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

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.

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

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

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

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

²⁸ And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did unto the king of Jericho.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁶ And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁸ And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁰ So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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.
