¹A stalo sa, keď počul Adonicédek, kráľ Jeruzalema, že Jozua zaujal Haj a že zarieknuc ho na záhubu zahubil ho docela, a že jako učinil Jerichu a jeho kráľovi, tak učinil i mestu Haj a jeho kráľovi, a že obyvatelia Gibeona učinili pokoj s Izraelom a sú v ich strede,

¹Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;

²všetci sa báli veľmi, lebo Gibeon bolo veľké mesto jako jedno z miest kráľovstva, a že bolo väčšie ako Haj, a k tomu ešte i všetci jeho mužovia boli udatní.

²that they feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty.

³A Adonicédek, kráľ Jeruzalema, poslal poslov k Hohámovi, kráľovi Hebrona, k Pirámovi, kráľovi Jarmúta, k Jafiovi, kráľovi Lachiša, a k Debírovi, kráľovi Eglona, povediac:

³Wherefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham king of Hebron, and unto Piram king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia king of Lachish, and unto Debir king of Eglon, saying,

⁴Poďte hore ku mne a pomôžte mi, zbijeme Gibeon, pretože učinil pokoj s Jozuom a so synmi Izraelovými.

⁴Come up unto me, and help me, and let us smite Gibeon; for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.

⁵A shromaždili sa a išli hore piati kráľovia Amoreja, kráľ Jeruzalema, kráľ Hebrona, kráľ Jarmúta, kráľ Lachiša, kráľ Eglona, oni i všetky ich vojská, a rozložili sa táborom proti Gibeonu a bojovali proti nemu.

⁵Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.

⁶A mužovia Gibeona poslali posolstvo k Jozuovi do tábora do Gilgala s odkazom: Neuťahuj svojej ruky od svojich služobníkov! Prijdi rýchle hore k nám a zachráň nás a pomôž nám, lebo sa sobrali proti nám všetci kráľovia Amoreja, ktorí bývajú na vrchoch.

⁶And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Slack not thy hand from thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country are gathered together against us.

⁷Vtedy vyšiel Jozua z Gilgala hore, on i všetok ľud, súci do boja, s ním i všetci udatní mužovia silní.

⁷So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.

⁸A Hospodin riekol Jozuovi: Neboj sa ich! Lebo som ich dal do tvojej ruky; nikto z nich neobstojí pred tebou.

⁸And Jehovah said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands; there shall not a man of them stand before thee.

⁹A tedy prišiel Jozua náhle proti ním; celú noc išiel hore z Gilgala.

⁹Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly; [for] he went up from Gilgal all the night.

¹⁰A Hospodin ich predesil pred Izraelom, a porazil ich veľkou porážkou v Gibeone a honil ich cestou, ktorá ide hore do Bét-chórona, a bil ich až po Azéku a po Makkédu.

¹⁰And Jehovah discomfited them before Israel, and he slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah.

¹¹A stalo sa, keď utekali pred Izraelom a keď boli na svahu Bét-chórona, že Hospodin metal na nich veľké kamene s neba až po Azéku a mreli. Viacej bolo tých, ktorí zomreli od kameňov toho krupobitia, ako bolo tých, ktorých pobili synovia Izraelovi mečom.

¹¹And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that Jehovah cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more who died with the hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.

¹²Vtedy hovoril Jozua Hospodinovi, v deň, v ktorý vydal Hospodin Amoreja pred synmi Izraelovými, a riekol pred očami Izraela: Slnce v Gibeone, stoj ticho, a mesiac v údolí Ajalon!

¹²Then spake Joshua to Jehovah in the day when Jehovah delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; And thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.

¹³A slnce stálo ticho, a mesiac stál, dokiaľ sa nepomstil národ na svojich nepriateľoch. Či nie je to napísané v knihe Spravedlivého? A slnce stálo prostred neba a neponáhľalo sa zapadnúť tak asi celý deň.

¹³And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, Until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.

¹⁴A nebolo takého dňa pred tým ani potom, aby bol Hospodin takto počul na hlas človeka, lebo Hospodin bojoval za Izraela.

¹⁴And there was no day like that before it or after it, that Jehovah hearkened unto the voice of a man: for Jehovah fought for Israel.

¹⁵Potom sa vrátil Jozua i celý Izrael s ním do tábora, do Gilgala.

¹⁵And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

¹⁶A tí piati kráľovia utiekli a skryli sa v jaskyni v Makkéde.

¹⁶And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.

¹⁷A Jozuovi bolo oznámené, vraj našli sa piati kráľovia skrytí v jaskyni v Makkéde.

¹⁷And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.

¹⁸A Jozua riekol: Privaľte veľké kamene k otvoru jaskyne a postavte ku nej mužov, aby ich strážili.

¹⁸And Joshua said, Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them:

¹⁹Ale vy sa nezastavujte; hoňte svojich nepriateľov a bite ich zadné voje; nedajte im, aby vošli do svojich miest, lebo Hospodin, váš Bôh, ich dal do vašej ruky.

¹⁹but stay not ye; pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for Jehovah your God hath delivered them into your hand.

²⁰A stalo sa, keď ich už bol Jozua pobil i synovia Izraelovi poraziac ich porážkou, veľmi velikou, takže im urobil koniec, a ubehlíci, ktorí pozostali z nich, vošli do opevnených miest,

²⁰And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,

²¹že sa všetok ľud vrátil do tábora k Jozuovi do Makkédy v pokoji. Nikto ani len svojím jazykom nehnul proti nikomu zo synov Izraelových.

²¹that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.

²²Potom povedal Jozua: Otvorte ústie jaskyne a vyveďte tých piatich kráľov z jaskyne ku mne.

²²Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth those five kings unto me out of the cave.

²³A učinili a vyviedli tých piatich kráľov z jaskyne k nemu, kráľa Jeruzalema, kráľa Hebrona, kráľa Jarmúta, kráľa Lachiša a kráľa Eglona.

²³And they did so, and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.

²⁴A stalo sa, keď vyviedli tých kráľov k Jozuovi, že Jozua povolal všetkých mužov Izraelových a riekol vojvodom bojovníkov, ktorí išli s ním: Pristúpte, položte svoje nohy na krky týchto kráľov! A pristúpiac položili svoje nohy na ich krky.

²⁴And it came to pass, when they brought forth those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the chiefs of the men of war that went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.

²⁵A Jozua im riekol: Nebojte sa ani sa nestrachujte! Buďte silní a pevní, lebo takto učiní Hospodin všetkým vašim nepriateľom, proti ktorým bojujete.

²⁵And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage: for thus shall Jehovah do to all your enemies against whom ye fight.

²⁶Potom ich Jozua zbil a zabil ich a obesil ich na päť stromov, a viseli na stromoch až do večera.

²⁶And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.

²⁷A stalo sa o čase, keď zapádalo slnko, že Jozua rozkázal, a sňali ich so stromov a pohádzali ich do jaskyne, v ktorej sa boli ukryli, a nakládli veľkých kameňov na otvor jaskyne, kde sú až do dnešného dňa.

²⁷And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, unto this very day.

²⁸I Makkédu zaujal Jozua toho istého dňa a zbil ju ostrím meča i jej kráľa zabil; úplne ich zahladil, i všetky duše, ktoré boly v nej; neponechal nikoho živého, a učinil kráľovi Makkédy, jako učinil kráľovi Jericha.

²⁸And Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof: he utterly destroyed them and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done unto the king of Jericho.

²⁹Potom Jozua prešiel i celý Izrael s ním z Makkédy do Libny a bojoval proti Libne.

²⁹And Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:

³⁰A Hospodin dal i ju do ruky Izraela i jej kráľa, a pobil ju ostrím meča i všetky duše, ktoré boly v nej; neponechal v nej nikoho živého a učinil jej kráľovi tak, ako učinil kráľovi Jericha.

³⁰and Jehovah delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining in it; and he did unto the king thereof as he had done unto the king of Jericho.

³¹A Jozua prešiel i celý Izrael s ním z Libny do Lachiša a rozložil sa pri ňom táborom a bojoval proti nemu.

³¹And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:

³²A Hospodin vydal Lachiš do ruky Izraela, a zaujal ho druhého dňa a pobil ho ostrím meča i všetky duše, ktoré boly v ňom, všetko tak, ako učinil Libne.

³²and Jehovah delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel; and he took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah.

³³Vtedy vyšiel hore Horam, kráľ Gézera, pomôcť Lachišu. Ale Jozua ho porazil i jeho ľud tak, že mu neponechal nikoho živého.

³³Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.

³⁴A Jozua prešiel i všetok Izrael s ním z Lachiša do Eglona, a rozložili sa pri ňom táborom a bojovali proti nemu.

³⁴And Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, unto Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it;

³⁵A zaujali ho toho dňa a pobili ho ostrím meča, i všetky duše, ktoré boly v ňom, zahladil celkom toho dňa, zarieknuté na záhubu, všetko tak, ako učinil Lachišu.

³⁵and they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.

³⁶Potom odišiel Jozua i celý Izrael s ním z Eglona hore do Hebrona, a bojovali proti nemu.

³⁶And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it:

³⁷A zaujali ho a pobili ho ostrím meča i jeho kráľa i všetky jeho mestá i všetky duše, ktoré boly v ňom; neponechal nikoho živého, všetko tak, ako učinil Eglonu, a zahladil ho, zarieknuc ho na záhubu, i všetky duše, ktoré boly v ňom.

³⁷and they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls that were therein.

³⁸Potom sa vrátil Jozua i celý Izrael s ním do Debíra, a bojovali proti nemu.

³⁸And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it:

³⁹A zaujal ho i jeho kráľa i všetky jeho mestá, a pobili ich ostrím meča a zahladili, zarieknuté na záhubu, všetky duše, ktoré boly v ňom; neponechal nikoho živého. Jako učinil Hebronu, tak učinil aj Debíru i jeho kráľovi, a jako učinil Libne i jej kráľovi.

³⁹and he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the king thereof; as he had done also to Libnah, and to the king thereof.

⁴⁰A Jozua zbil celú tú zem, vrch i juh, nížinu aj úbočia i všetkých ich kráľov. Neponechal nikoho živého a zahladil i všetky duše, zarieknuté na záhubu, tak ako prikázal Hospodin, Bôh Izraelov.

⁴⁰So Joshua smote all the land, the hill-country, and the South, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Jehovah, the God of Israel, commanded.

⁴¹A tak ich pobil Jozua, všetkých od Kádeš-barnee až po Gazu i celú zem Góšen a až po Gibeon.

⁴¹And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon.

⁴²A všetkých tých kráľov aj ich zem zaujal Jozua na jeden raz, lebo Hospodin, Bôh Izraelov, bojoval za Izraela.

⁴²And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because Jehovah, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.

⁴³A tak sa navrátil Jozua i celý Izrael s ním do tábora do Gilgala.

⁴³And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
