Joshua 10

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 When Adonisedec king of Jerusalem had heard these things, to wit, that Josue had taken Hai, and had destroyed it, (for as he had done to Jericho and the king thereof, so did he to Hai, and its king,) and that the Gabaonites were gone over to Israel, and were their confederates,	1 ως δε ηκουσεν αδωνιβεζεκ βασιλευς ιερουσαλημ οτι ελαβεν ιησους την γαι και εξωλεθρευσεν αυτην ον τροπον εποιησαν την ιεριχω και τον βασιλεα αυτης ουτως εποιησαν την γαι και τον βασιλεα αυτης και οτι αυτομολησαν οι κατοικουντες γαβαων προς ιησουν και προς ισραηλ
2 He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant.	2 και εφοβηθησαν εν αυτοις σφοδρα ηδει γαρ οτι μεγαλη πολις γαβαων ωσει μια των μητροπολεων και παντες οι ανδρες αυτης ισχυροι
3 Therefore Adonisedec king of Jerusalem sent to Oham king of Hebron, and to Pharam king of Jerimoth, and to Japhia king of Lachis, and to Dabir king of Eglon, saying:	3 και απεστειλεν αδωνιβεζεκ βασιλευς ιερουσαλημ προς αιλαμ βασιλεα χεβρων και προς φιδων βασιλεα ιεριμουθ και προς ιεφθα βασιλεα λαχις και προς δαβιρ βασιλεα οδολλαμ λεγων
4 Come up to me, and bring help, that we may take Gabaon, because it hath gone over to Josue, and to the children of Israel.	4 δευτε αναβητε προς με και βοηθησατε μοι και εκπολεμησωμεν γαβαων αυτομολησαν γαρ προς ιησουν και προς τους υιους ισραηλ
5 So the five kings of the Amorrhites being assembled together went up: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon, they and their armies, and camped about Gabaon, laying siege to it.	5 και ανεβησαν οι πεντε βασιλεις των ιεβουσαιων βασιλευς ιερουσαλημ και βασιλευς χεβρων και βασιλευς ιεριμουθ και βασιλευς λαχις και βασιλευς οδολλαμ αυτοι και πας ο λαος αυτων και περιεκαθισαν την γαβαων και εξεπολιορκουν αυτην
6 But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.	6 και απεστειλαν οι κατοικουντες γαβαων προς ιησουν εις την παρεμβολην ισραηλ εις γαλγαλα λεγοντες μη εκλυσης τας χειρας σου απο των παιδων σου αναβηθι προς ημας το ταχος και εξελου ημας και βοηθησον ημιν οτι συνηγμενοι εισιν εφ' ημας παντες οι βασιλεις των αμορραιων οι κατοικουντες την ορεινην
7 And Josue went up from Galgal, and all the army of the warriors with him, most valiant men.	7 και ανεβη ιησους εκ γαλγαλων αυτος και πας ο λαος ο πολεμιστης μετ' αυτου πας δυνατος εν ισχυι
8 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee.	8 και ειπεν κυριος προς ιησουν μη φοβηθης αυτους εις γαρ τας χειρας σου παραδεδωκα αυτους ουχ υπολειφθησεται εξ αυτων ουθεις ενωπιον υμων
9 So Josue going up from Galgal all the night, came upon them suddenly.	9 και επιπαρεγενετο επ' αυτους ιησους αφνω ολην την νυκτα εισεπορευθη εκ γαλγαλων
10 And the Lord troubled them at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda.	10 και εξεστησεν αυτους κυριος απο προσωπου των υιων ισραηλ και συνετριψεν αυτους κυριος συντριψιν μεγαλην εν γαβαων και κατεδιωξαν αυτους οδον αναβασεως ωρωνιν και κατεκοπτον αυτους εως αζηκα και εως μακηδα
11 And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel.	11 εν τω δε φευγειν αυτους απο προσωπου των υιων ισραηλ επι της καταβασεως ωρωνιν και κυριος επερριψεν αυτοις λιθους χαλαζης εκ του ουρανου εως αζηκα και εγενοντο πλειους οι αποθανοντες δια τους λιθους της χαλαζης η ους απεκτειναν οι υιοι ισραηλ μαχαιρα εν τω πολεμω
12 Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon.	12 τοτε ελαλησεν ιησους προς κυριον η ημερα παρεδωκεν ο θεος τον αμορραιον υποχειριον ισραηλ ηνικα συνετριψεν αυτους εν γαβαων και συνετριβησαν απο προσωπου υιων ισραηλ και ειπεν ιησους στητω ο ηλιος κατα γαβαων και η σεληνη κατα φαραγγα αιλων
13 And the sun and the moon stood still, till the people revenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the just? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down the space of one day.	13 και εστη ο ηλιος και η σεληνη εν στασει εως ημυνατο ο θεος τους εχθρους αυτων και εστη ο ηλιος κατα μεσον του ουρανου ου προεπορευετο εις δυσμας εις τελος ημερας μιας
14 There was not before nor after so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel.	14 και ουκ εγενετο ημερα τοιαυτη ουδε το προτερον ουδε το εσχατον ωστε επακουσαι θεον ανθρωπου οτι κυριος συνεπολεμησεν τω ισραηλ
15 And Josue returned with all Israel into the camp of Galgal.	15 -
16 For the five kings were fled, and had hidden themselves in a cave of the city of Maceda.	16 και εφυγον οι πεντε βασιλεις ουτοι και κατεκρυβησαν εις το σπηλαιον το εν μακηδα
17 And it was told Josue that the five kings were found hidden in a cave of the city of Maceda.	17 και απηγγελη τω ιησου λεγοντες ευρηνται οι πεντε βασιλεις κεκρυμμενοι εν τω σπηλαιω τω εν μακηδα
18 And he commanded them that were with him, saying: Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set careful men, to keep them shut up:	18 και ειπεν ιησους κυλισατε λιθους επι το στομα του σπηλαιου και καταστησατε ανδρας φυλασσειν επ' αυτους
19 And stay you not, but pursue after the enemies, and kill all the hindermost of them as they flee, and do not suffer them whom the Lord God hath delivered into your hands to shelter themselves in their cities.	19 υμεις δε μη εστηκατε καταδιωκοντες οπισω των εχθρων υμων και καταλαβετε την ουραγιαν αυτων και μη αφητε εισελθειν εις τας πολεις αυτων παρεδωκεν γαρ αυτους κυριος ο θεος ημων εις τας χειρας ημων
20 So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities.	20 και εγενετο ως κατεπαυσεν ιησους και πας υιος ισραηλ κοπτοντες αυτους κοπην μεγαλην σφοδρα εως εις τελος και οι διασωζομενοι διεσωθησαν εις τας πολεις τας οχυρας
21 And all the army returned to Josue in Maceda, where the camp then was, in good health and without the loss of any one: and no man durst move his tongue against the children of Israel.	21 και απεστραφη πας ο λαος προς ιησουν εις μακηδα υγιεις και ουκ εγρυξεν ουθεις των υιων ισραηλ τη γλωσση αυτου
22 And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me the five kings that lie hid therein.	22 και ειπεν ιησους ανοιξατε το σπηλαιον και εξαγαγετε τους πεντε βασιλεις τουτους εκ του σπηλαιου
23 And the ministers did as they were commanded: and they brought out to him the five kings out of the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon.	23 και εξηγαγοσαν τους πεντε βασιλεις εκ του σπηλαιου τον βασιλεα ιερουσαλημ και τον βασιλεα χεβρων και τον βασιλεα ιεριμουθ και τον βασιλεα λαχις και τον βασιλεα οδολλαμ
24 And when they were Drought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them,	24 και επει εξηγαγον αυτους προς ιησουν και συνεκαλεσεν ιησους παντα ισραηλ και τους εναρχομενους του πολεμου τους συμπορευομενους αυτω λεγων αυτοις προπορευεσθε και επιθετε τους ποδας υμων επι τους τραχηλους αυτων και προσελθοντες επεθηκαν τους ποδας αυτων επι τους τραχηλους αυτων
25 He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.	25 και ειπεν προς αυτους ιησους μη φοβηθητε αυτους μηδε δειλιασητε ανδριζεσθε και ισχυετε οτι ουτως ποιησει κυριος πασι τοις εχθροις υμων ους υμεις καταπολεμειτε αυτους
26 And Josue struck, and slew them, and hanged them upon five gibbets, and they hung until the evening.	26 και απεκτεινεν αυτους ιησους και εκρεμασεν αυτους επι πεντε ξυλων και ησαν κρεμαμενοι επι των ξυλων εως εσπερας
27 And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day.	27 και εγενηθη προς ηλιου δυσμας ενετειλατο ιησους και καθειλον αυτους απο των ξυλων και ερριψαν αυτους εις το σπηλαιον εις ο κατεφυγοσαν εκει και επεκυλισαν λιθους επι το σπηλαιον εως της σημερον ημερας
28 The same day Josue took Maceda and destroyed it, with the edge of the sword, and killed the king and all the inhabitants thereof: he left not in it the least remains. And he did to the king of Maceda, as he had done to the king of Jericho.	28 και την μακηδα ελαβοσαν εν τη ημερα εκεινη και εφονευσαν αυτην εν στοματι ξιφους και εξωλεθρευσαν παν εμπνεον εν αυτη και ου κατελειφθη εν αυτη ουδεις διασεσωσμενος και διαπεφευγως και εποιησαν τω βασιλει μακηδα ον τροπον εποιησαν τω βασιλει ιεριχω
29 And he passed from Maceda with all Israel to Lebna, and fought against it:	29 και απηλθεν ιησους και πας ισραηλ μετ' αυτου εκ μακηδα εις λεβνα και επολιορκει λεβνα
30 And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof. They left not in it any remains. And they did to the king of Lebna, as they had done to the king of Jericho.	30 και παρεδωκεν αυτην κυριος εις χειρας ισραηλ και ελαβον αυτην και τον βασιλεα αυτης και εφονευσαν αυτην εν στοματι ξιφους και παν εμπνεον εν αυτη και ου κατελειφθη εν αυτη ουδε εις διασεσωσμενος και διαπεφευγως και εποιησαν τω βασιλει αυτης ον τροπον εποιησαν τω βασιλει ιεριχω
31 From Lebna he passed unto Lachis, with all Israel: and investing it with his army, besieged it.	31 και απηλθεν ιησους και πας ισραηλ μετ' αυτου εκ λεβνα εις λαχις και περιεκαθισεν αυτην και επολιορκει αυτην
32 And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna.	32 και παρεδωκεν κυριος την λαχις εις τας χειρας ισραηλ και ελαβεν αυτην εν τη ημερα τη δευτερα και εφονευσαν αυτην εν στοματι ξιφους και εξωλεθρευσαν αυτην ον τροπον εποιησαν την λεβνα
33 At that time Horam king of Gazer, came up to succour Lachis: and Josue slew him with all his people, so as to leave none alive.	33 τοτε ανεβη αιλαμ βασιλευς γαζερ βοηθησων τη λαχις και επαταξεν αυτον ιησους εν στοματι ξιφους και τον λαον αυτου εως του μη καταλειφθηναι αυτων σεσωσμενον και διαπεφευγοτα
34 And he passed from Lachis to Eglon, and surrounded it,	34 και απηλθεν ιησους και πας ισραηλ μετ' αυτου εκ λαχις εις οδολλαμ και περιεκαθισεν αυτην και επολιορκησεν αυτην
35 And took it the same day: and put to the sword all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Lachis.	35 και παρεδωκεν αυτην κυριος εν χειρι ισραηλ και ελαβεν αυτην εν τη ημερα εκεινη και εφονευσεν αυτην εν στοματι ξιφους και παν εμπνεον εν αυτη εφονευσαν ον τροπον εποιησαν τη λαχις
36 He went up also with all Israel from Eglon to Hebron, and fought against it:	36 και απηλθεν ιησους και πας ισραηλ μετ' αυτου εις χεβρων και περιεκαθισεν αυτην
37 Took it, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword: the king also thereof, and all the towns of that country, and all the souls that dwelt in it: he left not therein any remains: as he had done to Eglon, so did he also to Hebron, putting to the sword all that he found in it.	37 και επαταξεν αυτην εν στοματι ξιφους και παν εμπνεον οσα ην εν αυτη ουκ ην διασεσωσμενος ον τροπον εποιησαν την οδολλαμ εξωλεθρευσαν αυτην και οσα ην εν αυτη
38 Returning from thence to Dabir,	38 και απεστρεψεν ιησους και πας ισραηλ εις δαβιρ και περικαθισαντες αυτην
39 He took it and destroyed it: the king also thereof and all the towns round about he destroyed with the edge of the sword: he left not in it any remains: as he had done to Hebron and Lebna and to their kings, so did he to Dabir and to the king thereof.	39 ελαβον αυτην και τον βασιλεα αυτης και τας κωμας αυτης και επαταξαν αυτην εν στοματι ξιφους και εξωλεθρευσαν αυτην και παν εμπνεον εν αυτη και ου κατελιπον αυτη ουδενα διασεσωσμενον ον τροπον εποιησαν την χεβρων και τω βασιλει αυτης ουτως εποιησαν τη δαβιρ και τω βασιλει αυτης
40 So Josue conquered all the country of the hills and of the south and of the plain, and of Asedoth, with their kings: he left not any remains therein, but slew all that breathed, as the Lord the God of Israel had commanded him,	40 και επαταξεν ιησους πασαν την γην της ορεινης και την ναγεβ και την πεδινην και την ασηδωθ και τους βασιλεις αυτης ου κατελιπον αυτων σεσωσμενον και παν εμπνεον ζωης εξωλεθρευσεν ον τροπον ενετειλατο κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ
41 From Cadesbarne even to Gaza. All the land of Gosen even to Gabaon,	41 απο καδης βαρνη εως γαζης πασαν την γοσομ εως της γαβαων
42 And all their kings, and their lands he took and wasted at one onset: for the Lord the God of Israel fought for him.	42 και παντας τους βασιλεις αυτων και την γην αυτων επαταξεν ιησους εις απαξ οτι κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ συνεπολεμει τω ισραηλ
43 And he returned with all Israel to the place of the camp in Galgal.
