Joshua 11:16 (KJV) King James Version

1 And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 And to the kings that were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,
3 And 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 under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.
4 And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.
5 And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
6 And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.
7 So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
8 And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephoth-maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.
9 And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.
11 And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.
12 And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
13 But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.
14 And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.
15 As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
16 So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;
17 Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.
18 Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
19 There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle.
20 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
21 And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.
22 There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.
23 So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
1 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when Jabin H2985 king H4428 NMS of Hazor H2674 had heard H8085 those things , that he sent H7971 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Jobab H3103 EMS king H4428 NMS of Madon H4068 , and to H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Shimron H8110 , and to H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Achshaph H407 ,
2 And to H413 W-PREP the kings H4428 that H834 RPRO were on the north H6828 of the mountains H2022 , and of the plains H6160 south H5045 of Chinneroth H3672 , and in the valley H8219 , and in the borders H5299 of Dor H1756 on the west H3220 ,
3 And to the Canaanite H3669 on the east H4217 and on the west H3220 , and to the Amorite H567 , and the Hittite H2850 , and the Perizzite H6522 WD-EMS , and the Jebusite H2983 in the mountains H2022 , and to the Hivite H2340 under H8478 NMS Hermon H2768 in the land H776 B-GFS of Mizpeh H4709 .
4 And they went out H3318 W-VQY3MP , they H1992 PPRO-3MP and all H3605 W-CMS their hosts H4264 with H5973 PREP-3MP them , much H7227 AMS people H5971 NMS , even as the sand H2344 that H834 RPRO is upon H5921 PREP the sea H3220 D-NMS shore H8193 CFS in multitude H7230 LD-NMS , with horses H5483 and chariots H7393 very H3966 ADV many H7227 AMS .
5 And when all H3605 NMS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP kings H4428 were met together H3259 W-VNY3MP , they came H935 W-VQY3MP and pitched H2583 W-VQY3MP together H3162 ADV-3MS at H413 PREP the waters H4325 of Merom H4792 , to fight H3898 against H5973 PREP Israel H3478 LMS .
6 And the LORD H3068 EDS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Joshua H3091 , Be not H408 NPAR afraid H3372 because of L-CMP them : for H3588 CONJ tomorrow H4279 NMS about this H2063 D-DFS time H6256 KD-NMS will I H595 PPRO-1MS deliver them up H5414 VQPMS all H3605 CMS-3MP slain H2491 NMP before H6440 L-CMP Israel H3478 : thou shalt hamstring H6131 their horses H5483 , and burn H8313 their chariots H4818 with fire H784 .
7 So Joshua H3091 came H935 W-VQY3MS , and all H3605 W-CMS the people H5971 NMS of war H4421 with H5973 PREP-3MS him , against H5921 PREP them by H5921 PREP the waters H4325 of Merom H4792 suddenly H6597 ADV ; and they fell H5307 W-VQY3MP upon them .
8 And the LORD H3068 EDS delivered H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Israel H3478 , who smote H5221 them , and chased H7291 them unto H5704 PREP great H7227 AFS Zidon H6721 , and unto H5704 PREP Misrephoth H4956 - maim , and unto H5704 PREP the valley H1237 of Mizpeh H4708 eastward H4217 ; and they smote H5221 them , until H5704 PREP they left H7604 them none H1115 PREP remaining H8300 .
9 And Joshua H3091 did H6213 W-VQY3MS unto them as H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS bade H559 him : he hamstrung H6131 their horses H5483 , and burnt H8313 their chariots H4818 with fire H784 .
10 And Joshua H3091 at that H1931 PPRO-3FS time H6256 turned back H7725 , and took H3920 Hazor H2674 , and smote H5221 the king H4428 thereof with the sword H2719 : for H3588 CONJ Hazor H2674 formerly H6440 L-NMP was the head H7218 NMS of all H3605 NMS those H428 kingdoms H4467 .
11 And they smote H5221 W-VHY3MP all H3605 NMS the souls H5315 D-NFS that H834 RPRO were therein with the edge H6310 L-CMS of the sword H2719 GFS , utterly destroying H2763 them : there was not H3808 NADV any H3605 NMS left H3498 to breathe H5397 : and he burnt H8313 Hazor H2674 with fire H784 .
12 And all H3605 NMS the cities H5892 of those H428 D-DPRO-3MP kings H4428 , and all H3605 NMS the kings H4428 of them , did Joshua H3091 take H3920 , and smote H5221 W-VHY3MS-3MP them with the edge H6310 L-CMS of the sword H2719 GFS , and he utterly destroyed H2763 them , as H834 K-RPRO Moses H4872 the servant H5650 NMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS .
13 But H7535 ADV as for the cities H5892 that stood still H5975 in H5921 PREP their strength H8510 , Israel H3478 burned H8313 none H3808 NADV of them , save H2108 Hazor H2674 only H905 ; that did Joshua H3091 burn H8313 .
14 And all H3605 NMS the spoil H7998 of these H428 D-DPRO-3MP cities H5892 , and the cattle H929 WD-NFS , the children H1121 of Israel H3478 took for a prey H962 unto themselves ; but H7535 ADV every H3605 NMS man H120 D-NMS they smote H5221 VHQ3MP with the edge H6310 L-CMS of the sword H2719 GFS , until H5704 PREP they had destroyed H8045 them , neither H3808 NADV left H7604 they any H3605 NMS to breathe H5397 .
15 As H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS Moses H4872 his servant H5650 , so H3651 ADV did Moses H4872 command H6680 VPQ3MS Joshua H3091 , and so H3651 ADV did H6213 VQQ3MS Joshua H3091 ; he left nothing undone H5493 VHQ3MS of all H3605 M-CMS that H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS Moses H4872 .
16 So Joshua H3091 took H3947 W-VQY3MS all H3605 NMS that H2063 D-DFS land H776 D-GFS , the hills H2022 , and all H3605 NMS the south country H5045 D-NMS , and all H3605 NMS the land H776 GFS of Goshen H1657 , and the valley H8219 , and the plain H6160 , and the mountain H2022 CMS of Israel H3478 , and the valley H8219 of the same ;
17 Even from H4480 PREP the mount H2022 Halak H2510 , that goeth up H5927 to Seir H8165 LFS , even unto H5704 W-PREP Baal H1171 - gad in the valley H1237 of Lebanon H3844 under H8478 NMS mount H2022 CMS Hermon H2768 : and all H3605 NMS their kings H4428 he took H3920 , and smote H5221 W-VHY3MS-3MP them , and slew H4191 them .
18 Joshua H3091 made H6213 VQQ3MS war H4421 a long H7227 AMP time H3117 NMP with H854 PREP all H3605 NMS those H428 D-DPRO-3MP kings H4428 .
19 There was H1961 VQQ3FS not H3808 ADV a city H5892 GFS that H834 RPRO made peace H7999 with H413 PREP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , save H1115 PREP the Hivites H2340 the inhabitants H3427 of Gibeon H1391 : all H3605 other they took H3947 in battle H4421 .
20 For H3588 CONJ it was H1961 VQQ3FS of the LORD H3068 EDS to harden H2388 their hearts H3820 CMS-3MP , that they should come against H7125 L-VQFC Israel H3478 in battle H4421 , that H4616 L-CONJ he might destroy H2763 them utterly , and that they might have H1961 VQFC no H1115 L-NPAR favor H8467 , but H3588 CONJ that H4616 L-CONJ he might destroy H8045 them , as H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS commanded H6680 VPQ3MS Moses H4872 .
21 And at that H1931 time H6256 came H935 W-VQY3MS Joshua H3091 , and cut off H3772 the Anakims H6062 from H4480 PREP the mountains H2022 , from H4480 PREP Hebron H2275 , from H4480 PREP Debir H1688 , from H4480 PREP Anab H6024 , and from all H3605 WM-CMS the mountains H2022 CMS of Judah H3063 , and from all H3605 WM-CMS the mountains H2022 CMS of Israel H3478 : Joshua H3091 destroyed H2763 them utterly with H5973 PREP their cities H5892 .
22 There was none H3808 ADV of the Anakims H6062 left H3498 in the land H776 B-GFS of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 : only H7535 ADV in Gaza H5804 , in Gath H1661 , and in Ashdod H795 , there remained H7604 .
23 So Joshua H3091 took H3947 W-VQY3MS the whole H3605 NMS land H776 D-GFS , according to all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS said H1696 VPQ3MS unto H413 PREP Moses H4872 ; and Joshua H3091 gave H5414 it for an inheritance H5159 unto Israel H3478 according to their divisions H4256 by their tribes H7626 . And the land H776 WD-GFS rested H8252 from war H4421 .
