- 约书亚夺了那全地,就是山地,一带南地,歌珊全地,高原,亚拉巴,以色列的山地,和山下的高原。
- 从上西珥的哈拉山,直到黑门山下利巴嫩平原的巴力迦得,并且擒获那些地的诸王,将他们杀死。
- 约书亚和这诸王争战了许多年日。
- 除了基遍的希未人之外,没有一城与以色列人讲和的,都是以色列人争战夺来的。
- 因为耶和华的意思是要使他们心里刚硬,来与以色列人争战,好叫他们尽被杀灭,不蒙怜悯,正如耶和华所吩咐摩西的。

- So Joshua took this entire land: the hill country, all the Negev, the whole region of Goshen, the western foothills, the Arabah and the mountains of Israel with their foothills,
- from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, to Baal Gad in the Valley of Lebanon below Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings and struck them down, putting them to death.
- Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long time.
- Except for the Hivites living in Gibeon, not one city made a treaty of peace with the Israelites, who took them all in battle.
- For it was the LORD himself who hardened their hearts to wage war against Israel, so that he might destroy them totally, exterminating them without mercy, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
