that
were
therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying
them:
there was not any left to
breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.
12
And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them,
did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword,
and
he utterly destroyed them, as
Moses the servant of the L
ORD
commanded.
13
But
as for
the cities that stood still in their strength,
Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only;
that
did Joshua burn.
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 to breathe.
15
As the L
ORD
commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua;
he left nothing undone of all that the L
ORD
commanded Moses.
16
So Joshua took all that land, the
hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the
mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;
17
Even
from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir,
even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and
smote them, and slew them.
18
Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
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 in battle.
20
For it was of the L
ORD
to harden their hearts, that they should come
against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly,
and
that they might have no favour, but
that he might destroy them, as the L
ORD
commanded Moses.
21
And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron,
from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel:
Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.
22
There was none of the Anakims left in the land
of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.
23
So Joshua took
the whole land, according to all that the L
ORD
said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance
unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
CHAPTER 12
Now these
are
the kings of the land, which the children of Israel smote, and possessed their land
on the other side Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the river Arnon unto mount Hermon,
and all the plain on the east:
2
Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon,
and
ruled from
Aroer, which
is
upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from half
Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok,
which is
the border of the children of Ammon;
3
And from the
plain to the sea of Chinneroth on the east, and unto the sea of the plain,
even
the salt sea on the
east, the way to Beth-jeshimoth; and from the south, under Ashdoth-pisgah:
4
And the coast of Og king of Bashan,
which was
of the remnant of the giants, that dwelt at
Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
5
And reigned in mount Hermon, and in Salcah, and in all Bashan, unto the
border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and half Gilead, the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.
6
Them did Moses the servant of the L
ORD
and the children of Israel smite: and Moses the servant
