Josué 10 - Bíblia Online

Gibeão é sitiada por cinco reis
E sucedeu que, ouvindo Adoni-Zedeque, rei de Jerusalém, que Josué tomara a Ai, e a tinha destruído totalmente, e fizera a Ai e ao seu rei como tinha feito a Jericó e ao seu rei, e que os moradores de Gibeão fizeram paz com os israelitas, e estavam no meio deles, 2 temeu muito, porque Gibeão era uma cidade grande como uma das cidades reais e ainda maior do que Ai, e todos os seus homens, valentes. 3 Pelo que Adoni-Zedeque, rei de Jerusalém, enviou mensageiros a Hoão, rei de Hebrom, e a Pirã, rei de Jarmute, e a Jafia, rei de Laquis, e a Debir, rei de Eglom, dizendo: 4 Subi a mim e ajudai-me; e firamos a Gibeão, porquanto fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel. 5 Então, se ajuntaram e subiram cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebrom, o rei de Jarmute, o rei de Laquis, o rei de Eglom, eles e todos os seus exércitos; e sitiaram a Gibeão e pelejaram contra ela. 
Josué socorre a Gibeão
Enviaram, pois, os homens de Gibeão a Josué ao arraial de Gilgal, dizendo: Não retires as tuas mãos de teus servos; sobe apressadamente a nós, e livra-nos, e ajuda-nos, porquanto todos os reis dos amorreus que habitam na montanha se ajuntaram contra nós. 7 Então, subiu Josué de Gilgal, ele e toda a gente de guerra com ele e todos os valentes e valorosos. 8 E o Senhor disse a Josué: Não os temas, porque os tenho dado na tua mão; nenhum deles parará diante de ti. 9 E Josué lhes sobreveio de repente, porque toda a noite veio subindo desde Gilgal. 10 E o Senhor os conturbou diante de Israel, e os feriu de grande ferida em Gibeão, e seguiu-os pelo caminho que sobe a Bete-Horom, e os feriu até Azeca e Maquedá. 11 E sucedeu que, fugindo eles diante de Israel à descida de Bete-Horom, o Senhor lançou sobre eles, do céu, grandes pedras até Azeca, e morreram; e foram muitos mais os que morreram das pedras da saraiva do que os que os filhos de Israel mataram à espada. 
O sol e a lua são detidos
Então, Josué falou ao Senhor, no dia em que o Senhor deu os amorreus na mão dos filhos de Israel, e disse aos olhos dos israelitas: Sol, detém-te em Gibeão, e tu lua, no vale de Aijalom. 13 E o sol se deteve, e a lua parou, até que o povo se vingou de seus inimigos. Isso não está escrito no Livro do Reto? O sol, pois, se deteve no meio do céu e não se apressou a pôr-se, quase um dia inteiro. 
E não houve dia semelhante a este, nem antes nem depois dele, ouvindo o Senhor, assim, a voz de um homem; porque o Senhor pelejava por Israel. 15 E tornou-se Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, ao arraial, a Gilgal. 
Josué prende os cinco reis e mata-os
Aqueles cinco reis, porém, fugiram e se esconderam numa cova em Maquedá. 17 E foi anunciado a Josué, dizendo: Acharam-se os cinco reis escondidos numa cova em Maquedá. 18 Disse, pois, Josué: Arrojai grandes pedras à boca da cova e ponde sobre ela homens que os guardem; 19 porém vós não vos detenhais; segui os vossos inimigos e feri os que ficaram atrás; não os deixeis entrar nas suas cidades, porque o Senhor, vosso Deus, já vo-los deu na vossa mão. 20 E sucedeu que, acabando Josué e os filhos de Israel de os ferir a grande ferida, até consumi-los, e tendo os que ficaram deles se retirado às cidades fortes, 21 todo o povo se tornou em paz a Josué, ao arraial em Maquedá; não havendo ninguém que movesse a sua língua contra os filhos de Israel. 
Depois, disse Josué: Abri a boca da cova e trazei-me aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova. 23 Fizeram, pois, assim e trouxeram-lhe aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova: o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebrom, o rei de Jarmute, o rei de Laquis e o rei de Eglom. 24 E sucedeu que, sendo trazidos aqueles reis a Josué, este chamou todos os homens de Israel e disse aos capitães da gente de guerra, que com eles foram: Chegai e ponde os vossos pés sobre os pescoços destes reis. E chegaram e puseram os seus pés sobre os seus pescoços. 25 Então, Josué lhes disse: Não temais, nem vos espanteis; esforçai-vos e animai-vos, porque assim fará o Senhor a todos os vossos inimigos, contra os quais pelejardes. 26 E, depois disto, Josué os feriu, e os matou, e os pendurou em cinco madeiros; e ficaram enforcados nos madeiros até à tarde. 27 E sucedeu que, ao tempo do pôr do sol, deu Josué ordem que os tirassem dos madeiros; e lançaram-nos na cova onde se esconderam e puseram grandes pedras à boca da cova, que ainda ali estão até ao mesmo dia de hoje. 
Josué vence mais sete reis
E, naquele mesmo dia, tomou Josué a Maquedá, feriu-a a fio de espada e destruiu o seu rei, a eles e a toda alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto; e fez ao rei de Maquedá como fizera ao rei de Jericó. 
Então, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Maquedá a Libna e pelejou contra Libna. 30 E também o Senhor a deu na mão de Israel, a ela e a seu rei, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela e a toda alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto; e fez ao seu rei como fizera ao rei de Jericó. 
Então, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Libna a Laquis, e a sitiou, e pelejou contra ela. 32 E o Senhor deu a Laquis na mão de Israel, e tomou-a no dia seguinte, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela e a toda alma que nela havia, conforme tudo o que fizera a Libna. 
Então, Horão, rei de Gezer, subiu a ajudar a Laquis; porém Josué o feriu, a ele e ao seu povo, até que nenhum lhe deixou de resto. 
E Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Laquis a Eglom, e a sitiaram e pelejaram contra ela; 35 e, no mesmo dia, a tomaram e a feriram a fio de espada; e a toda alma que nela havia destruiu totalmente no mesmo dia, conforme tudo o que fizeram a Laquis. 36 Depois, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, subiu de Eglom a Hebrom, e pelejaram contra ela; 37 e a tomaram e a feriram a fio de espada, assim ao seu rei como a todas as suas cidades, e a toda alma que nelas havia; a ninguém deixou com vida, conforme tudo o que fizeram a Eglom; e Josué a destruiu totalmente, a ela e a toda alma que nela havia. 
Então, Josué e todo o Israel com ele, tornou a Debir e pelejou contra ela; 39 e tomou-a com o seu rei e todas as suas cidades e as feriu a fio de espada; e a toda alma que nelas havia destruiu totalmente, nada deixou de resto; como fizera a Hebrom, a Libna e ao seu rei, assim fez a Debir e ao seu rei. 
Assim, feriu Josué toda aquela terra, as montanhas, e o sul, e as campinas, e as descidas das águas, e todos os seus reis; nada deixou de resto; mas tudo o que tinha fôlego destruiu, como ordenara o Senhor, Deus de Israel. 41 E Josué os feriu desde Cades-Barneia até Gaza, como também toda a terra de Gósen até Gibeão. 42 E de uma vez tomou Josué todos esses reis e as suas terras, porquanto o Senhor, Deus de Israel, pelejava por Israel. 43 Então, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, se tornou ao arraial em Gilgal.

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; 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. 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, 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. 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. 
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. 
So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour. 
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. 9 Joshua therefore came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night. 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. 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. 
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. 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. 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. 
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. 16 But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah. 17 And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah. 18 And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men by it for to keep them: 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. 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. 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. 22 Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out those five kings unto me out of the cave. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 
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. 29 Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah: 30 And the 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 let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho. 
And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it: 32 And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which 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. 
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining. 
And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it: 35 And 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. 36 And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it: 37 And 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 destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein. 
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it: 39 And 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 her king. 
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. 41 And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon. 42 And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel. 43 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

Josué 11

Gibeão é sitiada por cinco reis
E sucedeu que, ouvindo Adoni-Zedeque, rei de Jerusalém, que Josué tomara a Ai, e a tinha destruído totalmente, e fizera a Ai e ao seu rei como tinha feito a Jericó e ao seu rei, e que os moradores de Gibeão fizeram paz com os israelitas, e estavam no meio deles, 2 temeu muito, porque Gibeão era uma cidade grande como uma das cidades reais e ainda maior do que Ai, e todos os seus homens, valentes. 3 Pelo que Adoni-Zedeque, rei de Jerusalém, enviou mensageiros a Hoão, rei de Hebrom, e a Pirã, rei de Jarmute, e a Jafia, rei de Laquis, e a Debir, rei de Eglom, dizendo: 4 Subi a mim e ajudai-me; e firamos a Gibeão, porquanto fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel. 5 Então, se ajuntaram e subiram cinco reis dos amorreus, o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebrom, o rei de Jarmute, o rei de Laquis, o rei de Eglom, eles e todos os seus exércitos; e sitiaram a Gibeão e pelejaram contra ela. 
Josué socorre a Gibeão
Enviaram, pois, os homens de Gibeão a Josué ao arraial de Gilgal, dizendo: Não retires as tuas mãos de teus servos; sobe apressadamente a nós, e livra-nos, e ajuda-nos, porquanto todos os reis dos amorreus que habitam na montanha se ajuntaram contra nós. 7 Então, subiu Josué de Gilgal, ele e toda a gente de guerra com ele e todos os valentes e valorosos. 8 E o Senhor disse a Josué: Não os temas, porque os tenho dado na tua mão; nenhum deles parará diante de ti. 9 E Josué lhes sobreveio de repente, porque toda a noite veio subindo desde Gilgal. 10 E o Senhor os conturbou diante de Israel, e os feriu de grande ferida em Gibeão, e seguiu-os pelo caminho que sobe a Bete-Horom, e os feriu até Azeca e Maquedá. 11 E sucedeu que, fugindo eles diante de Israel à descida de Bete-Horom, o Senhor lançou sobre eles, do céu, grandes pedras até Azeca, e morreram; e foram muitos mais os que morreram das pedras da saraiva do que os que os filhos de Israel mataram à espada. 
O sol e a lua são detidos
Então, Josué falou ao Senhor, no dia em que o Senhor deu os amorreus na mão dos filhos de Israel, e disse aos olhos dos israelitas: Sol, detém-te em Gibeão, e tu lua, no vale de Aijalom. 13 E o sol se deteve, e a lua parou, até que o povo se vingou de seus inimigos. Isso não está escrito no Livro do Reto? O sol, pois, se deteve no meio do céu e não se apressou a pôr-se, quase um dia inteiro. 
E não houve dia semelhante a este, nem antes nem depois dele, ouvindo o Senhor, assim, a voz de um homem; porque o Senhor pelejava por Israel. 15 E tornou-se Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, ao arraial, a Gilgal. 
Josué prende os cinco reis e mata-os
Aqueles cinco reis, porém, fugiram e se esconderam numa cova em Maquedá. 17 E foi anunciado a Josué, dizendo: Acharam-se os cinco reis escondidos numa cova em Maquedá. 18 Disse, pois, Josué: Arrojai grandes pedras à boca da cova e ponde sobre ela homens que os guardem; 19 porém vós não vos detenhais; segui os vossos inimigos e feri os que ficaram atrás; não os deixeis entrar nas suas cidades, porque o Senhor, vosso Deus, já vo-los deu na vossa mão. 20 E sucedeu que, acabando Josué e os filhos de Israel de os ferir a grande ferida, até consumi-los, e tendo os que ficaram deles se retirado às cidades fortes, 21 todo o povo se tornou em paz a Josué, ao arraial em Maquedá; não havendo ninguém que movesse a sua língua contra os filhos de Israel. 
Depois, disse Josué: Abri a boca da cova e trazei-me aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova. 23 Fizeram, pois, assim e trouxeram-lhe aqueles cinco reis para fora da cova: o rei de Jerusalém, o rei de Hebrom, o rei de Jarmute, o rei de Laquis e o rei de Eglom. 24 E sucedeu que, sendo trazidos aqueles reis a Josué, este chamou todos os homens de Israel e disse aos capitães da gente de guerra, que com eles foram: Chegai e ponde os vossos pés sobre os pescoços destes reis. E chegaram e puseram os seus pés sobre os seus pescoços. 25 Então, Josué lhes disse: Não temais, nem vos espanteis; esforçai-vos e animai-vos, porque assim fará o Senhor a todos os vossos inimigos, contra os quais pelejardes. 26 E, depois disto, Josué os feriu, e os matou, e os pendurou em cinco madeiros; e ficaram enforcados nos madeiros até à tarde. 27 E sucedeu que, ao tempo do pôr do sol, deu Josué ordem que os tirassem dos madeiros; e lançaram-nos na cova onde se esconderam e puseram grandes pedras à boca da cova, que ainda ali estão até ao mesmo dia de hoje. 
Josué vence mais sete reis
E, naquele mesmo dia, tomou Josué a Maquedá, feriu-a a fio de espada e destruiu o seu rei, a eles e a toda alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto; e fez ao rei de Maquedá como fizera ao rei de Jericó. 
Então, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Maquedá a Libna e pelejou contra Libna. 30 E também o Senhor a deu na mão de Israel, a ela e a seu rei, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela e a toda alma que nela havia; nada deixou de resto; e fez ao seu rei como fizera ao rei de Jericó. 
Então, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Libna a Laquis, e a sitiou, e pelejou contra ela. 32 E o Senhor deu a Laquis na mão de Israel, e tomou-a no dia seguinte, e a feriu a fio de espada, a ela e a toda alma que nela havia, conforme tudo o que fizera a Libna. 
Então, Horão, rei de Gezer, subiu a ajudar a Laquis; porém Josué o feriu, a ele e ao seu povo, até que nenhum lhe deixou de resto. 
E Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, passou de Laquis a Eglom, e a sitiaram e pelejaram contra ela; 35 e, no mesmo dia, a tomaram e a feriram a fio de espada; e a toda alma que nela havia destruiu totalmente no mesmo dia, conforme tudo o que fizeram a Laquis. 36 Depois, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, subiu de Eglom a Hebrom, e pelejaram contra ela; 37 e a tomaram e a feriram a fio de espada, assim ao seu rei como a todas as suas cidades, e a toda alma que nelas havia; a ninguém deixou com vida, conforme tudo o que fizeram a Eglom; e Josué a destruiu totalmente, a ela e a toda alma que nela havia. 
Então, Josué e todo o Israel com ele, tornou a Debir e pelejou contra ela; 39 e tomou-a com o seu rei e todas as suas cidades e as feriu a fio de espada; e a toda alma que nelas havia destruiu totalmente, nada deixou de resto; como fizera a Hebrom, a Libna e ao seu rei, assim fez a Debir e ao seu rei. 
Assim, feriu Josué toda aquela terra, as montanhas, e o sul, e as campinas, e as descidas das águas, e todos os seus reis; nada deixou de resto; mas tudo o que tinha fôlego destruiu, como ordenara o Senhor, Deus de Israel. 41 E Josué os feriu desde Cades-Barneia até Gaza, como também toda a terra de Gósen até Gibeão. 42 E de uma vez tomou Josué todos esses reis e as suas terras, porquanto o Senhor, Deus de Israel, pelejava por Israel. 43 Então, Josué, e todo o Israel com ele, se tornou ao arraial em Gilgal. 

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; 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. 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, 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. 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. 
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.

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. 29 Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah: 30 And the 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 let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho. 
And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it: 32 And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which 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. 
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining. 
And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it: 35 And 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. 36 And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it: 37 And 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 destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein. 
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it: 39 And 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 her king. 
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. 41 And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon. 42 And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel. 43 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
