⁹ Behold, I have commanded thee, Be strong and of good courage; be not dismayed, neither be thou discouraged; for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

¹² Therefore will the children of Israel not be able to stand up before their enemies; their back will they turn before their enemies, because they have become accursed: I will not be any more with you, except ye destroy the accursed from among you.

¹ 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 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 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 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 And all these kings assembled themselves together, and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel. ⁶ 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 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 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 And Joshua did unto them as the Lord had said unto him: their horses he hamstringed and their chariots he burnt with fire.

¹² Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the Lord spoke on that day; for thou didst hear on that day that the ‘Anakim were there, and great fortified cities: perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I shall drive them out, as the Lord hath spoken.

¹⁶ And the children of Joseph said, The mountain will not be enough for us; and chariots of iron are belonging to all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley, to those who are at Beth-shean and its towns, and to those who are in the valley of Yizre’el. ¹⁷ And Joshua said unto the house of Joseph, to Ephraim and to Menasseh, as followeth, Thou art a numerous people, and hast great power; thou shalt not have one lot only; ¹⁸ But the mountain shall be thine; it is indeed a wood, yet thou canst cut it down; and the terminations of it shall be thine; for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, though they be strong.

² And the Lord said, Judah shall go up; behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.

²⁷ Neither did Menasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its towns, nor Ta’anach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Yible’am and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites succeeded to remain in this land. ²⁸ And it came to pass, when Israel became strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute; but they did not drive them out entirely. ²⁹ Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; and the Canaanites dwelt in the midst of them at Gezer. ³⁰ Zebulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; and the Canaanites dwelt in the midst of them, and became tributary. ³¹ Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of ‘Akko, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Achlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Chelbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rechob; ³² And the Asherites dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not drive them out.

¹² And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valor. ¹³ And Gid’on said unto him, Pardon, my lord, if the Lord be indeed with us, why then hath all this befallen us? and where are all his wonders of which our fathers have told us, saying, Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt! But now the Lord hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hand of Midian.

¹⁰ And David went on, and became greater and greater, and the Lord the God of hosts was with him.

⁷ And the Lord was with him; whithersoever he went forth he prospered: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.

^{7 (46:8)} The Lord of hosts is with us; a defense unto us is the God of Jacob. Selah.

^{9 (46:10)} He causeth wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in pieces; he burneth wagons in the fire.

^{11 (46:12)} The Lord of hosts is with us; a defence unto us is the God of Jacob. Selah.

^{12 (60:14)} Through God shall we do valiantly: and he it is that will tread down our assailants.

¹⁴ Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: behold, this young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and she shall call his name ‘Immanu-el, God with us.

¹⁰ Take counsel together, yet shall it come to naught; speak the word, and it shall not stand firm; for with us is God.

¹⁰ Fear thou not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I strengthen thee, yea, I help thee, yea, I uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

¹⁴ Fear not, thou worm Jacob, ye few men of Israel: I myself help thee, saith the Lord, and thy redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. ¹⁵ Behold, I have rendered thee a threshing instrument, sharp, new, having many teeth: thou shalt thresh mountains, and beat them small, and shalt render the hills as chaff.

²⁴ But my servant Caleb, as a reward that he had another spirit with him, and followed me fully,—therefore will I bring him into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it.

³⁶ Save Caleb the son of Yephunneh, he shall see it, and to him will I give the land upon which he hath trodden, and to his children; because he hath wholly followed the Lord.

⁹ And Moses swore on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy foot hath trodden shall belong to thee for an inheritance, and to thy children for ever; because thou hast wholly followed the Lord my God. ¹⁰ And now, behold, the Lord hath kept me alive, as he hath spoken: it is now forty and five years since the Lord spoke this word unto Moses, while Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now, behold, I am this day eighty and five years old. ¹¹ I am yet this day as strong as I was on the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, and to go out, and to come in. ¹² Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the Lord spoke on that day; for thou didst hear on that day that the ‘Anakim were there, and great fortified cities: perhaps the Lord will be with me, and I shall drive them out, as the Lord hath spoken. ¹³ And Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron unto Caleb the son of Yephunneh for an inheritance. ¹⁴ Therefore did Hebron become the inheritance of Caleb the son of Yephunneh the Kenizzite unto this day; for the cause that he had wholly followed the Lord the God of Israel.

¹³ And unto Caleb the son of Yephunneh he gave as a portion among the children of Judah, according to the order of the Lord to Joshua, Kiryath-arba’ the father of ‘Anak, which is Hebron. ¹⁴ And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of ‘Anak, Sheshai, and Achiman, and Talmai, the children of ‘Anak.

¹¹ And they gave unto them Kiryath-arba’, the father of ‘Anak, which is Hebron, in the mountain of Judah, with the open spaces thereof round about it; ¹² But the fields of the city, and its villages, they gave to Caleb the son of Yephunneh for his possession.

¹⁰ And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron; now the name of Hebron was formerly Kiryath-arba’;and they smote Sheshai, and Achiman, and Talmai.

¹¹ And the lot of the tribe of the children of Benjamin came up according to their families; and the boundary of their lot came forth between the children of Judah and the children of Joseph. ¹² And their boundary was on the north side starting from the Jordan; and the boundary went up to the side of Jericho on the north, and went up through the mountains westward; and its terminations were at the wilderness of Beth-aven. ¹³ And the boundary went over from there toward Luz, to the south side of Luz, which is Beth-el; and the boundary descended to ‘Atroth-addar, upon the mount that is on the south side of the lower Beth-choron. ¹⁴ And the border extended thence, and fetched a compass to the west side, to the south of the mount that is before Beth-choron at the south; and its terminations were at Kiryath-ba’al, which is Kiryath-ye’arim, a city of the children of Judah: this was the west side. ¹⁵ And the south side commenced from the end of Kiryath-ye’arim, and the boundary went out on the west, and went out to the spring of the waters of Nephtoach: ¹⁶ And the boundary went down to the end of the mountain that is before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of Rephaim at the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of the Jebusi on the south, and descended to ‘Enrogel, ¹⁷ And extended northwardly, and went forth to ‘En-shemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is opposite to the ascent of Adummim, and descended to Eben-bohan the son of Reuben, ¹⁸ And passed along on this side opposite to ‘Arabah northward; and went down unto ‘Arabah; ¹⁹ And the boundary passed along to the side of Beth-choglah northward; and the terminations of the border were at the north bay of the Salt Sea at the south end of the Jordan: this was the south boundary. ²⁰ And the Jordan bounded it on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, by its boundaries round about, according to their families. ²¹ Now these were the cities of the tribe of the children of Benjamin according to their families, Jericho, and Beth-choglah, and ‘Emekkeziz, ²² And Beth-ha’arabah, and Zemarayim, and Beth-el, ²³ And Avvim, and Parah, and ‘Ophrah, ²⁴ And Kephar-ha’ammonah, and ‘Ophni, and Geba’: twelve cities with their villages. ²⁵ Gib’on, and Ramah, and Beeroth, ²⁶ And Mizpeh, and Kephirah, and Mozah, ²⁷ And Rekem, and Yirpeel, and Taralah, ²⁸ And Zela’, Eleph, and Jebusi, which is Jerusalem, Gib’ath, and Kiryath: fourteen cities with their villages. This is the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.

⁸ And the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and captured it, and they smote it with the edge of the sword, and the city they set on fire.

¹⁰ But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and went away, and came as far as opposite Jebus, which is Jerusalem; and he had with him two saddled asses, and his concubine also was with him. ¹¹ When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said unto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn in unto this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it. ¹² And his master said unto him, We will not turn into one of the cities of the stranger, that are not belonging to the children of Israel; but we will pass on as far as Gib’ah.

⁶ And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land; who said unto David, as followeth, Thou shalt not come in hither, except thou first remove away the blind and the lame: meaning, David cannot come in hither. ⁷ Nevertheless David captured the strong-hold of Zion; the same is the city of David. ⁸ And David said on that day, Whosoever will smite the Jebusites, and reach the aqueduct and the lame and the blind, that are hateful to David’s soul,—Wherefore people usually say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house. ⁹ And David dwelt in the fort, and he called it “The City of David.” And David built it round about from the Millo and inward.

²⁴ But his bow abode in strength, and his arm and his hands remained firm; from the hands of the mighty God of Jacob, from there thou becamest the shepherd, the stone of Israel.

¹⁰ Of the children of Joseph, of Ephraim: Elishama the son of ‘Ammihud; of Menasseh: Gamliel the son of Pedahzur.

³² Of the children of Joseph, namely, of the children of Ephraim, by their generations, after their families, by the descent from their fathers, by numbering the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war.

⁴ For the children of Joseph were two tribes, Menasseh and Ephraim; therefore they gave no portion unto the Levites in the land, save cities to dwell in, with their open spaces for their cattle and for their substance.

¹ And the lot of the children of Joseph fell from the Jordan by Jericho, unto the waters of Jericho on the east, to the wilderness that goeth up from Jericho by the mount Beth-el, ² And the boundary went out from Beth-el to Luz, and passed along unto the boundary of the Arkites to ‘Ataroth, ³ And went down westward to the boundary of the Yaphleti, unto the border of Beth-choron the lower, and to Gezer; and its terminations were toward the sea. ⁴ This did the children of Joseph, Menasseh and Ephraim, take as their inheritance.

¹⁹ And the Lord was with Judah; and he took possession of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.

²⁹ And by the borders of the children of Menasseh: Beth-shean and its villages, Ta’nach and its villages, Megiddo and its villages, Dor and its villages. In these dwelt the children of Joseph the son of Israel.

¹⁹ And he called the name of that place Beth-el; but Luz was the name of that city in former times.

⁶ So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Beth-el, he and all the people that were with him.

³ And Jacob said unto Joseph, God, the Almighty, appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,

¹ And Joshua, the son of Nun, had sent out from Shittim two men as spies, secretly, saying, Go ye, view the land and especially Jericho; and they went, and came unto the house of a woman, a harlot, whose name was Rachab, and they lodged there.

² And Joshua sent men from Jericho to ‘Ai, which is beside Beth-aven, on the east side of Beth-el, and said unto them, thus, Go up and spy out the country. And the men went up and spied out ‘Ai.

² And the children of Dan sent from their family five men from among themselves, men of valor, from Zor’ah, and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it; and they said unto them, Go, search the land. And they came to the mountain of Ephraim, as far as the house of Micah, and lodged there.

¹² And now swear, I pray you, unto me by the Lord, because I have shown you kindness, that ye will also, for your part, show kindness, unto my father’s house; and give me a sure token, ¹³ That ye will preserve the life of my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death. ¹⁴ And the men said unto her, Our life shall be doomed to death instead of yours, if ye tell not this our business; and it shall be, when the Lord giveth us the land, that we will show thee kindness and truth.

¹⁵ And David said to him, Wilt thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear unto me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, and that thou wilt not surrender me into the hand of my master, and then will I bring thee down to this troop.

²² But unto the two men that had spied out the country, Joshua said, Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out thence the woman, and all belonging to her, as ye have sworn unto her. ²³ And the young men, the spies, went in, and brought out Rachab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all belonging to her: and they brought out all her kindred, and they left them without the camp of Israel. ²⁴ And the city they burnt with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of copper and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord. ²⁵ And Rachab the harlot did Joshua save alive, and her father’s household, and all belonging to her; and she dwelt in the midst of Israel even unto this day; because she had hidden the messengers, whom Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho.

⁶ For the Lord had caused the camp of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, the noise of a large army: and they said one to the other, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.

¹⁷ And they brought up, and fetched out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means.

³² Thou shalt not make a covenant with them, nor with their gods.

¹¹ And to Menasseh belonged in Issachar and in Asher Beth-shean and its towns, and Yible’am and its towns, together with the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of ‘En-dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Ta’anach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, namely the three districts. ¹² Yet the children of Menasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of these cities; but the Canaanites succeeded to dwell in this land; ¹³ Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were become strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute; but they did not drive them out.

²⁵ And from the half tribe of Menasseh, Ta’nach with its open spaces, and Gath-rimmon with its open spaces: two cities.

¹ And it came to pass after the death of Joshua, that the children of Israel asked the Lord, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites at the first, to fight against them?

¹⁹ There came kings, and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan, in Ta’anach by the waters of Megiddo: gain of money they took not away.

⁹ But Saul together with the people had pity on Agag, and on the best of the flocks, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the fat lambs, and all that was good, and they would not destroy them; but all the cattle that was of little value and weak, that they destroyed.

³⁴ They did not exterminate the nations, that the Lord had indicated to them; ³⁵ But they mingled themselves among the nations, and learned their doings.

¹⁰ Cursed be he that doth the work of the Lord negligently, and cursed be he that withholdeth his sword from blood.

¹⁰ And they drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among the Ephraimites until this day, and became tributary servants.

¹⁶ (Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and captured Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the city, and given it as a marriage-present unto his daughter, Solomon’s wife.

¹⁵ And Kattath, and Nahallal, and Shimron, and Yidalah, and Beth-lechem: twelve cities with their villages.

²⁴ And then came out the fifth lot for the tribe of the children of Asher according to their families. ²⁵ And their boundary was Chelkath, and Chali, and Beten, and Achshaph, ²⁶ And Allammelech, and ‘Am’ad, and Mishal; and it touched on Carmel at the sea, and on Shichor-libnath; ²⁷ And it turned toward the rising of the sun to Beth-dagon, and touched on Zebulun, and on the valley of Yiphthach-el at the north, on Beth-ha’emek, and Ne’iel, and went out to Cabul on the left, ²⁸ And ‘Ebron, and Rechob, and Chammon, and Kanah, up to Zidon the great city, ²⁹ And then the boundary turned back to Ramah, and to the city of Mibzar-zor; and then the boundary turned back to Chossah; and the terminations were by the sea in the district toward Achzib; ³⁰ And ‘Ummah and Aphek, and Rechob: twenty and two cities with their villages.

³² Unto the children of Naphtali came out the sixth lot, for the children of Naphtali according to their families. ³³ And their boundary was from Cheleph, from Allon-beza-’anannim, and Adami-hanekeb, and Yabneel, as far as Lakkum; and its terminations were at the Jordan; ³⁴ And then the boundary turned westward to Aznoth-tabor, and went out from there to Chukkok, and touched on Zebulun on the south, and touched on Asher on the west, and on Judah upon the Jordan toward the rising of the sun. ³⁵ And fortified cities, Ziddim, Zer, and Chammath, Rakkath, and Kinnereth, ³⁶ And Adamah, and Ramah, and Chazor, ³⁷ And Kedesh, and Edre’i, and ‘En-chazor, ³⁸ And Yiron, and Migdal-el, Chorem, and Beth-’anath, and Beth-shemesh: nineteen cities with their villages.

³⁰ Zebulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; and the Canaanites dwelt in the midst of them, and became tributary.

³⁵ And the Emorites succeeded to remain on mount Cheres, in Ayalon, and in Sha’albim; but when the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, they became tributary.

^{24 (18:25)} Therefore did the Lord recompense me according to my righteousness, according to the purity of my hands before his eyes.

⁴⁷ And the territory of the children of Dan went out beyond these; for the children of Dan went up and fought against Leshem, and captured it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and took possession of it, and dwelt therein, and they called Leshem, Dan, after the name of Dan their father.

¹ In those days there was no king in Israel; and in those days the tribe of the Danites were seeking for themselves an inheritance to dwell in; for there had not fallen to their share up to that day among the tribes of Israel a sufficient inheritance.

¹² Then spoke Joshua to the Lord on the day when the Lord delivered up the Emorites before the children of Israel, and he said before the eyes of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gib’on; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ayalon.

⁴² And Sha’alabbin, and Ayalon, and Yithlah,

¹² Then died Elon the Zebulonite, and was buried in Ayalon in the country of Zebulun.

⁹ Ben-deker, in Makaz, and in Sha’albim, and Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-chanan;

⁴ And the border shall turn for you from the south of the ascent of ‘Akrabbim, and pass on to Zin; and its terminating points shall be to the south of Kadesh-barnea’, and shall go on to Chazar-addar, and pass on to Azmon;

² And their southern boundary was from the end of the salt sea, from the bay that bendeth southward: ³ And it went out to the south of the heights of ‘Akrabbim, and passed along to Zin, and ascended up on the south side unto Kadesh-barnea, and passed along to Chezron, and went up to Adar, and fetched a compass to Karka’;
