Joshua:1:4 @ From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphra'tes, all the land of the Hittites to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your territory.
rsv@Joshua:1:5 @ No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will not fail you or forsake you.
rsv@Joshua:1:6 @ Be strong and of good courage; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
rsv@Joshua:1:7 @ Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded you; turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.
rsv@Joshua:1:8 @ This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
rsv@Joshua:1:9 @ Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; be not frightened, neither be dismayed; for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."
rsv@Joshua:1:11 @ "Pass through the camp, and command the people, `Prepare your provisions; for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in to take possession of the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess.'"
rsv@Joshua:1:12 @ And to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manas'seh Joshua said,
rsv@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle shall remain in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but all the men of valor among you shall pass over armed before your brethren and shall help them,
rsv@Joshua:1:15 @ until the LORD gives rest to your brethren as well as to you, and they also take possession of the land which the LORD your God is giving them; then you shall return to the land of your possession, and shall possess it, the land which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise."
rsv@Joshua:1:17 @ Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you; only may the LORD your God be with you, as he was with Moses!
rsv@Joshua:2:1 @ And Joshua the son of Nun sent two men secretly from Shittim as spies, saying, "Go, view the land, especially Jericho." And they went, and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lodged there.
rsv@Joshua:2:2 @ And it was told the king of Jericho, "Behold, certain men of Israel have come here tonight to search out the land."
rsv@Joshua:2:6 @ But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax which she had laid in order on the roof.
rsv@Joshua:2:9 @ and said to the men, "I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
rsv@Joshua:2:10 @ For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites that were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.
rsv@Joshua:2:11 @ And as soon as we heard it, our hearts melted, and there was no courage left in any man, because of you; for the LORD your God is he who is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.
rsv@Joshua:2:12 @ Now then, swear to me by the LORD that as I have dealt kindly with you, you also will deal kindly with my father's house, and give me a sure sign,
rsv@Joshua:2:14 @ And the men said to her, "Our life for yours! If you do not tell this business of ours, then we will deal kindly and faithfully with you when the LORD gives us the land."
rsv@Joshua:2:15 @ Then she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was built into the city wall, so that she dwelt in the wall.
rsv@Joshua:2:17 @ The men said to her, "We will be guiltless with respect to this oath of yours which you have made us swear.
rsv@Joshua:2:19 @ If any one goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we shall be guiltless; but if a hand is laid upon any one who is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head.
rsv@Joshua:2:20 @ But if you tell this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless with respect to your oath which you have made us swear."
rsv@Joshua:2:21 @ And she said, "According to your words, so be it." Then she sent them away, and they departed; and she bound the scarlet cord in the window.
rsv@Joshua:2:24 @ And they said to Joshua, "Truly the LORD has given all the land into our hands; and moreover all the inhabitants of the land are fainthearted because of us."
rsv@Joshua:3:1 @ Early in the morning Joshua rose and set out from Shittim, with all the people of Israel; and they came to the Jordan, and lodged there before they passed over.
rsv@Joshua:3:3 @ and commanded the people, "When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God being carried by the Levitical priests, then you shall set out from your place and follow it,
rsv@Joshua:3:4 @ that you may know the way you shall go, for you have not passed this way before. Yet there shall be a space between you and it, a distance of about two thousand cubits; do not come near it."
rsv@Joshua:3:7 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, "This day I will begin to exalt you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.
rsv@Joshua:3:9 @ And Joshua said to the people of Israel, "Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God."
rsv@Joshua:3:10 @ And Joshua said, "Hereby you shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Hivites, the Per'izzites, the Gir'gashites, the Amorites, and the Jeb'usites.
rsv@Joshua:3:14 @ So, when the people set out from their tents, to pass over the Jordan with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,
rsv@Joshua:3:15 @ and when those who bore the ark had come to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests bearing the ark were dipped in the brink of the water (the Jordan overflows all its banks throughout the time of harvest),
rsv@Joshua:3:16 @ the waters coming down from above stood and rose up in a heap far off, at Adam, the city that is beside Zar'ethan, and those flowing down toward the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were wholly cut off; and the people passed over opposite Jericho.
rsv@Joshua:4:3 @ and command them, `Take twelve stones from here out of the midst of the Jordan, from the very place where the priests' feet stood, and carry them over with you, and lay them down in the place where you lodge tonight.'"
rsv@Joshua:4:7 @ Then you shall tell them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it passed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. So these stones shall be to the people of Israel a memorial for ever."
rsv@Joshua:4:8 @ And the men of Israel did as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, according to the number of the tribes of the people of Israel, as the LORD told Joshua; and they carried them over with them to the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.
rsv@Joshua:4:18 @ And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the LORD came up from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks, as before.
rsv@Joshua:5:1 @ When all the kings of the Amorites that were beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings of the Canaanites that were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan for the people of Israel until they had crossed over, their heart melted, and there was no longer any spirit in them, because of the people of Israel.
rsv@Joshua:5:6 @ For the people of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the nation, the men of war that came forth out of Egypt, perished, because they did not hearken to the voice of the LORD; to them the LORD swore that he would not let them see the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
rsv@Joshua:5:7 @ So it was their children, whom he raised up in their stead, that Joshua circumcised; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the way.
rsv@Joshua:5:12 @ And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they ate of the produce of the land; and the people of Israel had manna no more, but ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
rsv@Joshua:5:13 @ When Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man stood before him with his drawn sword in his hand; and Joshua went to him and said to him, "Are you for us, or for our adversaries?"
rsv@Joshua:6:1 @ Now Jericho was shut up from within and from without because of the people of Israel; none went out, and none came in.
rsv@Joshua:6:2 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, "See, I have given into your hand Jericho, with its king and mighty men of valor.
rsv@Joshua:6:3 @ You shall march around the city, all the men of war going around the city once. Thus shall you do for six days.
rsv@Joshua:6:4 @ And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark; and on the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, the priests blowing the trumpets.
rsv@Joshua:6:5 @ And when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, as soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city will fall down flat, and the people shall go up every man straight before him."
rsv@Joshua:6:7 @ And he said to the people, "Go forward; march around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the ark of the LORD."
rsv@Joshua:6:8 @ And as Joshua had commanded the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the LORD went forward, blowing the trumpets, with the ark of the covenant of the LORD following them.
rsv@Joshua:6:10 @ But Joshua commanded the people, "You shall not shout or let your voice be heard, neither shall any word go out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then you shall shout."
rsv@Joshua:6:11 @ So he caused the ark of the LORD to compass the city, going about it once; and they came into the camp, and spent the night in the camp.
rsv@Joshua:6:14 @ And the second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. So they did for six days.
rsv@Joshua:6:15 @ On the seventh day they rose early at the dawn of day, and marched around the city in the same manner seven times: it was only on that day that they marched around the city seven times.
rsv@Joshua:6:16 @ And at the seventh time, when the priests had blown the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, "Shout; for the LORD has given you the city.
rsv@Joshua:6:17 @ And the city and all that is within it shall be devoted to the LORD for destruction; only Rahab the harlot and all who are with her in her house shall live, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
rsv@Joshua:6:18 @ But you, keep yourselves from the things devoted to destruction, lest when you have devoted them you take any of the devoted things and make the camp of Israel a thing for destruction, and bring trouble upon it.
rsv@Joshua:6:20 @ So the people shouted, and the trumpets were blown. As soon as the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the people raised a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
rsv@Joshua:6:21 @ Then they utterly destroyed all in the city, both men and women, young and old, oxen, sheep, and asses, with the edge of the sword.
rsv@Joshua:6:22 @ And Joshua said to the two men who had spied out the land, "Go into the harlot's house, and bring out from it the woman, and all who belong to her, as you swore to her."
rsv@Joshua:6:24 @ And they burned the city with fire, and all within it; only the silver and gold, and the vessels of bronze and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.
rsv@Joshua:6:26 @ Joshua laid an oath upon them at that time, saying, "Cursed before the LORD be the man that rises up and rebuilds this city, Jericho. At the cost of his first-born shall he lay its foundation, and at the cost of his youngest son shall he set up its gates."
rsv@Joshua:6:27 @ So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
rsv@Joshua:7:1 @ But the people of Israel broke faith in regard to the devoted things; for Achan the son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of the devoted things; and the anger of the LORD burned against the people of Israel.
rsv@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said, "Alas, O Lord GOD, why hast thou brought this people over the Jordan at all, to give us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us? Would that we had been content to dwell beyond the Jordan!
rsv@Joshua:7:9 @ For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and will surround us, and cut off our name from the earth; and what wilt thou do for thy great name?"
rsv@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore the people of Israel cannot stand before their enemies; they turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become a thing for destruction. I will be with you no more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.
rsv@Joshua:7:15 @ And he who is taken with the devoted things shall be burned with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and because he has done a shameful thing in Israel.'"
rsv@Joshua:7:17 @ and he brought near the families of Judah, and the family of the Zer'ahites was taken; and he brought near the family of the Zer'ahites man by man, and Zabdi was taken;
rsv@Joshua:7:19 @ Then Joshua said to Achan, "My son, give glory to the LORD God of Israel, and render praise to him; and tell me now what you have done; do not hide it from me."
rsv@Joshua:7:21 @ when I saw among the spoil a beautiful mantle from Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, then I coveted them, and took them; and behold, they are hidden in the earth inside my tent, with the silver underneath."
rsv@Joshua:7:22 @ So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent; and behold, it was hidden in his tent with the silver underneath.
rsv@Joshua:7:24 @ And Joshua and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver and the mantle and the bar of gold, and his sons and daughters, and his oxen and asses and sheep, and his tent, and all that he had; and they brought them up to the Valley of Achor.
rsv@Joshua:7:25 @ And Joshua said, "Why did you bring trouble on us? The LORD brings trouble on you today." And all Israel stoned him with stones; they burned them with fire, and stoned them with stones.
rsv@Joshua:8:1 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not fear or be dismayed; take all the fighting men with you, and arise, go up to Ai; see, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, and his people, his city, and his land;
rsv@Joshua:8:2 @ and you shall do to Ai and its king as you did to Jericho and its king; only its spoil and its cattle you shall take as booty for yourselves; lay an ambush against the city, behind it."
rsv@Joshua:8:4 @ And he commanded them, "Behold, you shall lie in ambush against the city, behind it; do not go very far from the city, but hold yourselves all in readiness;
rsv@Joshua:8:5 @ and I, and all the people who are with me, will approach the city. And when they come out against us, as before, we shall flee before them;
rsv@Joshua:8:6 @ and they will come out after us, till we have drawn them away from the city; for they will say, `They are fleeing from us, as before.' So we will flee from them;
rsv@Joshua:8:7 @ then you shall rise up from the ambush, and seize the city; for the LORD your God will give it into your hand.
rsv@Joshua:8:8 @ And when you have taken the city, you shall set the city on fire, doing as the LORD has bidden; see, I have commanded you."
rsv@Joshua:8:10 @ And Joshua arose early in the morning and mustered the people, and went up, with the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.
rsv@Joshua:8:11 @ And all the fighting men who were with him went up, and drew near before the city, and encamped on the north side of Ai, with a ravine between them and Ai.
rsv@Joshua:8:12 @ And he took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, to the west of the city.
rsv@Joshua:8:13 @ So they stationed the forces, the main encampment which was north of the city and its rear guard west of the city. But Joshua spent that night in the valley.
rsv@Joshua:8:14 @ And when the king of Ai saw this he and all his people, the men of the city, made haste and went out early to the descent toward the Arabah to meet Israel in battle; but he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.
rsv@Joshua:8:16 @ So all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and as they pursued Joshua they were drawn away from the city.
rsv@Joshua:8:17 @ There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, who did not go out after Israel; they left the city open, and pursued Israel.
rsv@Joshua:8:18 @ Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai; for I will give it into your hand." And Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.
rsv@Joshua:8:19 @ And the ambush rose quickly out of their place, and as soon as he had stretched out his hand, they ran and entered the city and took it; and they made haste to set the city on fire.
rsv@Joshua:8:20 @ So when the men of Ai looked back, behold, the smoke of the city went up to heaven; and they had no power to flee this way or that, for the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.
rsv@Joshua:8:21 @ And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city went up, then they turned back and smote the men of Ai.
rsv@Joshua:8:22 @ And the others came forth from the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side; and Israel smote them, until there was left none that survived or escaped.
rsv@Joshua:8:24 @ When Israel had finished slaughtering all the inhabitants of Ai in the open wilderness where they pursued them and all of them to the very last had fallen by the edge of the sword, all Israel returned to Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.
rsv@Joshua:8:26 @ For Joshua did not draw back his hand, with which he stretched out the javelin, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
rsv@Joshua:8:27 @ Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took as their booty, according to the word of the LORD which he commanded Joshua.
rsv@Joshua:8:28 @ So Joshua burned Ai, and made it for ever a heap of ruins, as it is to this day.
rsv@Joshua:8:29 @ And he hanged the king of Ai on a tree until evening; and at the going down of the sun Joshua commanded, and they took his body down from the tree, and cast it at the entrance of the gate of the city, and raised over it a great heap of stones, which stands there to this day.
rsv@Joshua:8:31 @ as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded the people of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, "an altar of unhewn stones, upon which no man has lifted an iron tool"; and they offered on it burnt offerings to the LORD, and sacrificed peace offerings.
rsv@Joshua:8:32 @ And there, in the presence of the people of Israel, he wrote upon the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.
rsv@Joshua:8:33 @ And all Israel, sojourner as well as homeborn, with their elders and officers and their judges, stood on opposite sides of the ark before the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD, half of them in front of Mount Ger'izim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded at the first, that they should bless the people of Israel.
rsv@Joshua:8:34 @ And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in the book of the law.
rsv@Joshua:8:35 @ There was not a word of all that Moses commanded which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel, and the women, and the little ones, and the sojourners who lived among them.
rsv@Joshua:9:1 @ When all the kings who were beyond the Jordan in the hill country and in the lowland all along the coast of the Great Sea toward Lebanon, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Per'izzites, the Hivites, and the Jeb'usites, heard of this,
rsv@Joshua:9:2 @ they gathered together with one accord to fight Joshua and Israel.
rsv@Joshua:9:3 @ But when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and to Ai,
rsv@Joshua:9:4 @ they on their part acted with cunning, and went and made ready provisions, and took worn-out sacks upon their asses, and wineskins, worn-out and torn and mended,
rsv@Joshua:9:5 @ with worn-out, patched sandals on their feet, and worn-out clothes; and all their provisions were dry and moldy.
rsv@Joshua:9:6 @ And they went to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, "We have come from a far country; so now make a covenant with us."
rsv@Joshua:9:7 @ But the men of Israel said to the Hivites, "Perhaps you live among us; then how can we make a covenant with you?"
rsv@Joshua:9:10 @ and all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, Sihon the king of Heshbon, and Og king of Bashan, who dwelt in Ash'taroth.
rsv@Joshua:9:11 @ And our elders and all the inhabitants of our country said to us, `Take provisions in your hand for the journey, and go to meet them, and say to them, "We are your servants; come now, make a covenant with us."'
rsv@Joshua:9:12 @ Here is our bread; it was still warm when we took it from our houses as our food for the journey, on the day we set forth to come to you, but now, behold, it is dry and moldy;
rsv@Joshua:9:15 @ And Joshua made peace with them, and made a covenant with them, to let them live; and the leaders of the congregation swore to them.
rsv@Joshua:9:16 @ At the end of three days after they had made a covenant with them, they heard that they were their neighbors, and that they dwelt among them.
rsv@Joshua:9:17 @ And the people of Israel set out and reached their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, Chephi'rah, Be-er'oth, and Kir'iath-je'arim.
rsv@Joshua:9:24 @ They answered Joshua, "Because it was told to your servants for a certainty that the LORD your God had commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; so we feared greatly for our lives because of you, and did this thing.
rsv@Joshua:9:25 @ And now, behold, we are in your hand: do as it seems good and right in your sight to do to us."
rsv@Joshua:10:1 @ When Ado'ni-ze'dek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them,
rsv@Joshua:10:2 @ he feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
rsv@Joshua:10:4 @ "Come up to me, and help me, and let us smite Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel."
rsv@Joshua:10:5 @ Then the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered their forces, and went up with all their armies and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
rsv@Joshua:10:6 @ And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal, saying, "Do not relax your hand from your servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill country are gathered against us."
rsv@Joshua:10:7 @ So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
rsv@Joshua:10:10 @ And the LORD threw them into a panic before Israel, who slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-hor'on, and smote them as far as Aze'kah and Makke'dah.
rsv@Joshua:10:11 @ And as they fled before Israel, while they were going down the ascent of Beth-hor'on, the LORD threw down great stones from heaven upon them as far as Aze'kah, and they died; there were more who died because of the hailstones than the men of Israel killed with the sword.
rsv@Joshua:10:12 @ Then spoke Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD gave the Amorites over to the men of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel, "Sun, stand thou still at Gibeon, and thou Moon in the valley of Ai'jalon."
rsv@Joshua:10:13 @ And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.
rsv@Joshua:10:14 @ There has been no day like it before or since, when the LORD hearkened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.
rsv@Joshua:10:15 @ Then Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.
rsv@Joshua:10:17 @ And it was told Joshua, "The five kings have been found, hidden in the cave at Makke'dah."
rsv@Joshua:10:18 @ And Joshua said, "Roll great stones against the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to guard them;
rsv@Joshua:10:19 @ but do not stay there yourselves, pursue your enemies, fall upon their rear, do not let them enter their cities; for the LORD your God has given them into your hand."
rsv@Joshua:10:20 @ When Joshua and the men of Israel had finished slaying them with a very great slaughter, until they were wiped out, and when the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
rsv@Joshua:10:24 @ And when they brought those kings out to Joshua, Joshua summoned all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, "Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings." Then they came near, and put their feet on their necks.
rsv@Joshua:10:28 @ And Joshua took Makke'dah on that day, and smote it and its king with the edge of the sword; he utterly destroyed every person in it, he left none remaining; and he did to the king of Makke'dah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
rsv@Joshua:10:29 @ Then Joshua passed on from Makke'dah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah;
rsv@Joshua:10:30 @ and the LORD gave it also and its king into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it; he left none remaining in it; and he did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
rsv@Joshua:10:31 @ And Joshua passed on from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and laid siege to it, and assaulted it:
rsv@Joshua:10:32 @ and the LORD gave Lachish into the hand of Israel, and he took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it, as he had done to Libnah.
rsv@Joshua:10:34 @ And Joshua passed on with all Israel from Lachish to Eglon; and they laid siege to it, and assaulted it;
rsv@Joshua:10:35 @ and they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and every person in it he utterly destroyed that day, as he had done to Lachish.
rsv@Joshua:10:36 @ Then Joshua went up with all Israel from Eglon to Hebron; and they assaulted it,
rsv@Joshua:10:37 @ and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king and its towns, and every person in it; he left none remaining, as he had done to Eglon, and utterly destroyed it with every person in it.
rsv@Joshua:10:38 @ Then Joshua, with all Israel, turned back to Debir and assaulted it,
rsv@Joshua:10:39 @ and he took it with its king and all its towns; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed every person in it; he left none remaining; as he had done to Hebron and to Libnah and its king, so he did to Debir and to its king.
rsv@Joshua:10:43 @ Then Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.
rsv@Joshua:11:3 @ to the Canaanites in the east and the west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Per'izzites, and the Jeb'usites in the hill country, and the Hivites under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
rsv@Joshua:11:4 @ And they came out, with all their troops, a great host, in number like the sand that is upon the seashore, with very many horses and chariots.
rsv@Joshua:11:5 @ And all these kings joined their forces, and came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
rsv@Joshua:11:6 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give over all of them, slain, to Israel; you shall hamstring their horses, and burn their chariots with fire."
rsv@Joshua:11:7 @ So Joshua came suddenly upon them with all his people of war, by the waters of Merom, and fell upon them.
rsv@Joshua:11:9 @ And Joshua did to them as the LORD bade him; he hamstrung their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.
rsv@Joshua:11:10 @ And Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and smote its king with the sword; for Hazor formerly was the head of all those kingdoms.
rsv@Joshua:11:11 @ And they put to the sword all who were in it, utterly destroying them; there was none left that breathed, and he burned Hazor with fire.
rsv@Joshua:11:12 @ And all the cities of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua took, and smote them with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded.
rsv@Joshua:11:13 @ But none of the cities that stood on mounds did Israel burn, except Hazor only; that Joshua burned.
rsv@Joshua:11:14 @ And all the spoil of these cities and the cattle, the people of Israel took for their booty; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, and they did not leave any that breathed.
rsv@Joshua:11:16 @ So Joshua took all that land, the hill country and all the Negeb and all the land of Goshen and the lowland and the Arabah and the hill country of Israel and its lowland
rsv@Joshua:11:18 @ Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
rsv@Joshua:11:19 @ There was not a city that made peace with the people of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon; they took all in battle.
rsv@Joshua:11:20 @ For it was the LORD's doing to harden their hearts that they should come against Israel in battle, in order that they should be utterly destroyed, and should receive no mercy but be exterminated, as the LORD commanded Moses.
rsv@Joshua:11:21 @ And Joshua came at that time, and wiped out the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel; Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.
rsv@Joshua:11:23 @ So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD had spoken to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their tribal allotments. And the land had rest from war.
rsv@Joshua:12:1 @ Now these are the kings of the land, whom the people of Israel defeated, and took possession of their land beyond the Jordan toward the sunrising, from the valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon, with all the Arabah eastward:
rsv@Joshua:12:2 @ Sihon king of the Amorites who dwelt at Heshbon, and ruled from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and from the middle of the valley as far as the river Jabbok, the boundary of the Ammonites, that is, half of Gilead,
rsv@Joshua:12:5 @ and ruled over Mount Hermon and Sal'ecah and all Bashan to the boundary of the Gesh'urites and the Ma-ac'athites, and over half of Gilead to the boundary of Sihon king of Heshbon.
rsv@Joshua:12:6 @ Moses, the servant of the LORD, and the people of Israel defeated them; and Moses the servant of the LORD gave their land for a possession to the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manas'seh.
rsv@Joshua:12:8 @ in the hill country, in the lowland, in the Arabah, in the slopes, in the wilderness, and in the Negeb, the land of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Per'izzites, the Hivites, and the Jeb'usites):
rsv@Joshua:13:2 @ This is the land that yet remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all those of the Gesh'urites
rsv@Joshua:13:3 @ (from the Shihor, which is east of Egypt, northward to the boundary of Ekron, it is reckoned as Canaanite; there are five rulers of the Philistines, those of Gaza, Ashdod, Ash'kelon, Gath, and Ekron), and those of the Avvim,
rsv@Joshua:13:4 @ in the south, all the land of the Canaanites, and Mear'ah which belongs to the Sido'nians, to Aphek, to the boundary of the Amorites,
rsv@Joshua:13:5 @ and the land of the Geb'alites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrising, from Ba'al-gad below Mount Hermon to the entrance of Hamath,
rsv@Joshua:13:6 @ all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Mis'rephoth-ma'im, even all the Sido'nians. I will myself drive them out from before the people of Israel; only allot the land to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.
rsv@Joshua:13:7 @ Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and half the tribe of Manas'seh."
rsv@Joshua:13:8 @ With the other half of the tribe of Manas'seh the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of the LORD gave them:
rsv@Joshua:13:9 @ from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the tableland of Med'eba as far as Dibon;
rsv@Joshua:13:10 @ and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the boundary of the Ammonites;
rsv@Joshua:13:11 @ and Gilead, and the region of the Gesh'urites and Ma-ac'athites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Sal'ecah;
rsv@Joshua:13:13 @ Yet the people of Israel did not drive out the Gesh'urites or the Ma-ac'athites; but Geshur and Ma'acath dwell in the midst of Israel to this day.
rsv@Joshua:13:14 @ To the tribe of Levi alone Moses gave no inheritance; the offerings by fire to the LORD God of Israel are their inheritance, as he said to him.
rsv@Joshua:13:15 @ And Moses gave an inheritance to the tribe of the Reubenites according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:16 @ So their territory was from Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the tableland by Med'eba;
rsv@Joshua:13:17 @ with Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the tableland; Dibon, and Ba'moth-ba'al, and Beth-ba'al-me'on,
rsv@Joshua:13:21 @ that is, all the cities of the tableland, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses defeated with the leaders of Mid'ian, Evi and Rekem and Zur and Hur and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who dwelt in the land.
rsv@Joshua:13:22 @ Balaam also, the son of Be'or, the soothsayer, the people of Israel killed with the sword among the rest of their slain.
rsv@Joshua:13:23 @ And the border of the people of Reuben was the Jordan as a boundary. This was the inheritance of the Reubenites, according to their families with their cities and villages.
rsv@Joshua:13:24 @ And Moses gave an inheritance also to the tribe of the Gadites, according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:25 @ Their territory was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the Ammonites, to Aro'er, which is east of Rabbah,
rsv@Joshua:13:26 @ and from Heshbon to Ra'math-miz'peh and Bet'onim, and from Mahana'im to the territory of Debir,
rsv@Joshua:13:28 @ This is the inheritance of the Gadites according to their families, with their cities and villages.
rsv@Joshua:13:29 @ And Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manas'seh; it was allotted to the half-tribe of the Manas'sites according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:30 @ Their region extended from Mahana'im, through all Bashan, the whole kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Ja'ir, which are in Bashan, sixty cities,
rsv@Joshua:13:31 @ and half Gilead, and Ash'taroth, and Ed're-i, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan; these were allotted to the people of Machir the son of Manas'seh for the half of the Machirites according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:13:32 @ These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan east of Jericho.
rsv@Joshua:13:33 @ But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance; the LORD God of Israel is their inheritance, as he said to them.
rsv@Joshua:14:1 @ And these are the inheritances which the people of Israel received in the land of Canaan, which Elea'zar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the tribes of the people of Israel distributed to them.
rsv@Joshua:14:2 @ Their inheritance was by lot, as the LORD had commanded Moses for the nine and one-half tribes.
rsv@Joshua:14:3 @ For Moses had given an inheritance to the two and one-half tribes beyond the Jordan; but to the Levites he gave no inheritance among them.
rsv@Joshua:14:4 @ For the people of Joseph were two tribes, Manas'seh and E'phraim; and no portion was given to the Levites in the land, but only cities to dwell in, with their pasture lands for their cattle and their substance.
rsv@Joshua:14:6 @ Then the people of Judah came to Joshua at Gilgal; and Caleb the son of Jephun'neh the Ken'izzite said to him, "You know what the LORD said to Moses the man of God in Ka'desh-bar'nea concerning you and me.
rsv@Joshua:14:7 @ I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Ka'desh-bar'nea to spy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in my heart.
rsv@Joshua:14:8 @ But my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt; yet I wholly followed the LORD my God.
rsv@Joshua:14:9 @ And Moses swore on that day, saying, `Surely the land on which your foot has trodden shall be an inheritance for you and your children for ever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.'
rsv@Joshua:14:12 @ So now give me this hill country of which the LORD spoke on that day; for you heard on that day how the Anakim were there, with great fortified cities: it may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall drive them out as the LORD said."
rsv@Joshua:14:13 @ Then Joshua blessed him; and he gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephun'neh for an inheritance.
rsv@Joshua:14:14 @ So Hebron became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephun'neh the Ken'izzite to this day, because he wholly followed the LORD, the God of Israel.

rsv@Joshua:15:7 @ and the boundary goes up to Debir from the Valley of Achor, and so northward, turning toward Gilgal, which is opposite the ascent of Adum'mim, which is on the south side of the valley; and the boundary passes along to the waters of En-she'mesh, and ends at En-ro'gel;
rsv@Joshua:15:8 @ then the boundary goes up by the valley of the son of Hinnom at the southern shoulder of the Jeb'usite (that is, Jerusalem); and the boundary goes up to the top of the mountain that lies over against the valley of Hinnom, on the west, at the northern end of the valley of Reph'aim;
rsv@Joshua:15:9 @ then the boundary extends from the top of the mountain to the spring of the Waters of Nephto'ah, and from there to the cities of Mount Ephron; then the boundary bends round to Ba'alah (that is, Kir'iath-je'arim);
rsv@Joshua:15:12 @ And the west boundary was the Great Sea with its coast-line. This is the boundary round about the people of Judah according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:15:15 @ And he went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir formerly was Kir'iath-se'pher.
rsv@Joshua:15:16 @ And Caleb said, "Whoever smites Kir'iath-se'pher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife."
rsv@Joshua:15:17 @ And Oth'ni-el the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
rsv@Joshua:15:20 @ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the people of Judah according to their families.
rsv@Joshua:15:21 @ The cities belonging to the tribe of the people of Judah in the extreme South, toward the boundary of Edom, were Kabzeel, Eder, Jagur,
rsv@Joshua:15:23 @ Kedesh, Hazor, Ithnan,

rsv@Joshua:15:51 @ Goshen, Holon, and Giloh: eleven cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:15:54 @ Humtah, Kir'iath-ar'ba (that is, Hebron), and Zi'or: nine cities with their villages.

rsv@Joshua:15:62 @ Nibshan, the City of Salt, and En-ge'di: six cities with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:15:63 @ But the Jeb'usites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the people of Judah could not drive out; so the Jeb'usites dwell with the people of Judah at Jerusalem to this day.
rsv@Joshua:16:2 @ then going from Bethel to Luz, it passes along to At'aroth, the territory of the Archites;
rsv@Joshua:16:3 @ then it goes down westward to the territory of the Japh'letites, as far as the territory of Lower Beth-hor'on, then to Gezer, and it ends at the sea.
rsv@Joshua:16:4 @ The people of Joseph, Manas'seh and E'phraim, received their inheritance.
rsv@Joshua:16:5 @ The territory of the E'phraimites by their families was as follows: the boundary of their inheritance on the east was At'aroth-ad'dar as far as Upper Beth-hor'on,
rsv@Joshua:16:6 @ and the boundary goes thence to the sea; on the north is Mich-me'thath; then on the east the boundary turns round toward Ta'anath-shi'loh, and passes along beyond it on the east to Jan-o'ah,

rsv@Joshua:16:9 @ together with the towns which were set apart for the E'phraimites within the inheritance of the Manas'sites, all those towns with their villages.
rsv@Joshua:16:10 @ However they did not drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer: so the Canaanites have dwelt in the midst of E'phraim to this day but have become slaves to do forced labor.
rsv@Joshua:17:4 @ They came before Elea'zar the priest and Joshua the son of Nun and the leaders, and said, "The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance along with our brethren." So according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
rsv@Joshua:17:6 @ because the daughters of Manas'seh received an inheritance along with his sons. The land of Gilead was allotted to the rest of the Manas'sites.
rsv@Joshua:17:7 @ The territory of Manas'seh reached from Asher to Mich-me'thath, which is east of Shechem; then the boundary goes along southward to the inhabitants of En-tap'puah.
rsv@Joshua:17:9 @ Then the boundary went down to the brook Kanah. The cities here, to the south of the brook, among the cities of Manas'seh, belong to E'phraim. Then the boundary of Manas'seh goes on the north side of the brook and ends at the sea;
rsv@Joshua:17:10 @ the land to the south being E'phraim's and that to the north being Manas'seh's, with the sea forming its boundary; on the north Asher is reached, and on the east Is'sachar.

rsv@Joshua:17:13 @ But when the people of Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
rsv@Joshua:17:14 @ And the tribe of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, "Why have you given me but one lot and one portion as an inheritance, although I am a numerous people, since hitherto the LORD has blessed me?"
rsv@Joshua:17:15 @ And Joshua said to them, "If you are a numerous people, go up to the forest, and there clear ground for yourselves in the land of the Per'izzites and the Reph'aim, since the hill country of E'phraim is too narrow for you."![[pBiblx2]](/img/menu.png)
