| 1 | And the Lord said to Josue: Fear not, nor be thou dismayed: take with thee all the multitude of fighting men, arise and go up to the town of Hai. Behold I have delivered into thy hand the king thereof, and the people, and the city, and the land. | Dixit autem Dominus ad Iosue: Ne timeas, neque formides: tolle tecum omnem multitudinem pugnatorum, et consurgens ascende in oppidum Hai. Ecce tradidi in manu tua regem eius et populum, urbemque et terram. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Ἰησοῦν, μὴ φοβηθῇς, μηδὲ δειλιάσῃς· λάβε μετὰ σοῦ πάντας τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς πολεμιστάς, καὶ ἀναστὰς ἀνάβηθι εἰς Γαί· ἰδοὺ δέδωκα εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου τὸν βασιλέα Γαὶ, καὶ τὴν γῆν αὐτοῦ. |
| 2 | And thou shalt do to the city of Hai, and to the king thereof, as thou hast done to Jericho, and to the king thereof: but the spoils and all the cattle you shall take for a prey to yourselves: lay an ambush for the city behind it. | Faciesque urbi Hai, et regi eius, sicut fecisti Iericho, et regi illius: praedam vero, et omnia animantia diripietis vobis: pone insidias urbi post eam. | Καὶ ποιήσεις τὴν Γαὶ, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησας τὴν Ἱεριχὼ, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς· καὶ τὴν προνομὴν τῶν κτηνῶν προνομεύσεις σεαυτῷ· κατάστησον δὲ σεαυτῷ ἔνεδρα τῇ πόλει εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω. |
| 3 | And Josue arose, and all the army of the fighting men with him, to go up against Hai: and he sent thirty thousand chosen valiant men in the night, | Surrexitque Iosue, et omnis exercitus bellatorum cum eo, ut ascenderent in Hai: et electa triginta millia virorum fortium misit nocte, | Καὶ ἀνέστη Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ πολεμιστὴς ὥστε ἀναβῆναι εἰς Γαί. ἐπέλεξε δὲ Ἰησοῦς τριάκοντα χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν δυνατοὺς ἐν ἰσχύϊ, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς νυκτός. |
| 4 | And commanded them, saying: Lay an ambush behind the city: and go not very far from it: and be ye all ready. | praecepitque eis, dicens: Ponite insidias post civitatem, nec longius recedatis: et eritis omnes parati. | Καὶ ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς, λέγων, ὑμεῖς ἐνεδρεύσατε ὀπίσω τῆς πόλεως· μὴ μακρὰν γίνεσθε ἀπὸ τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἔσεσθε πάντες ἕτοιμοι. |
| 5 | But I and the rest of the multitude which is with me; will approach on the contrary side against the city. And when they shall come out against us, we will flee, and turn our backs, as we did before: | Ego autem, et reliqua multitudo, quae mecum est, accedemus ex adverso contra urbem. Cumque exierint contra nos, sicut ante fecimus, fugiemus, et terga vertemus, | Καὶ ἐγὼ καὶ πάντες οἱ μετʼ ἐμοῦ προσάξομεν πρὸς τὴν πόλιν· καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἂν ἐξέλθωσιν οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαὶ εἰς συνάντησιν ἡμῖν, καθάπερ καὶ πρώην, καὶ φευξόμεθα ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν. |
| 6 | Till they pursuing us be drawn farther from the city: for they will think that we flee as before. | donec persequentes ab urbe longius protrahantur: putabunt enim nos fugere sicut prius. | Καὶ ὡς ἂν ἐξέλθωσιν ὀπίσω ἡμῶν, ἀποσπάσομεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς πόλεως· καὶ ἐροῦσι, φεύγουσιν οὗτοι ἀπὸ προσώπου ἡμῶν, ὃν τρόπον καὶ ἔμπροσθεν. |
| 7 | And whilst we are fleeing, and they pursuing, you shall arise out of the ambush, and shall destroy the city: and the Lord your God will deliver it into our hands. | Nobis ergo fugientibus, et illis persequentibus, consurgetis de insidiis, et vastabitis civitatem: tradetque eam Dominus Deus vester in manus vestras. | Ὑμεῖς δὲ ἐξαναστήσεσθε ἐκ τῆς ἐνέδρας, καὶ πορεύσεσθε εἰς τὴν πόλιν. |
| 8 | And when you shall have taken it, set it on fire, and you shall do all things so as I have commanded. | Cumque ceperitis, succendite eam, et sic omnia facietis, ut iussi. | Κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ποιήσετε· ἰδοὺ ἐντέταλμαι ὑμῖν. |
| 9 | And he sent them away, and they went on to the place of the ambush, and abode between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the city of Hai. But Josue stayed that night in the midst of the people, | Dimisitque eos, et perrexerunt ad locum insidiarum, sederuntque inter Bethel et Hai, ad occidentalem plagam urbis Hai: Iosue autem nocte illa in medio mansit populi, | Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς, καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν εἰς τὴν ἔνεδραν· καὶ ἐνεκάθισαν ἀναμέσον Βαιθὴλ καὶ ἀναμέσον Γαὶ, ἀπὸ θαλάσσης τῆς Γαί. |
| 10 | And rising early in the morning, he mustered his soldiers, and went up with the ancients in the front of the army environed with the aid of the fighting men. | surgensque diluculo recensuit socios, et ascendit cum senioribus in fronte exercitus, vallatus auxilio pugnatorum. | Καὶ ὀρθρίσας Ἰησοῦς τοπρωῒ, ἐπεσκέψατο τὸν λαόν· καὶ ἀνέβησαν αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ λαοῦ ἐπὶ Γαί. |
| 11 | And when they were come, and were gone up over against the city, they stood on the north side of the city, between which and them there was a valley in the midst. | Cumque venissent et ascendissent ex adverso civitatis, steterunt ad septentrionalem urbis plagam, inter quam et eos erat vallis media. | Καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ πολεμιστὴς μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἀνέβησαν· καὶ πορευόμενοι ἦλθον ἐξεναντίας τῆς πόλεως ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν. |
| 12 | And he had chosen five thousand men, and set them to lie in ambush between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the same city: | Quinque autem millia viros elegerat, et posuerat in insidiis inter Bethel et Hai ex occidentali parte eiusdem civitatis: | Καὶ τὰ ἔνεδρα τῆς πόλεως ἀπὸ θαλάσσης· |
| 13 | But all the rest of the army went in battle array on the north side, so that the last of that multitude reached to the west side of the city. So Josue went that night, and stood in the midst of the valley. | omnis vero reliquus exercitus ad aquilonem aciem dirigebat, ita ut novissimi illius multitudinis occidentalem plagam urbis attingerent. Abiit ergo Iosue nocte illa, et stetit in vallis medio. | — |
| 14 | And when the king of Hai saw this, he made haste in the morning, and went out with all the army of the city, and set it in battle array toward the desert, not knowing that there lay an ambush behind his back. | Quod cum vidisset rex Hai, festinavit mane, et egressus est cum omni exercitu civitatis, direxitque aciem contra desertum, ignorans quod post tergum laterent insidiae. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδε βασιλεὺς Γαὶ, ἔσπευσε καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς ἐπʼ εὐθείας εἰς τὸν πόλεμον, αὐτὸς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ μετʼ αὐτοῦ· καὶ αὐτὸς οὐκ ᾔδει ὅτι ἔνεδρα αὐτῷ ἐστιν ὀπίσω τῆς πόλεως. |
| 15 | But Josue, and all Israel gave back, making as if they were afraid, and fleeing by the way of the wilderness. | Iosue vero et omnis Israël cesserunt loco, simulantes metum, et fugientes per solitudinis viam. | Καὶ εἶδε, καὶ ἀνεχώρησεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν. |
| 16 | But they shouting together, and encouraging one another, pursued them. And when they were come from the city, | At illi vociferantes pariter, et se mutuo cohortantes, persecuti sunt eos. Cumque recessissent a civitate, | Καὶ κατεδίωξαν ὀπίσω τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ αὐτοὶ ἀπέστησαν ἀπὸ τῆς πόλεως. |
| 17 | And not one remained in the city of Hai and of Bethel, that did not pursue after Israel, leaving the towns open as they had rushed out, | et ne unus quidem in urbe Hai et Bethel remansisset qui non persequeretur Israël (sicut eruperant aperta oppida relinquentes), | Οὐ κατελείφθη οὐδεὶς ἐν τῇ Γαὶ, ὃς οὐ κατεδίωξεν ὀπίσω Ἰσραήλ· καὶ κατέλιπον τὴν πόλιν ἠνεῳγμένην, καὶ κατεδίωξαν ὀπίσω Ἰσραήλ· |
| 18 | The Lord said to Josue: Lift up the shield that is in thy hand, towards the city of Hai, for I will deliver it to thee. | dixit Dominus ad Iosue: Leva clypeum, qui in manu tua est, contra urbem Hai, quoniam tibi tradam eam. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Ἰησοῦν, ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐν τῷ γαισῷ τῷ ἐν τῇ χειρί σου ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν, εἰς γὰρ τὰς χεῖράς σου παραδέδωκα αὐτήν· καὶ τὰ ἔνεδρα ἐξαναστήσονται ἐν τάχει ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτῶν. Καὶ ἐξέτεινεν Ἰησοῦς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ τὸν γαισὸν ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν· |
| 19 | And when he had lifted up his shield towards the city, the ambush that lay hid, rose up immediately: and going to the city, took it and set it on fire. | Cumque elevasset clypeum ex adverso civitatis, insidiae, quae latebant, surrexerunt confestim: et pergentes ad civitatem, ceperunt, et succenderunt eam. | καὶ τὰ ἔνεδρα ἐξανέστησαν ἐν τάχει ἐκ τοῦ τόπου αὐτῶν· καὶ ἐξήλθοσαν ὅτε ἐξέτεινε τὴν χεῖρα, καὶ εἰσήλθοσαν καὶτὴν πόλιν, καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτήν· καὶ σπεύσαντες ἐνέπρησαν τὴν πόλιν ἐν πυρί. |
| 20 | And the men of the city, that pursued after Josue, looking back and seeing the smoke of the city rise up to heaven, had no more power to flee this way or that way: especially as they that had counterfeited flight, and were going toward the wilderness, turned back most valiantly against them that pursued. | Viri autem civitatis, qui persequebantur Iosue, respicientes et videntes fumum urbis ad caelum usque conscendere, non potuerunt ultra huc illucque diffugere: praesertim cum hi qui simulaverant fugam, et tendebant ad solitudinem, contra persequentes fortissime restitissent. | Καὶ περιβλέψαντες οἱ κάτοικοι Γαὶ εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐθεώρουν καπνὸν ἀναβαίνοντα ἐκ τῆς πόλεως εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν· καὶ οὐκ ἔτι εἶχον ποῦ φύγωσιν ὧδε ἢ ὧδε. |
| 21 | So Josue and all Israel seeing that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city rose up, returned and slew the men of Hai. | Vidensque Iosue et omnis Israël quod capta esset civitas, et fumus urbis ascenderet, reversus percussit viros Hai. | Καὶ Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ εἶδον, ὅτι ἔλαβον τὰ ἔνεδρα τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ὅτι ἀνέβη ὁ καπνὸς τῆς πόλεως εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν· καὶ μεταβαλλόμενοι, ἐπάταξαν τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς Γαί. |
| 22 | And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved. | Siquidem et illi qui ceperant et succenderant civitatem, egressi ex urbe contra suos, medios hostium ferire coeperunt. Cum ergo ex utraque parte adversarii caederentur, ita ut nullus de tanta multitudine salvaretur, | Καὶ οὗτοι ἐξήλθοσαν ἐκ τῆς πόλεως εἰς συνάντησιν· καὶ ἐκενήθησαν ἀναμέσον τῆς παρεμβολῆς, οὗτοι ἐντεῦθεν καὶ οὗτοι ἐντεῦθεν· καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτοὺς ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλειφθῆναι αὐτῶν σεσωσμένον καὶ διαπεφευγότα. |
| 23 | And they took the king of the city of Hai alive, and brought him to Josue. | regem quoque urbis Hai apprehenderunt viventem, et obtulerunt Iosue. | Καὶ τὸν βασιλέα τῆς Γαὶ συνέλαβον ζῶντα, καὶ προσήγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν. |
| 24 | So all being slain that had pursued after Israel in his flight to the wilderness, and tailing by the sword in the same place, the children of Israel returned and laid waste the city. | Igitur omnibus interfectis, qui Israëlem ad deserta tendentem fuerant persecuti, et in eodem loco gladio corruentibus, reversi filii Israël percusserunt civitatem. | Καὶ ὡς ἐπαύσαντο οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἀποκτείνοντες πάντας τοὺς ἐν τῇ Γαὶ, καὶ τοὺς ἐν τοῖς πεδίοις, καὶ ἐν τῷ ὄρει ἐπὶ τῆς καταβάσεως, οὗ κατεδίωξαν αὐτοὺς ἀπʼ αὐτῆς εἰς τέλος, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰησοῦς εἰς Γαὶ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ῥομφαίας. |
| 25 | And the number of them that fell that day, both of men and women, was twelve thousand persons all of the city of Hai. | Erant autem qui in eodem die conciderant a viro usque ad mulierem, duodecim millia hominum, omnes urbis Hai. | Καὶ ἐγενήθησαν οἱ πεσόντες ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀπὸ ἄνδρος καὶ ἕως γυναικὸς, δώδεκα χιλιάδες, πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Γαί. |
| 26 | But Josue drew not back his hand, which he had stretched out on high, holding the shield, till all the inhabitants of Hai were slain. | Iosue vero non contraxit manum, quam in sublime porrexerat, tenens clypeum donec interficerentur omnes habitatores Hai. | — |
| 27 | And the children of Israel divided among them the cattle and the prey of the city, as the Lord had commanded Josue. | Iumenta autem et praedam civitatis diviserunt sibi filii Israël, sicut praeceperat Dominus Iosue. | Πλὴν τῶν σκύλων τῶν ἐν τῇ πόλει πάντα, ἃ ἐπρονόμευσαν ἑαυτοῖς οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ κατὰ πρόσταγμα Κυρίου, ὃν τρόπον συνέταξε Κύριος τῷ Ἰησοῖ. |
| 28 | And he burned the city, and made it a heap for ever: | Qui succendit urbem, et fecit eam tumulum sempiternum: | Καὶ ἐνεπύρισεν Ἰησοῦς τὴν πόλιν ἐν πυρί· χῶμα ἀοίκητον εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἔθηκεν αὐτὴν ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης. |
| 29 | And he hung the king thereof on a gibbet until the evening and the going down of the sun. Then Josue commanded, and they took down his carcass from the gibbet: and threw it in the very entrance of the city, heaping upon it a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. | regem quoque eius suspendit in patibulo usque ad vesperam et solis occasum. Praecepitque Iosue, et deposuerunt cadaver eius de cruce: proieceruntque in ipso introitu civitatis, congesto super eum magno acervo lapidum, qui permanet usque in praesentem diem. | Καὶ τὸν βασιλέα τῆς Γαὶ ἐκρέμασεν ἐπὶ ξύλου διδύμου· καὶ ἦν ἐπὶ τοῦ ξύλου ἕως ἑσπέρας· καὶ ἐπιδύνοντος τοῦ ἡλίου συνέταξεν Ἰησοῦς, καὶ καθείλοσαν τὸ σῶμα αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ ξύλου, καὶ ἔῤῥιψαν αὐτὸ εἰς τὸν βόθρον· καὶ ἐπέστησαν αὐτῷ σωρὸν λίθων, ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης. |
| 30 | Then Josue built an altar to the Lord the God of Israel in mount Hebal, | Tunc aedificavit Iosue altare Domino Deo Israël in monte Hebal, | — |
| 31 | As Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, and it is written in the book of the law of Moses: an altar of unhewn stones which iron had not touched: and he offered upon it holocausts to the Lord, and immolated victims of peace offerings. | sicut praeceperat Moyses famulus Domini filiis Israël, et scriptum est in volumine legis Moysi: altare vero de lapidibus impolitis, quos ferrum non tetigit: et obtulit super eo holocausta Domino, immolavitque pacificas victimas. | — |
| 32 | And he wrote upon stones the Deuteronomy of the law of Moses, which he had ordered before the children of Israel. | Et scripsit super lapides Deuteronomium legis Moysi, quod ille digesserat coram filiis Israël. | — |
| 33 | And all the people, and the ancients, and the princes and judges stood on both sides of the ark, before the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, both the stranger and he that was born among them, half of them by mount Garizim, and half by mount Hebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. And first he blessed the people of Israel. | Omnis autem populus, et maiores natu, ducesque ac iudices, stabant ex utraque parte arcae, in conspectu sacerdotum qui portabant arcam foederis Domini, ut advena, ita et indigena. Media pars eorum iuxta montem Garizim, et media iuxta montem Hebal, sicut praeceperat Moyses famulus Domini. Et primum quidem benedixit populo Israël. | — |
| 34 | After this he read all the words of the blessing and the cursing and all things that were written in the hook of the law. | Post haec legit omnia verba benedictionis et maledictionis, et cuncta quae scripta erant in legis volumine. | — |
| 35 | He left out nothing of those things which Moses had commanded, but he repeated all before all the people of Israel, with the women and children and strangers that dwelt among them. | Nihil ex his quae Moyses iusserat, reliquit intactum, sed universa replicavit coram omni multitudine Israël, mulieribus ac parvulis, et advenis qui inter eos morabantur. | — |
