| 1:1 |
Now it came to pass after the death of Moses the servant of theJehovah Lord it came to pass that theJehovah Lord spake unto Joshua the son of Nun Moses minister saying |
| 1:3 |
Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon thatto you have I given untoit you as I saidspake unto Moses |
| 1:4 |
From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river the river Euphrates all the land of the Hittites and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your coastborder |
| 1:5 |
There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses so I will be with thee:; I will not fail thee nor forsake thee |
| 1:6 |
Be strong and of a good courage:; for untothou this people shalt thoucause dividethis forpeople anto inheritanceinherit the land which I sware unto their fathers to give them |
| 1:7 |
Only be thou strong and very courageous thatto thou mayest observe to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left that thou mayest prosperhave withersoevergood success whithersoever thou goest |
| 1:8 |
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate thereinthereon day and night that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous and then thou shalt have good success |
| 1:9 |
Have not I commanded thee Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraidaffrighted neither be thou dismayed: for theJehovah Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest |
| 1:11 |
Pass through the hostmidst of the camp and command the people saying Prepare you victuals; for within three days ye shallare to pass over this Jordan to go in to possess the land which theJehovah Lord your God giveth you to possess it |
| 1:12 |
And to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half the tribe of Manasseh spake Joshua saying |
| 1:13 |
Remember the word which Moses the servant of theJehovah Lord commanded you saying TheJehovah Lord your God hathgiveth given you rest and hathwill givengive you this land |
| 1:14 |
Your wives your little ones and your cattle shall remainabide in the land which Moses gave you onbeyond thisthe side Jordan; but ye shall pass over before your brethren armed all the mighty men of valourvalor and shall help them; |
| 1:15 |
Untiluntil theJehovah Lord have given your brethren rest as he hath given you and they also have possessed the land which theJehovah Lord your God giveth them: then ye shall return unto the land of your possession and enjoypossess it which Moses the Lords servant of Jehovah gave you onbeyond thisthe side Jordan toward the sunrising |
| 1:16 |
And they answered Joshua saying All that thou commandesthast commanded us we will do and whithersoever thou sendest us we will go |
| 1:17 |
According as we hearkened unto Moses in all things so will we hearken unto thee: only theJehovah Lord thy God be with thee as he was with Moses |
| 1:18 |
Whosoever he be that dothshall rebel against thy commandment and willshall not hearken unto thy words in all that thou commandest him he shall be put to death: only be strong and of a good courage |
| 2:1 |
And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men toas spyspies secretly saying Go view the land evenand Jericho And they went and came into anthe harlots house namedof a harlot whose name was Rahab and lodgedlay there |
| 2:2 |
And it was told the king of Jericho saying Behold there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the countryland |
| 2:3 |
And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab saying Bring forth the men that are come to thee whichthat are entered into thinethy house:; for they beare come to search out all the countryland |
| 2:4 |
And the woman took the two men and hid them; and she said thusYea Therethe men came men unto me but I wistknew not whence they were: |
| 2:5 |
Andand it came to pass about the time of the shutting of the gate when it was dark that the men went out:; whither the men went I wotknow not: pursue after them quickly; for ye shallwill overtake them |
| 2:6 |
But she had brought them up to the roof of the house and hid them with the stalks of flax which she had laid in order upon the roof |
| 2:7 |
And the men pursued after them the way to the Jordan unto the fords: and as soon as they whichthat pursued after them were gone out they shut the gate |
| 2:9 |
Andand she said unto the men I know that theJehovah Lord hath given you the land and that yourthe terrorfear of you is fallen upon us and that all the inhabitants of the land faintmelt becauseaway ofbefore you |
| 2:10 |
For we have heard how theJehovah Lord dried up the water of the Red seaSea forbefore you when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites that were onbeyond the otherJordan sideunto Jordan Sihon and to Og whom ye utterly destroyed |
| 2:11 |
And as soon as we had heard theseit things our hearts did melt neither did there remain any more couragespirit in any man because of you: for theJehovah Lord your God he is God in heaven above and inon earth beneath |
| 2:12 |
Now therefore I pray you swear unto me by theJehovah Lord since I have sheweddealt kindly with you kindness that ye also will alsodeal shewkindly kindnesswith unto my fathers house and give me a true token:; |
| 2:13 |
Andand that ye will save alive my father and my mother and my brethren and my sisters and all that they have and will deliver our lives from death |
| 2:14 |
And the men answeredsaid unto her Our life for yours if ye utter not this our business; Andand it shall be when theJehovah Lordgiveth hath given us the land that we will deal kindly and truly with thee |
| 2:15 |
Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was upon the townside of the wall and she dwelt upon the wall |
| 2:16 |
And she said unto them Get you to the mountain lest the pursuers meetlight upon you; and hide yourselves there three days until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way |
| 2:17 |
And the men said unto her We will be blamelessguiltless of this thine oath which thou hast made us to swear |
| 2:18 |
Behold when we come into the land thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bringgather unto thee into the house thy father and thy mother and thy brethren and all thy fathers household home unto thee |
| 2:19 |
And it shall be that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street his blood shall be upon his head and we willshall be guiltless: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house his blood shall be on our head if any hand be upon him |
| 2:20 |
AndBut if thou utter this our business then we willshall be quitguiltless of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear |
| 2:23 |
SoThen the two men returned and descended from the mountain and passed over and came to Joshua the son of Nun; and they told him all things that befellhad befallen them: |
| 2:24 |
And they said unto Joshua Truly theJehovah Lord hath delivered into our hands all the land; forand evenmoreover all the inhabitants of the countryland do faintmelt becauseaway ofbefore us |
| 3:1 |
And Joshua rose up early in the morning; and they removed from Shittim and came to the Jordan he and all the children of Israel; and they lodged there before they passed over |
| 3:2 |
And it came to pass after three days that the officers went through the hostmidst of the camp; |
| 3:3 |
Andand they commanded the people saying When ye see the ark of the covenant of theJehovah Lord your God and the priests the Levites bearing it then ye shall remove from your place and go after it |
| 3:4 |
Yet there shall be a space between you and it about two thousand cubits by measure: come not near unto it that ye may know the way by which ye must go:; for ye have not passed this way heretofore |
| 3:5 |
And Joshua said unto the people Sanctify yourselves:; for to morrow theJehovah Lord will do wonders among you |
| 3:7 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto 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 I will be with thee |
| 3:8 |
And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant saying When ye are come to the brink of the waterwaters of the Jordan ye shall stand still in the Jordan |
| 3:9 |
And Joshua said unto the children of Israel Come hither and hear the words of theJehovah Lord your God |
| 3:10 |
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 CanaanitesCanaanite and the HittitesHittite and the HivitesHivite and the PerizzitesPerizzite and the GirgashitesGirgashite and the AmoritesAmorite and the JebusitesJebusite |
| 3:11 |
Behold the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth over before you into the Jordan |
| 3:12 |
Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel outfor of every tribe a man |
| 3:13 |
And it shall come to pass aswhen soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of theJehovah Lord the Lord of all the earth shall rest in the waters of the Jordan that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off fromeven the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand uponin anone heap |
| 3:14 |
And it came to pass when the people removed from their tents to pass over the Jordan and the priests bearingthat bare the ark of the covenant being before the people; |
| 3:15 |
Andand aswhen they that bare the ark were come unto the Jordan and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brimbrink of the water for the Jordan overfloweth all hisits banks all the time of harvest |
| 3:16 |
Thatthat the waters which came down from above stood and rose up uponin anone heap verya fargreat fromway off at Adam the city Adam that is beside Zaretan:Zarethan; and those that camewent down toward the sea of the plainArabah even the saltSalt seaSea failedwere andwholly were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho |
| 3:17 |
And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of theJehovah Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan; and all theIsrael Israelites passed over on dry ground until all the peoplenation were passed clean over the Jordan |
| 4:1 |
And it came to pass when all the peoplenation were clean passed over the Jordan that theJehovah Lord spake unto Joshua saying |
| 4:3 |
Andand command ye them saying Take you hence out of the midst of the Jordan out of the place where the priests feet stood firm twelve stones and ye shall carry them over with you and leavelay them down in the lodging place where ye shall lodge this night |
| 4:5 |
Andand Joshua said unto them Pass over before the ark of theJehovah Lord your God into the midst of the Jordan and take you up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel:; |
| 4:6 |
Thatthat this may be a sign among you that when your children ask their fathers in time to come saying What mean ye by these stones |
| 4:7 |
Thenthen ye shall answersay unto them ThatBecause the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LordJehovah; when it passed over 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 |
| 4:8 |
And the children of Israel did so as Joshua commanded and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan as theJehovah Lord spake unto Joshua according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel; and they carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged and laid them down there |
| 4:9 |
And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of the Jordan in the place where the feet of the priests whichthat bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day |
| 4:10 |
For the priests whichthat bare the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan until everything was finished that theJehovah Lord commanded Joshua to speak unto the people according to all that Moses commanded Joshua: and the people hasted and passed over |
| 4:11 |
And it came to pass when all the people were clean passed over that the ark of theJehovah Lord passed over and the priests in the presence of the people |
| 4:12 |
And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half the tribe of Manasseh passed over armed before the children of Israel as Moses spake unto them: |
| 4:13 |
Aboutabout forty thousand preparedready armed for war passed over before theJehovah Lord unto battle to the plains of Jericho |
| 4:14 |
On that day theJehovah Lord magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him as they feared Moses all the days of his life |
| 4:15 |
And theJehovah Lord spake unto Joshua saying |
| 4:16 |
Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony that they come up out of the Jordan |
| 4:17 |
Joshua therefore commanded the priests saying Come ye up out of the Jordan |
| 4:18 |
And it came to pass when the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of theJehovah Lord were come up out of the midst of the Jordan and the soles of the priests feet were lifted up unto the dry landground that the waters of the Jordan returned unto their place and flowedwent over all hisits banks as they did beforeaforetime |
| 4:19 |
And the people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month and encamped in Gilgal inon the east border of Jericho |
| 4:20 |
And those twelve stones which they took out of the Jordan did Joshua pitchset up in Gilgal |
| 4:22 |
Thenthen ye shall let your children know saying Israel came over this Jordan on dry land |
| 4:23 |
For theJehovah Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan from before you until ye were passed over as theJehovah Lord your God did to the Red seaSea which he dried up from before us until we were gonepassed over:; |
| 4:24 |
Thatthat all the peoplepeoples of the earth mightmay know the hand of theJehovah Lord that it is mighty:; that ye mightmay fear theJehovah Lord your God for ever |
| 5:1 |
And it came to pass when all the kings of the Amorites whichthat were onbeyond the side of Jordan westward and all the kings of the Canaanites whichthat were by the sea heard how that theJehovah Lord had dried up the waters of the 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 |
| 5:2 |
At that time theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua Make thee sharp knives of flint and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time |
| 5:3 |
And Joshua made him sharp knives of flint and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of the foreskins |
| 5:4 |
And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: Allall the people that came forth out of Egypt that were males even all the men of war died in the wilderness by the way after they came forth out of Egypt |
| 5:5 |
NowFor all the people that came out were circumcised:; but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of Egypt them they had not circumcised |
| 5:6 |
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness till all the peoplenation thateven werethe men of war whichthat came forth out of Egypt were consumed because they obeyedhearkened not unto the voice of the LordJehovah: unto whom theJehovah Lord sware that he would not shewlet them see the land which theJehovah Lord sware unto their fathers that he would give us a land thatflowing floweth with milk and honey |
| 5:7 |
And their children whom he raised up in their stead them did Joshua circumcisedcircumcise: for they were uncircumcised because they had not circumcised them by the way |
| 5:8 |
And it came to pass when they had done circumcising all the peoplenation that they abode in their places in the camp till they were whole |
| 5:9 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you Wherefore the name of thethat place iswas called Gilgal unto this day |
| 5:10 |
And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal; and they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho |
| 5:11 |
And they did eat of the oldproduce corn of the land on the morrow after the passover unleavened cakes and parched corngrain in the selfsame day |
| 5:12 |
And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the oldproduce corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year |
| 5:14 |
And he said Nay; but as captainprince of the host of theJehovah Lord am I now come And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and did worship and said unto him What saith my Lordlord unto his servant |
| 5:15 |
And the captainprince of theJehovahs Lords host said unto Joshua LoosePut off thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy And Joshua did so |
| 6:2 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua See I have given into thinethy hand Jericho and the king thereof and the mighty men of valourvalor |
| 6:3 |
And ye shall compass the city all yethe men of war andgoing go round about the city once Thus shalt thou do six days |
| 6:4 |
And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams horns before the ark: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times and the priests shall blow with the trumpets |
| 6:5 |
And it shall comebe to pass that when they make a long blast with the rams horn and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat and the people shall ascendgo up every man straight before him |
| 6:6 |
And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said unto them Take up the ark of the covenant and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams horns before the ark of theJehovah Lord |
| 6:7 |
And hethey said unto the people Pass on and compass the city and let himthe thatarmed ismen armed pass on before the ark of the LordJehovah |
| 6:8 |
And it camewas toso passthat when Joshua had spoken unto the people that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams horns before Jehovah passed on before the Lord and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of theJehovah Lord followed them |
| 6:9 |
And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets and the rerewardrearward camewent after the ark the priests goingblowing onthe andtrumpets blowingas withthey thewent trumpets |
| 6:10 |
And Joshua had commanded the people saying Ye shall not shout nor makelet anyyour noisevoice withbe yourheard voice neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout |
| 6:11 |
So he caused the ark of theJehovah Lordto compassedcompass the city going about it once: and they came into the camp and lodged in the camp |
| 6:12 |
And Joshua rose early in the morning and the priests took up the ark of theJehovah Lord |
| 6:13 |
And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams horns before the ark of theJehovah Lord went on continually and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; butand the rerewardrearward came after the ark of theJehovah Lord the priests goingblowing onthe andtrumpets blowingas withthey thewent trumpets |
| 6:15 |
And it came to pass on the seventh day that they rose early aboutat the dawning of the day and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times |
| 6:16 |
And it came to pass at the seventh time when the priests blew with the trumpets Joshua said unto the people Shout; for theJehovah Lord hath given you the city |
| 6:17 |
And the city shall be accurseddevoted even it and all that areis therein to the LordJehovah: only Rahab the harlot shall live she and all that are with her in the house because she hid the messengers that we sent |
| 6:18 |
AndBut yeas infor anyyou wiseonly keep yourselves from the accurseddevoted thing lest when ye makehave yourselvesdevoted accursedit when ye take of the accurseddevoted thing; andso would ye make the camp of Israel aaccursed curse and trouble it |
| 6:19 |
But all the silver and gold and vessels of brass and iron are consecratedholy unto the LordJehovah: they shall come into the treasury of theJehovah Lord |
| 6:20 |
So the people shouted whenand the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass when the people heard the sound of the trumpet andthat the people shouted with a great shout thatand the wall fell down flat so that the people went up into the city every man straight before him and they took the city |
| 6:21 |
And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city both man and woman both young and old and ox and sheep and ass with the edge of the sword |
| 6:22 |
ButAnd Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the countryland Go into the harlots house and bring out thence the woman and all that she hath as ye sware unto her |
| 6:23 |
And the young men thatthe were spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brethren and all that she had; andall her kindred also they brought out; alland herthey kindredset and left them without the camp of Israel |
| 6:24 |
And they burnt the city with fire and all that was therein:; only the silver and the gold and the vessels of brass and of iron they put into the treasury of the house of theJehovah Lord |
| 6:25 |
AndBut Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive and her fathers household and all that she had did Joshua save alive; and she dwellethdwelt in the midst of Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers whichwhom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho |
| 6:26 |
And Joshua adjuredcharged them with an oath at that time saying Cursed be the man before theJehovah Lord that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: hewith the loss of his first born shall he lay the foundation thereof inand hiswith firstbornthe andloss inof his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it |
| 6:27 |
So theJehovah Lord was with Joshua; and his fame was noisedin throughout all the countryland |
| 7:1 |
But the children of Israel committed a trespass in the accurseddevoted thing:; for Achan the son of Carmi the son of Zabdi the son of Zerah of the tribe of Judah took of the accurseddevoted thing: and the anger of theJehovah Lord was kindled against the children of Israel |
| 7:2 |
And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai which is beside BethavenBeth aven on the east side of BethelBeth el and spake unto them saying Go up and viewspy out the countryland And the men went up and viewedspied out Ai |
| 7:3 |
And they returned to Joshua and said unto him Let not all the people go up; but let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Ai; and make not all the people to labourtoil thither; for they are but few |
| 7:5 |
And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty and six men:; forand they chased them from before the gate even unto Shebarim and smote them inat the going downdescent: whereforeand the hearts of the people melted and became as water |
| 7:6 |
And Joshua rent his clothes and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of theJehovah Lord until the eventideevening he and the elders of Israel; and they put dust upon their heads |
| 7:7 |
And Joshua said Alas O Lord GodJehovah wherefore hast thou at all brought this people over the Jordan to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites to destroycause us to perish would tothat God we had been content and dwelt onbeyond the otherJordan side Jordan |
| 7:8 |
OOh Lord what shall I say whenafter that Israel turnethhath turned their backs before their enemies |
| 7:9 |
For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shallwill hear of it and shallwill environcompass us round and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do untofor thy great name |
| 7:10 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua Get thee up; wherefore liestart thou thus fallen upon thy face |
| 7:11 |
Israel hath sinned; andyea they have alsoeven transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: foryea they have even taken of the accurseddevoted thing and have also stolen and dissembled also; and they have even put it even among their own stuff |
| 7:12 |
Therefore the children of Israel couldcannot not stand before their enemies; butthey turnedturn their backs before their enemies because they wereare become accursed: neitherI will Inot be with you any more except ye destroy the accurseddevoted thing from among you |
| 7:13 |
Up sanctify the people and say Sanctify yourselves against to morrow: for thus saith Jehovah the Lord God of Israel There is ana accurseddevoted thing in the midst of thee O Israel:; thou canst not stand before thine enemies until ye take away the accurseddevoted thing from among you |
| 7:14 |
In the morning therefore ye shall be brought accordingnear toby your tribes: and it shall be that the tribe which theJehovah Lord taketh shall come accordingnear toby the families thereof; and the family which theJehovah Lord shall take shall come near by households; and the household which theJehovah Lord shall take shall come near man by man |
| 7:15 |
And it shall be that he that is taken with the accurseddevoted thing shall be burnt with fire he and all that he hath:; because he hath transgressed the covenant of theJehovah Lord and because he hath wrought folly in Israel |
| 7:16 |
So Joshua rose up early in the morning and brought Israel near by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken: |
| 7:17 |
Andand he brought near the family of Judah; and he took the family of the ZarhitesZerahites: and he brought near the family of the ZarhitesZerahites man by man; and Zabdi was taken: |
| 7:18 |
Andand he brought near his household man by man; and Achan the son of Carmi the son of Zabdi the son of Zerah of the tribe of Judah was taken |
| 7:19 |
And Joshua said unto Achan My son give I pray thee glory to Jehovah the Lord God of Israel and make confession unto him; and tell me now what thou hast done; hide it not from me |
| 7:20 |
And Achan answered Joshua and said IndeedOf a truth I have sinned against Jehovah the Lord God of Israel and thus and thus have I done: |
| 7:21 |
Whenwhen I saw among the spoilsspoil a goodly Babylonish garmentmantle and two hundred shekels of silver and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight then 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 |
| 7:23 |
And they took them outfrom of the midst of the tent and brought them unto Joshua and unto all the children of Israel; and they laid them outdown before theJehovah Lord |
| 7:24 |
And Joshua and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zerah and the silver and the garmentmantle and the wedge 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 unto the valley of Achor |
| 7:25 |
And Joshua said Why hast thou troubled us theJehovah Lord shall trouble thee this day And all Israel stoned him with stones; and they burned them with fire afterand they had stoned them with stones |
| 7:26 |
And they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day; Soand theJehovah Lord turned from the fierceness of his anger Wherefore the name of that place was called The valley of Achor unto this day |
| 8:1 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua Fear not neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee 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:; |
| 8:2 |
Andand thou shalt do to Ai and her king as thou didst unto Jericho and her king: only the spoil thereof and the cattle thereof shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves: layset thee an ambush for the city behind it |
| 8:3 |
So Joshua arose and all the people of war to go up againstto Ai: and Joshua chose out thirty thousand men the mighty men of valourvalor and sent them awayforth by night |
| 8:4 |
And he commanded them saying Behold ye shall lie in waitambush against the city even behind the city:; go not very far from the city but be ye all ready: |
| 8:5 |
Andand I and all the people that are with me will approach unto the city: andAnd it shall come to pass when they come out against us as at the first that we will flee before them; |
| 8:6 |
Forand they will come out after us till we have drawn them away from the city; for they will say They flee before us as at the first: thereforeso we will flee before them; |
| 8:7 |
Thenand ye shall rise up from the ambush and seizetake uponpossession of the city: for theJehovah Lord your God will deliver it into your hand |
| 8:8 |
And it shall be when ye have takenseized upon the city that ye shall set the city on fire:; according to the commandmentword of theJehovah Lord shall ye do: Seesee I have commanded you |
| 8:9 |
And Joshua therefore sent them forth:; and they went to liethe inambushment ambush and abode between BethelBeth el and Ai on the west side of Ai: but Joshua lodged that night among the people |
| 8:10 |
And Joshua rosearose up early in the morning and numberedmustered the people and went up he and the elders of Israel before the people to Ai |
| 8:11 |
And all the people even the peoplemen of war that were with him went up and drew nigh and came before the city and pitchedencamped on the north side of Ai: now there was a valley between themhim and Ai |
| 8:12 |
And he took about five thousand men and set them to lie in ambush between BethelBeth el and Ai on the west side of the city |
| 8:13 |
AndSo when they had set the people even all the host that was on the north of the city and their liers in wait that were on the west of the city; and Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley |
| 8:14 |
And it came to pass when the king of Ai saw it that they hasted and rose up early and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle he and all his people at athe time appointed before the plainArabah; but he wistknew not that there werewas liersan in ambush against him behind the city |
| 8:16 |
And all the people that were in Aithe city were called together to pursue after them: and they pursued after Joshua and were drawn away from the city |
| 8:17 |
And there was not a man left in Ai or BethelBeth el that went not out after Israel: and they left the city open and pursued after Israel |
| 8:18 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua Stretch out the spearjavelin that is in thy hand toward Ai; for I will give it into thinethy hand And Joshua stretched out the spearjavelin that hewas had in his hand toward the city |
| 8:19 |
And the ambush arose quickly out of their place and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand: and they entered into the city and took it; and they hasted and set the city on fire |
| 8:22 |
And the otherothers issuedcame forth 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 so that they let none of them remain or escape |
| 8:24 |
And it came to pass when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field in the wilderness wherein they chasedpursued them and when they were all fallen onby the edge of the sword until they were consumed that all theIsrael Israelites returned unto Ai and smote it with the edge of the sword |
| 8:25 |
And so it was that all that fell that day both of men and women were twelve thousand even all the men of Ai |
| 8:26 |
For Joshua drew not back his hand back wherewith he stretched out the spearjavelin until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai |
| 8:27 |
Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took for a prey unto themselves according unto the word of theJehovah Lord which he commanded Joshua |
| 8:28 |
AndSo Joshua burnt Ai and made it ana heap for ever even a desolation unto this day |
| 8:29 |
And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until the eventide: and asat soonthe asgoing down of the sun was down Joshua commanded thatand they shouldtook take his carcasebody down from the tree and cast it at the enteringentrance of the gate of the city and raiseraised thereon a great heap of stones that remaineth unto this day |
| 8:30 |
Then Joshua built an altar unto Jehovah the Lord God of Israel in mount Ebal |
| 8:31 |
Asas Moses the servant of theJehovah Lord commanded the children of Israel as it is written in the book of the law of Moses an altar of wholeunhewn stones overupon which no man hathhad liftlifted up any iron: and they offered thereon burnt offerings unto theJehovah Lord and sacrificed peace offerings |
| 8:33 |
And all Israel and their elders and officers and their judges stood on this side of the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites whichthat bare the ark of the covenant of theJehovah Lord as well the strangersojourner as hethe thathome was born among them; half of them overin againstfront of mount Gerizim and half of them overin againstfront of mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of theJehovah Lord had commanded beforeat the first that they should bless the people of Israel |
| 8:34 |
And afterward he read all the words of the law the blessingsblessing and cursingsthe curse according to all that is written in the book of the law |
| 8:35 |
There was not a word of all that Moses commanded which Joshua read not before all the congregationassembly of Israel withand the women and the little ones and the strangerssojourners that were conversant among them |
| 9:1 |
And it came to pass when all the kings whichthat were onbeyond thisthe side Jordan in the hillshill country and in the valleyslowland and inon all the coastsshore of the great sea overin againstfront of Lebanon the Hittite and the Amorite the Canaanite the Perizzite the Hivite and the Jebusite heard thereof; |
| 9:2 |
Thatthat they gathered themselves together to fight with Joshua and with Israel with one accord |
| 9:3 |
AndBut when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and to Ai |
| 9:4 |
Theythey also did work wilily and went and made as if they had been ambassadors and took old sacks upon their asses and wine bottlesskins old and rent and bound up; |
| 9:5 |
Andand old shoes and cloutedpatched shoes upon their feet and old garments upon them; and all the bread of their provision was dry and was become mouldy |
| 9:6 |
And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal and said unto him and to the men of Israel We beare come from a far country: now therefore make ye a leaguecovenant with us |
| 9:7 |
And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites Peradventure ye dwell among us; and how shall we make a leaguecovenant with you |
| 9:9 |
And they said unto him From a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of theJehovah Lord thy God: for we have heard the fame of him and all that he did in Egypt |
| 9:10 |
Andand all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites that were beyond the Jordan to Sihon king of Heshbon and to Og king of Bashan whichwho was at Ashtaroth |
| 9:11 |
WhereforeAnd our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us saying Take victualsprovision within youyour hand for the journey and go to meet them and say unto them We are your servants: thereforeand now make ye a leaguecovenant with us |
| 9:12 |
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 become mouldy: |
| 9:13 |
Andand these bottleswine ofskins wine which we filled were new; and behold they beare rent: and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey |
| 9:14 |
And the men took of their victualsprovision and asked not counsel at the mouth of theJehovah Lord |
| 9:15 |
And Joshua made peace with them and made a leaguecovenant with them to let them live: and the princes of the congregation sware unto them |
| 9:16 |
And it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a leaguecovenant with them that they heard that they were their neighboursneighbors and that they dwelt among them |
| 9:17 |
And the children of Israel journeyed and came unto their cities on the third day Now their cities were Gibeon and Chephirah and Beeroth and KirjathjearimKiriath jearim |
| 9:18 |
And the children of Israel smote them not because the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by Jehovah the Lord God of Israel And all the congregation murmured against the princes |
| 9:19 |
But all the princes said unto all the congregation We have sworn unto them by Jehovah the Lord God of Israel: now therefore we may not touch them |
| 9:20 |
This we will do to them; weand will even let them live; lest wrath be upon us because of the oath which we sware unto them |
| 9:21 |
And the princes said unto them Let them live;: butso letthey thembecame be hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation; as the princes had promisedspoken unto them |
| 9:23 |
Now therefore ye are cursed and there shall nonenever offail youto be freedof fromyou being bondmen andboth hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God |
| 9:24 |
And they answered Joshua and said Because it was certainly told thy servants how that theJehovah Lord thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; therefore we were sore afraid offor our lives because of you and have done this thing |
| 9:25 |
And now behold we are in thinethy hand: as it seemeth good and right unto thee to do unto us do |
| 9:27 |
And Joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation and for the altar of theJehovah Lord even unto this day in the place which he should choose |
| 10:1 |
Now it came to pass when AdonizedecAdoni 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; |
| 10:2 |
Thatthat 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 |
| 10:3 |
Wherefore AdonizedecAdoni 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 |
| 10:4 |
Come up unto me and help me thatand welet mayus smite Gibeon:; for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel |
| 10:5 |
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 beforeagainst Gibeon and made war against it |
| 10:6 |
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 mountainshill country are gathered together against us |
| 10:7 |
So Joshua ascendedwent up from Gilgal he and all the people of war with him and all the mighty men of valourvalor |
| 10:8 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thinethy handhands; there shall not a man of them stand before thee |
| 10:9 |
Joshua therefore came untoupon them suddenly; andfor he went up from Gilgal all the night |
| 10:10 |
And theJehovah Lord discomfited them before Israel and he slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and chased them alongby the way thatof goeththe upascent toof BethhoronBeth horon and smote them to Azekah and unto Makkedah |
| 10:11 |
And it came to pass as they fled from before Israel andwhile they were inat the goingdescent downof toBeth Bethhoronhoron that theJehovah Lord cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah and they died: they were more whichwho died with the hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword |
| 10:12 |
Then spake Joshua to theJehovah Lord in the day when theJehovah Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel Sun stand thou still upon Gibeon; andAnd thou Moon in the valley of AjalonAijalon |
| 10:13 |
And the sun stood still and the moon stayed untilUntil the peoplenation had avenged themselves uponof their enemies Is not this written in the book of JasherJashar SoAnd the sun stoodstayed still in the midst of heaven and hasted not to go down about a whole day |
| 10:14 |
And there was no day like that before it or after it that theJehovah Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for theJehovah Lord fought for Israel |
| 10:16 |
ButAnd these five kings fled and hid themselves in athe cave at Makkedah |
| 10:17 |
And it was told Joshua saying The five kings are found hidhidden in athe cave at Makkedah |
| 10:18 |
And Joshua said Roll great stones uponunto the mouth of the cave and set men by it for to keep them: |
| 10:19 |
Andbut stay ye not butye; pursue after your enemies and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for theJehovah Lord your God hath delivered them into your hand |
| 10:20 |
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 thatand the restremnant which remained of them had entered into fencedthe fortified cities |
| 10:21 |
Andthat all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel |
| 10:22 |
Then said Joshua Open the mouth of the cave and bring outforth those five kings unto me out of the cave |
| 10:23 |
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 |
| 10:24 |
And it came to pass when they brought outforth those kings unto Joshua that Joshua called for all the men of Israel and said unto the captainschiefs of the men of war whichthat 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 |
| 10:25 |
And Joshua said unto them Fear not nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage: for thus shall theJehovah Lord do to all your enemies against whom ye fight |
| 10:26 |
And afterward Joshua smote them and slewput them to death and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening |
| 10:27 |
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 beenhidden hidthemselves and laid great stones inon the caves mouth whichof remainthe untilcave unto this very day |
| 10:28 |
And that day Joshua took Makkedah on that day 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 letleft none remain:remaining; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he didhad done unto the king of Jericho |
| 10:29 |
ThenAnd Joshua passed from Makkedah and all Israel with him unto Libnah and fought against Libnah: |
| 10:30 |
Andand theJehovah Lord delivered 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 letleft none remainremaining in it; butand he did unto the king thereof as he didhad done unto the king of Jericho |
| 10:32 |
Andand theJehovah Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel; whichand he 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 |
| 10:34 |
And from Lachish Joshua passed untofrom EglonLachish and all Israel with him unto Eglon; and they encamped against it and fought against it:; |
| 10:35 |
Andand 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 that day according to all that he had done to Lachish |
| 10:37 |
Andand 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 left none remaining according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it utterly and all the souls that were therein |
| 10:38 |
And Joshua returned and all Israel with him to Debir; and fought against it: |
| 10:39 |
Andand 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 left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron so he did to Debir and to the king thereof; as he had done also to Libnah and to herthe king thereof |
| 10:40 |
So Joshua smote all the countryland of the hillshill country and of the southSouth and of the valelowland and of the springsslopes and all their kings: he left none remaining but he utterly destroyed all that breathed as Jehovah the Lord God of Israel commanded |
| 10:41 |
And Joshua smote them from KadeshbarneaKadesh barnea even unto Gaza and all the country of Goshen even unto Gibeon |
| 10:42 |
And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time because Jehovah the Lord God of Israel fought for Israel |
| 11:1 |
And it came to pass when Jabin king of Hazor had heard thosethereof things that he sent to Jobab king of Madon and to the king of Shimron and to the king of Achshaph |
| 11:2 |
Andand to the kings that were on the north ofin the mountainshill country and ofin the plainsArabah south of Chinneroth and in the valleylowland and in the bordersheights of Dor on the west |
| 11:3 |
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 mountainshill country and to the Hivite under Hermon in the land of MizpehMizpah |
| 11:5 |
And when all these kings were met together; and they came and pitchedencamped together at the waters of Merom to fight againstwith Israel |
| 11:6 |
And theJehovah Lord said unto Joshua Be not afraid because of them:; for to morrow aboutat this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt houghhock their horses and burn their chariots with fire |
| 11:7 |
So Joshua came and all the people of war with him against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them |
| 11:8 |
And theJehovah Lord delivered them into the hand of Israel whoand they smote them and chased them unto great ZidonSidon and unto MisrephothmaimMisrephoth maim and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them until they left them none remaining |
| 11:9 |
And Joshua did unto them as theJehovah Lord bade him: he houghedhocked their horses and burnt their chariots with fire |
| 11:10 |
And Joshua turned back 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 |
| 11:11 |
And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword utterly destroying them:; there was notnone any left tothat breathebreathed: and he burnt Hazor with fire |
| 11:12 |
And all the cities of those kings and all the kings of them did Joshua take and he smote them with the edge of the sword and he utterly destroyed them; as Moses the servant of theJehovah Lordcommanded commanded |
| 11:13 |
But as for the cities that stood stillon in their strengthmounds Israel burned none of them save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn |
| 11:14 |
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 tothat breathebreathed |
| 11:15 |
As theJehovah Lord commanded Moses his servant so did Moses command Joshua: and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that theJehovah Lord commanded Moses |
| 11:16 |
So Joshua took all that land the hillshill country and all the southSouth country and all the land of Goshen and the valleylowland and the plainArabah and the mountainhill country of Israel and the valleylowland of the same; |
| 11:17 |
Even from the mount Halak that goeth up to Seir even unto BaalgadBaal gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took and smote them and slewput them to death |
| 11:19 |
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took all in battle |
| 11:20 |
For it was of theJehovah Lord to harden their hearts thatto they should come against Israel in battle that he might utterly destroy them utterly and that they might have no favourfavor but that he might destroy them as theJehovah Lord commanded Moses |
| 11:21 |
And Joshua came at that time came Joshua and cut off the AnakimsAnakim from the mountainshill country from Hebron from Debir from Anab and from all the mountainshill country of Judah and from all the mountainshill country of Israel: Joshua utterly destroyed them utterly with their cities |
| 11:22 |
There was none of the AnakimsAnakim left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza in Gath and in Ashdod theredid remainedsome remain |

And Moses sware on that day saying Surely the land whereon thy feetfoot havehath trodden shall be thinean inheritance to thee and to thy childrenschildren for ever because thou hast wholly followed theJehovah Lord my God |

And now behold theJehovah Lord hath kept me alive as he saidspake these forty and five years evenfrom since the Lordtime that Jehovah spake this word unto Moses while the children of Israel wanderedwalked in the wilderness: and now lo I am this day fourscore and five years old |

| 22:16 |
Thus saith the whole congregation of theJehovah Lord What trespass is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel to turn away this day from following theJehovah Lord in that ye have builded you an altar thatto ye might rebel this day against theJehovah Lord |
| 22:17 |
Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us from which we arehave not cleansed untilourselves unto this day although there wascame a plague inupon the congregation of theJehovah Lord |
| 22:18 |
But that ye must turn away this day from following theJehovah Lord and it will be seeing ye rebel to day against theJehovah Lord that to morrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel |
| 22:19 |
NotwithstandingHowbeit if the land of your possession be unclean then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of theJehovah Lord wherein theJehovahs Lords tabernacle dwelleth and take possession among us: but rebel not against theJehovah Lord nor rebel against us in building you an altar besidebesides the altar of theJehovah Lord our God |

The LordMighty One God ofJehovah gods the LordMighty One God ofJehovah gods he knoweth; and Israel he shall know;: if it be in rebellion or if in transgressiontrespass against theJehovah Lord save thou us not this day |
| 22:23 |
Thatthat we have built us an altar to turn away from following theJehovah; Lord or if to offer thereon burnt offering or meatmeal offering or if to offer sacrifices of peace offerings thereon let theJehovah Lord himself require it; |
| 22:24 |
Andand if we have not rather out of carefulness done itthis forand fear of thispurpose thing saying In time to come your children might speak unto our children saying What have ye to do with Jehovah the Lord God of Israel |
| 22:25 |
Forfor theJehovah Lord hath made the Jordan a border between us and you ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no partportion in the LordJehovah: so shallmight your children make our children cease from fearing theJehovah Lord |
| 22:27 |
Butbut that it mayshall be a witness between us and you and between our generations after us that we mightmay do the service of theJehovah Lord before him with our burnt offerings and with our sacrifices and with our peace offerings; that your children may not say to our children in time to come Ye have no partportion in theJehovah Lord |
| 22:28 |
Therefore said we thatIt it shall be when they should so say to us or to our generations in time to come that we mayshall say again Behold the pattern of the altar of theJehovah Lord which our fathers made not for burnt offeringsoffering nor for sacrificessacrifice; but it is a witness between us and you |
| 22:29 |
GodFar forbidbe it from us that we should rebel against theJehovah Lord and turn away this day from following theJehovah Lord to build an altar for burnt offeringsoffering for meatmeal offeringsoffering or for sacrificessacrifice besidebesides the altar of theJehovah Lord our God that is before his tabernacle |
| 22:30 |
And when Phinehas the priest and the princes of the congregation andeven the heads of the thousands of Israel whichthat were with him heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spake it pleased them well |
| 22:31 |
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 perceiveknow that Jehovah is in the Lordmidst isof among us because ye have not committed this trespass against the LordJehovah: now have ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of theJehovah Lord |
| 22:33 |
And the thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God and didspake notno intendmore toof gogoing up against them into battlewar to destroy the land wherein the children of Reuben and the children of Gad dwelt |
| 22:34 |
And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar Ed: forFor said they it shallis be a witness between us that theJehovah Lord is God |
| 23:1 |
And it came to pass aafter longmany timedays afterwhen thatJehovah the Lord had given rest unto Israel from all their enemies round about thatand Joshua waxedwas old and well stricken in ageyears; |
| 23:2 |
Andthat Joshua called for all Israel and for their elders and for their heads and for their judges and for their officers and said unto them I am old and well stricken in ageyears: |
| 23:3 |
Andand ye have seen all that theJehovah Lord your God hath done unto all these nations because of you; for theJehovah Lord your God he it is he that hath fought for you |
| 23:4 |
Behold I have dividedallotted unto you by lot these nations that remain to be an inheritance for your tribes from the Jordan with all the nations that I have cut off even unto the great sea westwardtoward the going down of the sun |
| 23:5 |
And theJehovah Lord your God he shallwill expelthrust them out from before you and drive them from out of your sight; and ye shall possess their land as theJehovah Lord your God hathspake promised unto you |
| 23:6 |
BeTherefore be ye therefore very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses that ye turn not aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left; |
| 23:7 |
Thatthat ye come not among these nations these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods nor cause to swear by them neither serve them nor bow down yourselves unto them:; |
| 23:8 |
Butbut cleave unto theJehovah Lord your God as ye have done unto this day |
| 23:9 |
For theJehovah Lord hath driven out from before you great nations and strong: but as for you no man hath beenstood able to stand before you unto this day |
| 23:10 |
One man of you shall chase a thousand:; for theJehovah Lord your God he it is that fighteth for you as he hathspake promisedunto you |
| 23:11 |
Take good heed therefore unto yourselves that ye love theJehovah Lord your God |
| 23:12 |
Else if ye do inat anyall wise go back and cleave unto the remnant of these nations even these that remain among you and shall make marriages with them and go in unto them and they to you:; |
| 23:13 |
Knowknow for a certainty that theJehovah Lord your God will no more drive out any of these nations from beforeout youof your sight; but they shall be snaresa snare and trapsa trap unto you and scourgesa scourge in your sides and thorns in your eyes until ye perish from off this good land which theJehovah Lord your God hath given you |
| 23:14 |
And behold this day I am going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which theJehovah Lord your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you and not one thing hath failed thereof |
| 23:15 |
ThereforeAnd it shall come to pass that as all the good things are come upon you of which theJehovah Lord your God promisedspake unto you; so shallwill theJehovah Lord bring upon you all the evil things until he have destroyed you from off this good land which theJehovah Lord your God hath given you |
| 23:16 |
When ye havetransgress transgressed the covenant of theJehovah Lord your God which he commanded you and havego gone and servedserve other gods and bowedbow down yourselves to them; then shallwill the anger of theJehovah Lord be kindled against you and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given unto you |
| 24:2 |
And Joshua said unto all the people Thus saith Jehovah the Lord God of Israel Your fathers dwelt onof theold othertime sidebeyond of the floodRiver in old time even Terah the father of Abraham and the father of NachorNahor: and they served other gods |
| 24:3 |
And I took your father Abraham from thebeyond other side of the floodRiver and led him throughout all the land of Canaan and multiplied his seed and gave him Isaac |
| 24:4 |
And I gave unto Isaac Jacob and Esau: and I gave unto Esau mount Seir to possess it; butand Jacob and his children went down into Egypt |
| 24:5 |
And I sent Moses also and Aaron and I plagued Egypt according to that which I did amongin themthe midst thereof: and afterward I brought you out |
| 24:6 |
And I brought your fathers out of Egypt: and ye came unto the sea; and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and with horsemen unto the Red seaSea |
| 24:7 |
And when they cried out unto theJehovah Lord he put darkness between you and the Egyptians and brought the sea upon them and covered them; and your eyes havesaw seen what I havedid done in Egypt: and ye dwelt in the wilderness amany longdays season |
| 24:8 |
And I brought you into the land of the Amorites whichthat dwelt onbeyond the other side Jordan;: and they fought with you:; and I gave them into your hand thatand ye mightpossessed possess their land; and I destroyed them from before you |
| 24:9 |
Then Balak the son of Zippor king of Moab arose and warredfought against Israel: and he sent and called Balaam the son of Beor to curse you:; |
| 24:10 |
Butbut I would not hearken unto Balaam; therefore he blessed you still: so I delivered you out of his hand |
| 24:11 |
And youye went over the Jordan and came unto Jericho: and the men of Jericho fought against you the AmoritesAmorite and the PerizzitesPerizzite and the CanaanitesCanaanite and the HittitesHittite and the GirgashitesGirgashite the HivitesHivite and the JebusitesJebusite; and I delivered them into your hand |
| 24:12 |
And I sent the hornet before you which dravedrove them out from before you even the two kings of the Amorites; but not with thy sword nor with thy bow |
| 24:13 |
And I havegave given you a land forwhereon whichthou yehadst did not labourlabored and cities which ye built not and ye dwell in themtherein; of the vineyards and oliveyards which ye planted not do ye eat |
| 24:14 |
Now therefore fear theJehovah Lord and serve him in sincerity and in truth:; and put away the gods which your fathers served onbeyond the otherRiver side of the flood and in Egypt; and serve ye theJehovah Lord |
| 24:15 |
And if it seem evil unto you to serve theJehovah Lord choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were onbeyond the otherRiver side of the flood or the gods of the Amorites in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house we will serve the LordJehovah |
| 24:16 |
And the people answered and said GodFar forbidbe it from us that we should forsake theJehovah Lord to serve other gods; |
| 24:17 |
Forfor theJehovah Lord our God he it is that brought us up and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt from the house of bondage and whichthat did those great signs in our sight and preserved us in all the way wherein we went and among all the peoplepeoples through the midst of whom we passed:; |
| 24:18 |
Andand theJehovah Lorddrove drave out from before us all the peoplepeoples even the Amorites whichthat dwelt in the land: therefore will we also will serve the LordJehovah; for he is our God |
| 24:19 |
And Joshua said unto the people Ye cannot serve theJehovah; Lord: for he is ana holy God; he is a jealous God; he will not forgive your transgressionstransgression nor your sins |
| 24:20 |
If ye forsake theJehovah Lord and serve strangeforeign gods then he will turn and do you hurtevil and consume you after that he hath done you good |
| 24:21 |
And the people said unto Joshua Nay; but we will serve theJehovah Lord |
| 24:22 |
And Joshua said unto the people Ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye have chosen you theJehovah Lord to serve him And they said We are witnesses |
| 24:23 |
Now therefore put away said he the strangeforeign gods which are among you and incline your heart unto Jehovah the Lord God of Israel |
| 24:24 |
And the people said unto Joshua TheJehovah Lord our God will we serve and unto his voice will we obeyhearken |
| 24:26 |
And Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone and set it up there under anthe oak that was by the sanctuary of theJehovah Lord |
| 24:27 |
And Joshua said unto all the people Behold this stone shall be a witness untoagainst us; for it hath heard all the words of theJehovah Lord which he spake unto us: it shall be therefore a witness untoagainst you lest ye deny your God |
| 24:28 |
So Joshua letsent the people departaway every man unto his inheritance |
| 24:29 |
And it came to pass after these things that Joshua the son of Nun the servant of theJehovah Lord died being ana hundred and ten years old |
| 24:30 |
And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in TimnathserahTimnath serah which is in mountthe hill country of Ephraim on the north side of the hillmountain of Gaash |
| 24:31 |
And Israel served theJehovah Lord all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders that overlivedoutlived Joshua and which had known all the workswork of theJehovah Lord that he had donewrought for Israel |
| 24:32 |
And the bones of Joseph which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt buried they in Shechem in athe parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for ana hundred pieces of silvermoney: and itthey became the inheritance of the children of Joseph |
