Joshua 11

1 And when Jabin, the king of Hazor, had heard these things, he sent to Jobab, the king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,

Ketika Raja Yabin dari Hazor mendengar tentang kemenangan-kemenangan Israel, ia mengutus orang kepada Raja Yobab dari kota Madon, kepada raja-raja kota Simron dan Akhsaf,

2 also to the kings of the north, who were living in the mountains, and in the plains opposite the southern region of Chinneroth, and also in the plains and the regions of Dor, beside the sea,

kepada raja-raja di pegunungan sebelah utara, di Lembah Yordan sebelah selatan Galilea, di daerah kaki pegunungan, dan di daerah pesisir dekat Dor.

3 also to the Canaanites, from east to west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, also to the Hivite who was living at the base of Hermon, in the land of Mizpah.

Ia juga mengutus orang kepada orang Kanaan di sebelah barat dan sebelah timur Yordan, kepada orang Amori, Het, Feris, dan orang Yebus di daerah pegunungan, serta orang Hewi di kaki Gunung Hermon di daerah Mizpa.

4 And they all went forth with their troops, a people exceedingly numerous, like the sand that is on the shore of the sea. And their horses and chariots were an immense multitude.

Maka datanglah raja-raja itu dengan semua tentara mereka yang sangat banyak seperti pasir di pantai. Kuda dan kereta perang mereka pun banyak sekali.

5 And all these kings assembled at the waters of Merom, so that they might fight against Israel.

Semua raja-raja itu bergabung dan bersama-sama datang bermarkas di dekat anak Sungai Merom untuk menyerang Israel.

6 And the Lord said to Joshua: “You should not fear them. For tomorrow, at this same hour, I will deliver all these to be wounded in the sight of Israel. You will hamstring their horses, and you will burn their chariots with fire.”

TUHAN berkata kepada Yosua, "Jangan takut kepada mereka. Pada saat seperti ini besok, mereka semuanya sudah Kubunuh demi Israel. Kuda mereka harus kaulumpuhkan, dan kereta-kereta perang mereka harus kaubakar."

7 And Joshua, and the entire army with him, came against them suddenly, at the waters of Merom, and they rushed upon them.

Maka Yosua dengan semua tentaranya menyerang musuh itu secara mendadak dekat anak Sungai Merom.

8 And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they struck them, and they pursued them as far as the great Sidon, and the waters of Misrephoth, and the field of Mizpeh, which is toward the eastern region. He struck them all, so that nothing was left of them to remain.

Dan TUHAN membuat umat Israel menang atas mereka. Orang Israel menyerang dan mengejar mereka sampai sejauh Misrefot-Maim dan Sidon di sebelah utara, dan sejauh Lembah Mizpa di sebelah timur. Pertempuran terus berkobar sampai tidak seorang pun dari musuh yang tersisa--semuanya mati.

9 And he did just as the Lord had instructed him. He hamstrung their horses, and he burned their chariots with fire.

Yosua melakukan terhadap mereka sesuai dengan apa yang telah diperintahkan oleh TUHAN: ia melumpuhkan kuda mereka, dan membakar kereta-kereta perang mereka.

10 And turning back, he immediately seized Hazor. And he struck down its king with the sword. For Hazor, from antiquity, held the first position among all these kingdoms.

Sesudah Yosua kembali, lalu merebut Hazor yang pada waktu itu adalah yang terkuat di antara semua kerajaan di situ. Kota itu dibakar, serta raja dan seluruh penduduknya dibunuh; tidak seorang pun dibiarkan hidup.

11 And he struck down all the souls that were staying there. He did not leave in it any remains, but he destroyed everything unto utter annihilation, and he destroyed the city itself with fire.

12 And he seized, struck, and destroyed all the surrounding cities and their kings, just as Moses, the servant of God, had instructed him.

Semua kota-kota itu direbut oleh Yosua, dan raja-rajanya ditangkap dan dibunuh sesuai dengan perintah Musa, hamba TUHAN itu.

13 And except for the cities that were on hills and in elevated places, the rest Israel burned. One only, highly-fortified Hazor, was consumed with fire.

Tetapi kota-kota yang didirikan di atas bukit-bukit puing, tidak satu pun yang dibakar oleh orang Israel, kecuali Hazor yang dibakar oleh Yosua sendiri.

14 And the sons of Israel divided among themselves all the plunder of these cities, and the cattle, putting to death all persons.

Semua penduduk kota-kota itu dibunuh; tidak seorang pun yang dibiarkan hidup. Tetapi semua barang-barangnya yang berharga dan ternaknya diambil oleh orang Israel menjadi milik mereka.

15 Just as the Lord had instructed his servant Moses, so did Moses instruct Joshua, and he fulfilled everything. He did not omit even one word out of all the commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.

Semua yang diperintahkan TUHAN kepada Musa, hamba-Nya, telah disampaikan oleh Musa kepada Yosua, dan dilaksanakan oleh Yosua; tidak satu pun yang tidak dilaksanakannya.

16 And so Joshua seized the entire land of the mountains, and of the south, and the land of Goshen, and the plains, and the western region, and the mountain of Israel, and its plains.

Yosua merebut seluruh negeri itu--daerah pegunungan, daerah kaki gunung, baik yang di utara maupun yang di selatan; juga seluruh wilayah Gosyen dan daerah padang gersang di sebelah selatan Gosyen, serta Lembah Yordan.

17 As for the part of the mountain that ascends to Seir, as far as Baalgad, along the plain of Lebanon under mount Hermon, all their kings he seized, struck down, and killed.

Luas daerah itu mulai dari Pegunungan Gundul di sebelah selatan dekat Edom, sampai ke utara sejauh Baal-Gad di Lembah Libanon sebelah selatan Gunung Hermon. Lama sekali Yosua berperang dengan raja-raja daerah itu, tetapi akhirnya ia menangkap dan membunuh mereka semua.

18 For a long time, Joshua fought against these kings.

19 There was not a city that delivered itself to the sons of Israel, except the Hivites who were living at Gibeon. For he seized it all in warfare.

Dari semua kota-kota di seluruh daerah itu, tidak ada satu kota pun yang membuat perjanjian persahabatan dengan Israel, kecuali Gibeon, kota bangsa Hewi. Semua kota yang lain dikalahkan dalam pertempuran.

20 For it was the sentence of the Lord that their hearts would be hardened, and that they would fight against Israel and fall, and that they did not deserve any clemency, and that they should perish, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

TUHAN membuat mereka berkeras hati untuk berperang dengan orang Israel, supaya mereka dimusnahkan, dan dibunuh semua tanpa ampun sesuai dengan perintah TUHAN kepada Musa.

21 In that time, Joshua went and put to death the Anakim from the mountains, from Hebron and Debir and Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah and Israel. And he destroyed their cities.

Pada masa ini pula Yosua pergi memusnahkan bangsa Enak, yaitu bangsa raksasa yang tinggal di daerah pegunungan--di Hebron, Debir, Anab, dan di seluruh daerah pegunungan Yehuda dan Israel. Mereka semuanya dibunuh oleh Yosua, dan kota-kota mereka dimusnahkan.

22 He did not leave any from the stock of the Anakim in the land of the sons of Israel, except the cities of Gaza, and Gath, and Ashdod, which alone were left behind.

Tidak seorang pun dari bangsa Enak itu yang tersisa di daerah Israel, hanya di Gaza, Gat, dan Asdod masih ada.

23 Thus, Joshua seized all the land, just as the Lord spoke to Moses, and he delivered it as a possession to the sons of Israel, according to their divisions and tribes. And the land rested from battles.

Seluruh negeri itu direbut oleh Yosua sesuai dengan perintah TUHAN kepada Musa, lalu diberikan kepada bangsa Israel menjadi milik mereka. Negeri itu dibagi-bagi, dan setiap suku mendapat satu bagian. Bangsa Israel pun berhenti berperang dan negerinya aman sentosa.
