1Now When these things were heard of, all the kings beyond the Jordan, that dwelt in the mountains and in the plains, in the places near the sea, and on the coasts of the great sea, they also that dwell by Libanus, the Hethite and the Amorrhite, the Chanaanite, the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite,Quibus auditis, cuncti reges trans Iordanem, qui versabantur in montanis et campestribus, in maritimis ac littore magni maris, hi quoque qui habitabant iuxta Libanum, Hethaeus et Amorrhaeus, Chananaeus, Pherezaeus, et Hevaeus, et Iebusaeus,Ὡς δὲ ἤκουσαν οἱ βασιλεῖς τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων οἱ ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, οἱ ἐν τῇ ὀρεινῇ, καὶ οἱ ἐν τῇ πεδινῇ, καὶ οἱ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ παραλίᾳ τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς μεγάλης, καὶ οἱ πρὸς τῷ Ἀντιλιβάνῳ, καὶ οἱ Χετταῖοι, καὶ οἱ Χαναναῖοι, καὶ οἱ Φερεζαῖοι, καὶ οἱ Εὐαῖοι, καὶ οἱ Ἀμοῤῥαῖοι, καὶ οἱ Γεργεσαῖοι, καὶ οἱ Ἰεβουσαῖοι,
2Gathered themselves together, to fight against Josue and Israel with one mind, and one resolution.congregati sunt pariter, ut pugnarent contra Iosue et Israël uno animo, eademque sententia.συνήλθοσαν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ ἐκπολεμῆσαι Ἰησοῦν καὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἅμα πάντες. Τότε ᾠκοδόμησεν Ἰησοῦς θυσιαστήριον Κυρίῳ τῷ Θεῷ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν ὄρει Γαιβὰλ, καθότι ἐνετείλατο Μωυσῆς ὁ θεράπων Κυρίου τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραῆλ, καθὰ γέγραπται ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Μωυσῆ, θυσιαστήριον λίθων ὁλοκλήρων, ἐφʼ οὓς οὐκ ἐπεβλήθη σίδηρος· καὶ ἀνεβίβασεν ἐκεῖ ὁλοκαυτώματα Κυρίῳ, καὶ θυσίαν σωτηρίου. Καὶ ἔγραψεν Ἰησοῦς ἐπὶ τῶν λίθων τὸ δευτερονόμιον, νόμον Μωυσῆ, ἐνώπιον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ. Καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι αὐτῶν, καὶ οἱ δικασταὶ, καὶ οἱ γραμματεῖς αὐτῶν, παρεπορεύοντο ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν τῆς κιβωτοῦ ἀπέναντι· καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευῖται ᾖρν τὴν κιβωτὸν τῆς διαθήκης Κυρίου· καὶ ὁ προσήλυτος καὶ ὁ αὐτόχθων, οἳ ἦσαν ἥμισυ πλησίον ὄρους Γαριζὶν, καὶ οἳ ἦσαν ἥμισυ πλησίον ὄρους Γαιβὰλ, καθότι ἐνετείλατο Μωυσῆς ὁ θεράπων Κυρίου εὐλογῆσαι τὸν λαὸν ἐν πρώτοις. Καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα οὕτως ἀνέγνω Ἰησοῦς πάντα τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ νόμου τούτου, τὰς εὐλογίας καὶ τὰς κατάρας, κατὰ πάντα τὰ γεγραμμένα ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Μωυσῆ. Οὐκ ἦν ῥῆμα ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν ἐνετείλατο Μωυσῆς τῷ Ἰησοῖ, ὃ οὐκ ἀνέγνω Ἰησοῦς εἰς τὰ ὦτα πάσης ἐκκλησίας υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, τοῖς ἀνδράσι καὶ ταῖς γυναιξὶ καὶ τοῖς παιδίοις καὶ τοῖς προσηλύτοις τοῖς προσπορευομένοις τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
3But they that dwelt in Gabaon, hearing all that Josue had done to Jericho and Hai:At hi qui habitabant in Gabaon, audientes cuncta quae fecerat Iosue Iericho, et Hai,Καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαβαὼν ἤκουσαν πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησε Κύριος τῇ Ἱεριχὼ καὶ τῇ Γαί.
4Cunningly devising took for themselves provisions, laying old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles rent and sewed up again,et callide cogitantes, tulerunt sibi cibaria, saccos veteres asinis imponentes, et utres vinarios scissos atque consutos,Καὶ ἐποίησαν καί γε αὐτοὶ μετὰ πανουργίας· καὶ ἐλθόντες ἐπεσιτίσαντο καὶ ἡτοιμάσαντο· καὶ λαβόντες σάκκους παλαιοὺς ἐπὶ τῶν ὤμων αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀσκοὺς οἴνου παλαιοὺς καὶ κατεῤῥωγότας ἀποδεδεμένους,
5And very old shoes, which for a show of age were clouted with patches, and old garments upon them: the leaves also, which they carried for provisions by the way, were hard, and broken into pieces:calceamentaque perantiqua quae ad indicium vetustatis pittaciis consuta erant, induti veteribus vestimentis: panes quoque, quos portabant ob viaticum, duri erant, et in frustra comminuti:καὶ τὰ κοῖλα τῶν ὑποδημάτων αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ σανδάλια αὐτῶν παλαιὰ καὶ καταπεπελματωμένα ἐν τοῖς ποσὶν αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν πεπαλαιωμένα ἐπάνω αὐτῶν, καὶ ὁ ἄρτος αὐτῶν τοῦ ἐπισιτισμοῦ ξηρὸς καὶ εὐρωτιῶν καὶ βεβρωμένος.
6And they went to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him, and to all Israel with him: We are come from a far country, desiring to make peace with you. And the children of Israel answered them, and said:perrexeruntque ad Iosue, qui tunc morabatur in castris Galgalae, et dixerunt ei, atque simul omni Israëli: De terra longinqua venimus, pacem vobiscum facere cupientes. Responderuntque viri Israël ad eos, atque dixerunt:Καὶ ἤλθοσαν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Γάλγαλα, καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν καὶ Ἰσραήλ, ἐκ γῆς μακρόθεν ἥκαμεν· καὶ νῦν διάθεσθε ἡμῖν διαθήκην.
7Perhaps you dwell in the land which falls to our lot; if so, we can make no league with you.Ne forte in terra, quae nobis sorte debetur, habitetis, et non possimus foedus inire vobiscum.Καὶ εἶπαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς τὸν Χοῤῥαῖον, ὅρα μὴ ἐν ἐμοὶ κατοικεῖς· καὶ πῶς σοι διαθῶμαι διαθήκην;
8But they said to Josue: We are thy servants. Josue said to them: Who are you? and whence came you?At illi ad Iosue: Servi, inquiunt, tui sumus. Quibus Iosue ait: Quinam estis vos? et unde venistis?Καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν, οἰκεται σου ἐσμέν· καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς, πόθεν ἐστὲ, καὶ πόθεν παραγεγόνατε;
9They answered: From a very far country thy servants are come in the name of the Lord thy God. For we have heard the fame of his power, all the things that he did in Egypt.Responderunt: De terra longinqua valde venerunt servi tui in nomine Domini Dei tui. Audivimus enim famam potentiae eius, cuncta quae fecit in Aegypto,Καὶ εἶπαν, ἐκ γῆς μακρόθεν σφόδρα ἥκασιν οἱ παῖδές σου ἐν ὀνόματι Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ σου· ἀκηκόαμεν γὰρ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὅσα ἐποίησεν ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ,
10And to the two kings of the Amorrhites that were beyond the Jordan, Sehon king of Hesebon, and Og king of Basan, that was in Astaroth:et duobus regibus Amorrhaeorum qui fuerunt trans Iordanem, Sehon regi Hesebon, et Og regi Basan, qui erat in Astaroth:καὶ ὅσα ἐποίησε τοῖς βασιλεῦσι τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων, οἳ ἦσαν πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, τῷ Σηὼν βασιλεῖ τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων, καὶ τῷ Ὢγ βασιλεῖ τῆς Βασὰν, ὃς κατῴκει ἐν Ἀσταρὼθ καὶ ἐν Ἐδραΐν.
11And our ancients, and all the inhabitants of our country said to us: Take with you victuals for a long way, and go meet them, and say: We are your servants, make ye a league with us.dixeruntque nobis seniores, et omnes habitatores terrae nostrae: Tollite in manibus cibaria ob longissimam viam, et occurrite eis, et dicite: Servi vestri sumus: foedus inite nobiscum.Καὶ ἀκούσαντες εἶπαν πρὸς ἡμᾶς οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἡμῶν καὶ πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν ἡμῶν, λέγοντες, λάβετε ἑαυτοῖς ἐπισιτισμὸν εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν, καὶ πορεύθητε εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐρεῖτε πρὸς αὐτοὺς, οἰκέται σου ἐσμὲν, καὶ νῦν διάθεσθε ἡμῖν τὴν διαθήκην.
12Behold, these leaves we took hot, when we set out from our houses to come to you, now they are become dry, and broken in pieces, by being exceeding old.En panes quando egressi sumus de domibus nostris, ut veniremus ad vos, calidos sumpsimus; nunc sicci facti sunt, et vetustate nimia comminuti.Οὗτοι οἱ ἄρτοι, θερμοὺς ἐφωδιάσθημεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ᾗ ἐξήλθομεν παραγενέσθαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς· νῦν δὲ ἐξηράνθησαν καὶ γεγόνασι βεβρωμένοι.
13These bottles of wine when we filled them were new, now they are rent and burst. These garments we have on, and the shoes we have on our feet, by reason of the very long journey are worn out, and almost consumed.Utres vini novos implevimus; nunc rupti sunt et soluti. Vestes et calceamenta quibus induimur, et quae habemus in pedibus, ob longitudinem longioris viae trita sunt, et pene consumpta.Καὶ οὗτοι οἱ ἀσκοὶ τοῦ οἴνου οὓς ἐπλήσαμεν καινοὺς, καὶ οὗτοι ἐῤῥώγασι· καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια ἡμῶν, καὶ τὰ ὑποδήματα ἡμῶν πεπαλαίωται ἀπὸ τῆς πολλῆς ὁδοῦ σφόδρα.
14They took therefore of their victuals, and consulted not the mouth of the Lord.Susceperunt igitur de cibariis eorum, et os Domini non interrogaverunt.Καὶ ἔλαβον οἱ ἄρχοντες τοῦ ἐπισιτισμοῦ αὐτῶν, καὶ Κύριον οὐκ ἐπηρώτησαν.
15And Josue made peace with them, and entering into a league promised that they should not be slain: the princes also of the multitude swore to them.Fecitque Iosue cum eis pacem, et inito foedere pollicitus est quod non occiderentur: principes quoque multitudinis iuraverunt eis.Καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς αὐτοὺς εἰρήνην, καὶ διέθεντο πρὸς αὐτοὺς διαθήκην τοῦ διασῶσαι αὐτούς· καὶ ὤμοσαν αὐτοῖς οἱ ἄρχοντες τῆς συναγωγῆς.
16Now three days after the league was made, they heard that they dwelt nigh, and they should be among them.Post dies autem tres initi foederis, audierunt quod in vicino habitarent, et inter eos futuri essent.Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τρεῖς ἡμέρας μετὰ τὸ διαθέσθαι πρὸς αὐτοὺς διαθήκην, ἤκουσαν ὅτι ἐγγύθεν αὐτῶν εἰσι, καὶ ὅτι ἐν αὐτοῖς κατοικοῦσι.
17And the children of Israel removed the camp, and came into their cities on the third day, the names of which are Gabaon, and Caphira, and Beroth, and Cariathiarim.Moveruntque castra filii Israël, et venerunt in civitates eorum die tertio, quarum haec vocabula sunt: Gabaon, et Caphira, et Beroth, et Cariathiarim.Καὶ ἀπῇραν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἦλθον εἰς τὰς πόλεις αὐτῶν· αἱ δὲ πόλεις αὐτῶν Γαβαὼν καὶ Κεφιρὰ καὶ Βηρὼτ, καὶ πόλεις Ἰαρίν.
18And they slew them not, because the princes of the multitude had sworn in the name of the Lord the God of Israel. Then all the common people murmured against the princes.Et non percusserunt eos, eo quod iurassent eis principes multitudinis in nomine Domini Dei Israël. Murmuravit itaque omne vulgus contra principes.Καὶ οὐκ ἐμαχέσαντο αὐτοῖς οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι ὤμοσαν αὐτοῖς πάντες οἱ ἄρχοντες Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ διεγόγγυσαν πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἄρχουσι.
19And they answered them: We have sworn to them in the name of the Lord the God of Israel, and therefore we may not touch them.Qui responderunt eis: Iuravimus illis in nomine Domini Dei Israël, et idcirco non possumus eos contingere.Καὶ εἶπαν οἱ ἄρχοντες πάσῃ τῇ συναγωγῇ, ἡμεῖς ὠμόσαμεν αὐτοῖς Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ νῦν οὐ δυνησόμεθα ἅψασθαι αὐτῶν.
20But this we mill do to them: Let their lives be saved, lest the wrath of the Lord be stirred up against us, if we should be forsworn.Sed hoc faciemus eis: reserventur quidem ut vivant, ne contra nos ira Domini concitetur, si peieraverimus:Τοῦτο ποιήσομεν, ζωγρῆσαι αὐτοὺς, καὶ περιποιησόμεθα αὐτούς· καὶ οὐκ ἔσται καθʼ ἡμῶν ὀργὴ διὰ τὸν ὅρκον, ὃν ὠμόσαμεν αὐτοῖς.
21But so let them live, as to serve the whole multitude in hewing wood, and bringing in water. As they were speaking these things,sed sic vivant, ut in usus universae multitudinis ligna caedant, aquasque comportent. Quibus haec loquentibus,Ζήσονται, καὶ ἔσονται ξυλοκόποι καὶ ὑδροφόροι πάσῃ τῇ συναγωγῇ, καθάπερ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς οἱ ἄρχοντες.
22Josue called the Gabaonites and said to them: Why would you impose upon us, saying: We dwell far off from you, whereas you are in the midst of us?vocavit Gabaonitas Iosue, et dixit eis: Cur nos decipere fraude voluistis, ut diceretis: Procul valde habitamus a vobis, cum in medio nostri sitis?Καὶ συνεκάλεσεν αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, διατί παρελογίσασθέ με, λέγοντες, μακρὰν ἀπὸ σοῦ ἐσμὲν σφόδρα· ὑμεῖς δὲ ἐγχώριοί ἐστε τῶν κατοικούντων ἐν ἡμῖν;
23Therefore you shall be under a curse, and your race shall always be hewers of wood, and carriers of water unto the house of my God.itaque sub maledictione eritis, et non deficiet de stirpe vestra ligna caedens, aquasque comportans in domum Dei mei.Καὶ νῦν ἐπικατάρατοί ἐστε· οὐ μὴ ἐκλείπῃ ἐξ ὑμῶν δοῦλος, οὐδὲ ξυλοκόπος, οὐδὲ ὑδροφόρος ἐμοὶ καὶ τῷ Θεῷ μου.
24They answered: It was told us thy servants, that the Lord thy God had promised his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants thereof. Therefore we feared exceedingly and provided for our lives. compelled by the dread we had of you and we took this counsel.Qui responderunt: Nuntiatum est nobis servis tuis, quod promisisset Dominus Deus tuus Moysi servo suo ut traderet vobis omnem terram, et disperderet cunctos habitatores eius. Timuimus igitur valde, et providimus animabus nostris, vestro terrore compulsi, et hoc consilium inivimus.Καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν τῷ Ἰησοῖ, λέγοντες, ἀνηγγέλη ἡμῖν ὅσα συνέταξε Κύριος ὁ Θεός σου Μωυσῇ τῷ παιδὶ αὐτοῦ, δοῦναι ὑμῖν τὴν γῆν ταύτην, καὶ ἐξολοθρεῦσαι ἡμᾶς καὶ πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐπʼ αὐτῆς ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν· καὶ ἐφοβήθημεν σφόδρα περὶ τῶν ψυχῶν ἡμῶν ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν, καὶ ἐποιήσαμεν τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο.
25And now we are in thy hand: deal with us as it seemeth good and right unto thee.Nunc autem in manu tua sumus: quod tibi bonum et rectum videtur, fac nobis.Καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἡμεῖς ὑποχείριοι ὑμῖν· ὡς ἀρέσκει ὑμῖν καὶ ὡς δοκεῖ ὑμῖν, ποιήσατε ἡμῖν.
26So Josue did as he had said, and delivered them from the hand of the children of Israel, that they should not be slain.Fecit ergo Iosue ut dixerat, et liberavit eos de manu filiorum Israël, ut non occiderentur.Καὶ ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς οὕτως· καὶ ἐξείλατο αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐκ χειρῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οὐκ ἀνεῖλον αὐτούς.
27And he gave orders in that day that they should be in the service of all the people, and of the altar of the Lord, hewing wood and carrying water, until this present time, in the place which the Lord hath chosen.Decrevitque in illo die eos esse in ministerio cuncti populi, et altaris Domini, caedentes ligna, et aquas comportantes, usque in praesens tempus, in loco quem Dominus elegisset.Καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ξυλοκόπους καὶ ὑδροφόρους πάσῃ τῇ συναγωγῇ, καὶ τῷ θυσιαστηρίῳ τοῦ Θεοῦ· διὰ τοῦτο ἐγένοντο οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαβαὼν ξυλοκόποι καὶ ὑδροφόροι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας, καὶ εἰς τὸν τόπον ὃν ἂν ἐκλέξηται Κύριος.

Jesus laments over Jerusalem, which kills the prophets

The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and…
