1: And it came to pass,H1961 when heardH8085 Adoni-ZedekH0139 kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389 howH3588 had takenH3920 JoshuaH3091 -H0853 Ai,H5857 and had utterly destroyed itH2763 asH0834 he had doneH6213 to JerichoH3405 and its king,H4428 soH3651 he had doneH6213 to AiH5857 and its king-H4428 and howH3588 had made peaceH7999 the inhabitantsH3427 of GibeonH1391 withH0854 Israel,H3478 and wereH1961 among them.H7130

2: That they fearedH3372 greatly,H3966 becauseH3588 a city,H5892 greatH1419 Gibeon [was]H1391 like oneH0259 of cities,H5892 the royalH4467 and becauseH3588 it [was]H1931 greaterH1419 thanH4480 Ai,H5857 and allH3605 its men [were]H0376 mighty.H1368

3: Therefore sentH7971 Adoni-ZedekH0139 kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389 toH0413 HohamH1944 kingH4428 of Hebron,H2275 andH0413 PiramH6502 kingH4428 of Jarmuth,H3412 andH0413 JaphiaH3309 kingH4428 of Lachish,H3923 andH0413 DebirH1688 kingH4428 of Eglon,H5700 saying,H0559

4: come upH5927 to meH0413 and help meH5826 that we may attackH5221 -H0853 Gibeon,H1391 forH3588 it has made peaceH7999 withH0854 JoshuaH3091 and withH0854 the sonsH1121 of Israel.H3478

5: Therefore gathered together,H0622 and went up,H5927 fiveH2568 the kingsH4428 of the Amorites,H0567 the kingH4428 of Jerusalem,H3389 the kingH4428 of Hebron,H2275 the kingH4428 of Jarmuth,H3412 the kingH4428 of Lachish,H3923 [and] the kingH4428 of Eglon,H5700 theyH1992 and allH3605 their armies,H4264 and campedH2583 beforeH5921 Gibeon,H1391 and made warH3898 against it.H5921

6: And sentH7971 the menH0376 of GibeonH1391 toH0413 JoshuaH3091 atH0413 the campH4264 at Gilgal,H1537 saying,H0559 notH0408 do forsakeH7503 -H3027 your servants-H5650 come upH5927 to usH0413 quickly,H4120 and saveH3467 and help usH5826 forH3588 have gathered togetherH6908 against usH0413 allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH0567 who dwellH3427 in the mountains.H2022

7: So ascendedH5927 JoshuaH3091 fromH4480 Gilgal,H1537 he,H1931 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 of warH4421 with himH5973 and allH3605 the mighty menH1368 of valor.H2428

8: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Joshua,H3091 not-H0408 do fearH3372 themH1992 forH3588 into your hand-H3027 I have delivered themH5414 notH3808 shall standH5975 a manH0376 of themH1992 before you.H6440

9: Therefore cameH0935 upon themH0413 JoshuaH3091 suddenly,H6597 allH3605 night.H3915 Having marchedH5927 fromH4480 Gilgal.H1537

10: So routed themH2000 YahwehH3068 beforeH6440 Israel,H3478 and killed themH5221 with a slaughterH4347 greatH1419 at Gibeon,H1391 and chased themH7291 along the roadH1870 that goesH4609 to Beth Horon,H1032 and struck them downH5221 as far asH5704 Azekah,H5825 andH5704 Makkedah.H4719

11: And it came to pass,H1961 as they fledH5127 beforeH6440 Israel,H3478 they [were]H1992 on the descentH4174 Beth Horon,H1032 that YahwehH3068 cast downH7993 on themH5921 hailstonesH0068 largeH1419 fromH4480 heavenH8064 as far asH5704 Azekah,H5825 and they died-H4191 [There were] moreH7227 whoH0834 diedH4191 fromH0068 the hailstonesH1259 thanH0834 killedH2026 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 with the sword.H2719

12: ThenH0227 spokeH1696 JoshuaH3091 to YahwehH3068 in the dayH3117 when delivered upH5414 YahwehH3068 -H0853 the AmoritesH0567 beforeH6440 the sonsH1121 of Israel,H3478 and he saidH0559 in the sightH5869 of Israel,H3478 Sun,H8121 over Gibeon-H1391 stand stillH1826 and Moon,H3394 in the ValleyH6010 of Aijalon.H0357

13: So stood still,H1826 the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 stopped,H5975 TillH5704 had revengeH5358 the peopleH1471 Upon their enemies.H0341 [Is] notH3808 itH1931 writtenH3789 inH5921 the ScrollH5612 of the Upright one?H3477 so stood stillH5975 the sunH8121 in the midstH2677 of heaven,H8064 and notH3808 did hastenH0213 to go [down]H0935 for about a dayH3117 whole.H8549

14: And noH3808 there has beenH1961 like dayH3117 thatH1931 before itH6440 or after itH0310 that heededH8085 YahwehH3068 the voiceH6963 of a man-H0376 forH3588 YahwehH3068 foughtH3898 for Israel.H3478

15: And returned,H7725 JoshuaH3091 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 with himH5973 toH0413 the campH4264 at Gilgal.H1537

16: But had fled,H5127 fiveH2568 kingsH4428 theseH0428 and hidden themselvesH2244 in a caveH4631 at Makkedah.H4719

17: And it was toldH5046 Joshua,H3091 saying,H0559 have been foundH4672 fiveH2568 the kingsH4428 hiddenH2244 in the caveH4631 at Makkedah.H4719

18: So said,H0559 JoshuaH3091 RollH1556 stonesH0068 largeH1419 againstH0413 the mouthH6310 of the cave,H4631 and setH6485 by itH5921 menH0582 to guard them.H8104

19: And youH0859 not,H0408 do stay [there]H5975 [but] pursueH7291 afterH0310 your enemies,H0341 and attack rear [guard]H2179 theirH0853 notH0408 do allow themH5414 to enterH0935 intoH0413 their cities,H5892 forH3588 has delivered themH5414 YahwehH3068 your GodH0430 into your hand.H3027

20: And it came to pass,H1961 while made an endH3615 JoshuaH3091 and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 of slaying themH5221 with a slaughter,H4347 greatH1419 veryH3966 tillH5704 they had finished,H8552 that thoseH8300 who escapedH8277 of them themH1992 and enteredH0935 intoH0413 citiesH5892 fortified.H4013

21: And returnedH7725 allH3605 the peopleH5971 toH0413 the campH4264 toH0413 JoshuaH3091 at MakkedahH4719 in peace.H7965 No oneH3808 movedH2782 of the sonsH1121 of Israel.H3478 Against anyH0376 -H0853 his tongue.H3956

22: And saidH0559 Joshua,H3091 OpenH6605 -H0853 the mouthH6310 of the cave,H4631 and bring outH3318 to meH0413 -H0853 fiveH2568 kingsH4428 theseH0428 fromH4480 the cave.H4631

23: And they did,H6213 soH3651 and brought outH3318 to himH0413 -H0853 fiveH2568 kingsH4428 theseH0428 fromH4480 the cave,H4631 -H0853 the kingH4428 of Jerusalem,H3389 -H0853 the kingH4428 of Hebron,H2275 -H0853 the kingH4428 of Jarmuth,H3412 -H0853 the kingH4428 of Lachish,H3923 -H0853 [and] the kingH4428 of Eglon.H5700

24: So it was,H1961 when they brought outH3318 -H0853 kingsH4428 theseH0428 toH0413 Joshua,H3091 that calledH7121 JoshuaH3091 forH0413 allH3605 the menH0376 of Israel,H3478 and saidH0559 toH0413 the captainsH7101 of the menH0582 of warH4421 who wentH1980 with himH0854 come near,H7126 putH7760 -H0853 your feetH7272 onH5921 the necksH6677 of kings.H4428 TheseH0428 and they drew near,H7126 and putH7760 -H0853 their feetH7272 onH5921 their necks.H6677

25: And saidH0559 to themH0413 JoshuaH3091 not,H0408 do be afraidH3372 norH0408 be dismayed,H2865 be strongH2388 and of good courage,H0553 forH3588 thusH3602 will doH6213 YahwehH3068 to allH3605 your enemiesH0341 against whomH0834 youH0859 fightH3898 -.H0853

26: and struck themH5221 JoshuaH3091 afterwardH0310 afterwardH3651 and killed themH4191 and hanged themH8518 onH5921 fiveH2568 trees-H6086 and they wereH1961 hangingH8518 onH5921 the treesH6086 untilH5704 evening.H6153
