And Joshua called for them, and he spake unto them, saying, Wherefore have ye beguiled us, saying, We are very far from you; when ye dwell among us?

יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that Jehovah 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 for our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of Jehovah, unto this day, in the place which he should choose.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem 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;

יְהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

Come up unto me, and help me, and let us smite Gibeon; for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

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 hill-country are gathered together against us.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Jehovah said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly; [supplied: for] he went up from Gilgal all the night.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

Then spake Joshua to Jehovah in the day when Jehovah 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 Aijalon.

יְהוֹשֻׁעַ֙ ye.ho.shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.

לִיהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ (יהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ) ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua said, Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them:

יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

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, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֛עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth those five kings unto me out of the cave.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And it came to pass, when they brought forth those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the chiefs of the men of war that 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.

יְהוֹשֻׁעַ֒ ye.ho.shu.a' “Joshua”יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage: for thus shall Jehovah do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

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 hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, unto this very day.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And 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 left none remaining; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done unto the king of Jericho.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:

יְ֠הוֹשֻׁעַ Ye.ho.shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:

יְ֠הוֹשֻׁעַ Ye.ho.shu.a' “Joshua”

Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, unto Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it;

יְ֠הוֹשֻׁעַ Ye.ho.shu.a' “Joshua”
