,this e,book was produced by ,david ,widger with the help of ,derek ,andrew's text from ,january #aiib and the work of ,bryan ,taylor in ,november #bjjb4 ,book #jf ,joshua #jf3jja3jja ,now after the death of ,moses the servant of the ,,lord it came to pass1 that the ,,lord spake unto ,joshua the son of ,nun1 ,moses' minister1 saying1 #jf3jja3jjb ,moses my servant is dead2 now therefore arise1 go over this ,jordan1 thou1 and all this people1 unto the land which ,i do give to them1 even to the children of ,israel4 #jf3jja3jjc ,every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon1 that have ,i given unto you1 as ,i said unto ,moses4 #jf3jja3jjd ,from the wilderness and this ,lebanon even unto the great river1 the river ,euphrates1 all the land of the ,hittites1 and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun1 shall be your coast4 #jf3jja3jje ,there shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life3 as ,i was with ,moses1 so ,i will be with thee3 ,i will not fail thee1 nor forsake thee4 #jf3jja3jjf ,be strong and of a good courage3 for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land1 which ,i sware unto their fathers to give them4 #jf3jja3jjg ,only be thou strong and very courageous1 that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law1 which ,moses my servant commanded thee3 turn not from it to the right hand or to the left1 that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest4 #jf3jja3jjh ,this book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth2 but thou shalt meditate therein day and night1 that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein3 for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous1 and then thou shalt have good success4 #jf3jja3jji ,have not ,i commanded thee8 ,be strong and of a good courage2 be not afraid1 neither be thou dismayed3 for the ,,lord thy ,god is with thee whithersoever thou goest4 #jf3jja3jaj ,then ,joshua commanded the officers of the people1 saying1 #jf3jja3jaa ,pass through the host1 and command the people1 saying1 ,prepare you victuals2 for within three days ye shall pass over this ,jordan1 to go in to possess the land1 which the ,,lord your ,god giveth you to possess it4 #jf3jja3jab ,and to the ,reubenites1 and to the ,gadites1 and to half the tribe of ,manasseh1 spake ,joshua1 saying1 #jf3jja3jac ,remember the word which ,moses the servant of the ,,lord commanded you1 saying1 ,the ,,lord your ,god hath given you rest1 and hath given you this land4 #jf3jja3jad ,your wives1 your little ones1 and your cattle1 shall remain in the land which ,moses gave you on this side ,jordan2 but ye shall pass before your brethren armed1 all the mighty men of valour1 and help them2 #jf3jja3jae ,until the ,,lord have given your brethren rest1 as he hath given you1 and they also have possessed the land which the ,,lord your ,god giveth them3 then ye shall return unto the land of your possession1 and enjoy it1 which ,moses the ,,lord's servant gave you on this side ,jordan toward the sunrising4 #jf3jja3jaf ,and they answered ,joshua1 saying1 ,all that thou commandest us we will do1 and whithersoever thou sendest us1 we will go4 #jf3jja3jag ,according as we hearkened unto ,moses in all things1 so will we hearken unto thee3 only the ,,lord thy ,god be with thee1 as he was with ,moses4 #jf3jja3jah ,whosoever he be that doth rebel against thy commandment1 and will not hearken unto thy words in all that thou commandest him1 he shall be put to death3 only be strong and of a good courage4 #jf3jjb3jja ,and ,joshua the son of ,nun sent out of ,shittim two men to spy secretly1 saying1 ,go view the land1 even ,jericho4 ,and they went1 and came into an harlot's house1 named ,rahab1 and lodged there4 #jf3jjb3jjb ,and it was told the king of ,jericho1 saying1 ,behold1 there came men in hither to night of the children of ,israel to search out the country4 #jf3jjb3jjc ,and the king of ,jericho sent unto ,rahab1 saying1 ,bring forth the men that are come to thee1 which are entered into thine house3 for they be come to search out all the country4 #jf3jjb3jjd ,and the woman took the two men1 and hid them1 and said thus1 ,there came men unto me1 but ,i wist not whence they were3 #jf3jjb3jje ,and it came to pass about the time of shutting of the gate1 when it was dark1 that the men went out3 whither the men went ,i wot not3 pursue after them quickly2 for ye shall overtake them4 #jf3jjb3jjf ,but she had brought them up to the roof of the house1 and hid them with the stalks of flax1 which she had laid in order upon the roof4 #jf3jjb3jjg ,and the men pursued after them the way to ,jordan unto the fords3 and as soon as they which pursued after them were gone out1 they shut the gate4 #jf3jjb3jjh ,and before they were laid down1 she came up unto them upon the roof2 #jf3jjb3jji ,and she said unto the men1 ,i know that the ,,lord hath given you the land1 and that your terror is fallen upon us1 and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you4 #jf3jjb3jaj ,for we have heard how the ,,lord dried up the water of the ,red sea for you1 when ye came out of ,egypt2 and what ye did unto the two kings of the ,amorites1 that were on the other side ,jordan1 ,sihon and ,og1 whom ye utterly destroyed4 #jf3jjb3jaa ,and as soon as we had heard these things1 our hearts did melt1 neither did there remain any more courage in any man1 because of you3 for the ,,lord your ,god1 he is ,god in heaven above1 and in earth beneath4 #jf3jjb3jab ,now therefore1 ,i pray you1 swear unto me by the ,,lord1 since ,i have shewed you kindness1 that ye will also shew kindness unto my father's house1 and give me a true token3 #jf3jjb3jac ,and that ye will save alive my father1 and my mother1 and my brethren1 and my sisters1 and all that they have1 and deliver our lives from death4 #jf3jjb3jad ,and the men answered her1 ,our life for yours1 if ye utter not this our business4 ,and it shall be1 when the ,,lord hath given us the land1 that we will deal kindly and truly with thee4 #jf3jjb3jae ,then she let them down by a cord through the window3 for her house was upon the town wall1 and she dwelt upon the wall4 #jf3jjb3jaf ,and she said unto them1 ,get you to the mountain1 lest the pursuers meet you2 and hide yourselves there three days1 until the pursuers be returned3 and afterward may ye go your way4 #jf3jjb3jag ,and the men said unto her1 ,we will be blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear4 #jf3jjb3jah ,behold1 when we come into the land1 thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by3 and thou shalt bring thy father1 and thy mother1 and thy brethren1 and all thy father's household1 home unto thee4 #jf3jjb3jai ,and it shall be1 that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street1 his blood shall be upon his head1 and we will be guiltless3 and whosoever shall be with thee in the house1 his blood shall be on our head1 if any hand be upon him4 #jf3jjb3jbj ,and if thou utter this our business1 then we will be quit of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear4 #jf3jjb3jba ,and she said1 ,according unto your words1 so be it4 ,and she sent them away1 and they departed3 and she bound the scarlet line in the window4 #jf3jjb3jbb ,and they went1 and came unto the mountain1 and abode there three days1 until the pursuers were returned3 and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way1 but found them not4 #jf3jjb3jbc ,so the two men returned1 and descended from the mountain1 and passed over1 and came to ,joshua the son of ,nun1 and told him all things that befell them3 #jf3jjb3jbd ,and they said unto ,joshua1 ,truly the ,,lord hath delivered into our hands all the land2 for even all the inhabitants of the country do faint because of us4 #jf3jjc3jja ,and ,joshua rose early in the morning2 and they removed from ,shittim1 and came to ,jordan1 he and all the children of ,israel1 and lodged there before they passed over4 #jf3jjc3jjb ,and it came to pass after three days1 that the officers went through the host2 #jf3jjc3jjc ,and they commanded the people1 saying1 ,when ye see the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord your ,god1 and the priests the ,levites bearing it1 then ye shall remove from your place1 and go after it4 #jf3jjc3jjd ,yet there shall be a space between you and it1 about two thousand cubits by measure3 come not near unto it1 that ye may know the way by which ye must go3 for ye have not passed this way heretofore4 #jf3jjc3jje ,and ,joshua said unto the people1 ,sanctify yourselves3 for to morrow the ,,lord will do wonders among you4 #jf3jjc3jjf ,and ,joshua spake unto the priests1 saying1 ,take up the ark of the covenant1 and pass over before the people4 ,and they took up the ark of the covenant1 and went before the people4 #jf3jjc3jjg ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,this day will ,i begin to magnify thee in the sight of all ,israel1 that they may know that1 as ,i was with ,moses1 so ,i will be with thee4 #jf3jjc3jjh ,and thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant1 saying1 ,when ye are come to the brink of the water of ,jordan1 ye shall stand still in ,jordan4 #jf3jjc3jji ,and ,joshua said unto the children of ,israel1 ,come hither1 and hear the words of the ,,lord your ,god4 #jf3jjc3jaj ,and ,joshua said1 ,hereby ye shall know that the living ,god is among you1 and that he will without fail drive out from before you the ,canaanites1 and the ,hittites1 and the ,hivites1 and the ,perizzites1 and the ,girgashites1 and the ,amorites1 and the ,jebusites4 #jf3jjc3jaa ,behold1 the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord of all the earth passeth over before you into ,jordan4 #jf3jjc3jab ,now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of ,israel1 out of every tribe a man4 #jf3jjc3jac ,and it shall come to pass1 as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the ,,lord1 the ,,lord of all the earth1 shall rest in the waters of ,jordan1 that the waters of ,jordan shall be cut off from the waters that come down from above2 and they shall stand upon an heap4 #jf3jjc3jad ,and it came to pass1 when the people removed from their tents1 to pass over ,jordan1 and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people2 #jf3jjc3jae ,and as they that bare the ark were come unto ,jordan1 and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water1 7for ,jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest17 #jf3jjc3jaf ,that the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heap very far from the city ,adam1 that is beside ,zaretan3 and those that came down toward the sea of the plain1 even the salt sea1 failed1 and were cut off3 and the people passed over right against ,jericho4 #jf3jjc3jag ,and the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of ,jordan1 and all the ,israelites passed over on dry ground1 until all the people were passed clean over ,jordan4 #jf3jjd3jja ,and it came to pass1 when all the people were clean passed over ,jordan1 that the ,,lord spake unto ,joshua1 saying1 #jf3jjd3jjb ,take you twelve men out of the people1 out of every tribe a man1 #jf3jjd3jjc ,and command ye them1 saying1 ,take you hence out of the midst of ,jordan1 out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm1 twelve stones1 and ye shall carry them over with you1 and leave them in the lodging place1 where ye shall lodge this night4 #jf3jjd3jjd ,then ,joshua called the twelve men1 whom he had prepared of the children of ,israel1 out of every tribe a man3 #jf3jjd3jje ,and ,joshua said unto them1 ,pass over before the ark of the ,,lord your ,god into the midst of ,jordan1 and take you up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder1 according unto the number of the tribes of the children of ,israel3 #jf3jjd3jjf ,that this may be a sign among you1 that when your children ask their fathers in time to come1 saying1 ,what mean ye by these stones8 #jf3jjd3jjg ,then ye shall answer them1 ,that the waters of ,jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord2 when it passed over ,jordan1 the waters of ,jordan were cut off3 and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of ,israel for ever4 #jf3jjd3jjh ,and the children of ,israel did so as ,joshua commanded1 and took up twelve stones out of the midst of ,jordan1 as the ,,lord spake unto ,joshua1 according to the number of the tribes of the children of ,israel1 and carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged1 and laid them down there4 #jf3jjd3jji ,and ,joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of ,jordan1 in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood3 and they are there unto this day4 #jf3jjd3jaj ,for the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of ,jordan1 until everything was finished that the ,,lord commanded ,joshua to speak unto the people1 according to all that ,moses commanded ,joshua3 and the people hasted and passed over4 #jf3jjd3jaa ,and it came to pass1 when all the people were clean passed over1 that the ark of the ,,lord passed over1 and the priests1 in the presence of the people4 #jf3jjd3jab ,and the children of ,reuben1 and the children of ,gad1 and half the tribe of ,manasseh1 passed over armed before the children of ,israel1 as ,moses spake unto them3 #jf3jjd3jac ,about forty thousand prepared for war passed over before the ,,lord unto battle1 to the plains of ,jericho4 #jf3jjd3jad ,on that day the ,,lord magnified ,joshua in the sight of all ,israel2 and they feared him1 as they feared ,moses1 all the days of his life4 #jf3jjd3jae ,and the ,,lord spake unto ,joshua1 saying1 #jf3jjd3jaf ,command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony1 that they come up out of ,jordan4 #jf3jjd3jag ,joshua therefore commanded the priests1 saying1 ,come ye up out of ,jordan4 #jf3jjd3jah ,and it came to pass1 when the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord were come up out of the midst of ,jordan1 and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up unto the dry land1 that the waters of ,jordan returned unto their place1 and flowed over all his banks1 as they did before4 #jf3jjd3jai ,and the people came up out of ,jordan on the tenth day of the first month1 and encamped in ,gilgal1 in the east border of ,jericho4 #jf3jjd3jbj ,and those twelve stones1 which they took out of ,jordan1 did ,joshua pitch in ,gilgal4 #jf3jjd3jba ,and he spake unto the children of ,israel1 saying1 ,when your children shall ask their fathers in time to come1 saying1 ,what mean these stones8 #jf3jjd3jbb ,then ye shall let your children know1 saying1 ,israel came over this ,jordan on dry land4 #jf3jjd3jbc ,for the ,,lord your ,god dried up the waters of ,jordan from before you1 until ye were passed over1 as the ,,lord your ,god did to the ,red sea1 which he dried up from before us1 until we were gone over3 #jf3jjd3jbd ,that all the people of the earth might know the hand of the ,,lord1 that it is mighty3 that ye might fear the ,,lord your ,god for ever4 #jf3jje3jja ,and it came to pass1 when all the kings of the ,amorites1 which were on the side of ,jordan westward1 and all the kings of the ,canaanites1 which were by the sea1 heard that the ,,lord had dried up the waters of ,jordan from before the children of ,israel1 until we were passed over1 that their heart melted1 neither was there spirit in them any more1 because of the children of ,israel4 #jf3jje3jjb ,at that time the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,make thee sharp knives1 and circumcise again the children of ,israel the second time4 #jf3jje3jjc ,and ,joshua made him sharp knives1 and circumcised the children of ,israel at the hill of the foreskins4 #jf3jje3jjd ,and this is the cause why ,joshua did circumcise3 ,all the people that came out of ,egypt1 that were males1 even all the men of war1 died in the wilderness by the way1 after they came out of ,egypt4 #jf3jje3jje ,now all the people that came out were circumcised3 but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of ,egypt1 them they had not circumcised4 #jf3jje3jjf ,for the children of ,israel walked forty years in the wilderness1 till all the people that were men of war1 which came out of ,egypt1 were consumed1 because they obeyed not the voice of the ,,lord3 unto whom the ,,lord sware that he would not shew them the land1 which the ,,lord sware unto their fathers that he would give us1 a land that floweth with milk and honey4 #jf3jje3jjg ,and their children1 whom he raised up in their stead1 them ,joshua circumcised3 for they were uncircumcised1 because they had not circumcised them by the way4 #jf3jje3jjh ,and it came to pass1 when they had done circumcising all the people1 that they abode in their places in the camp1 till they were whole4 #jf3jje3jji ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,this day have ,i rolled away the reproach of ,egypt from off you4 ,wherefore the name of the place is called ,gilgal unto this day4 #jf3jje3jaj ,and the children of ,israel encamped in ,gilgal1 and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of ,jericho4 #jf3jje3jaa ,and they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover1 unleavened cakes1 and parched corn in the selfsame day4 #jf3jje3jab ,and the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land2 neither had the children of ,israel manna any more2 but they did eat of the fruit of the land of ,canaan that year4 #jf3jje3jac ,and it came to pass1 when ,joshua was by ,jericho1 that he lifted up his eyes and looked1 and1 behold1 there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand3 and ,joshua went unto him1 and said unto him1 ,art thou for us1 or for our adversaries8 #jf3jje3jad ,and he said1 ,nay2 but as captain of the host of the ,,lord am ,i now come4 ,and ,joshua fell on his face to the earth1 and did worship1 and said unto him1 ,what saith my ,lord unto his servant8 #jf3jje3jae ,and the captain of the ,,lord's host said unto ,joshua1 ,loose thy shoe from off thy foot2 for the place whereon thou standest is holy4 ,and ,joshua did so4 #jf3jjf3jja ,now ,jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of ,israel3 none went out1 and none came in4 #jf3jjf3jjb ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,see1 ,i have given into thine hand ,jericho1 and the king thereof1 and the mighty men of valour4 #jf3jjf3jjc ,and ye shall compass the city1 all ye men of war1 and go round about the city once4 ,thus shalt thou do six days4 #jf3jjf3jjd ,and seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns3 and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times1 and the priests shall blow with the trumpets4 #jf3jjf3jje ,and it shall come to pass1 that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn1 and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet1 all the people shall shout with a great shout2 and the wall of the city shall fall down flat1 and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him4 #jf3jjf3jjf ,and ,joshua the son of ,nun called the priests1 and said unto them1 ,take up the ark of the covenant1 and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the ,,lord4 #jf3jjf3jjg ,and he said unto the people1 ,pass on1 and compass the city1 and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the ,,lord4 #jf3jjf3jjh ,and it came to pass1 when ,joshua had spoken unto the people1 that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the ,,lord1 and blew with the trumpets3 and the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord followed them4 #jf3jjf3jji ,and the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets1 and the rereward came after the ark1 the priests going on1 and blowing with the trumpets4 #jf3jjf3jaj ,and ,joshua had commanded the people1 saying1 ,ye shall not shout1 nor make any noise with your voice1 neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth1 until the day ,i bid you shout2 then shall ye shout4 #jf3jjf3jaa ,so the ark of the ,,lord compassed the city1 going about it once3 and they came into the camp1 and lodged in the camp4 #jf3jjf3jab ,and ,joshua rose early in the morning1 and the priests took up the ark of the ,,lord4 #jf3jjf3jac ,and seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the ,,lord went on continually1 and blew with the trumpets3 and the armed men went before them2 but the rereward came after the ark of the ,,lord1 the priests going on1 and blowing with the trumpets4 #jf3jjf3jad ,and the second day they compassed the city once1 and returned into the camp3 so they did six days4 #jf3jjf3jae ,and it came to pass on the seventh day1 that they rose early about the dawning of the day1 and compassed the city after the same manner seven times3 only on that day they compassed the city seven times4 #jf3jjf3jaf ,and it came to pass at the seventh time1 when the priests blew with the trumpets1 ,joshua said unto the people1 ,shout2 for the ,,lord hath given you the city4 #jf3jjf3jag ,and the city shall be accursed1 even it1 and all that are therein1 to the ,,lord3 only ,rahab the harlot shall live1 she and all that are with her in the house1 because she hid the messengers that we sent4 #jf3jjf3jah ,and ye1 in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing1 lest ye make yourselves accursed1 when ye take of the accursed thing1 and make the camp of ,israel a curse1 and trouble it4 #jf3jjf3jai ,but all the silver1 and gold1 and vessels of brass and iron1 are consecrated unto the ,,lord3 they shall come into the treasury of the ,,lord4 #jf3jjf3jbj ,so the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets3 and it came to pass1 when the people heard the sound of the trumpet1 and the people shouted with a great shout1 that the wall fell down flat1 so that the people went up into the city1 every man straight before him1 and they took the city4 #jf3jjf3jba ,and they utterly destroyed all that was in the city1 both man and woman1 young and old1 and ox1 and sheep1 and ass1 with the edge of the sword4 #jf3jjf3jbb ,but ,joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country1 ,go into the harlot's house1 and bring out thence the woman1 and all that she hath1 as ye sware unto her4 #jf3jjf3jbc ,and the young men that were spies went in1 and brought out ,rahab1 and her father1 and her mother1 and her brethren1 and all that she had2 and they brought out all her kindred1 and left them without the camp of ,israel4 #jf3jjf3jbd ,and they burnt the city with fire1 and all that was therein3 only the silver1 and the gold1 and the vessels of brass and of iron1 they put into the treasury of the house of the ,,lord4 #jf3jjf3jbe ,and ,joshua saved ,rahab the harlot alive1 and her father's household1 and all that she had2 and she dwelleth in ,israel even unto this day2 because she hid the messengers1 which ,joshua sent to spy out ,jericho4 #jf3jjf3jbf ,and ,joshua adjured them at that time1 saying1 ,cursed be the man before the ,,lord1 that riseth up and buildeth this city ,jericho3 he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn1 and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it4 #jf3jjf3jbg ,so the ,,lord was with ,joshua2 and his fame was noised throughout all the country4 #jf3jjg3jja ,but the children of ,israel committed a trespass in the accursed thing3 for ,achan1 the son of ,carmi1 the son of ,zabdi1 the son of ,zerah1 of the tribe of ,judah1 took of the accursed thing3 and the anger of the ,,lord was kindled against the children of ,israel4 #jf3jjg3jjb ,and ,joshua sent men from ,jericho to ,ai1 which is beside ,bethaven1 on the east of ,bethel1 and spake unto them1 saying1 ,go up and view the country4 ,and the men went up and viewed ,ai4 #jf3jjg3jjc ,and they returned to ,joshua1 and said unto him1 ,let not all the people go up2 but let about two or three thousand men go up and smite ,ai2 and make not all the people to labour thither2 for they are but few4 #jf3jjg3jjd ,so there went up thither of the people about three thousand men3 and they fled before the men of ,ai4 #jf3jjg3jje ,and the men of ,ai smote of them about thirty and six men3 for they chased them from before the gate even unto ,shebarim1 and smote them in the going down3 wherefore the hearts of the people melted1 and became as water4 #jf3jjg3jjf ,and ,joshua rent his clothes1 and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of the ,,lord until the eventide1 he and the elders of ,israel1 and put dust upon their heads4 #jf3jjg3jjg ,and ,joshua said1 ,alas1 ,o ,,lord ,god1 wherefore hast thou at all brought this people over ,jordan1 to deliver us into the hand of the ,amorites1 to destroy us8 would to ,god we had been content1 and dwelt on the other side ,jordan6 #jf3jjg3jjh ,o ,,lord1 what shall ,i say1 when ,israel turneth their backs before their enemies6 #jf3jjg3jji ,for the ,canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear of it1 and shall environ us round1 and cut off our name from the earth3 and what wilt thou do unto thy great name8 #jf3jjg3jaj ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,get thee up2 wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face8 #jf3jjg3jaa ,israel hath sinned1 and they have also transgressed my covenant which ,i commanded them3 for they have even taken of the accursed thing1 and have also stolen1 and dissembled also1 and they have put it even among their own stuff4 #jf3jjg3jab ,therefore the children of ,israel could not stand before their enemies1 but turned their backs before their enemies1 because they were accursed3 neither will ,i be with you any more1 except ye destroy the accursed from among you4 #jf3jjg3jac ,up1 sanctify the people1 and say1 ,sanctify yourselves against to morrow3 for thus saith the ,,lord ,god of ,israel1 ,there is an accursed thing in the midst of thee1 ,o ,israel3 thou canst not stand before thine enemies1 until ye take away the accursed thing from among you4 #jf3jjg3jad ,in the morning therefore ye shall be brought according to your tribes3 and it shall be1 that the tribe which the ,,lord taketh shall come according to the families thereof2 and the family which the ,,lord shall take shall come by households2 and the household which the ,,lord shall take shall come man by man4 #jf3jjg3jae ,and it shall be1 that he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire1 he and all that he hath3 because he hath transgressed the covenant of the ,,lord1 and because he hath wrought folly in ,israel4 #jf3jjg3jaf ,so ,joshua rose up early in the morning1 and brought ,israel by their tribes2 and the tribe of ,judah was taken3 #jf3jjg3jag ,and he brought the family of ,judah2 and he took the family of the ,zarhites3 and he brought the family of the ,zarhites man by man2 and ,zabdi was taken3 #jf3jjg3jah ,and he brought his household man by man2 and ,achan1 the son of ,carmi1 the son of ,zabdi1 the son of ,zerah1 of the tribe of ,judah1 was taken4 #jf3jjg3jai ,and ,joshua said unto ,achan1 ,my son1 give1 ,i pray thee1 glory to the ,,lord ,god of ,israel1 and make confession unto him2 and tell me now what thou hast done2 hide it not from me4 #jf3jjg3jbj ,and ,achan answered ,joshua1 and said1 ,indeed ,i have sinned against the ,,lord ,god of ,israel1 and thus and thus have ,i done3 #jf3jjg3jba ,when ,i saw among the spoils a goodly ,babylonish garment1 and two hundred shekels of silver1 and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight1 then ,i coveted them1 and took them2 and1 behold1 they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent1 and the silver under it4 #jf3jjg3jbb ,so ,joshua sent messengers1 and they ran unto the tent2 and1 behold1 it was hid in his tent1 and the silver under it4 #jf3jjg3jbc ,and they took them out of the midst of the tent1 and brought them unto ,joshua1 and unto all the children of ,israel1 and laid them out before the ,,lord4 #jf3jjg3jbd ,and ,joshua1 and all ,israel with him1 took ,achan the son of ,zerah1 and the silver1 and the garment1 and the wedge of gold1 and his sons1 and his daughters1 and his oxen1 and his asses1 and his sheep1 and his tent1 and all that he had3 and they brought them unto the valley of ,achor4 #jf3jjg3jbe ,and ,joshua said1 ,why hast thou troubled us8 the ,,lord shall trouble thee this day4 ,and all ,israel stoned him with stones1 and burned them with fire1 after they had stoned them with stones4 #jf3jjg3jbf ,and they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day4 ,so the ,,lord turned from the fierceness of his anger4 ,wherefore the name of that place was called1 ,the valley of ,achor1 unto this day4 #jf3jjh3jja ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,fear not1 neither be thou dismayed3 take all the people of war with thee1 and arise1 go up to ,ai3 see1 ,i have given into thy hand the king of ,ai1 and his people1 and his city1 and his land3 #jf3jjh3jjb ,and thou shalt do to ,ai and her king as thou didst unto ,jericho and her king3 only the spoil thereof1 and the cattle thereof1 shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves3 lay thee an ambush for the city behind it4 #jf3jjh3jjc ,so ,joshua arose1 and all the people of war1 to go up against ,ai3 and ,joshua chose out thirty thousand mighty men of valour1 and sent them away by night4 #jf3jjh3jjd ,and he commanded them1 saying1 ,behold1 ye shall lie in wait against the city1 even behind the city3 go not very far from the city1 but be ye all ready3 #jf3jjh3jje ,and ,i1 and all the people that are with me1 will approach unto the city3 and it shall come to pass1 when they come out against us1 as at the first1 that we will flee before them1 #jf3jjh3jjf 7,for they will come out after us7 till we have drawn them from the city2 for they will say1 ,they flee before us1 as at the first3 therefore we will flee before them4 #jf3jjh3jjg ,then ye shall rise up from the ambush1 and seize upon the city3 for the ,,lord your ,god will deliver it into your hand4 #jf3jjh3jjh ,and it shall be1 when ye have taken the city1 that ye shall set the city on fire3 according to the commandment of the ,,lord shall ye do4 ,see1 ,i have commanded you4 #jf3jjh3jji ,joshua therefore sent them forth3 and they went to lie in ambush1 and abode between ,bethel and ,ai1 on the west side of ,ai3 but ,joshua lodged that night among the people4 #jf3jjh3jaj ,and ,joshua rose up early in the morning1 and numbered the people1 and went up1 he and the elders of ,israel1 before the people to ,ai4 #jf3jjh3jaa ,and all the people1 even the people of war that were with him1 went up1 and drew nigh1 and came before the city1 and pitched on the north side of ,ai3 now there was a valley between them and ,ai4 #jf3jjh3jab ,and he took about five thousand men1 and set them to lie in ambush between ,bethel and ,ai1 on the west side of the city4 #jf3jjh3jac ,and when they had set the people1 even all the host that was on the north of the city1 and their liers in wait on the west of the city1 ,joshua went that night into the midst of the valley4 #jf3jjh3jad ,and it came to pass1 when the king of ,ai saw it1 that they hasted and rose up early1 and the men of the city went out against ,israel to battle1 he and all his people1 at a time appointed1 before the plain2 but he wist not that there were liers in ambush against him behind the city4 #jf3jjh3jae ,and ,joshua and all ,israel made as if they were beaten before them1 and fled by the way of the wilderness4 #jf3jjh3jaf ,and all the people that were in ,ai were called together to pursue after them3 and they pursued after ,joshua1 and were drawn away from the city4 #jf3jjh3jag ,and there was not a man left in ,ai or ,bethel1 that went not out after ,israel3 and they left the city open1 and pursued after ,israel4 #jf3jjh3jah ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward ,ai2 for ,i will give it into thine hand4 ,and ,joshua stretched out the spear that he had in his hand toward the city4 #jf3jjh3jai ,and the ambush arose quickly out of their place1 and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand3 and they entered into the city1 and took it1 and hasted and set the city on fire4 #jf3jjh3jbj ,and when the men of ,ai looked behind them1 they saw1 and1 behold1 the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven1 and they had no power to flee this way or that way3 and the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers4 #jf3jjh3jba ,and when ,joshua and all ,israel saw that the ambush had taken the city1 and that the smoke of the city ascended1 then they turned again1 and slew the men of ,ai4 #jf3jjh3jbb ,and the other issued out of the city against them2 so they were in the midst of ,israel1 some on this side1 and some on that side3 and they smote them1 so that they let none of them remain or escape4 #jf3jjh3jbc ,and the king of ,ai they took alive1 and brought him to ,joshua4 #jf3jjh3jbd ,and it came to pass1 when ,israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of ,ai in the field1 in the wilderness wherein they chased them1 and when they were all fallen on the edge of the sword1 until they were consumed1 that all the ,israelites returned unto ,ai1 and smote it with the edge of the sword4 #jf3jjh3jbe ,and so it was1 that all that fell that day1 both of men and women1 were twelve thousand1 even all the men of ,ai4 #jf3jjh3jbf ,for ,joshua drew not his hand back1 wherewith he stretched out the spear1 until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of ,ai4 #jf3jjh3jbg ,only the cattle and the spoil of that city ,israel took for a prey unto themselves1 according unto the word of the ,,lord which he commanded ,joshua4 #jf3jjh3jbh ,and ,joshua burnt ,ai1 and made it an heap for ever1 even a desolation unto this day4 #jf3jjh3jbi ,and the king of ,ai he hanged on a tree until eventide3 and as soon as the sun was down1 ,joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree1 and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city1 and raise thereon a great heap of stones1 that remaineth unto this day4 #jf3jjh3jcj ,then ,joshua built an altar unto the ,,lord ,god of ,israel in mount ,ebal1 #jf3jjh3jca ,as ,moses the servant of the ,,lord commanded the children of ,israel1 as it is written in the book of the law of ,moses1 an altar of whole stones1 over which no man hath lift up any iron3 and they offered thereon burnt offerings unto the ,,lord1 and sacrificed peace offerings4 #jf3jjh3jcb ,and he wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law of ,moses1 which he wrote in the presence of the children of ,israel4 #jf3jjh3jcc ,and all ,israel1 and their elders1 and officers1 and their judges1 stood on this side the ark and on that side before the priests the ,levites1 which bare the ark of the covenant of the ,,lord1 as well the stranger1 as he that was born among them2 half of them over against mount ,gerizim1 and half of them over against mount ,ebal2 as ,moses the servant of the ,,lord had commanded before1 that they should bless the people of ,israel4 #jf3jjh3jcd ,and afterward he read all the words of the law1 the blessings and cursings1 according to all that is written in the book of the law4 #jf3jjh3jce ,there was not a word of all that ,moses commanded1 which ,joshua read not before all the congregation of ,israel1 with the women1 and the little ones1 and the strangers that were conversant among them4 #jf3jji3jja ,and it came to pass1 when all the kings which were on this side ,jordan1 in the hills1 and in the valleys1 and in all the coasts of the great sea over against ,lebanon1 the ,hittite1 and the ,amorite1 the ,canaanite1 the ,perizzite1 the ,hivite1 and the ,jebusite1 heard thereof2 #jf3jji3jjb ,that they gathered themselves together1 to fight with ,joshua and with ,israel1 with one accord4 #jf3jji3jjc ,and when the inhabitants of ,gibeon heard what ,joshua had done unto ,jericho and to ,ai1 #jf3jji3jjd ,they did work wilily1 and went and made as if they had been ambassadors1 and took old sacks upon their asses1 and wine bottles1 old1 and rent1 and bound up2 #jf3jji3jje ,and old shoes and clouted upon their feet1 and old garments upon them2 and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy4 #jf3jji3jjf ,and they went to ,joshua unto the camp at ,gilgal1 and said unto him1 and to the men of ,israel1 ,we be come from a far country3 now therefore make ye a league with us4 #jf3jji3jjg ,and the men of ,israel said unto the ,hivites1 ,peradventure ye dwell among us2 and how shall we make a league with you8 #jf3jji3jjh ,and they said unto ,joshua1 ,we are thy servants4 ,and ,joshua said unto them1 ,who are ye8 and from whence come ye8 #jf3jji3jji ,and they said unto him1 ,from a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of the ,,lord thy ,god3 for we have heard the fame of him1 and all that he did in ,egypt1 #jf3jji3jaj ,and all that he did to the two kings of the ,amorites1 that were beyond ,jordan1 to ,sihon king of ,heshbon1 and to ,og king of ,bashan1 which was at ,ashtaroth4 #jf3jji3jaa ,wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us1 saying1 ,take victuals with you for the journey1 and go to meet them1 and say unto them1 ,we are your servants3 therefore now make ye a league with us4 #jf3jji3jab ,this our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you2 but now1 behold1 it is dry1 and it is mouldy3 #jf3jji3jac ,and these bottles of wine1 which we filled1 were new2 and1 behold1 they be rent3 and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey4 #jf3jji3jad ,and the men took of their victuals1 and asked not counsel at the mouth of the ,,lord4 #jf3jji3jae ,and ,joshua made peace with them1 and made a league with them1 to let them live3 and the princes of the congregation sware unto them4 #jf3jji3jaf ,and it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a league with them1 that they heard that they were their neighbours1 and that they dwelt among them4 #jf3jji3jag ,and the children of ,israel journeyed1 and came unto their cities on the third day4 ,now their cities were ,gibeon1 and ,chephirah1 and ,beeroth1 and ,kirjathjearim4 #jf3jji3jah ,and the children of ,israel smote them not1 because the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by the ,,lord ,god of ,israel4 ,and all the congregation murmured against the princes4 #jf3jji3jai ,but all the princes said unto all the congregation1 ,we have sworn unto them by the ,,lord ,god of ,israel3 now therefore we may not touch them4 #jf3jji3jbj ,this we will do to them2 we will even let them live1 lest wrath be upon us1 because of the oath which we sware unto them4 #jf3jji3jba ,and the princes said unto them1 ,let them live2 but let them be hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation2 as the princes had promised them4 #jf3jji3jbb ,and ,joshua called for them1 and he spake unto them1 saying1 ,wherefore have ye beguiled us1 saying1 ,we are very far from you2 when ye dwell among us8 #jf3jji3jbc ,now therefore ye are cursed1 and there shall none of you be freed from being bondmen1 and hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my ,god4 #jf3jji3jbd ,and they answered ,joshua1 and said1 ,because it was certainly told thy servants1 how that the ,,lord thy ,god commanded his servant ,moses to give you all the land1 and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you1 therefore we were sore afraid of our lives because of you1 and have done this thing4 #jf3jji3jbe ,and now1 behold1 we are in thine hand3 as it seemeth good and right unto thee to do unto us1 do4 #jf3jji3jbf ,and so did he unto them1 and delivered them out of the hand of the children of ,israel1 that they slew them not4 #jf3jji3jbg ,and ,joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation1 and for the altar of the ,,lord1 even unto this day1 in the place which he should choose4 #jf3jaj3jja ,now it came to pass1 when ,adonizedec king of ,jerusalem had heard how ,joshua had taken ,ai1 and had utterly destroyed it2 as he had done to ,jericho and her king1 so he had done to ,ai and her king2 and how the inhabitants of ,gibeon had made peace with ,israel1 and were among them2 #jf3jaj3jjb ,that they feared greatly1 because ,gibeon was a great city1 as one of the royal cities1 and because it was greater than ,ai1 and all the men thereof were mighty4 #jf3jaj3jjc ,wherefore ,adonizedec king of ,jerusalem1 sent unto ,hoham king of ,hebron1 and unto ,piram king of ,jarmuth1 and unto ,japhia king of ,lachish1 and unto ,debir king of ,eglon1 saying1 #jf3jaj3jjd ,come up unto me1 and help me1 that we may smite ,gibeon3 for it hath made peace with ,joshua and with the children of ,israel4 #jf3jaj3jje ,therefore the five kings of the ,amorites1 the king of ,jerusalem1 the king of ,hebron1 the king of ,jarmuth1 the king of ,lachish1 the king of ,eglon1 gathered themselves together1 and went up1 they and all their hosts1 and encamped before ,gibeon1 and made war against it4 #jf3jaj3jjf ,and the men of ,gibeon sent unto ,joshua to the camp to ,gilgal1 saying1 ,slack not thy hand from thy servants2 come up to us quickly1 and save us1 and help us3 for all the kings of the ,amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together against us4 #jf3jaj3jjg ,so ,joshua ascended from ,gilgal1 he1 and all the people of war with him1 and all the mighty men of valour4 #jf3jaj3jjh ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,fear them not3 for ,i have delivered them into thine hand2 there shall not a man of them stand before thee4 #jf3jaj3jji ,joshua therefore came unto them suddenly1 and went up from ,gilgal all night4 #jf3jaj3jaj ,and the ,,lord discomfited them before ,israel1 and slew them with a great slaughter at ,gibeon1 and chased them along the way that goeth up to ,bethhoron1 and smote them to ,azekah1 and unto ,makkedah4 #jf3jaj3jaa ,and it came to pass1 as they fled from before ,israel1 and were in the going down to ,bethhoron1 that the ,,lord cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto ,azekah1 and they died3 they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of ,israel slew with the sword4 #jf3jaj3jab ,then spake ,joshua to the ,,lord in the day when the ,,lord delivered up the ,amorites before the children of ,israel1 and he said in the sight of ,israel1 ,sun1 stand thou still upon ,gibeon2 and thou1 ,moon1 in the valley of ,ajalon4 #jf3jaj3jac ,and the sun stood still1 and the moon stayed1 until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies4 ,is not this written in the book of ,jasher8 ,so the sun stood still in the midst of heaven1 and hasted not to go down about a whole day4 #jf3jaj3jad ,and there was no day like that before it or after it1 that the ,,lord hearkened unto the voice of a man3 for the ,,lord fought for ,israel4 #jf3jaj3jae ,and ,joshua returned1 and all ,israel with him1 unto the camp to ,gilgal4 #jf3jaj3jaf ,but these five kings fled1 and hid themselves in a cave at ,makkedah4 #jf3jaj3jag ,and it was told ,joshua1 saying1 ,the five kings are found hid in a cave at ,makkedah4 #jf3jaj3jah ,and ,joshua said1 ,roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave1 and set men by it for to keep them3 #jf3jaj3jai ,and stay ye not1 but pursue after your enemies1 and smite the hindmost of them2 suffer them not to enter into their cities3 for the ,,lord your ,god hath delivered them into your hand4 #jf3jaj3jbj ,and it came to pass1 when ,joshua and the children of ,israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter1 till they were consumed1 that the rest which remained of them entered into fenced cities4 #jf3jaj3jba ,and all the people returned to the camp to ,joshua at ,makkedah in peace3 none moved his tongue against any of the children of ,israel4 #jf3jaj3jbb ,then said ,joshua1 ,open the mouth of the cave1 and bring out those five kings unto me out of the cave4 #jf3jaj3jbc ,and they did so1 and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave1 the king of ,jerusalem1 the king of ,hebron1 the king of ,jarmuth1 the king of ,lachish1 and the king of ,eglon4 #jf3jaj3jbd ,and it came to pass1 when they brought out those kings unto ,joshua1 that ,joshua called for all the men of ,israel1 and said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him1 ,come near1 put your feet upon the necks of these kings4 ,and they came near1 and put their feet upon the necks of them4 #jf3jaj3jbe ,and ,joshua said unto them1 ,fear not1 nor be dismayed1 be strong and of good courage3 for thus shall the ,,lord do to all your enemies against whom ye fight4 #jf3jaj3jbf ,and afterward ,joshua smote them1 and slew them1 and hanged them on five trees3 and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening4 #jf3jaj3jbg ,and it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun1 that ,joshua commanded1 and they took them down off the trees1 and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hid1 and laid great stones in the cave's mouth1 which remain until this very day4 #jf3jaj3jbh ,and that day ,joshua took ,makkedah1 and smote it with the edge of the sword1 and the king thereof he utterly destroyed1 them1 and all the souls that were therein2 he let none remain3 and he did to the king of ,makkedah as he did unto the king of ,jericho4 #jf3jaj3jbi ,then ,joshua passed from ,makkedah1 and all ,israel with him1 unto ,libnah1 and fought against ,libnah3 #jf3jaj3jcj ,and the ,,lord delivered it also1 and the king thereof1 into the hand of ,israel2 and he smote it with the edge of the sword1 and all the souls that were therein2 he let none remain in it2 but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of ,jericho4 #jf3jaj3jca ,and ,joshua passed from ,libnah1 and all ,israel with him1 unto ,lachish1 and encamped against it1 and fought against it3 #jf3jaj3jcb ,and the ,,lord delivered ,lachish into the hand of ,israel1 which took it on the second day1 and smote it with the edge of the sword1 and all the souls that were therein1 according to all that he had done to ,libnah4 #jf3jaj3jcc ,then ,horam king of ,gezer came up to help ,lachish2 and ,joshua smote him and his people1 until he had left him none remaining4 #jf3jaj3jcd ,and from ,lachish ,joshua passed unto ,eglon1 and all ,israel with him2 and they encamped against it1 and fought against it3 #jf3jaj3jce ,and they took it on that day1 and smote it with the edge of the sword1 and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed that day1 according to all that he had done to ,lachish4 #jf3jaj3jcf ,and ,joshua went up from ,eglon1 and all ,israel with him1 unto ,hebron2 and they fought against it3 #jf3jaj3jcg ,and they took it1 and smote it with the edge of the sword1 and the king thereof1 and all the cities thereof1 and all the souls that were therein2 he left none remaining1 according to all that he had done to ,eglon2 but destroyed it utterly1 and all the souls that were therein4 #jf3jaj3jch ,and ,joshua returned1 and all ,israel with him1 to ,debir2 and fought against it3 #jf3jaj3jci ,and he took it1 and the king thereof1 and all the cities thereof2 and they smote them with the edge of the sword1 and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein2 he left none remaining3 as he had done to ,hebron1 so he did to ,debir1 and to the king thereof2 as he had done also to ,libnah1 and to her king4 #jf3jaj3jdj ,so ,joshua smote all the country of the hills1 and of the south1 and of the vale1 and of the springs1 and all their kings3 he left none remaining1 but utterly destroyed all that breathed1 as the ,,lord ,god of ,israel commanded4 #jf3jaj3jda ,and ,joshua smote them from ,kadeshbarnea even unto ,gaza1 and all the country of ,goshen1 even unto ,gibeon4 #jf3jaj3jdb ,and all these kings and their land did ,joshua take at one time1 because the ,,lord ,god of ,israel fought for ,israel4 #jf3jaj3jdc ,and ,joshua returned1 and all ,israel with him1 unto the camp to ,gilgal4 #jf3jaa3jja ,and it came to pass1 when ,jabin king of ,hazor had heard those things1 that he sent to ,jobab king of ,madon1 and to the king of ,shimron1 and to the king of ,achshaph1 #jf3jaa3jjb ,and to the kings that were on the north of the mountains1 and of the plains south of ,chinneroth1 and in the valley1 and in the borders of ,dor on the west1 #jf3jaa3jjc ,and to the ,canaanite on the east and on the west1 and to the ,amorite1 and the ,hittite1 and the ,perizzite1 and the ,jebusite in the mountains1 and to the ,hivite under ,hermon in the land of ,mizpeh4 #jf3jaa3jjd ,and they went out1 they and all their hosts with them1 much people1 even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude1 with horses and chariots very many4 #jf3jaa3jje ,and when all these kings were met together1 they came and pitched together at the waters of ,merom1 to fight against ,israel4 #jf3jaa3jjf ,and the ,,lord said unto ,joshua1 ,be not afraid because of them3 for to morrow about this time will ,i deliver them up all slain before ,israel3 thou shalt hough their horses1 and burn their chariots with fire4 #jf3jaa3jjg ,so ,joshua came1 and all the people of war with him1 against them by the waters of ,merom suddenly2 and they fell upon them4 #jf3jaa3jjh ,and the ,,lord delivered them into the hand of ,israel1 who smote them1 and chased them unto great ,zidon1 and unto ,misrephothmaim1 and unto the valley of ,mizpeh eastward2 and they smote them1 until they left them none remaining4 #jf3jaa3jji ,and ,joshua did unto them as the ,,lord bade him3 he houghed their horses1 and burnt their chariots with fire4 #jf3jaa3jaj ,and ,joshua at that time turned back1 and took ,hazor1 and smote the king thereof with the sword3 for ,hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms4 #jf3jaa3jaa ,and they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword1 utterly destroying them3 there was not any left to breathe3 and he burnt ,hazor with fire4 #jf3jaa3jab ,and all the cities of those kings1 and all the kings of them1 did ,joshua take1 and smote them with the edge of the sword1 and he utterly destroyed them1 as ,moses the servant of the ,,lord commanded4 #jf3jaa3jac ,but as for the cities that stood still in their strength1 ,israel burned none of them1 save ,hazor only2 that did ,joshua burn4 #jf3jaa3jad ,and all the spoil of these cities1 and the cattle1 the children of ,israel took for a prey unto themselves2 but every man they smote with the edge of the sword1 until they had destroyed them1 neither left they any to breathe4 #jf3jaa3jae ,as the ,,lord commanded ,moses his servant1 so did ,moses command ,joshua1 and so did ,joshua2 he left nothing undone of all that the ,,lord commanded ,moses4 #jf3jaa3jaf ,so ,joshua took all that land1 the hills1 and all the south country1 and all the land of ,goshen1 and the valley1 and the plain1 and the mountain of ,israel1 and the valley of the same2 #jf3jaa3jag ,even from the mount ,halak1 that goeth up to ,seir1 even unto ,baalgad in the valley of ,lebanon under mount ,hermon3 and all their kings he took1 and smote them1 and slew them4 #jf3jaa3jah ,joshua made war a long time with all those kings4 #jf3jaa3jai ,there was not a city that made peace with the children of ,israel1 save the ,hivites the inhabitants of ,gibeon3 all other they took in battle4 #jf3jaa3jbj ,for it was of the ,,lord to harden their hearts1 that they should come against ,israel in battle1 that he might destroy them utterly1 and that they might have no favour1 but that he might destroy them1 as the ,,lord commanded ,moses4 #jf3jaa3jba ,and at that time came ,joshua1 and cut off the ,anakims from the mountains1 from ,hebron1 from ,debir1 from ,anab1 and from all the mountains of ,judah1 and from all the mountains of ,israel3 ,joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities4 #jf3jaa3jbb ,there was none of the ,anakims left in the land of the children of ,israel3 only in ,gaza1 in ,gath1 and in ,ashdod1 there remained4 #jf3jaa3jbc ,so ,joshua took the whole land1 according to all that the ,,lord said unto ,moses2 and ,joshua gave it for an inheritance unto ,israel according to their divisions by their tribes4 ,and the land rested from war4 #jf3jab3jja ,now these are the kings of the land1 which the children of ,israel smote1 and possessed their land on the other side ,jordan toward the rising of the sun1 from the river ,arnon unto mount ,hermon1 and all the plain on the east3 #jf3jab3jjb ,sihon king of the ,amorites1 who dwelt in ,heshbon1 and ruled from ,aroer1 which is upon the bank of the river ,arnon1 and from the middle of the river1 and from half ,gilead1 even unto the river ,jabbok1 which is the border of the children of ,ammon2 #jf3jab3jjc ,and from the plain to the sea of ,chinneroth on the east1 and unto the sea of the plain1 even the salt sea on the east1 the way to ,bethjeshimoth2 and from the south1 under ,ashdothpisgah3 #jf3jab3jjd ,and the coast of ,og king of ,bashan1 which was of the remnant of the giants1 that dwelt at ,ashtaroth and at ,edrei1 #jf3jab3jje ,and reigned in mount ,hermon1 and in ,salcah1 and in all ,bashan1 unto the border of the ,geshurites and the ,maachathites1 and half ,gilead1 the border of ,sihon king of ,heshbon4 #jf3jab3jjf ,them did ,moses the servant of the ,,lord and the children of ,israel smite3 and ,moses the servant of the ,,lord gave it for a possession unto the ,reubenites1 and the ,gadites1 and the half tribe of ,manasseh4 #jf3jab3jjg ,and these are the kings of the country which ,joshua and the children of ,israel smote on this side ,jordan on the west1 from ,baalgad in the valley of ,lebanon even unto the mount ,halak1 that goeth up to ,seir2 which ,joshua gave unto the tribes of ,israel for a possession according to their divisions2 #jf3jab3jjh ,in the mountains1 and in the valleys1 and in the plains1 and in the springs1 and in the wilderness1 and in the south country2 the ,hittites1 the ,amorites1 and the ,canaanites1 the ,perizzites1 the ,hivites1 and the ,jebusites3 #jf3jab3jji ,the king of ,jericho1 one2 the king of ,ai1 which is beside ,bethel1 one2 #jf3jab3jaj ,the king of ,jerusalem1 one2 the king of ,hebron1 one2 #jf3jab3jaa ,the king of ,jarmuth1 one2 the king of ,lachish1 one2

the king of the nations of ,gilgal1 one2 #jf3jab3jbd ,the king of ,tirzah1 one3 all the kings thirty and one4 #jf3jac3jja ,now ,joshua was old and stricken in years2 and the ,,lord said unto him1 ,thou art old and stricken in years1 and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed4 #jf3jac3jjb ,this is the land that yet remaineth3 all the borders of the ,philistines1 and all ,geshuri1 #jf3jac3jjc ,from ,sihor1 which is before ,egypt1 even unto the borders of ,ekron northward1 which is counted to the ,canaanite3 five lords of the ,philistines2 the ,gazathites1 and the ,ashdothites1

for an inheritance1 as ,i have commanded thee4 #jf3jac3jjg ,now therefore divide this land for an inheritance unto the nine tribes1 and the half tribe of ,manasseh1 #jf3jac3jjh ,with whom the ,reubenites and the ,gadites have received their inheritance1 which ,moses gave them1 beyond ,jordan eastward1 even as ,moses the servant of the ,,lord gave them2 #jf3jac3jji ,from ,aroer1 that is

#jf3jac3jab ,all the kingdom of ,og in ,bashan1 which reigned in ,ashtaroth and in ,edrei1 who remained of the remnant of the giants3 for these did ,moses smite1 and cast them out4 #jf3jac3jac ,nevertheless the children of ,israel expelled not the ,geshurites1 nor the ,maachathites3 but the ,geshurites and the ,maachathites dwell among the ,israelites until this day4 #jf3jac3jad ,only unto the tribes of ,levi he gave none inheritance2 the sacrifices of the ,,lord ,god of ,israel made by fire are their inheritance1 as he said unto them4 #jf3jac3jae ,and ,moses gave unto the tribe of the children of ,reuben inheritance according to their families4 #jf3jac3jaf ,and their coast was from ,aroer1 that is on the bank of the river ,arnon1 and the city that is in the midst of the river1 and

plain1 and all the kingdom of ,sihon king of the ,amorites1 which reigned in ,heshbon1 whom ,moses smote with the princes of ,midian1 ,evi1 and ,rekem1 and ,zur1 and ,hur1 and ,reba1 which were dukes of ,sihon1 dwelling in the country4 #jf3jac3jbb ,balaam also the son of ,beor1 the soothsayer1 did the children of ,israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them4 #jf3jac3jbc ,and the border of the children of ,reuben was ,jordan1 and the border thereof4 ,this was the inheritance of the children of ,reuben after their families1 the cities and the villages thereof4 #jf3jac3jbd ,and ,moses gave inheritance unto the tribe of ,gad1 even unto the children of ,gad according to their families4 #jf3jac3jbe ,and their coast was ,jazer1 and all the cities of ,gilead1 and half the land of the children of ,ammon1 unto ,aroer that is before ,rabbah2 #jf3jac3jbf ,and from ,heshbon unto ,ramathmizpeh1 and ,betonim2 and from ,mahanaim unto the border of ,debir2 #jf3jac3jbg ,and in the valley1 ,betharam1 and ,bethnimrah1 and ,succoth1 and ,zaphon1 the rest of the kingdom of ,sihon king of ,heshbon1 ,jordan and his border1 even unto the edge of the sea of ,chinnereth on the other side ,jordan eastward4 #jf3jac3jbh ,this is the inheritance of the children of ,gad after their families1 the cities1 and their villages4 #jf3jac3jbi ,and ,moses gave inheritance unto the half tribe of ,manasseh3 and this was the possession of the half tribe of the children of ,manasseh by their families4 #jf3jac3jcj ,and their coast was from ,mahanaim1 all ,bashan1 all the kingdom of ,og king of ,bashan1 and all the towns of ,jair1 which are in ,bashan1 threescore cities3 #jf3jac3jca ,and half ,gilead1 and ,ashtaroth1 and ,edrei1 cities of the kingdom of ,og in ,bashan1 were pertaining unto the children of ,machir the son of ,manasseh1 even to the one half of the children of ,machir by their families4 #jf3jac3jcb ,these are the countries which ,moses did distribute for inheritance in the plains of ,moab1 on the other side ,jordan1 by ,jericho1 eastward4 #jf3jac3jcc ,but unto the tribe of ,levi ,moses gave not any inheritance3 the ,,lord ,god of ,israel was their inheritance1 as he said unto them4 #jf3jad3jja ,and these are the countries which the children of ,israel inherited in the land of ,canaan1 which ,eleazar the priest1 and ,joshua the son of ,nun1 and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of ,israel1 distributed for inheritance to them4 #jf3jad3jjb ,by lot was their inheritance1 as the ,,lord commanded by the hand of ,moses1 for the nine tribes1 and for the half tribe4 #jf3jad3jjc ,for ,moses had given the inheritance of two tribes and an half tribe on the other side ,jordan3 but unto the ,levites he gave none inheritance among them4 #jf3jad3jjd ,for the children of ,joseph were two tribes1 ,manasseh and ,ephraim3 therefore they gave no part unto the ,levites in the land1 save cities to dwell in1 with their suburbs for their cattle and for their substance4 #jf3jad3jje ,as the ,,lord commanded ,moses1 so the children of ,israel did1 and they divided the land4 #jf3jad3jjf ,then the children of ,judah came unto ,joshua in ,gilgal3 and ,caleb the son of ,jephunneh the ,kenezite said unto him1 ,thou knowest the thing that the ,,lord said unto ,moses the man of ,god concerning me and thee in ,kadeshbarnea4 #jf3jad3jjg ,forty years old was ,i when ,moses the servant of the ,,lord sent me from ,kadeshbarnea to espy out the land2 and ,i brought him word again as it was in mine heart4 #jf3jad3jjh ,nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt3 but ,i wholly followed the ,,lord my ,god4 #jf3jad3jji ,and ,moses sware on that day1 saying1 ,surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance1 and thy children's for ever1 because thou hast wholly followed the ,,lord my ,god4 #jf3jad3jaj ,and now1 behold1 the ,,lord hath kept me alive1 as he said1 these forty and five years1 even since the ,,lord spake this word unto ,moses1 while the children of ,israel wandered in the wilderness3 and now1 lo1 ,i am this day fourscore and five years old4 #jf3jad3jaa ,as yet ,i am as strong this day as ,i was in the day that ,moses sent me3 as my strength was then1 even so is my strength now1 for war1 both to go out1 and to come in4 #jf3jad3jab ,now therefore give me this mountain1 whereof the ,,lord spake in that day2 for thou heardest in that day how the ,anakims were there1 and that the cities were great and fenced3 if so be the ,,lord will be with me1 then ,i shall be able to drive them out1 as the ,,lord said4 #jf3jad3jac ,and ,joshua blessed him1 and gave unto ,caleb the son of ,jephunneh ,hebron for an inheritance4 #jf3jad3jad ,hebron therefore became the inheritance of ,caleb the son of ,jephunneh the ,kenezite unto this day1 because that he wholly followed the ,,lord ,god of ,israel4 #jf3jad3jae ,and the name of ,hebron before was ,kirjatharba2 which ,arba was a great man among the ,anakims4 ,and the land had rest from war4 #jf3jae3jja ,this then was the lot of the tribe of the children of ,judah by their families2 even to the border of ,edom the wilderness of ,zin southward was the uttermost part of the south coast4 #jf3jae3jjb ,and their south border was from the shore of the salt sea1 from the bay that looketh southward3

border were at the sea4 #jf3jae3jab ,and the west border was to the great sea1 and the coast thereof4 ,this is the coast of the children of ,judah round about according to their families4 #jf3jae3jac ,and unto ,caleb the son of ,jephunneh he gave a part among the children of ,judah1 according to the commandment of the ,,lord to ,joshua1 even the city of ,arba the father of ,anak1 which city is ,hebron4 #jf3jae3jad ,and ,caleb drove thence the three sons of ,anak1 ,sheshai1 and ,ahiman1 and ,talmai1 the children of ,anak4 #jf3jae3jae ,and he went up thence to the inhabitants of ,debir3 and the name of ,debir before was ,kirjathsepher4 #jf3jae3jaf ,and ,caleb said1 ,he that smiteth ,kirjathsepher1 and taketh it1 to him will ,i give ,achsah my daughter to wife4 #jf3jae3jag ,and ,othniel the son of ,kenaz1 the brother of ,caleb1 took it3 and he gave him ,achsah his daughter to wife4 #jf3jae3jah ,and it came to pass1 as she came unto him1 that she moved him to ask of her father a field3 and she lighted off her ass2 and ,caleb said unto her1 ,what wouldest thou8 #jf3jae3jai ,who answered1 ,give me a blessing2 for thou hast given me a south land2 give me also springs of water4 ,and he gave her the upper springs1 and the nether springs4 #jf3jae3jbj ,this is the inheritance of the tribe of the children of ,judah according to their families4 #jf3jae3jba ,and the uttermost

the inhabitants of ,jerusalem1 the children of ,judah could not drive them out2 but the ,jebusites dwell with the children of ,judah at ,jerusalem unto this day4 #jf3jaf3jja ,and the lot of the children of ,joseph fell from ,jordan by ,jericho1 unto the water of ,jericho on the east1 to the wilderness that goeth up from ,jericho throughout mount ,bethel1 #jf3jaf3jjb ,and goeth out from ,bethel to ,luz1 and passeth along unto the borders of ,archi to ,ataroth1 #jf3jaf3jjc ,and goeth down westward to the coast of ,japhleti1 unto the coast of ,bethhoron the nether1 and to ,gezer2 and the goings out thereof are at the sea4 #jf3jaf3jjd ,so the children of ,joseph1 ,manasseh and ,ephraim1 took their inheritance4 #jf3jaf3jje ,and the border of the children of ,ephraim according to their families was thus3 even the border of their inheritance on the east side was ,atarothaddar1 unto ,bethhoron the upper2 #jf3jaf3jjf ,and the border went out toward the sea to ,michmethah on the

the children of ,ephraim by their families4 #jf3jaf3jji ,and the separate cities for the children of ,ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of ,manasseh1 all the cities with their villages4 #jf3jaf3jaj ,and they drave not out the ,canaanites that dwelt in ,gezer3 but the ,canaanites dwell among the ,ephraimites unto this day1 and serve under tribute4 #jf3jag3jja ,there was also a lot for the tribe of ,manasseh2 for he was the firstborn of ,joseph2 to wit1 for ,machir the firstborn of ,manasseh1 the father of ,gilead3 because he was a man of war1 therefore he had ,gilead and ,bashan4 #jf3jag3jjb ,there was also a lot for the rest of the children of ,manasseh by their families2 for the children of ,abiezer1 and for the children of ,helek1 and for the children of ,asriel1 and for the children of ,shechem1 and for the children of ,hepher1 and for the children of ,shemida3 these were the male children of ,manasseh the son of ,joseph by their families4 #jf3jag3jjc ,but

,milcah1 and ,tirzah4 #jf3jag3jjd ,and they came near before ,eleazar the priest1 and before ,joshua the son of ,nun1 and before the princes1 saying1 ,the ,,lord commanded ,moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren4 ,therefore according to the commandment of the ,,lord he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father4 #jf3jag3jje ,and there fell ten portions to ,manasseh1 beside the land of ,gilead and ,bashan1 which were on the other side ,jordan2 #jf3jag3jjf ,because the daughters of ,manasseh had an inheritance among his sons3 and the rest of ,manasseh's sons had the land of ,gilead4 #jf3jag3jjg ,and the coast of ,manasseh was from ,asher to ,michmethah1 that lieth before ,shechem2 and the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of ,entappuah4 #jf3jag3jjh ,now ,manasseh had the land of ,tappuah3 but ,tappuah on the border of ,manasseh belonged to the children of ,ephraim2 #jf3jag3jji ,and the coast descended unto the river ,kanah1 southward of the river3 these cities of ,ephraim are among the cities of ,manasseh3 the coast of ,manasseh also was on the north side of the river1 and the outgoings of it were at the sea3 #jf3jag3jaj ,southward it was ,ephraim's1 and northward it was ,manasseh's1 and the sea is his border2 and they met together in ,asher on the north1 and in ,issachar on the east4 #jf3jag3jaa ,and ,manasseh had in ,issachar and in ,asher ,bethshean and her towns1 and ,ibleam and her towns1 and the inhabitants of ,dor and her towns1 and the inhabitants of ,endor and her towns1 and the inhabitants of ,taanach and her towns1 and the inhabitants of ,megiddo and her towns1 even three countries4 #jf3jag3jab ,yet the children of ,manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities2 but the ,canaanites would dwell in that land4 #jf3jag3jac ,yet it came to pass1 when the children of ,israel were waxen strong1 that they put the ,canaanites to tribute1 but did not utterly drive them out4 #jf3jag3jad ,and the children of ,joseph spake unto ,joshua1 saying1 ,why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to inherit1 seeing ,i am a great people1 forasmuch as the ,,lord hath blessed me hitherto8 #jf3jag3jae ,and ,joshua answered them1 ,if thou be a great people1 then get thee up to the wood country1 and cut down for thyself there in the land of the ,perizzites and of the giants1 if mount ,ephraim be too narrow for thee4 #jf3jag3jaf ,and the children of ,joseph said1 ,the hill is not enough for us3 and all the ,canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron1 both they who are of ,bethshean and her towns1 and they who are of the valley of ,jezreel4 #jf3jag3jag ,and ,joshua spake unto the house of ,joseph1 even to ,ephraim and to ,manasseh1 saying1 ,thou art a great people1 and hast great power3 thou shalt not have one lot only3 #jf3jag3jah ,but the mountain shall be thine2 for it is a wood1 and thou shalt cut it down3 and the outgoings of it shall be thine3 for thou shalt drive out the ,canaanites1 though they have iron chariots1 and though they be strong4 #jf3jah3jja ,and the whole congregation of the children of ,israel assembled together at ,shiloh1 and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there4 ,and the land was subdued before them4 #jf3jah3jjb ,and there remained among the children of ,israel seven tribes1 which had not yet received their inheritance4 #jf3jah3jjc ,and ,joshua said unto the children of ,israel1 ,how long are ye slack to go to possess the land1 which the ,,lord ,god of your fathers hath given you8 #jf3jah3jjd ,give out from among you three men for each tribe3 and ,i will send them1 and they shall rise1 and go through the land1 and describe it according to the inheritance of them2 and they shall come again to me4 #jf3jah3jje ,and they shall divide it into seven parts3 ,judah shall abide in their coast on the south1 and the house of ,joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north4 #jf3jah3jjf ,ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts1 and bring the description hither to me1 that ,i may cast lots for you here before the ,,lord our ,god4 #jf3jah3jjg ,but the ,levites have no part among you2 for the priesthood of the ,,lord is their inheritance3 and ,gad1 and ,reuben1 and half the tribe of ,manasseh1 have received their inheritance beyond ,jordan on the east1 which ,moses the servant of the ,,lord gave them4 #jf3jah3jjh ,and the men arose1 and went away3 and ,joshua charged them that went to describe the land1 saying1 ,go and walk through the land1 and describe it1 and come again to me1 that ,i may here cast lots for you before the ,,lord in ,shiloh4 #jf3jah3jji ,and the men went and passed through the land1 and described it by cities into seven parts in a book1 and came again to ,joshua to the host at ,shiloh4 #jf3jah3jaj ,and ,joshua cast lots for them in ,shiloh before the ,,lord3 and there ,joshua divided the land unto the children of ,israel according to their divisions4 #jf3jah3jaa ,and the lot of the tribe of the children of ,benjamin came up according to their families3 and the coast of their lot came forth between the children of ,judah and the children of ,joseph4 #jf3jah3jab ,and their border on the north side was from ,jordan2 and the border went up to the side of ,jericho on the north side1 and went up through the mountains westward2 and the goings out thereof were at the wilderness of ,bethaven4 #jf3jah3jac ,and the border went over from thence toward ,luz1 to the side of ,luz1 which is ,bethel1 southward2 and the border descended to ,atarothadar1 near the hill that lieth on the south side of the nether ,bethhoron4 #jf3jah3jad ,and the border was drawn thence1 and compassed the corner of the sea southward1 from the hill that lieth before ,bethhoron southward2 and the goings out thereof were at ,kirjathbaal1 which is ,kirjathjearim1 a city of the children of ,judah3 this was the west quarter4 #jf3jah3jae

when they came unto the borders of ,jordan1 that are in the land of ,canaan1 the children of ,reuben and the children of ,gad and the half tribe of ,manasseh built there an altar by ,jordan1 a great altar to see to4 #jf3jbb3jaa ,and the children of ,israel heard say1 ,behold1 the children of ,reuben and the children of ,gad and the half tribe of ,manasseh have built an altar over against the land of ,canaan1 in the borders of ,jordan1 at the passage of the children of ,israel4 #jf3jbb3jab ,and when the children of ,israel heard of it1 the whole congregation of the children of ,israel gathered themselves together at ,shiloh1 to go up to war against them4 #jf3jbb3jac ,and the children of ,israel sent unto the children of ,reuben1 and to the children of ,gad1 and to the half tribe of ,manasseh1 into the land of ,gilead1 ,phinehas the son of ,eleazar the priest1 #jf3jbb3jad ,and with him ten princes1 of each chief house a prince throughout all the tribes of ,israel2 and each one was an head of the house of their fathers among the thousands of ,israel4 #jf3jbb3jae ,and they came unto the children of ,reuben1 and to the children of ,gad1 and to the half tribe of ,manasseh1 unto the land of ,gilead1 and they spake with them1 saying1 #jf3jbb3jaf ,thus saith the whole congregation of the ,,lord1 ,what trespass is this that ye have committed against the ,god of ,israel1 to turn away this day from following the ,,lord1 in that ye have builded you an altar1 that ye might rebel this day against the ,,lord8 #jf3jbb3jag ,is the iniquity of ,peor too little for us1 from which we are not cleansed until this day1 although there was a plague in the congregation of the ,,lord1 #jf3jbb3jah ,but that ye must turn away this day from following the ,,lord8 and it will be1 seeing ye rebel to day against the ,,lord1 that to morrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of ,israel4 #jf3jbb3jai ,notwithstanding1 if the land of your possession be unclean1 then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the ,,lord1 wherein the ,,lord's tabernacle dwelleth1 and take possession among us3 but rebel not against the ,,lord1 nor rebel against us1 in building you an altar beside the altar of the ,,lord our ,god4 #jf3jbb3jbj ,did not ,achan the son of ,zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing1 and wrath fell on all the congregation of ,israel8 and that man perished not alone in his iniquity4 #jf3jbb3jba ,then the children of ,reuben and the children of ,gad and the half tribe of ,manasseh answered1 and said unto the heads of the thousands of ,israel1 #jf3jbb3jbb ,the ,,lord ,god of gods1 the ,,lord ,god of gods1 he knoweth1 and ,israel he shall know2 if it be in rebellion1 or if in transgression against the ,,lord1 7save us not this day17 #jf3jbb3jbc ,that we have built us an altar to turn from following the ,,lord1 or if to offer thereon burnt offering or meat offering1 or if to offer peace offerings thereon1 let the ,,lord himself require it2 #jf3jbb3jbd ,and if we have not rather done it for fear of this thing1 saying1 ,in time to come your children might speak unto our children1 saying1 ,what have ye to do with the ,,lord ,god of ,israel8 #jf3jbb3jbe ,for the ,,lord hath made ,jordan a border between us and you1 ye children of ,reuben and children of ,gad2 ye have no part in the ,,lord3 so shall your children make our children cease from fearing the ,,lord4 #jf3jbb3jbf ,therefore we said1 ,let us now prepare to build us an altar1 not for burnt offering1 nor for sacrifice3 #jf3jbb3jbg ,but that it may be a witness between us1 and you1 and our generations after us1 that we might do the service of the ,,lord before him with our burnt offerings1 and with our sacrifices1 and with our peace offerings2 that your children may not say to our children in time to come1 ,ye have no part in the ,,lord4 #jf3jbb3jbh ,therefore said we1 that it shall be1 when they should so say to us or to our generations in time to come1 that we may say again1 ,behold the pattern of the altar of the ,,lord1 which our fathers made1 not for burnt offerings1 nor for sacrifices2 but it is a witness between us and you4 #jf3jbb3jbi ,god forbid that we should rebel against the ,,lord1 and turn this day from following the ,,lord1 to build an altar for burnt offerings1 for meat offerings1 or for sacrifices1 beside the altar of the ,,lord our ,god that is before his tabernacle4 #jf3jbb3jcj ,and when ,phinehas the priest1 and the princes of the congregation and heads of the thousands of ,israel which were with him1 heard the words that the children of ,reuben and the children of ,gad and the children of ,manasseh spake1 it pleased them4 #jf3jbb3jca ,and ,phinehas the son of ,eleazar the priest said unto the children of ,reuben1 and to the children of ,gad1 and to the children of ,manasseh1 ,this day we perceive that the ,,lord is among us1 because ye have not committed this trespass against the ,,lord3 now ye have delivered the children of ,israel out of the hand of the ,,lord4 #jf3jbb3jcb ,and ,phinehas the son of ,eleazar the priest1 and the princes1 returned from the children of ,reuben1 and from the children of ,gad1 out of the land of ,gilead1 unto the land of ,canaan1 to the children of ,israel1 and brought them word again4 #jf3jbb3jcc ,and the thing pleased the children of ,israel2 and the children of ,israel blessed ,god1 and did not intend to go up against them in battle1 to destroy the land wherein the children of ,reuben and ,gad dwelt4 #jf3jbb3jcd ,and the children of ,reuben and the children of ,gad called the altar ,ed3 for it shall be a witness between us that the ,,lord is ,god4 #jf3jbc3jja ,and it came to pass a long time after that the ,,lord had given rest unto ,israel from all their enemies round about1 that ,joshua waxed old and stricken in age4 #jf3jbc3jjb ,and ,joshua called for all ,israel1 and for their elders1 and for their heads1 and for their judges1 and for their officers1 and said unto them1 ,i am old and stricken in age3 #jf3jbc3jjc ,and ye have seen all that the ,,lord your ,god hath done unto all these nations because of you2 for the ,,lord your ,god is he that hath fought for you4 #jf3jbc3jjd ,behold1 ,i have divided unto you by lot these nations that remain1 to be an inheritance for your tribes1 from ,jordan1 with all the nations that ,i have cut off1 even unto the great sea westward4 #jf3jbc3jje ,and the ,,lord your ,god1 he shall expel them from before you1 and drive them from out of your sight2 and ye shall possess their land1 as the ,,lord your ,god hath promised unto you4 #jf3jbc3jjf ,be ye therefore very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of ,moses1 that ye turn not aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left2 #jf3jbc3jjg ,that ye come not among these nations1 these that remain among you2 neither make mention of the name of their gods1 nor cause to swear by them1 neither serve them1 nor bow yourselves unto them3 #jf3jbc3jjh ,but cleave unto the ,,lord your ,god1 as ye have done unto this day4 #jf3jbc3jji ,for the ,,lord hath driven out from before you great nations and strong3 but as for you1 no man hath been able to stand before you unto this day4 #jf3jbc3jaj ,one man of you shall chase a thousand3 for the ,,lord your ,god1 he it is that fighteth for you1 as he hath promised you4 #jf3jbc3jaa ,take good heed therefore unto yourselves1 that ye love the ,,lord your ,god4 #jf3jbc3jab ,else if ye do in any wise go back1 and cleave unto the remnant of these nations1 even these that remain among you1 and shall make marriages with them1 and go in unto them1 and they to you3 #jf3jbc3jac ,know for a certainty that the ,,lord your ,god will no more drive out any of these nations from before you2 but they shall be snares and traps unto you1 and scourges in your sides1 and thorns in your eyes1 until ye perish from off this good land which the ,,lord your ,god hath given you4 #jf3jbc3jad ,and1 behold1 this day ,i am going the way of all the earth3 and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls1 that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the ,,lord your ,god spake concerning you2 all are come to pass unto you1 and not one thing hath failed thereof4 #jf3jbc3jae ,therefore it shall come to pass1 that as all good things are come upon you1 which the ,,lord your ,god promised you2 so shall the ,,lord bring upon you all evil things1 until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the ,,lord your ,god hath given you4 #jf3jbc3jaf ,when ye have transgressed the covenant of the ,,lord your ,god1 which he commanded you1 and have gone and served other gods1 and bowed yourselves to them2 then shall the anger of the ,,lord be kindled against you1 and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given unto you4 #jf3jbd3jja ,and ,joshua gathered all the tribes of ,israel to ,shechem1 and called for the elders of ,israel1 and for their heads1 and for their judges1 and for their officers2 and they presented themselves before ,god4 #jf3jbd3jjb ,and ,joshua said unto all the people1 ,thus saith the ,,lord ,god of ,israel1 ,your fathers dwelt on the other side of the flood in old time1 even ,terah1 the father of ,abraham1 and the father of ,nachor3 and they served other gods4 #jf3jbd3jjc ,and ,i took your father ,abraham from the other side of the flood1 and led him throughout all the land of ,canaan1 and multiplied his seed1 and gave him ,isaac4 #jf3jbd3jjd ,and ,i gave unto ,isaac ,jacob and ,esau3 and ,i gave unto ,esau mount ,seir1 to possess it2 but ,jacob and his children went down into ,egypt4 #jf3jbd3jje ,i sent ,moses also and ,aaron1 and ,i plagued ,egypt1 according to that which ,i did among them3 and afterward ,i brought you out4 #jf3jbd3jjf ,and ,i brought your fathers out of ,egypt3 and ye came unto the sea2 and the ,egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and horsemen unto the ,red sea4 #jf3jbd3jjg ,and when they cried unto the ,,lord1 he put darkness between you and the ,egyptians1 and brought the sea upon them1 and covered them2 and your eyes have seen what ,i have done in ,egypt3 and ye dwelt in the wilderness a long season4 #jf3jbd3jjh ,and ,i brought you into the land of the ,amorites1 which dwelt on the other side ,jordan2 and they fought with you3 and ,i gave them into your hand1 that ye might possess their land2 and ,i destroyed them from before you4 #jf3jbd3jji ,then ,balak the son of ,zippor1 king of ,moab1 arose and warred against ,israel1 and sent and called ,balaam the son of ,beor to curse you3 #jf3jbd3jaj ,but ,i would not hearken unto ,balaam2 therefore he blessed you still3 so ,i delivered you out of his hand4 #jf3jbd3jaa ,and you went over ,jordan1 and came unto ,jericho3 and the men of ,jericho fought against you1 the ,amorites1 and the ,perizzites1 and the ,canaanites1 and the ,hittites1 and the ,girgashites1 the ,hivites1 and the ,jebusites2 and ,i delivered them into your hand4 #jf3jbd3jab ,and ,i sent the hornet before you1 which drave them out from before you1 even the two kings of the ,amorites2 but not with thy sword1 nor with thy bow4 #jf3jbd3jac ,and ,i have given you a land for which ye did not labour1 and cities which ye built not1 and ye dwell in them2 of the vineyards and oliveyards which ye planted not do ye eat4 #jf3jbd3jad ,now therefore fear the ,,lord1 and serve him in sincerity and in truth3 and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood1 and in ,egypt2 and serve ye the ,,lord4 #jf3jbd3jae ,and if it seem evil unto you to serve the ,,lord1 choose you this day whom ye will serve2 whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood1 or the gods of the ,amorites1 in whose land ye dwell3 but as for me and my house1 we will serve the ,,lord4 #jf3jbd3jaf ,and the people answered and said1 ,god forbid that we should forsake the ,,lord1 to serve other gods2 #jf3jbd3jag ,for the ,,lord our ,god1 he it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the land of ,egypt1 from the house of bondage1 and which did those great signs in our sight1 and preserved us in all the way wherein we went1 and among all the people through whom we passed3 #jf3jbd3jah ,and the ,,lord drave out from before us all the people1 even the ,amorites which dwelt in the land3 therefore will we also serve the ,,lord2 for he is our ,god4 #jf3jbd3jai ,and ,joshua said unto the people1 ,ye cannot serve the ,,lord3 for he is an holy ,god2 he is a jealous ,god2 he will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins4 #jf3jbd3jbj ,if ye forsake the ,,lord1 and serve strange gods1 then he will turn and do you hurt1 and consume you1 after that he hath done you good4 #jf3jbd3jba ,and the people said unto ,joshua1 ,nay2 but we will serve the ,,lord4 #jf3jbd3jbb ,and ,joshua said unto the people1 ,ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye have chosen you the ,,lord1 to serve him4 ,and they said1 ,we are witnesses4 #jf3jbd3jbc ,now therefore put away1 said he1 the strange gods which are among you1 and incline your heart unto the ,,lord ,god of ,israel4 #jf3jbd3jbd ,and the people said unto ,joshua1 ,the ,,lord our ,god will we serve1 and his voice will we obey4 #jf3jbd3jbe ,so ,joshua made a covenant with the people that day1 and set them a statute and an ordinance in ,shechem4 #jf3jbd3jbf ,and ,joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of ,god1 and took a great stone1 and set it up there under an oak1 that was by the sanctuary of the ,,lord4 #jf3jbd3jbg ,and ,joshua said unto all the people1 ,behold1 this stone shall be a witness unto us2 for it hath heard all the words of the ,,lord which he spake unto us3 it shall be therefore a witness unto you1 lest ye deny your ,god4 #jf3jbd3jbh ,so ,joshua let the people depart1 every man unto his inheritance4 #jf3jbd3jbi ,and it came to pass after these things1 that ,joshua the son of ,nun1 the servant of the ,,lord1 died1 being an hundred and ten years old4 #jf3jbd3jcj ,and they buried him in the border of his inheritance in ,timnathserah1 which is in mount ,ephraim1 on the north side of the hill of ,gaash4 #jf3jbd3jca ,and ,israel served the ,,lord all the days of ,joshua1 and all the days of the elders that overlived ,joshua1 and which had known all the works of the ,,lord1 that he had done for ,israel4 #jf3jbd3jcb ,and the bones of ,joseph1 which the children of ,israel brought up out of ,egypt1 buried they in ,shechem1 in a parcel of ground which ,jacob bought of the sons of ,hamor the father of ,shechem for an hundred pieces of silver3 and it became the inheritance of the children of ,joseph4 #jf3jbd3jcc ,and ,eleazar the son of ,aaron died2 and they buried him in a hill that pertained to ,phinehas his son1 which was given him in mount ,ephraim4
