WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:05.780 Chapter 10 Now it came to pass, when Adonai Zedek, king of Jerusalem, 00:06.100 --> 00:10.520 had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it, as he had 00:10.520 --> 00:15.040 done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king, and how the 00:15.040 --> 00:19.200 inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them, that they 00:19.200 --> 00:23.480 feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, 00:23.780 --> 00:27.600 and because it was greater than Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty. 00:28.580 --> 00:32.840 Wherefore Adonai Zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent unto Hohem, king of Hebron, 00:33.300 --> 00:37.080 and unto Piram, king of Jarmath, and unto Jephiah, king of Lachish, 00:37.260 --> 00:42.040 and unto Debar, king of Eglon, saying, Come up unto me, and help me, 00:42.380 --> 00:46.880 that we may smite Gibeon, for it hath made peace with Joshua, and with the children 00:46.880 --> 00:47.600 of Israel. 00:48.180 --> 00:52.540 Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, 00:52.920 --> 00:57.080 the king of Jarmath, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves 00:57.080 --> 01:01.480 together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Gibeon, 01:01.800 --> 01:03.000 and made war against it. 01:03.500 --> 01:08.840 And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Slack not thy 01:08.840 --> 01:09.840 hand from thy servants. 01:10.300 --> 01:14.520 Come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us, for all the kings of the 01:14.520 --> 01:17.580 Amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together against us. 01:17.980 --> 01:21.800 So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, 01:22.100 --> 01:23.580 and all the mighty men of Valor. 01:23.580 --> 01:28.480 And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear them not, for I have delivered them 01:28.480 --> 01:29.500 into thine hand. 01:30.140 --> 01:32.540 There shall not a man of them stand before thee. 01:32.920 --> 01:36.820 Joshua therefore came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night. 01:37.360 --> 01:41.000 And the Lord discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great 01:41.000 --> 01:44.800 slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Bethhoran, 01:45.220 --> 01:47.880 and smote them to Ezekiah, and unto Makeda. 01:48.480 --> 01:52.500 And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down 01:52.500 --> 01:57.180 to Bethhoran, that the Lord cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto 01:57.180 --> 01:58.880 Ezekiah, and they died. 01:59.500 --> 02:03.500 They were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew 02:03.500 --> 02:04.060 with the sword. 02:05.120 --> 02:08.520 Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites 02:08.520 --> 02:09.740 before the children of Israel. 02:10.080 --> 02:14.720 And he said in the sight of Israel, Son, stand thou still upon Gibeon, 02:15.040 --> 02:17.380 and thou moon in the valley of Ajalon. 02:17.380 --> 02:22.100 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged 02:22.100 --> 02:23.520 themselves upon their enemies. 02:24.360 --> 02:26.080 Is not this written in the book of Jasher? 02:26.820 --> 02:31.160 So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a 02:31.160 --> 02:31.700 whole day. 02:32.400 --> 02:36.960 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto 02:36.960 --> 02:37.860 the voice of a man. 02:38.200 --> 02:40.320 For the Lord fought for Israel. 02:41.260 --> 02:45.160 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. 02:45.160 --> 02:49.580 But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makeda. 02:50.160 --> 02:53.860 And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at 02:53.860 --> 02:54.320 Makeda. 02:54.920 --> 02:59.020 And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men by it 02:59.020 --> 02:59.680 for to keep them. 03:00.360 --> 03:04.060 And stay ye not, but pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them. 03:04.500 --> 03:07.700 Suffer them not to enter into their cities, for the Lord your God hath 03:07.700 --> 03:08.960 delivered them into your hand. 03:09.180 --> 03:12.680 And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of 03:12.680 --> 03:16.620 slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest 03:16.620 --> 03:18.680 which remained of them entered in defense cities. 03:19.160 --> 03:22.600 And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makeda in peace. 03:23.180 --> 03:25.540 None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel. 03:26.300 --> 03:30.180 Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out those five kings unto 03:30.180 --> 03:31.120 me out of the cave. 03:31.500 --> 03:35.340 And they did so, and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave, 03:35.840 --> 03:40.120 the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmath, the king of Lachish, 03:40.460 --> 03:41.460 and the king of Eglon. 03:41.460 --> 03:46.080 And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua 03:46.080 --> 03:49.680 called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of 03:49.680 --> 03:54.720 war which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these 03:54.720 --> 03:55.300 kings. 03:55.580 --> 03:58.260 And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them. 03:58.920 --> 04:02.700 And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed. 04:03.200 --> 04:07.260 Be strong and of good courage, for thus shall the Lord do to all your 04:07.260 --> 04:08.820 enemies against whom ye fight. 04:08.820 --> 04:13.340 And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five 04:13.340 --> 04:13.780 trees. 04:14.020 --> 04:16.440 And they were hanging upon the trees until the evening. 04:17.180 --> 04:20.660 And it came to pass, at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua 04:20.660 --> 04:25.100 commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein 04:25.100 --> 04:29.760 they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until 04:29.760 --> 04:30.640 this very day. 04:31.700 --> 04:35.280 And that day Joshua took Makeda, and smote it with the edge of the sword. 04:35.280 --> 04:40.720 And the king thereof he utterly destroyed, them and all the souls that were therein. 04:40.820 --> 04:42.120 He let none remain. 04:42.520 --> 04:46.000 And he did to the king of Makeda, as he did unto the king of Jericho. 04:46.660 --> 04:50.740 Then Joshua passed from Makeda, and all Israel with him, unto Libna, 04:51.060 --> 04:52.100 and fought against Libna. 04:52.600 --> 04:56.520 And the Lord delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of 04:56.520 --> 04:56.840 Israel. 04:57.240 --> 05:00.460 And he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were 05:00.460 --> 05:00.960 therein. 05:00.960 --> 05:05.540 He let none remain in it, but did unto the king thereof, as he did unto the king of 05:05.540 --> 05:06.020 Jericho. 05:06.900 --> 05:10.760 And Joshua passed from Libna, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, 05:10.920 --> 05:13.280 and encamped against it, and fought against it. 05:13.560 --> 05:17.140 And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which took it on the 05:17.140 --> 05:21.040 second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were 05:21.040 --> 05:23.560 therein, according to all that he had done to Libna. 05:24.440 --> 05:29.500 Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish, and Joshua smote him and his 05:29.500 --> 05:31.740 people, until he had left him none remaining. 05:32.980 --> 05:37.660 And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him, and they encamped 05:37.660 --> 05:39.040 against it, and fought against it. 05:39.360 --> 05:43.500 And they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the 05:43.500 --> 05:46.940 souls that were therein, he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that 05:46.940 --> 05:47.860 he had done to Lachish. 05:48.400 --> 05:52.020 And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron, 05:52.140 --> 05:55.680 and they fought against it, and they took it, and smote it with the edge of the 05:55.680 --> 06:00.180 sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that 06:00.180 --> 06:03.940 were therein, he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to 06:03.940 --> 06:07.880 Eglon, but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein. 06:08.600 --> 06:13.040 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debar, and fought against it, 06:13.040 --> 06:17.180 and he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and they smote 06:17.180 --> 06:20.380 them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that 06:20.380 --> 06:24.720 were therein, he left none remaining, as he had done to Hebron, so he did to 06:24.720 --> 06:28.280 Debar, and to the king thereof, as he had done also to Libnah, 06:28.560 --> 06:29.220 and to her king. 06:30.120 --> 06:34.800 So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, 06:35.200 --> 06:39.320 and of the springs, and all their kings, he left none remaining, but utterly 06:39.320 --> 06:42.920 destroyed all that breathed, as the Lord God of Israel commanded. 06:43.720 --> 06:48.580 And Joshua smote them from Kadesh Barnea, even unto Geza, and all the country of 06:48.580 --> 06:50.320 Goshen, even unto Gibeon. 06:50.640 --> 06:55.100 And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the Lord 06:55.100 --> 06:56.840 God of Israel fought for Israel. 06:57.520 --> 07:01.740 And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp, to Gilgal.
