< Yosua 11 >

1 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,
And it came to pass, that, when Yabin the king of Chazor heard these things, he sent to Yobab the king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 kepada raja-raja di pegunungan sebelah utara, di Lembah Yordan sebelah selatan Galilea, di daerah kaki pegunungan, dan di daerah pesisir dekat Dor.
And to the kings that were at the north, on the mountains, and in the plains, south of Kinneroth, and in the lowlands, and in the district of Dor on the west,
3 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.
To the Canaanites on the east and on the west, and to the Emorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites in the mountains, and to the Hivites under Chermon in the land of Mizpah.
4 Maka datanglah raja-raja itu dengan semua tentara mereka yang sangat banyak seperti pasir di pantai. Kuda dan kereta perang mereka pun banyak sekali.
And they went out, they and all their camps with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea-shore in multitude, and with very many horses and chariots.
5 Semua raja-raja itu bergabung dan bersama-sama datang bermarkas di dekat anak Sungai Merom untuk menyerang Israel.
And all these kings assembled themselves together, and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
6 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."
And the Lord said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them; for tomorrow about this time will I give all of them up slain before Israel: their horses shalt thou hamstring and their chariots shalt thou burn with fire.
7 Maka Yosua dengan semua tentaranya menyerang musuh itu secara mendadak dekat anak Sungai Merom.
And Joshua and all the people of war with him came upon them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
8 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.
And the Lord delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and pursued them unto great Zidon, and unto Missrephoth-mayim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none that escaped.
9 Yosua melakukan terhadap mereka sesuai dengan apa yang telah diperintahkan oleh TUHAN: ia melumpuhkan kuda mereka, dan membakar kereta-kereta perang mereka.
And Joshua did unto them as the Lord had said unto him: their horses he hamstringed and their chariots he burnt with fire.
10 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.
And Joshua at that time turned back, and captured Chazor, and its kings he smote with the sword; for Chazor aforetimes was the head of all these kingdoms.
And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, and devoted them; there was not left any one having breath; and Chazor he burnt with fire.
12 Semua kota-kota itu direbut oleh Yosua, dan raja-rajanya ditangkap dan dibunuh sesuai dengan perintah Musa, hamba TUHAN itu.
And all the cities of these kings, and all their kings, did Joshua capture, and he smote them with the edge of the sword, and he devoted them, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded.
13 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.
But as for the cities that had been left standing in their strength, these did Israel not burn: save Chazor only did Joshua burn.
14 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.
And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, did the children of Israel take as booty unto themselves; but all the men they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them: they left not any one having breath.
15 Semua yang diperintahkan TUHAN kepada Musa, hamba-Nya, telah disampaikan oleh Musa kepada Yosua, dan dilaksanakan oleh Yosua; tidak satu pun yang tidak dilaksanakannya.
As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua: he left nothing undone of all that the Lord had commanded Moses.
16 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.
And Joshua took all that land, the mountain, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowlands, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and its lowlands;
17 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.
From the bald mountain that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Chermon; and all their kings he captured, and smote them, and slew them.
A long time did Joshua make war with all these kings.
19 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.
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gib'on: the whole they took by war.
20 TUHAN membuat mereka berkeras hati untuk berperang dengan orang Israel, supaya mereka dimusnahkan, dan dibunuh semua tanpa ampun sesuai dengan perintah TUHAN kepada Musa.
For of the Lord it was to harden their heart, that they should come against Israel in battle, in order to destroy them utterly, that they might obtain no favor: but in order that he might exterminate them, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
21 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.
And Joshua came at that time, and cut off the 'Anakim from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from 'Anab, and from the whole mountain of Judah, and from the whole mountain of Israel: with their cities did Joshua destroy them utterly.
22 Tidak seorang pun dari bangsa Enak itu yang tersisa di daerah Israel, hanya di Gaza, Gat, dan Asdod masih ada.
There was none of the 'Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gazzah, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained some.
23 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.
And Joshua' took the whole land, all just as the Lord had spoken unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel, according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
