1So, Jabin, the king of Hazor, heard the tea and hit up Jobab, king of Madon, and the kings of Shimron and Achshaph, like, "Let’s squad up."

2He also reached out to the kings chillin' in the north mountains and the plains south of Chinneroth, plus the valley and the borders of Dor on the west, no cap.

3And to the Canaanites on both sides, the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, and Jebusites in the mountains, plus the Hivites under Hermon in Mizpeh, like, "What’s good?"

4They rolled out with all their crews, mad people, like the sand on the beach, with hella horses and chariots, it was wild.

5When all these kings linked up, they camped by the waters of Merom, ready to throw down against Israel, fr.

6The Lord told Joshua, "Chill, don’t be scared of them: tomorrow, I’m handing them over, all taken out before Israel. You’re gonna chop their horses and burn their chariots, periodt."

7So Joshua and his whole squad pulled up on them by the waters of Merom outta nowhere, and they went savage on them.

8The Lord gave them into Israel's hands, who took them down and chased them all the way to Zidon and Misrephoth-maim, and to the valley of Mizpeh eastward; they didn’t leave a single one standing.

9Joshua did exactly what the Lord said: he chopped their horses and lit their chariots on fire, no cap.

10Then Joshua turned back and took Hazor, and he took out the king with the sword; Hazor was the big boss of all those kingdoms.

11They took out everyone in there with the sword, totally wiped them out; no one was left breathing, and he set Hazor on fire, straight up.

12Joshua took all the cities of those kings, slayed them with the sword, and totally destroyed them, just like Moses told him to do.

13But for the cities that were still standing strong, Israel burned none except Hazor, that one got lit.

14And all the loot from those cities, and the cattle, the Israelites took for themselves; but everyone else they took out with the sword, leaving no one to breathe.

15Just like the Lord told Moses, Moses told Joshua, and Joshua did it; he left nothing undone from what the Lord commanded Moses, fr.

16So Joshua took all that land, the hills, south country, Goshen, the valley, the plain, and the mountain of Israel, you feel me?

17From mount Halak up to Seir, all the way to Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon; he took out all their kings, no mercy.

18Joshua was in war mode for a long time with all those kings.

19Not a single city made peace with Israel, except for the Hivites from Gibeon; all others got taken in battle, no cap.

20It was the Lord's plan to harden their hearts so they’d come against Israel in battle, to wipe them out completely, just like He told Moses to do.

21At that time, Joshua came and took out the Anakims from the mountains—Hebron, Debir, Anab, and all the mountains of Judah and Israel; he wiped them out and their cities, savage.

22There were no Anakims left in the land of Israel, only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod, where they were still chillin'.

23So Joshua took the whole land, just like the Lord said to Moses; he gave it as an inheritance to Israel, divided by their tribes. And the land finally had some peace from war.

1And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,

2And to the kings that were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,

3And to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and to the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.

4And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.

5And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

6And the Lord said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.

7So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.

8And the Lord delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephoth–maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.

9And Joshua did unto them as the Lord bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.

10And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.

11And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.

12And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded.

13But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.

14And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.

15As the Lord commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses.

16So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;

17Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baal–gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.

18Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

19There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle.

20For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the Lord commanded Moses.

21And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.

22There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.

23So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the Lord said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
