And it came to pass, whenJabinking of Hazor had heardthosethings, that he sent to Jobabking of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
And to the kingsthatwere on the north of the mountains, and of the plainssouth of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,
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 mountains, and to the HiviteunderHermon in the land of Mizpeh.
And theywent out, they and all theirhostswiththem, muchpeople, even as the sandthat is upon the sea shore in multitude, withhorses and chariotsverymany.
And the LORDsaiduntoJoshua, Be not afraidbecause of them: for to morrowaboutthistimewill I deliverthem up all slainbeforeIsrael: thoushalthoughtheirhorses, and burntheirchariotswithfire.
And the LORDdeliveredtheminto the hand of Israel, who smotethem, and chasedthemuntogreatZidon, and untoMisrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeheastward; and theysmotethem, untiltheyleftthemnoneremaining.
And theysmote all the soulsthatwerethereinwith the edge of the sword, utterlydestroyingthem: there was not any left to breathe: and he burntHazorwithfire.
And all the cities of thosekings, and all the kings of them, did Joshuatake, and smotethemwith the edge of the sword, and he utterlydestroyedthem, as Moses the servant of the LORDcommanded.
And all the spoil of thesecities, and the cattle, the children of Israeltook for a preyuntothemselves; but every man theysmotewith the edge of the sword, untilthey had destroyedthem, neitherleftthey any to breathe.
So Joshuatook all thatland, the hills, and all the southcountry, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;
Evenfrom the mountHalak, thatgoeth up to Seir, evenuntoBaalgad in the valley of LebanonundermountHermon: and all theirkings he took, and smotethem, and slewthem.
For it was of the LORD to hardentheirhearts, thattheyshouldcomeagainstIsrael in battle, that he mightdestroythemutterly, and thattheymighthave no favour, but that he mightdestroythem, as the LORDcommandedMoses.
And at thattimecameJoshua, and cut off the Anakimsfrom the mountains, fromHebron, fromDebir, fromAnab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshuadestroyedthemutterlywiththeircities.
So Joshuatook the wholeland, according to all that the LORDsaiduntoMoses; and Joshuagave it for an inheritanceuntoIsraelaccording to theirdivisions by theirtribes. And the landrestedfrom war.
