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,

¹A stalo sa, keď počul o tom Jabin, kráľ Chácora, že poslal posolstvo k Jobábovi, kráľovi Mádona, a ku kráľovi Šimrona a ku kráľovi Achšafa,

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,

²jako aj ku kráľom, ktorí boli od severa na vrchoch i na rovine južne od Kineróta i na nížine i na výšine Dóra od mora, na západe,

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.

³ku Kananejovi na východe i na západe i k Amorejovi, Hetejovi, Ferezejovi, Jebuzejovi na vrchoch a k Hevejovi pod Hermonom v zemi Micpa.

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.

⁴A vyšli oni aj všetky ich vojská s nimi, mnoho ľudstva, jako piesku, ktorý je na brehu mora čo do množstva, i koní i vozov veľmi mnoho.

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

⁵A síduc sa všetci tí kráľovia prišli a táborili spoločne pri vodách Mérom, aby bojovali proti Izraelovi.

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.

⁶A Hospodin riekol Jozuovi: Neboj sa ich, lebo zajtra o tomto čase ich ja vydám všetkých, aby boli pobití pred Izraelom. Ich koňom popodrezuješ žily a ich vozy spáliš ohňom.

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

⁷A tak prišiel na nich Jozua i všetok bojovný ľud s ním ku vodám Mérom neočakávane a dopadli na nich.

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

⁸A Hospodin ich vydal do ruky Izraela, a bili ich a honili ich až po veľký Sidon a až po Misrefót-májim a až po údolie Micpe na východ, a bili ich, až im neponechali nikoho živého.

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

⁹A Jozua im učinil tak, ako mu rozkázal Hospodin. Ich koňom popodrezoval žily a ich vozy spálil ohňom.

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.

¹⁰A Jozua sa vrátil toho času a zaujal Chácor a jeho kráľa zabil mečom, lebo Chácor bol predtým hlavou všetkých tých kráľovstiev.

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.

¹¹A pobili všetky duše, ktoré boly v ňom, ostrím meča zarieknuc ich na záhubu; nezostalo niktorej duše živej, a Chácor spálil ohňom.

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.

¹²A všetky mestá tých kráľov a všetkých ich kráľov zaujal Jozua a pobil ich ostrím meča zarieknuc ich na záhubu, tak ako prikázal Mojžiš, služobník Hospodinov.

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

¹³Ale z miest, ktoré stály na svojom návrší, nespálil Izrael niktorého; iba Chácor samotný spálil Jozua.

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.

¹⁴A všetku korisť tých miest i dobytok ulúpili sebe synovia Izraelovi. Len ľudí bili všetkých ostrím meča, dokiaľ ich nevyhladili. Neponechali niktorej duše.

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.

¹⁵Jako prikázal Hospodin Mojžišovi, svojmu služobníkovi, tak prikázal i Mojžiš Jozuovi, a tak učinil Jozua; nenechal nevykonaného ani slova zo všetkého toho, čo prikázal Hospodin Mojžišovi.

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;

¹⁶A tedy vzal Jozua celú tú zem, vrchy aj celý juh i celú zem Góšen i nížinu i rovinu i pohorie Izraelovo i jeho nížiny.

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

¹⁷Od Lysého vrchu, ktorý sa tiahne hore do Seira až po Baalgáda na doline Libanona pod vrchom Hermonom, i všetkých ich kráľov zajal a zbil ich a pobil ich.

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

¹⁸Dlhý čas viedol Jozua vojnu so všetkými tými kráľmi.

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.

¹⁹Nebolo mesta, ktoré by bolo učinilo pokoj so synmi Izraelovými krome Heveja, obyvateľov to Gibeona; všetky ostatné pobrali v boji.

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 favor, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.

²⁰Lebo to bolo od Hospodina, aby zatvrdili svoje srdce a vyšli bojovať s Izraelom nato, aby ich úplne vyhubil, zarieknutých na záhubu, aby nemali zľutovania, ale aby ich zahladil, tak ako prikázal Hospodin Mojžišovi.

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.

²¹V tom čase prišiel Jozua a vyplienil Enákov s vrchov, z Hebrona, z Debíra, z Anába a so všetkých vrchov Judska jako i so všetkých vrchov Izraelska, s ich mestami ich vyhladil Jozua, zarieknutých na záhubu.

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.

²²Nezostalo niktorého z Enákov v zemi synov Izraelových, iba v Gaze, v Gáte a v Ašdóte pozostali.

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.

²³A tedy vzal Jozua celú zem podľa všetkého toho, čo hovoril Hospodin Mojžišovi, a Jozua ju dal Izraelovi do dedičstva podľa ich údelov po ich pokoleniach. A tak mala zem pokoj od vojny.
