Now the cities H5892 of the tribe H4294 of the children H1121 of Benjamin H1144 according to their families H4940 were Jericho, H3405 and Bethhoglah, H1031 and the valley H6010 of Keziz, H7104
And they took H3920 it on that day, H3117 and smote H5221 it with the edge H6310 of the sword, H2719 and all H3605 the souls H5315 that were therein he utterly destroyed H2763 that day, H3117 according to all H3605 that he had done H6213 to Lachish. H3923
And they took H3920 it, and smote H5221 it with the edge H6310 of the sword, H2719 and the king H4428 thereof, and all H3605 the cities H5892 thereof, and all H3605 the souls H5315 that were therein; he left H7604 none H3808 remaining, H8300 according to all H3605 that he had done H6213 to Eglon; H5700 but destroyed H2763 it utterly, and all H3605 the souls H5315 that were therein.
And the city H5892 shall be accursed, H2764 even it, and all H3605 that are therein, to the LORD: H3068 only H7535 Rahab H7343 the harlot H2181 shall live, H2421 she and all H3605 that are with her in the house, H1004 because H3588 she hid H2244 the messengers H4397 that we sent. H7971
And you shall do H6213 to Ai H5857 and her king H4428 as you did H6213 to Jericho H3405 and her king: H4428 only H7535 the spoil H7998 thereof, and the cattle H929 thereof, shall you take for a prey H962 to yourselves: lay H7760 you an ambush H693 for the city H5892 behind H310 it.
And I will set H7896 your bounds H1366 from the Red H5488 sea H3220 even to the sea H3220 of the Philistines, H6430 and from the desert H4057 to the river: H5104 for I will deliver H5414 the inhabitants H3427 of the land H776 into your hand; H3027 and you shall drive H1644 them out before H413H6440 you.
32
You shall make H3772 no H3808 covenant H1285 with them, nor with their gods. H430
33
They shall not dwell H3427 in your land, H776 lest H6435 they make you sin H2398 against me: for if you serve H5647 their gods, H430 it will surely H3588 be a snare H4170 to you.
And when the LORD H3068 your God H430 shall deliver H5414 them before H6440 you; you shall smite H5221 them, and utterly destroy H2763 them; you shall make H3772 no H3808 covenant H1285 with them, nor H3808 show mercy H2603 to them:
3
Neither H3808 shall you make marriages H2859 with them; your daughter H1323 you shall not give H5414 to his son, H1121 nor H3808 his daughter H1323 shall you take H3947 to your son. H1121
4
For they will turn H5493 away your son H1121 from following H310 me, that they may serve H5647 other H312 gods: H430 so will the anger H639 of the LORD H3068 be kindled H2734 against you, and destroy H8045 you suddenly. H4118
5
But thus H3541 shall you deal H6213 with them; you shall destroy H5422 their altars, H4196 and break H7665 down their images, H4676 and cut H1438 down their groves, H842 and burn H8313 their graven H6456 images with fire. H784
The LORD H3068 did not set his love H2836 on you, nor H3808 choose H977 you, because you were more H7230 in number than any H3605 people; H5971 for you were the fewest H4592 of all H3605 people: H5971
And repays H7999 them that hate H8130 him to their face, H6440 to destroy H6 them: he will not be slack H309 to him that hates H8130 him, he will repay H7999 him to his face. H6440
11
You shall therefore keep H8104 the commandments, H4687 and the statutes, H2706 and the judgments, H4941 which H834 I command H6680 you this day, H3117 to do H6213 them.
And he will love H157 you, and bless H1288 you, and multiply H7235 you: he will also bless H1288 the fruit H6529 of your womb, H990 and the fruit H6529 of your land, H127 your corn, H1715 and your wine, H8492 and your oil, H3323 the increase H7698 of your cows, H504 and the flocks H6251 of your sheep, H6629 in the land H127 which H834 he swore H7650 to your fathers H1 to give H5414 you.
14
You shall be blessed H1288 above all H3605 people: H5971 there shall not be male or female barren H6135 among you, or among your cattle. H929
And you shall consume H398 all H3605 the people H5971 which H834 the LORD H3068 your God H430 shall deliver H5414 you; your eye H5869 shall have no H3808 pity H2347 on them: neither H3808 shall you serve H5647 their gods; H430 for that will be a snare H4170 to you.
You have avouched H559 the LORD H3068 this day H3117 to be your God, H430 and to walk H3212 in his ways, H1870 and to keep H8104 his statutes, H2706 and his commandments, H4687 and his judgments, H4941 and to listen H8085 to his voice: H6963
