King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Now it came to pass,[H1961] when Adoni-zedek[H139] king[H4428] of Jerusalem[H3389] had heard[H8085] how[H3588] Joshua[H3091] had taken[H3920] [H853] Ai,[H5857] and had utterly destroyed[H2763] it; as[H834] he had done[H6213] to Jericho[H3405] and her king,[H4428] so[H3651] he had done[H6213] to Ai[H5857] and her king;[H4428] and how[H3588] the inhabitants[H3427] of Gibeon[H1391] had made peace[H7999] with[H854] Israel,[H3478] and were[H1961] among[H7130] them;

2. That they feared[H3372] greatly,[H3966] because[H3588] Gibeon[H1391] was a great[H1419] city,[H5892] as one[H259] of the royal[H4467] cities,[H5892] and because[H3588] it[H1931] was greater[H1419] than[H4480] Ai,[H5857] and all[H3605] the men[H376] thereof were mighty.[H1368]

3. Wherefore Adoni-zedek[H139] king[H4428] of Jerusalem[H3389] sent[H7971] unto[H413] Hoham[H1944] king[H4428] of Hebron,[H2275] and unto[H413] Piram[H6502] king[H4428] of Jarmuth,[H3412] and unto[H413] Japhia[H3309] king[H4428] of Lachish,[H3923] and unto[H413] Debir[H1688] king[H4428] of Eglon,[H5700] saying,[H559]

4. Come up[H5927] unto[H413] me, and help[H5826] me, that we may smite[H5221] [H853] Gibeon:[H1391] for[H3588] it hath made peace[H7999] with[H854] Joshua[H3091] and with[H854] the children[H1121] of Israel.[H3478]

5. Therefore the five[H2568] kings[H4428] of the Amorites,[H567] the king[H4428] of Jerusalem,[H3389] the king[H4428] of Hebron,[H2275] the king[H4428] of Jarmuth,[H3412] the king[H4428] of Lachish,[H3923] the king[H4428] of Eglon,[H5700] gathered themselves together,[H622] and went up,[H5927] they[H1992] and all[H3605] their hosts,[H4264] and encamped[H2583] before[H5921] Gibeon,[H1391] and made war[H3898] against[H5921] it.

6. And the men[H376] of Gibeon[H1391] sent[H7971] unto[H413] Joshua[H3091] to[H413] the camp[H4264] to Gilgal,[H1537] saying,[H559] Slack[H7503] not[H408] thy hand[H3027] from thy servants;[H4480] [H5650] come up[H5927] to[H413] us quickly,[H4120] and save[H3467] us, and help[H5826] us: for[H3588] all[H3605] the kings[H4428] of the Amorites[H567] that dwell[H3427] in the mountains[H2022] are gathered together[H6908] against[H413] us.

7. So Joshua[H3091] ascended[H5927] from[H4480] Gilgal,[H1537] he,[H1931] and all[H3605] the people[H5971] of war[H4421] with[H5973] him, and all[H3605] the mighty men[H1368] of valor.[H2428]

8. And the LORD[H3068] said[H559] unto[H413] Joshua,[H3091] Fear[H3372] them not:[H408] for[H3588] I have delivered[H5414] them into thine hand;[H3027] there shall not[H3808] a man[H376] of[H4480] them stand[H5975] before[H6440] thee.

9. Joshua[H3091] therefore came[H935] unto[H413] them suddenly,[H6597] and went up[H5927] from[H4480] Gilgal[H1537] all[H3605] night.[H3915]

10. And the LORD[H3068] discomfited[H2000] them before[H6440] Israel,[H3478] and slew[H5221] them with a great[H1419] slaughter[H4347] at Gibeon,[H1391] and chased[H7291] them along the way[H1870] that goeth up[H4608] to Beth-horon,[H1032] and smote[H5221] them to[H5704] Azekah,[H5825] and unto[H5704] Makkedah.[H4719]

11. And it came to pass,[H1961] as they fled[H5127] from before[H4480] [H6440] Israel,[H3478] and were in the going down[H4174] to Beth-horon,[H1032] that the LORD[H3068] cast down[H7993] great[H1419] stones[H68] from[H4480] heaven[H8064] upon[H5921] them unto[H5704] Azekah,[H5825] and they died:[H4191] they were more[H7227] which[H834] died[H4191] with hailstones[H1259] [H68] than they whom[H4480] [H834] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] slew[H2026] with the sword.[H2719]

12. Then[H227] spoke[H1696] Joshua[H3091] to the LORD[H3068] in the day[H3117] when the LORD[H3068] delivered up[H5414] [H853] the Amorites[H567] before[H6440] the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] and he said[H559] in the sight[H5869] of Israel,[H3478] Sun,[H8121] stand thou still[H1826] upon Gibeon;[H1391] and thou, Moon,[H3394] in the valley[H6010] of Ajalon.[H357]

13. And the sun[H8121] stood still,[H1826] and the moon[H3394] stayed,[H5975] until[H5704] the people[H1471] had avenged[H5358] themselves upon their enemies.[H341] Is not[H3808] this[H1931] written[H3789] in[H5921] the book[H5612] of Jasher?[H3477] So the sun[H8121] stood[H5975] still in the midst[H2677] of heaven,[H8064] and hasted[H213] not[H3808] to go down[H935] about a whole[H8549] day.[H3117]

14. And there was[H1961] no[H3808] day[H3117] like that[H1931] before[H6440] it or after[H310] it, that the LORD[H3068] hearkened[H8085] unto the voice[H6963] of a man:[H376] for[H3588] the LORD[H3068] fought[H3898] for Israel.[H3478]

15. And Joshua[H3091] returned,[H7725] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him, unto[H413] the camp[H4264] to Gilgal.[H1537]

16. But these[H428] five[H2568] kings[H4428] fled,[H5127] and hid themselves[H2244] in a cave[H4631] at Makkedah.[H4719]

17. And it was told[H5046] Joshua,[H3091] saying,[H559] The five[H2568] kings[H4428] are found[H4672] hid[H2244] in a cave[H4631] at Makkedah.[H4719]

18. And Joshua[H3091] said,[H559] Roll[H1556] great[H1419] stones[H68] upon[H413] the mouth[H6310] of the cave,[H4631] and set[H6485] men[H376] by[H5921] it for to keep[H8104] them:

19. And stay[H5975] ye[H859] not,[H408] but pursue[H7291] after[H310] your enemies,[H341] and smite the hindmost[H2179] of them; suffer[H5414] them not[H408] to enter[H935] into[H413] their cities:[H5892] for[H3588] the LORD[H3068] your God[H430] hath delivered[H5414] them into your hand.[H3027]

20. And it came to pass,[H1961] when Joshua[H3091] and the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] had made an end[H3615] of slaying[H5221] them with a very[H3966] great[H1419] slaughter,[H4347] till[H5704] they were consumed,[H8552] that the rest[H8300] which remained[H8277] of[H4480] them entered[H935] into[H413] fenced[H4013] cities.[H5892]

21. And all[H3605] the people[H5971] returned[H7725] to[H413] the camp[H4264] to[H413] Joshua[H3091] at Makkedah[H4719] in peace:[H7965] none[H3808] moved[H2782] [H853] his tongue[H3956] against any[H376] of the children[H1121] of Israel.[H3478]

22. Then said[H559] Joshua,[H3091] Open[H6605] [H853] the mouth[H6310] of the cave,[H4631] and bring out[H3318] [H853] those[H428] five[H2568] kings[H4428] unto[H413] me out of[H4480] the cave.[H4631]

23. And they did[H6213] so,[H3651] and brought forth[H3318] [H853] those[H428] five[H2568] kings[H4428] unto[H413] him out of[H4480] the cave,[H4631] [H853] the king[H4428] of Jerusalem,[H3389] [H853] the king[H4428] of Hebron,[H2275] [H853] the king[H4428] of Jarmuth,[H3412] [H853] the king[H4428] of Lachish,[H3923] and[H853] the king[H4428] of Eglon.[H5700]

24. And it came to pass,[H1961] when they brought out[H3318] [H853] those[H428] kings[H4428] unto[H413] Joshua,[H3091] that Joshua[H3091] called[H7121] for[H413] all[H3605] the men[H376] of Israel,[H3478] and said[H559] unto[H413] the captains[H7101] of the men[H376] of war[H4421] which went[H1980] with[H854] him, Come near,[H7126] put[H7760] [H853] your feet[H7272] upon[H5921] the necks[H6677] of these[H428] kings.[H4428] And they came near,[H7126] and put[H7760] [H853] their feet[H7272] upon[H5921] the necks[H6677] of them.

25. And Joshua[H3091] said[H559] unto[H413] them, Fear[H3372] not,[H408] nor[H408] be dismayed,[H2865] be strong[H2388] and of good courage:[H553] for[H3588] thus[H3602] shall the LORD[H3068] do[H6213] to all[H3605] your enemies[H341] against whom[H834] [H853] ye[H859] fight.[H3898]

26. And afterward[H310] [H3651] Joshua[H3091] smote[H5221] them, and slew[H4191] them, and hanged[H8518] them on[H5921] five[H2568] trees:[H6086] and they were[H1961] hanging[H8518] upon[H5921] the trees[H6086] until[H5704] the evening.[H6153]

27. And it came to pass[H1961] at the time[H6256] of the going down[H935] of the sun,[H8121] that Joshua[H3091] commanded,[H6680] and they took them down[H3381] off the trees,[H4480] [H5921] [H6086] and cast[H7993] them into[H413] the cave[H4631] wherein[H834] [H8033] they had been hid,[H2244] and laid[H7760] great[H1419] stones[H68] in[H5921] the cave's[H4631] mouth,[H6310] which remain until[H5704] this[H2088] very[H6106] day.[H3117]

28. And that[H1931] day[H3117] Joshua[H3091] took[H3920] Makkedah,[H4719] and smote[H5221] it with the edge[H6310] of the sword,[H2719] and the king[H4428] thereof he utterly destroyed[H2763] them, and all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein; he let[H7604] none[H3808] remain:[H8300] and he did[H6213] to the king[H4428] of Makkedah[H4719] as[H834] he did[H6213] unto the king[H4428] of Jericho.[H3405]

29. Then Joshua[H3091] passed[H5674] from Makkedah,[H4480] [H4719] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him, unto Libnah,[H3841] and fought[H3898] against[H5973] Libnah: [H3841]

30. And the LORD[H3068] delivered[H5414] it also,[H1571] and the king[H4428] thereof, into the hand[H3027] of Israel;[H3478] and he smote[H5221] it with the edge[H6310] of the sword,[H2719] and all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein; he let[H7604] none[H3808] remain[H8300] in it; but did[H6213] unto the king[H4428] thereof as[H834] he did[H6213] unto the king[H4428] of Jericho.[H3405]

31. And Joshua[H3091] passed[H5674] from Libnah,[H4480] [H3841] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him, unto Lachish,[H3923] and encamped[H2583] against[H5921] it, and fought[H3898] against it:

32. And the LORD[H3068] delivered[H5414] [H853] Lachish[H3923] into the hand[H3027] of Israel,[H3478] which took[H3920] it on the second[H8145] day,[H3117] and smote[H5221] it with the edge[H6310] of the sword,[H2719] and all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein, according to all[H3605] that[H834] he had done[H6213] to Libnah.[H3841]

33. Then[H227] Horam[H2036] king[H4428] of Gezer[H1507] came up[H5927] to help[H5826] [H853] Lachish;[H3923] and Joshua[H3091] smote[H5221] him and his people,[H5971] until[H5704] he had left[H7604] him none[H1115] remaining.[H8300]

34. And from Lachish[H4480] [H3923] Joshua[H3091] passed[H5674] unto Eglon,[H5700] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him; and they encamped[H2583] against[H5921] it, and fought[H3898] against[H5921] it:

35. And they took[H3920] it on that[H1931] day,[H3117] and smote[H5221] it with the edge[H6310] of the sword,[H2719] and all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein he utterly destroyed[H2763] that[H1931] day,[H3117] according to all[H3605] that[H834] he had done[H6213] to Lachish.[H3923]

36. And Joshua[H3091] went up[H5927] from Eglon,[H4480] [H5700] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him, unto Hebron;[H2275] and they fought[H3898] against[H5921] it:

37. And they took[H3920] it, and smote[H5221] it with the edge[H6310] of the sword,[H2719] and the king[H4428] thereof, and all[H3605] the cities[H5892] thereof, and all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein; he left[H7604] none[H3808] remaining,[H8300] according to all[H3605] that[H834] he had done[H6213] to Eglon;[H5700] but destroyed[H2763] it utterly, and all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein.

38. And Joshua[H3091] returned,[H7725] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him, to Debir;[H1688] and fought[H3898] against[H5921] it:

39. And he took[H3920] it, and the king[H4428] thereof, and all[H3605] the cities[H5892] thereof; and they smote[H5221] them with the edge[H6310] of the sword,[H2719] and utterly destroyed[H2763] [H853] all[H3605] the souls[H5315] that[H834] were therein; he left[H7604] none[H3808] remaining:[H8300] as[H834] he had done[H6213] to Hebron,[H2275] so[H3651] he did[H6213] to Debir,[H1688] and to the king[H4428] thereof; as[H834] he had done[H6213] also to Libnah,[H3841] and to her king.[H4428]

40. So Joshua[H3091] smote[H5221] [H853] all[H3605] the country[H776] of the hills,[H2022] and of the south,[H5045] and of the vale,[H8219] and of the springs,[H794] and all[H3605] their kings:[H4428] he left[H7604] none[H3808] remaining,[H8300] but utterly destroyed[H2763] all[H3605] that breathed,[H5397] as[H834] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel[H3478] commanded.[H6680]

41. And Joshua[H3091] smote[H5221] them from Kadesh-barnea[H4480] [H6947] even unto[H5704] Gaza,[H5804] and all[H3605] the country[H776] of Goshen,[H1657] even unto[H5704] Gibeon.[H1391]

42. And all[H3605] these[H428] kings[H4428] and their land[H776] did Joshua[H3091] take[H3920] at one[H259] time,[H6471] because[H3588] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel[H3478] fought[H3898] for Israel.[H3478]

43. And Joshua[H3091] returned,[H7725] and all[H3605] Israel[H3478] with[H5973] him, unto[H413] the camp[H4264] to Gilgal.[H1537]
