It happened, when all the kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were by the sea, heard how that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.

Yahweh said to Joshua, Behold, I have given into your hand Jericho, and the king of it, and the mighty men of valor.

מַלְכָּ֑הּ (מַלְכָּ֑) mal.Ka “king”

Yahweh said to Joshua, Don't be afraid, neither be dismayed: take all the people of war with you, and arise, go up to Ai; behold, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land;

מֶ֤לֶךְ Me.lekh “[the] king of”

You shall do to Ai and her king as you did to Jericho and her king: only the spoil of it, and the cattle of it, shall you take for a prey to yourselves: set you an ambush for the city behind it.

It happened, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hurried and rose up early, and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the Arabah; but he didn't know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

מֶֽלֶךְ־ Me.lekh- “[the] king of”

The king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua.

מֶ֥לֶךְ Me.lekh “[the] king of”

The king of Ai he hanged on a tree until the 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 thereon a great heap of stones, to this day.

It happened, when all the kings who were beyond the Jordan, in the hill-country, and in the lowland, and on all the shore of the great sea in front of Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, heard of it;

הַמְּלָכִ֡ים (מְּלָכִ֡ים) me.la.Khim “kings”

and all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, who was at Ashtaroth.

Now it happened, 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;

מֶ֣לֶךְ Me.lekh “[the] king of”וּלְמַלְכָּ֔הּ (מַלְכָּ֔) mal.Ka “king”וּלְמַלְכָּ֑הּ (מַלְכָּ֑) mal.Ka “king”

Therefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, and to Piram king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,

מֶ֣לֶךְ Me.lekh “[the] king of”מֶֽלֶךְ־ Me.lekh- “[the] king of”מֶֽלֶךְ־ Me.lekh- “[the] king of”מֶֽלֶךְ־ Me.lekh- “[the] king of”מֶֽלֶךְ־ Me.lekh- “[the] king of”

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 against Gibeon, and made war against it.

The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Don't slack 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 together against us.

מַלְכֵ֥י mal.Khei “[the] kings of”

These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.

הַמְּלָכִ֣ים (מְּלָכִ֣ים) me.la.Khim “kings”

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

הַמְּלָכִ֔ים (מְּלָכִ֔ים) me.la.Khim “kings”

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

הַמְּלָכִ֥ים (מְּלָכִ֥ים) me.la.Khim “kings”

They did so, and brought forth those five kings to him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.

It happened, when they brought forth those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings. They came near, and put their feet on the necks of them.

Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, and the king of it: he utterly destroyed them and all the souls who were therein; he left none remaining; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.

מַלְכָּהּ֒ (מַלְכָּ) mal.Ka “king”לְמֶ֣לֶךְ (מֶ֣לֶךְ) Me.lekh “[the] king of”לְמֶ֥לֶךְ (מֶ֥לֶךְ) Me.lekh “[the] king of”

and Yahweh delivered it also, and the king of it, into the hand of Israel; and he struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls who were therein; he left none remaining in it; and he did to the king of it as he had done to the king of Jericho.

מַלְכָּהּ֒ (מַלְכָּ) mal.Ka “king”לְמַלְכָּ֔הּ (מַלְכָּ֔) mal.Ka “king”לְמֶ֥לֶךְ (מֶ֥לֶךְ) Me.lekh “[the] king of”

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

מֶ֣לֶךְ Me.lekh “[the] king of”

and they took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, and the king of it, and all the cities of it, and all the souls who were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls who were therein.

מַלְכָּ֨הּ (מַלְכָּ֨) mal.Ka “king”

and he took it, and the king of it, and all the cities of it; and they struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls who were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the king of it; as he had done also to Libnah, and to the king of it.

מַלְכָּ֤הּ (מַלְכָּ֤) mal.Ka “king”וּלְמַלְכָּ֔הּ (מַלְכָּ֔) mal.Ka “king”וּלְמַלְכָּֽהּ׃ (מַלְכָּֽ) mal.Ka “king”

So Joshua struck all the land, the hill-country, and the South, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, commanded.

מַלְכֵיהֶ֔ם (מַלְכֵי) mal.khei. “kings”

All these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
