  • These went out with all their host, a great multitude, as the sand of the sea, and many horses and chariots.
  • And all these kings gathered themselves together, and came and pitched by the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
  • And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for to morrow about this time will I give them all to be slain before the children of Israel: their horses shalt thou cause to cease, and their chariots shalt thou burn with fire.
  • And Joshua came suddenly upon them, and all the people of war with him, by the water of Merom, and overtook them.
  • And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, and smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto the warm waters, and unto the breadth of Mizpeh toward the east, and smote them, until there was none left of them.

  • So Joshua took all this land in the mountains, and all that lieth southward, and all the land of Goshen, and the grounds, and the fields, and the mountains of Israel with their bases, 17. From the mountains that divide the land up to Seir, unto Baal-gad, in the breadth of mount Lebanon, under mount Hermon. And all their kings he overcame, and smote them, and slew them.
  • But he contended with these kings a long time.
  • And there was no city that yielded peaceably unto the children of Israel, save the Hivites that dwelt at Gibeon: but they took them all by battle.
  • And it came to pass from the LORD, that their hearts were hardened to meet the children of Israel with strife, that they might be utterly destroyed, and that no mercy might be shown them, but that they might be destroyed, as the LORD commanded Moses.
  • And it came to pass at that time, that Joshua came and cut off the Enakims from the mountains, from Hebron, and from Debir, and from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel, and bound them with their cities.
