¹⁵ And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this service in this month.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ From thence they removed, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wilderness that cometh out of the coasts of the Amorites: for Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Let me pass through thy land: we will not turn into the fields, or into the vineyards; we will not drink of the waters of the well: but we will go along by the king's high way, until we be past thy borders.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And Sihon would not suffer Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and went out against Israel into the wilderness: and he came to Jahaz, and fought against Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and possessed his land from Arnon unto Jabbok, even unto the children of Ammon: for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ And Israel took all these cities: and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon, and in all the villages thereof.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ For Heshbon was the city of Sihon the king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, even unto Arnon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ Wherefore they that speak in proverbs say, Come into Heshbon, let the city of Sihon be built and prepared:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ For there is a fire gone out of Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon: it hath consumed Ar of Moab, and the lords of the high places of Arnon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh: he hath given his sons that escaped, and his daughters, into captivity unto Sihon king of the Amorites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁰ We have shot at them; Heshbon is perished even unto Dibon, and we have laid them waste even unto Nophah, which reacheth unto Medeba.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² And Moses sent to spy out Jaazer, and they took the villages thereof, and drove out the Amorites that were there.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³³ And they turned and went up by the way of Bashan: and Og the king of Bashan went out against them, he, and all his people, to the battle at Edrei.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ And the LORD said unto Moses, Fear him not: for I have delivered him into thy hand, and all his people, and his land; and thou shalt do to him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁵ So they smote him, and his sons, and all his people, until there was none left him alive: and they possessed his land.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³³ And Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And the LORD said unto me, Fear him not: for I will deliver him, and all his people, and his land, into thy hand; and thou shalt do unto him as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And we took at that time out of the hand of the two kings of the Amorites the land that was on this side Jordan, from the river of Arnon unto mount Hermon;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Which Hermon the Sidonians call Sirion; and the Amorites call it Shenir;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And when we departed from Horeb, we went through all that great and terrible wilderness, which ye saw by the way of the mountain of the Amorites, as the LORD our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh-barnea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And I said unto you, Ye are come unto the mountain of the Amorites, which the LORD our God doth give unto us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ And ye murmured in your tents, and said, Because the LORD hated us, he hath brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁴ And the Amorites, which dwelt in that mountain, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and destroyed you in Seir, even unto Hormah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And the LORD shall do unto them as he did to Sihon and to Og, kings of the Amorites, and unto the land of them, whom he destroyed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁶ On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁷ And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising; sunrising;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against the LORD your God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, which were on the side of Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, which were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of Jordan from before the children of Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And Joshua said, Alas, O Lord GOD, wherefore hast thou at all brought this people over Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us? would to God we had been content, and dwelt on the other side Jordan!

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and to Ai,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ They did work wilily, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And old shoes and clouted upon their feet, and old garments upon them; and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said unto him, and to the men of Israel, We be come from a far country: now therefore make ye a league with us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites, Peradventure ye dwell among us; and how shall we make a league with you?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And they said unto Joshua, We are thy servants. And Joshua said unto them, Who are ye? and from whence come ye?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And they said unto him, From a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of the LORD thy God: for we have heard the fame of him, and all that he did in Egypt,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² That they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Wherefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham king of Hebron, and unto Piram king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia king of Lachish, and unto Debir king of Eglon, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Come up unto me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon: for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Gibeon, and made war against it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Slack 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 mountains are gathered together against us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Joshua therefore came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ In the mountains, and in the valleys, and in the plains, and in the springs, and in the wilderness, and in the south country; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ From the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that is beside the Sidonians, unto Aphek, to the borders of the Amorites:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, which dwelt on the other side Jordan; and they fought with you: and I gave them into your hand, that ye might possess their land; and I destroyed them from before you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, which was at Ashtaroth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us, saying, Take victuals with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, We are your servants: therefore now make ye a league with us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; but now, behold, it is dry, and it is mouldy:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And these bottles of wine, which we filled, were new; and, behold, they be rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And the men took of their victuals, and asked not counsel at the mouth of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And Joshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, to let them live: and the princes of the congregation sware unto them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a league with them, that they heard that they were their neighbours, and that they dwelt among them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And the LORD discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Beth-horon, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men by it for to keep them:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And stay ye not, but pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them entered into fenced cities.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out those five kings unto me out of the cave.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And they did so, and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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 wherein they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ And all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, unto the border of the children of Ammon;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And Moses gave unto the tribe of the children of Reuben inheritance according to their families.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And their coast was from Aroer, that is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the midst of the river, and all the plain by Medeba;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Heshbon, and all her cities that are in the plain; Dibon, and Bamoth-baal, and Beth-baal-meon,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And Jahazah, and Kedemoth, and Mephaath,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zareth-shahar in the mount of the valley,
