¹Kui Jaabin, Haasori kuningas, seda kuulis, siis ta läkitas sõna Maadoni kuningale Joobabile ja Simroni kuningale ja Aksafi kuningale,

¹And it came to pass when Jabin king of Hazor heard [this], that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,

²ja kuningaile, kes olid põhja pool mäestikus ja lagendikul Kinneretist lõunas, ja madalikul ja Doori mäeseljakuil lääne pool,

²and to the kings that were northward in the mountains, and in the plain south of Chinneroth, and in the lowland, and on the upland of Dor on the west,

³kaananlastele ida ja lääne pool, ja emorlastele, hettidele, perislastele ja jebuuslastele mäestikus, ja hiivlastele Hermoni jalamil Mispamaal.

³to 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 at the foot of Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

⁴Need läksid välja ja koos nendega kõik nende sõjaleerid, palju rahvast, nii palju nagu liiva mererannas, ja väga palju hobuseid ja sõjavankreid.

⁴And they went out, they and all their armies with them, a people numerous as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.

⁵Kõik need kuningad kogunesid ja tulid ning lõid üheskoos leeri üles Meeromi vee äärde, et sõdida Iisraeli vastu.

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

⁶Aga Issand ütles Joosuale: 'Ära karda neid, sest homme sel ajal annan ma need kõik lööduina Iisraeli kätte; raiu katki nende hobuste õndlad ja põleta tulega nende sõjavankrid!'

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

⁷Ja Joosua ning koos temaga kõik ta sõjamehed tulid ootamatult nende vastu Meeromi vee ääres ja tungisid neile kallale.

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

⁸Ja Issand andis nad Iisraeli kätte, ja nemad lõid neid ning ajasid taga kuni suure Siidonini, ja kuni Misrefot-Maimini, ja kuni Mispa oruni ida pool; ja nad lõid neid, kuni neile ei jäänud ainsatki pääsenut.

⁸And Jehovah delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and to Misrephoth-maim, and to the valley of Mizpah eastward, and smote them until none were left remaining to them.

⁹Ja Joosua talitas nendega nõnda, nagu Issand temale oli öelnud: ta raius katki nende hobuste õndlad ja põletas tulega nende sõjavankrid.

⁹And Joshua did to them as Jehovah had said to him: he houghed their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.

¹⁰Ja Joosua läks selsamal ajal tagasi ning vallutas Haasori ja lõi selle kuninga mõõgateraga maha, sest Haasor oli varem kõigi nende kuningriikide pealinn.

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

¹¹Ja nad lõid mõõgateraga maha kõik hingelised, kes seal olid, hävitades need sootuks; ühtegi elavat olendit ei jäänud järele, ja ta põletas Haasori tulega.

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

¹²Ja kõik nende kuningate linnad ja kõik nende kuningad sai Joosua oma valdusesse ja ta lõi neid mõõgateraga, hävitades need sootuks, nõnda nagu Mooses, Issanda sulane, oli käskinud.

¹²And all the cities of those kings and all their kings did Joshua take; and he smote them with the edge of the sword, destroying them utterly, as Moses the servant of Jehovah had commanded.

¹³Ühtegi neist linnadest, mis asusid mägedes, Iisrael ei põletanud, peale Haasori, mille Joosua põletas.

¹³Only, all the cities that stood still upon their hills Israel did not burn, save Hazor alone, [which] Joshua burned.

¹⁴Ja kõik neist linnadest saadava saagi ja karjad riisusid Iisraeli lapsed endile, lüües mõõgateraga maha ainult kõik inimesed, kuni nad olid need hävitanud; nad ei jätnud alles ainsatki hinge.

¹⁴And all the spoil of these cities and the cattle the children of Israel took as prey to themselves; only, they smote all the men with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them: they left none that breathed.

¹⁵Nõnda nagu Issand oli käskinud oma sulast Moosest, nõnda oli Mooses käskinud Joosuat ja nõnda Joosua tegi; ta ei kaotanud sõnagi kõigest, milleks Issand oli Moosesele käsu andnud.

¹⁵As Jehovah had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua: he let nothing fail of all that Jehovah had commanded Moses.

¹⁶Nõnda võttis Joosua kogu selle maa mäestiku ja kogu Lõunamaa, ja kogu Goosenimaa, ja madalmaa ja lagendiku, ja Iisraeli mäestiku ja madaliku,

¹⁶And Joshua took all that land, the mountain and all the south, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowland, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and its lowland;

¹⁷alates Paljasmäest, mis tõuseb Seiri suunas, kuni Baal-Gaadini Liibanoni orus Hermoni mäe all; ja kõik nende kuningad sai ta oma valdusesse, lõi neid ja surmas nad.

¹⁷from the smooth mountain, which rises toward Seir, as far as Baal-Gad in the valley of Lebanon, at the foot of mount Hermon; and he took all their kings, and smote them, and put them to death.

¹⁸Kaua aega pidas Joosua sõda kõigi nende kuningatega.

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

¹⁹Ei olnud muud linna, kes oleks teinud rahu Iisraeli lastega, peale hiivlastega asustatud Gibeoni; nad võitsid kõiki sõjaga.

¹⁹There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites who dwelt at Gibeon; they took all in battle.

²⁰Sest see olenes Issandast, kes tegi nende südamed kangeks, nõnda et nad tulid sõdima Iisraeli vastu, et neid hävitataks sootuks, ilma et neile armu antaks, vaid just hävitataks, nagu Issand oli Moosesele käsu andnud.

²⁰For it was of Jehovah that their heart was hardened, to meet Israel in battle, that they might be utterly destroyed, and that there might be no favour shewn to them, but that they might be destroyed, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

²¹Ja sel ajal tuli Joosua ning hävitas anaklased mäestikust, Hebronist, Debirist, Anabist, kogu Juuda mäestikust; ja kogu Iisraeli mäestikust; Joosua hävitas nad sootuks koos nende linnadega.

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

²²Iisraeli laste maale ei jäänud anaklasi; neid jäi ainult Assasse, Gatti ja Asdodisse.

²²There were none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel; only at Gazah, at Gath, and at Ashdod there remained.

²³Ja Joosua võttis kogu maa, just nagu Issand oli Moosesele öelnud; ja Joosua andis selle Iisraelile pärisosaks osade viisi, vastavalt nende suguharudele. Ja maa puhkas sõjast.

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