Now JerichoH3405 was straitlyH5462 shut upH5462 becauseH6440 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: none went outH3318, and none came inH935. {was…: Heb. did shut up, and was shut up}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, SeeH7200, I have givenH5414 into thine handH3027 JerichoH3405, and the kingH4428 thereof, and the mighty menH1368 of valourH2428.
And ye shall compassH5437 the cityH5892, all ye menH582 of warH4421, and go round aboutH5362 the cityH5892 onceH6471+H259. Thus shalt thou doH6213 sixH8337 daysH3117.
And sevenH7651 priestsH3548 shall bearH5375 beforeH6440 the arkH727 sevenH7651 trumpetsH7782 of rams' hornsH3104: and the seventhH7637 dayH3117 ye shall compassH5437 the cityH5892 sevenH7651 timesH6471, and the priestsH3548 shall blowH8628 with the trumpetsH7782.
And it shall come to pass, that when they make a longH4900 blast with the ram'sH3104 hornH7161, and when ye hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, all the peopleH5971 shall shoutH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643; and the wallH2346 of the cityH5892 shall fall downH5307 flatH8478, and the peopleH5971 shall ascend upH5927 every manH376 straight before him. {flat: Heb. under it}
And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 calledH7121 the priestsH3548, and saidH559 unto them, Take upH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, and let sevenH7651 priestsH3548 bearH5375 sevenH7651 trumpetsH7782 of rams' hornsH3104 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068.
And he saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, Pass onH5674, and compassH5437 the cityH5892, and let him that is armedH2502 pass onH5674 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068.
And it came to pass, when JoshuaH3091 had spokenH559 unto the peopleH5971, that the sevenH7651 priestsH3548 bearingH5375 the sevenH7651 trumpetsH7782 of rams' hornsH3104 passed onH5674 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and blewH8628 with the trumpetsH7782: and the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 followedH1980 themH310.
And the armedH2502 men wentH1980 beforeH6440 the priestsH3548 that blewH8628+H8628 with the trumpetsH7782, and the rerewardH622 cameH1980 afterH310 the arkH727, the priests going onH1980, and blowingH8628 with the trumpetsH7782. {rereward: Heb. gathering host}
And JoshuaH3091 had commandedH6680 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, Ye shall not shoutH7321, nor make any noiseH8085 with your voiceH6963, neither shall any wordH1697 proceedH3318 out of your mouthH6310, until the dayH3117 I bidH559 you shoutH7321; then shall ye shoutH7321. {any noise…: Heb. your voice to be heard}
So the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 compassedH5437 the cityH5892, going aboutH5362 it onceH6471+H259: and they cameH935 into the campH4264, and lodgedH3885 in the campH4264.
And JoshuaH3091 rose earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and the priestsH3548 took upH5375 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068.
And sevenH7651 priestsH3548 bearingH5375 sevenH7651 trumpetsH7782 of rams' hornsH3104 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 went onH1980 continuallyH1980, and blewH8628 with the trumpetsH7782: and the armed menH2502 wentH1980 beforeH6440 them; but the rerewardH622 cameH1980 afterH310 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, the priests going onH1980, and blowingH8628 with the trumpetsH7782.
And the secondH8145 dayH3117 they compassedH5437 the cityH5892 onceH6471+H259, and returnedH7725 into the campH4264: so they didH6213 sixH8337 daysH3117.
And it came to pass on the seventhH7637 dayH3117, that they rose earlyH7925 about the dawningH5927 of the dayH7837, and compassedH5437 the cityH5892 after the same mannerH4941 sevenH7651 timesH6471: only on that dayH3117 they compassedH5437 the cityH5892 sevenH7651 timesH6471.
And it came to pass at the seventhH7637 timeH6471, when the priestsH3548 blewH8628 with the trumpetsH7782, JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, ShoutH7321; for the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 you the cityH5892.
And the cityH5892 shall be accursedH2764, even it, and all that are therein, to the LORDH3068: only RahabH7343 the harlotH2181 shall liveH2421, she and all that are with her in the houseH1004, because she hidH2244 the messengersH4397 that we sentH7971. {accursed: or, devoted}
And ye, in any wiseH7535 keepH8104 yourselves from the accursed thingH2764, lest ye make yourselves accursedH2763, when ye takeH3947 of the accursed thingH2764, and makeH7760 the campH4264 of IsraelH3478 a curseH2764, and troubleH5916 it. {accursed: or, devoted} {a curse: or, devoted}
But all the silverH3701, and goldH2091, and vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 and ironH1270, are consecratedH6944 unto the LORDH3068: they shall comeH935 into the treasuryH214 of the LORDH3068. {consecrated: Heb. holiness}
So the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 when the priests blewH8628 with the trumpetsH7782: and it came to pass, when the peopleH5971 heardH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, and the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, that the wallH2346 fell down flatH5307, so that the peopleH5971 went upH5927 into the cityH5892, every manH376 straight before him, and they tookH3920 the cityH5892. {flat: Heb. under it}
And they utterly destroyedH2763 all that was in the cityH5892, both manH376 and womanH802, youngH5288 and oldH2205, and oxH7794, and sheepH7716, and assH2543, with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
But JoshuaH3091 had saidH559 unto the twoH8147 menH582 that had spied outH7270 the countryH776, GoH935 into the harlot'sH2181 houseH1004, and bring outH3318 thence the womanH802, and all that she hath, as ye swareH7650 unto her.
And the young menH5288 that were spiesH7270 went inH935, and brought outH3318 RahabH7343, and her fatherH1, and her motherH517, and her brethrenH251, and all that she had; and they brought outH3318 all her kindredH4940, and leftH3240 them withoutH2351 the campH4264 of IsraelH3478. {kindred: Heb. families}
And they burntH8313 the cityH5892 with fireH784, and all that was therein: only the silverH3701, and the goldH2091, and the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 and of ironH1270, they putH5414 into the treasuryH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And JoshuaH3091 savedH2421 RahabH7343 the harlotH2181 aliveH2421, and her father'sH1 householdH1004, and all that she had; and she dwellethH3427 inH7130 IsraelH3478 even unto this dayH3117; because she hidH2244 the messengersH4397, which JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 to spy outH7270 JerichoH3405.
And JoshuaH3091 adjuredH7650 them at that timeH6256, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, that riseth upH6965 and buildethH1129 this cityH5892 JerichoH3405: he shall lay the foundationH3245 thereof in his firstbornH1060, and in his youngestH6810 son shall he set upH5324 the gatesH1817 of it.
So the LORDH3068 was with JoshuaH3091; and his fameH8089 was noised throughout all the countryH776.

And the priestH3548 shall charge her by an oathH7650, and sayH559 unto the womanH802, If no manH376 have lainH7901 with thee, and if thou hast not gone asideH7847 to uncleannessH2932 with another instead of thy husbandH376, be thou freeH5352 from this bitterH4751 waterH4325 that causeth the curseH779: {with another…: or, being in the power of thy husband: Heb. under thy husband}
But if thou hast gone asideH7847 to another instead of thy husbandH376, and if thou be defiledH2930, and some manH376 haveH5414 lainH7903 with thee besideH1107 thine husbandH376:
Then the priestH3548 shall chargeH7650 the womanH802 with an oathH7621 of cursingH423, and the priestH3548 shall sayH559 unto the womanH802, The LORDH3068 makeH5414 thee a curseH423 and an oathH7621 amongH8432 thy peopleH5971, when the LORDH3068 doth makeH5414 thy thighH3409 to rotH5307, and thy bellyH990 to swellH6639; {rot: Heb. fall}
In his daysH3117 did HielH2419 the BetheliteH1017 buildH1129 JerichoH3405: he laid the foundationH3245 thereof in AbiramH48 his firstbornH1060, and set upH5324 the gatesH1817 thereof in his youngestH6810 son SegubH7687, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 byH3027 JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126.
And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were distressedH5065 that dayH3117: for SaulH7586 had adjuredH422 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 that eatethH398 any foodH3899 until eveningH6153, that I may be avengedH5358 on mine enemiesH341. So none of the peopleH5971 tastedH2938 any foodH3899.
And all they of the landH776 cameH935 to a woodH3293; and there was honeyH1706 uponH6440 the groundH7704.
And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 into the woodH3293, behold, the honeyH1706 droppedH1982; but no man putH5381 his handH3027 to his mouthH6310: for the peopleH5971 fearedH3372 the oathH7621.
But JonathanH3129 heardH8085 not when his fatherH1 chargedH7650 the peopleH5971 with the oathH7650: wherefore he put forthH7971 the endH7097 of the rodH4294 that was in his handH3027, and dippedH2881 it in an honeycombH3295+H1706, and putH7725 his handH3027 to his mouthH6310; and his eyesH5869 were enlightenedH215.
Then answeredH6030 oneH376 of the peopleH5971, and saidH559, Thy fatherH1 straitlyH7650 chargedH7650 the peopleH5971 with an oathH7650, sayingH559, CursedH779 be the manH376 that eatethH398 any foodH3899 this dayH3117. And the peopleH5971 were faintH5774. {faint: or, weary}
Then saidH559 JonathanH3129, My fatherH1 hath troubledH5916 the landH776: seeH7200, I pray you, how mine eyesH5869 have been enlightenedH215, because I tastedH2938 a littleH4592 of this honeyH1706.
How much moreH637, if haplyH3863 the peopleH5971 had eatenH398 freelyH398 to dayH3117 of the spoilH7998 of their enemiesH341 which they foundH4672? for had there not been now a much greaterH7235 slaughterH4347 among the PhilistinesH6430?
And they smoteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430 that dayH3117 from MichmashH4363 to AijalonH357: and the peopleH5971 were veryH3966 faintH5774.
And the peopleH5971 flewH5860+H6213 upon the spoilH7998, and tookH3947 sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and calvesH1121, and slewH7819 them on the groundH776: and the peopleH5971 did eatH398 them with the bloodH1818.
Then they toldH5046 SaulH7586, sayingH559, Behold, the peopleH5971 sinH2398 against the LORDH3068, in that they eatH398 with the bloodH1818. And he saidH559, Ye have transgressedH898: rollH1556 a greatH1419 stoneH68 unto me this dayH3117. {transgressed: or, dealt treacherously}
And SaulH7586 saidH559, DisperseH6327 yourselves among the peopleH5971, and sayH559 unto them, Bring me hitherH5066 every manH376 his oxH7794, and every manH376 his sheepH7716, and slayH7819 them here, and eatH398; and sinH2398 not against the LORDH3068 in eatingH398 with the bloodH1818. And all the peopleH5971 broughtH5066 every manH376 his oxH7794 with himH3027 that nightH3915, and slewH7819 them there. {with him: Heb. in his hand}
And SaulH7586 builtH1129 an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068: the same was the firstH2490 altarH4196 that he builtH1129 unto the LORDH3068. {the same…: Heb. that altar he began to build unto the LORD}
And SaulH7586 saidH559, Let us go downH3381 afterH310 the PhilistinesH6430 by nightH3915, and spoilH962 them until the morningH1242 lightH216, and let us not leaveH7604 a manH376 of them. And they saidH559, DoH6213 whatsoever seemethH5869 goodH2896 unto thee. Then saidH559 the priestH3548, Let us draw nearH7126 hitherH1988 unto GodH430.
And SaulH7586 askedH7592 counsel of GodH430, Shall I go downH3381 afterH310 the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414 them into the handH3027 of IsraelH3478? But he answeredH6030 him not that dayH3117.
And SaulH7586 saidH559, Draw ye nearH5066 hitherH1988, all the chiefH6438 of the peopleH5971: and knowH3045 and seeH7200 whereinH4100 this sinH2403 hath been this dayH3117. {chief: Heb. corners}
For, as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, which savethH3467 IsraelH3478, though it beH3426 in JonathanH3129 my sonH1121, he shall surelyH4191 dieH4191. But there was not a man among all the peopleH5971 that answeredH6030 him.
Then saidH559 he unto all IsraelH3478, Be ye on oneH259 sideH5676, and I and JonathanH3129 my sonH1121 will be on the otherH259 sideH5676. And the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, DoH6213 what seemethH5869 goodH2896 unto thee.
Therefore SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, GiveH3051 a perfectH8549 lot. And SaulH7586 and JonathanH3129 were takenH3920: but the peopleH5971 escapedH3318. {Give…: or, Shew the innocent} {escaped: Heb. went forth}
And SaulH7586 saidH559, CastH5307 lots between me and JonathanH3129 my sonH1121. And JonathanH3129 was takenH3920.
Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to JonathanH3129, TellH5046 me what thou hast doneH6213. And JonathanH3129 toldH5046 him, and saidH559, I did butH2938 tasteH2938 a littleH4592 honeyH1706 with the endH7097 of the rodH4294 that was in mine handH3027, and, loH2009, I must dieH4191.
And SaulH7586 answeredH559, GodH430 do soH6213 and more alsoH3254: for thou shalt surelyH4191 dieH4191, JonathanH3129.
And the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, Shall JonathanH3129 dieH4191, who hath wroughtH6213 this greatH1419 salvationH3444 in IsraelH3478? God forbidH2486: as the LORDH3068 livethH2416, there shall not one hairH8185 of his headH7218 fallH5307 to the groundH776; for he hath wroughtH6213 with GodH430 this dayH3117. So the peopleH5971 rescuedH6299 JonathanH3129, that he diedH4191 not.
Then SaulH7586 went upH5927 from followingH310 the PhilistinesH6430: and the PhilistinesH6430 wentH1980 to their own placeH4725.
Whereas EdomH123 saithH559, We are impoverishedH7567, but we will returnH7725 and buildH1129 the desolate placesH2723; thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, They shall buildH1129, but I will throw downH2040; and they shall callH7121 them, The borderH1366 of wickednessH7564, and, The peopleH5971 against whom the LORDH3068 hath indignationH2194 forH5704 everH5769.
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto him, How many timesH6471 shall I adjureH7650 thee that thou tellH1696 me nothing but that which is trueH571 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068?
