Notes on this text (1)
- Ezra and Nehemiah form one book (2 Esdras) in this edition; the reader shows them as Ezra 1–10 and Nehemiah 1–13.
1 Ὡς δὲ ἤκουσεν Ἀδωνιβεζέκ βασιλεὺς Ἱερουσαλὴμ ὅτι ἔλαβεν Ἰησοῦς τὴν Γαὶ, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσεν αὐτὴν, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τὴν Ἱεριχὼ καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς, οὕτως ἐποίησαν καὶ τὴν Γαὶ καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς, καὶ ὅτι ηὐτομόλησαν οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαβαὼν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν καὶ πρὸς Ἰσραὴλ,
1 Now 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,
2 καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν ἀπʼ αὐτῶν σφόδρα· ᾔδει γὰρ ὅτι πόλις μεγάλη Γαβαὼν, ὡσεὶ μία τῶν μητροπόλεων, καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες αὐτῆς ἰσχυροί.
2 they were very afraid, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἀδωνιβεζὲκ βασιλεὺς Ἰερουσαλὴμ πρὸς Ἐλὰμ βασιλέα Χεβρὼν, καὶ πρὸς Φιδὼν βασιλέα Ἱερειμοὺθ, καὶ πρὸς Ἰεφθα βασιλέα Λαχὶς καὶ πρὸς Δαβεὶν βασιλέα Ὀδολλὰμ, λέγων,
3 Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 δεῦτε, ἀνάβητε πρός με, καὶ βοηθήσατέ μοι, καὶ ἐκπολεμήσωμεν Γαβαών· ηὐτομόλησαν γὰρ πρὸς Ἰησοῦν καὶ πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραήλ.
4 “Come up to me and help me. Let’s strike Gibeon; for they have made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.”
5 Καὶ ἀνέβησαν οἱ πέντε βασιλεῖς τῶν Ἰεβουσαίων, βασιλεὺς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ βασιλεὺς Χεβρὼν, καὶ βασιλεὺς Ἱεριμοὺθ, καὶ βασιλεὺς Λαχὶς, καὶ βασιλεὺς Ὀδολλάμ, αὐτοὶ καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς αὐτῶν. καὶ περιεκάθισαν τὴν Γαβαὼν, καὶ ἐξεπολιόρκουν αὐτήν.
5 Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together and went up, they and all their armies, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
6 Καὶ ἀπέστειλαν οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαβαὼν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Γάλγαλα, λέγοντες, μὴ ἐκλύσῃς τὰς χεῖράς σου ἀπὸ τῶν παίδων σου· ἀνάβηθι πρὸς ἡμᾶς, τοτάχος, και βοήθησον ἡμῖν, καὶ ἐξελοῦ ἡμᾶς· ὅτι συνηγμένοι εἰσὶν ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς πάντες οἱ βασιλεῖς τῶν Ἀμοῤῥαίων, οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν ὀρεινὴν.
6 The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, saying, “Don’t abandon your servants! Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill country have gathered together against us.”
7 Καὶ ἀνέβη Ἰησοῦς ἐκ Γαλγάλων, αὐτὸς καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ πολεμιστὴς μετʼ αὐτοῦ, πᾶς δυνατὸς ἐν ἰσχύϊ.
7 So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and the whole army with him, including all the mighty men of valor.
8 Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Ἰησοῦν, μὴ φοβηθῇς αὐτούς, εἰς γὰρ τὰς χεῖράς σου παραδέδωκα αὐτούς· οὐχ ὑπολειφθήσεται ἐξ αὐτῶν οὐδεὶς ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν.
8 Yahweh said to Joshua, “Don’t fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. Not a man of them will stand before you.”
9 Καὶ ἐπεὶ παρεγένετο Ἰησοῦς ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς ἄφνω, ὅλην τὴν νύκτα εἰσεπορεύθη ἐκ Γαλγάλων.
9 Joshua therefore came to them suddenly. He marched from Gilgal all night.
10 Καὶ ἐξέστησεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ συνέτριψεν αὐτοὺς Κύριος συντρίψει μεγάλῃ ἐν Γαβαών· καὶ κατεδίωξαν αὐτοὺς ὁδὸν ἀναβάσεως Ὠρωνείν, καὶ κατέκοπτον αὐτοὺς ἕως Ἀζηκὰ καὶ ἕως Μακηδά.
10 Yahweh confused them before Israel. He killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth Horon, and struck them to Azekah and to Makkedah.
11 Ἐν δὲ τῷ φεύγειν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἐπὶ τὴς καταβάσεως Ὡρωνεὶν, καὶ Κύριος ἐπέῤῥιψεν αὐτοῖς λίθους χαλάζης ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἕως Ἀζηκά· καὶ ἐγένοντο πλείους οἱ ἀποθανόντες διὰ τοὺς λίθους τῆς χαλάζης, ἢ οὓς ἀπέκτειναν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ μαχαίρᾳ ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ.
11 As they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth Horon, Yahweh hurled down great stones from the sky on them to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died from the hailstones than those whom the children of Israel killed with the sword.
12 Τότε ἐλάλησεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς Κύριον, ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ παρέδωκεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν Ἀμοῤῥαῖον ὑποχείριον Ἰσραὴλ, ἡνίκα συνέτριψεν αὐτοὺς ἐν Γαβαὼν, καὶ συνετρίβησαν ἀπὸ προσώπου υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς, στήτω ὁ ἥλιος κατὰ Γαβαὼν, καὶ ἡ σελήνη κατὰ φάραγγα Αἰλών.
12 Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh in the day when Yahweh delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel. He said in the sight of Israel, “Sun, stand still on Gibeon! You, moon, stop in the valley of Aijalon!”
13 Καὶ ἔστη ὁ ἥλιος καὶ ἡ σελήνη ἐν στάσει, ἕως ἠμύνατο ὁ Θεὸς τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτῶν· καὶ ἔστη ὁ ἥλιος κατὰ μέσον τοῦ οὐρανοῦ· οὐ προεπορεύετο εἰς δυσμὰς εἰς τέλος ἡμέρας μιᾶς.
13 The sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Isn’t this written in the book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky, and didn’t hurry to go down about a whole day.
14 Καὶ οὐκ ἐγένετο ἡμέρα τοιαύτη οὐδὲ τὸ πρότερον οὐδὲ τὸ ἔσχατον, ὥστε ἐπακοῦσαι Θεὸν ἀνθρώπου, ὅτι Κύριος συνεξεπολέμησε τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
14 There was no day like that before it or after it, that Yahweh listened to the voice of a man; for Yahweh fought for Israel. 15 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
16 Καὶ ἔφυγον οἱ πέντε βασιλεῖς οὗτοι, καὶ κατεκρύβησαν εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον τὸ ἐν Μακηδά.
16 These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 Καὶ ἀπηγγέλη τῷ Ἰησοῦ, λέγοντες, εὕρηνται οἱ πέντε βασιλεῖς κεκρυμμένοι ἐν τῷ σπηλαίῳ τῷ ἐν Μακηδά.
17 Joshua was told, saying, “The five kings have been found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.”
18 Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς, κυλίσατε λίθους ἐπὶ τὸ στόμα τοῦ σπηλαίου, καὶ καταστήσατε ἄνδρας φυλάσσειν ἐπʼ αὐτούς.
18 Joshua said, “Roll large stones to cover the cave’s entrance, and set men by it to guard them;
19 Ὑμεῖς δὲ μὴ ἑστήκατε, καταδιώκοντες ὀπίσω τῶν ἐχθρῶν ὑμῶν, καὶ καταλάβετε τὴν οὐραγίαν αὐτῶν, καὶ μὴ ἀφῆτε εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὰς πόλεις αὐτῶν· παρέδωκε γὰρ αὐτοὺς Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας ἡμῶν.
19 but don’t stay there. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Don’t allow them to enter into their cities; for Yahweh your God has delivered them into your hand.”
20 Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς κατέπαυσεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς υἱὸς Ἰσραὴλ κόπτοντες αὐτοὺς κοπὴν μεγάλην σφόδρα ἕως εἰς τέλος, καὶ οἱ διασωζόμενοι διεσώθησαν εἰς τὰς πόλεις τὰς ὀχυράς.
20 When Joshua and the children of Israel had finished killing them with a very great slaughter until they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
21 Καὶ ἀπεστράφη πᾶς ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Ἰησοῦν εἰς Μακηδὰ ὑγιεῖς· καὶ οὐκ ἔγρυξεν οὐδεὶς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰηραὴλ τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτοῦ.
21 all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
22 Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς, ἀνοίξατε τὸ σπήλαιον, καὶ ἐξαγάγετε τοὺς πέντε βασιλεῖς τούτους ἐκ τοῦ σπηλαίου.
22 Then Joshua said, “Open the cave entrance, and bring those five kings out of the cave to me.”
23 Καὶ ἐξηγάγοσαν τοὺς πέντε βασιλεῖς ἐκ τοῦ σπηλαίου, τὸν βασιλέα Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα Χεβρὼν, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα Ἱεριμοὺθ, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα Λαχὶς, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα Ὀδολλάμ.
23 They did so, and brought those five kings out of the cave to him: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 Καὶ ἐπεὶ ἐξήγαγον αὐτοὺς πρὸς Ἰησοῦν, καὶ συνεκάλεσεν Ἰησοῦς πάντα Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ τοὺς ἐναρχομένους τοῦ πολέμου τοὺς συμπορευομένους αὐτῷ, λέγων αὐτοῖς, προπορεύεσθε καὶ ἐπίθετε τοὺς πόδας ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τοὺς τραχήλους αὐτῶν· καὶ προσελθόντες ἐπέθηκαν τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τοὺς τραχήλους αὐτῶν.
24 When they brought those kings out to Joshua, Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, “Come near. Put your feet on the necks of these kings.” They came near, and put their feet on their necks.
25 Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς αὐτοὺς, μὴ φοβηθῆτε αὐτοὺς, μηδὲ δειλιάσητε, ἀνδρίζεσθε καὶ ἰσχύετε, ὅτι οὕτω ποιήσει Κύριος πᾶσι τοῖς ἐχθροῖς ὑμῶν, οὓς ὑμεῖς καταπολεμεῖτε αὐτούς.
25 Joshua said to them, “Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed. Be strong and courageous, for Yahweh will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight.”
26 Καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτοὺς Ἰησοῦς, καὶ ἐκρέμασεν αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ πέντε ξύλων· καὶ ἦσαν κρεμάμενοι ἐπὶ τῶν ξύλων ἕως ἑσπέρας.
26 Afterward Joshua struck them, put them to death, and hanged them on five trees. They were hanging on the trees until the evening.
27 Καὶ ἐγενήθη πρὸς ἡλίου δυσμὰς, ἐνετείλατο Ἰησοῦς, καὶ καθεῖλον αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῶν ξύλων, καὶ ἔῤῥιψαν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον, εἰς ὃ κατεφύγοσαν ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἐπεκύλισαν λίθους ἐπὶ τὸ σπήλαιον ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.
27 At the time of the going down of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and threw them into the cave in which they had hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, which remain to this very day.
28 Καὶ τὴν Μακηδὰ ἐλάβοσαν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἐφόνευσαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσαν πᾶν ἐμπνέον ὃ ἦν ἐν αὐτῇ· καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη οὐδεὶς ἐν αὐτῇ διασεσωσμένος καὶ διαπεφευγώς· καὶ ἐποίησαν τῷ βασιλεῖ Μακηδὰ, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἱεριχώ.
28 Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king. He utterly destroyed it and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining. He did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐκ Μακηδὰ εἰς Λεβνὰ, καὶ ἐπολιόρκει Λεβνά.
29 Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
30 Καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτὴν Κύριος εἰς χεῖρας Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὴν, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐφόνευσαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ πᾶν ἐμπνέον ἐν αὐτῇ· καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη ἐν αὐτῇ διασεσωσμένος καὶ διαπεφευγώς· καὶ ἐποίησαν τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῆς, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἱεριχώ.
30 Yahweh delivered it also, with its king, into the hand of Israel. He struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining in it. He did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐκ Λεβνὰ εἰς Λαχὶς, καὶ περιεκάθισεν αὐτὴν, καὶ ἐπολιόρκει αὐτήν.
31 Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it.
32 Καὶ παρέδωκε Κύριος τὴν Λαχὶς εἰς τὰς χεῖρας Ἰσραήλ. καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ δευτέρᾳ, καὶ ἐφόνευσαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσαν αὐτὴν, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τὴν Λεβνά.
32 Yahweh delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel. He took it on the second day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls who were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
33 Τότε ἀνέβη Ἐλὰμ βασιλεὺς Γαζὲρ βοηθήσων τῇ Λαχείς· καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν Ἰησοῦς ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, ἕως τοῦ μὴ καταλειφθῆναι αὐτῶν σεσωσμένον καὶ διαπεφευγότα.
33 Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua struck him and his people, until he had left him no one remaining.
34 Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐκ Λαχὶς εἰς Ὀδολλὰμ, καὶ περιεκάθισεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἐξεπολιόρκησεν αὐτήν.
34 Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, to Eglon; and they encamped against it and fought against it.
35 Καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτὴν Κύριος ἐν χειρὶ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὴν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἐφόνευσεν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ πᾶν ἐμπνέον ἐν ἀτῇ ἐφόνευσαν, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τῇ Λαχίς.
35 They took it on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword. He utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
36 Καὶ ἀπῆλθεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ μετʼ αὐτοῦ εἰς Χεβρὼν, καὶ περιεκάθισεν αὐτήν.
36 Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it.
37 Καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ πᾶν τὸ ἐμπνέον ὅσα ἦν ἐν αὐτῇ· οὐκ ἦν διασεσωσμένος· ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τὴν Ὀδολλὰμ, ἐξωλόθρευσαν αὐτὴν, καὶ ὅσα ἦν ἐν αὐτῇ.
37 They took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king and all its cities, and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls who were in it.
38 Καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν Ἰησοῦς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ εἰς Δαβίρ· καὶ περικαθίσαντες αὐτὴν,
38 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it.
39 ἔλαβον αὐτὴν, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς, καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς· καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσαν αὐτὴν, καὶ πᾶν ἐμπνέον ἐν αὐτῇ· καὶ οὐ κατέλιπον αὐτῇ οὐδένα διασεσωσμένον· ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τῇ Χεβρὼν καὶ τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῆς, οὕτως ἐποίησαν τῇ Δαβὶρ καὶ τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῆς.
39 He took it, with its king and all its cities. They struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.
40 Καὶ ἐπάταξεν Ἰησοῦς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν τῆς ὀρεινῆς, καὶ τὴν Ναγὲβ, καὶ τὴν πεδινὴν, καὶ τὴν Ἀσηδὼθ, καὶ τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῆς· οὐ κατέλιπον αὐτῶν σεσωσμένον· καὶ πᾶν ἐμπνέον ζωῆς ἐξωλόθρευσεν, ὃν τρόπον ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ,
40 So Joshua struck all the land, the hill country, the South, the lowland, the slopes, and all their kings. He left no one remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, commanded.
41 ἀπὸ Κάδης Βαρνῆ ἕως Γάζης πᾶσαν τὴν Γοσὸμ ἕως τῆς Γαβαών.
41 Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea even to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon.
42 Καὶ πάντας τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν ἐπάταξεν Ἰησοῦς εἰσάπαξ· ὅτι Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ συνεπολέμει τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
42 Joshua took all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel. 43 Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The ephod and the breastplate, and other sacerdotal vestments, were formed out of five materials; for they combined in themselves gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen. And there were five kings of the Amorites, whom Joshua the son of Nun shut up in a cave, and directed the people to trample upon their heads.
