So Moses ^H4872 gave ^H5414 to them, to the sons ^H1121 of Gad ^H1410, the sons ^H1121 of Reuben ^H7205, and to the half-tribe ^H2677 H7626 of Joseph’s ^H3130 son ^H1121 Manasseh ^H4519, the kingdom ^H4467 of Sihon ^H5511, king ^H4428 of the Amorites ^H567 and the kingdom ^H4467 of Og ^H5747, the king ^H4428 of Bashan ^H1316, the land ^H776 with its cities ^H5892 with their [fn]territories ^H1367, the cities ^H5892 of the surrounding ^H5439 land ^H776.

Now the Canaanite ^H3669, the king ^H4428 of Arad ^H6166 [fn]who ^H1931 lived ^H3427 in the [fn]Negev ^H5045 in the land ^H776 of Canaan ^H3667, heard ^H8085 about the coming ^H935 of the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478.

“So I sent ^H7971 messengers ^H4397 from the wilderness ^H4057 of Kedemoth ^H6932 to Sihon ^H5511 king ^H4428 of Heshbon ^H2809 with words ^H1697 of peace ^H7965, saying ^H559,

“Then we turned ^H6437 and went ^H5927 up ^H5927 the road ^H1870 to Bashan ^H1316, and Og ^H5747, king ^H4428 of Bashan ^H1316, came ^H3318 out ^H3318 [fn]with all ^H3605 his people ^H5971 to meet ^H7122 us in battle ^H4421 at Edrei ^H154.

“So at that time ^H6256 we took ^H3947 the land ^H776 from the hand ^H3027 of the two ^H8147 kings ^H4428 of the Amorites ^H567 who ^H834 were beyond ^H5676 the Jordan ^H3383, from the [fn]Valley ^H5158 of Arnon ^H769 to Mount ^H2022 Hermon ^H2768

“When ^H3588 you enter ^H935 the land ^H776 which ^H834 the LORD ^H3068 your God ^H430 is giving ^H5414 you, and you take ^H3423 possession ^H3423 of it and live ^H3427 in it, and you say ^H559, ‘I will appoint ^H7760 a king ^H4428 over ^H5921 me like all ^H3605 the nations ^H1471 who ^H834 are around ^H5439 me,’

“And He was king ^H4428 in [fn]Jeshurun ^H3484,

When the heads ^H7218 of the people ^H5971 gathered ^H622,

The tribes ^H7626 of Israel ^H3478 together ^H3162.

Now it came ^H1961 about ^H1961 when all ^H3605 the kings ^H4428 of the Amorites ^H567 who ^H834 were beyond ^H5676 the Jordan ^H3383 to the west ^H3220, and all ^H3605 the kings ^H4428 of the Canaanites ^H3669 who ^H834 were by the sea ^H3220, heard ^H8085 how ^H854 H834 the LORD ^H3068 had dried ^H3001 up ^H3001 the waters ^H4325 of the Jordan ^H3383 before ^H4480 H6440 the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 until ^H5704 [fn]they had crossed ^H5674, that their hearts ^H3824 melted ^H4549, and there was no ^H3808 spirit ^H7307 in them any ^H5750 longer ^H5750 because ^H4480 H6440 of the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478.

Now the LORD ^H3068 said ^H559 to Joshua ^H3091, “Do not fear ^H3372 or be dismayed ^H2865. Take ^H3947 all ^H3605 the people ^H5971 of war ^H4421 with you. Arise ^H6965, go ^H5927 up ^H5927 to Ai ^H5857; see ^H7200, I have handed ^H5414 H3027 over ^H5414 to you the king ^H4428 of Ai ^H5857, his people ^H5971, his city ^H5892, and his land ^H776.

Now it came ^H1961 about ^H1961 when all ^H3605 the kings ^H4428 who ^H834 were beyond ^H5676 the Jordan ^H3383, in the hill ^H2022 country ^H2022, the lowland ^H8219, and on all ^H3605 the coast ^H2348 of the Great ^H1419 Sea ^H3220 toward ^H413 H4136 Lebanon ^H3844, the Hittite ^H2850 and the Amorite ^H567, the Canaanite ^H3669, the Perizzite ^H6522, the Hivite ^H2340, and the Jebusite ^H2983, heard ^H8085 about it,

Now it came ^H1961 about ^H1961 when Adoni-zedek ^H139 king ^H4428 of Jerusalem ^H3389 heard ^H8085 that Joshua ^H3091 had captured ^H3920 Ai ^H5857, and had [fn]utterly ^H2763 destroyed ^H2763 it (just ^H834 as he had done ^H6213 to Jericho ^H3405 and its king ^H4428, so ^H3651 he had done ^H6213 to Ai ^H5857 and its king ^H4428), and that the inhabitants ^H3427 of Gibeon ^H1391 had made ^H7999 peace ^H7999 with Israel ^H3478 and were [fn]within ^H7130 their land ^H7130,

Now these ^H428 five ^H2568 kings ^H4428 had fled ^H5127 and hidden ^H2244 themselves in the cave ^H4631 at Makkedah ^H4719.

Then Joshua ^H3091 said ^H559, “Open ^H6605 the mouth ^H6310 of the cave ^H4631 and bring ^H3318 these ^H428 five ^H2568 kings ^H4428 out ^H3318 to me from the cave ^H4631.”

Now Joshua ^H3091 captured ^H3920 Makkedah ^H4719 on that day ^H3117, and struck ^H5221 it and its king ^H4428 with the edge ^H6310 of the sword ^H2719; he [fn]utterly ^H2763 destroyed ^H2763 [fn]it and every ^H3605 [fn]person ^H5315 who ^H834 was in it. He left ^H7604 no ^H3808 survivor ^H8300. So he did ^H6213 to the king ^H4428 of Makkedah ^H4719 just ^H834 as ^H834 he had done ^H6213 to the king ^H4428 of Jericho ^H3405.

Then ^H227 Horam ^H2036 king ^H4428 of Gezer ^H1507 came ^H5927 up ^H5927 to help ^H5826 Lachish ^H3923, and Joshua ^H3091 [fn]defeated ^H5221 him and his people ^H5971 until ^H5704 he had left ^H7604 him no ^H1115 survivor ^H8300.
