it
from
us
that we
should
forsake
Jehovah,
to
serve
other
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:16 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods;
\VS{17}for
Jehovah
our
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:17 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God,
he
it
is
that
brought
us
up
and
our
fathers
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
from
the
house
of
bondage,
and
who
did
those
great
signs
before
our
eyes,
and
preserved
us
in
all
the
way
wherein
we
went,
and
among
all
the
peoples
through
whom
we
passed!
\VS{18}And
Jehovah
drove
out
from
before
us
all
the
peoples,
and
the
Amorites
the
inhabitants
of
the
land:
so
therefore
we
will
serve
Jehovah,
for
he
is
our
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:18 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{19}And
Joshua
said
to
the
people, Ye
cannot
serve
Jehovah,
for
he
is
a
holy
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:19 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God;
he
is
a
jealous
\FTNT{*}{{\FR 24:19 }

El|strong="H0410"}God;
he
will
not
forgive
your
transgressions
nor
your
sins.
\VS{20}If ye
forsake
Jehovah,
and
serve
strange
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:20 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods,
then
he
will
turn
and
do
you hurt,
and
consume
you,
after
that
he hath
done
you
good.
\VS{21}And
the
people
said
to
Joshua,
No;
but
we
will
serve
Jehovah.
\VS{22}And
Joshua
said unto
the
people, Ye
are
witnesses
against
yourselves
that ye
have
chosen
you
Jehovah,
to
serve
him.
And
they
said, [We
are]
witnesses.
\VS{23}Now
therefore
put
away
the
strange
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:23 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}gods
that
are
among
you,
and
incline
your
heart unto
Jehovah
the
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:23 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
of
Israel.
\VS{24}And
the
people
said unto
Joshua,
Jehovah
our
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:24 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God
will
we
serve,
and
to
his
voice
will
we hearken.
\VS{25}So
Joshua
made
a
covenant
with
the
people
that
day,
and
set
them
a
statute
and
an
ordinance
in
Shechem.
\VS{26}And
Joshua
wrote
these
words
in
the
book
of
the
law
of
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:26 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God,
and
took
a
great
stone,
and
set
it
up
there
under
the
oak
that
was
by
the
sanctuary
of
Jehovah.
\VS{27}And
Joshua
said unto
all
the
people,
Behold,
this
stone
shall
be
a
witness unto
us,
for
it hath
heard
all
the
words
of
Jehovah
which
he
spoke unto
us;
and
it
shall
be
a
witness
against
you,
lest ye
deny
your
\FTNT{°}{{\FR 24:27 }

Elohim|strong="H0430"}God.
\VS{28}And
Joshua
dismissed
the
people,
every
man
to
his
inheritance.
\VS{29}And
it
came
to
pass
after
these
things,
that
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun,
the
servant
of
Jehovah,
died,
a
hundred
and
ten
years
old.
\VS{30}And
they
buried
him
in
the
border
of
his
inheritance
in Timnath-serah,
which
is
in
mount
Ephraim,
on
the
north
side
of
the
mountain
of
Gaash.
\VS{31}And
Israel
served
Jehovah
all
the
days
of
Joshua,
and
all
the
days
of
the
elders
whose
days
were
prolonged
after
Joshua,
and
who
had
known
all
the
works
of
Jehovah,
which
he
had
done
for
Israel.
\VS{32}And
the
bones
of
Joseph,
which
the
children
of
Israel
had
brought
up
out
of
Egypt,
buried
they
in
Shechem
in
the
portion
of
the
field
which
Jacob
had
bought
of
the
sons
of
Hamor, Shechem's
father,
for
a
hundred kesitahs;
and
it
became
the
inheritance
of
the
children
of
Joseph.
\VS{33}And
Eleazar
the
son
of
Aaron
died;
and
they
buried
him
in
the
hill
of
Phinehas
his
son,
which
had
been
given
him
in
mount
Ephraim.
