Bible Reading for March 14

Joshua 10
[1] Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem had 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] That they feared
greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and
because it was greater than Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty.
[3] Wherefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham king of Hebron, and
unto Piram king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia king of Lachish, and unto Debir
king of Eglon, saying,
[4] Come up unto me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon: for it hath made
peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel. [5] Therefore the five kings
of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of
Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together,
and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Gibeon, and made war
against it. [6] And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal,
saying, Slack not thy hand from thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save
us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the mountains
are gathered together against us.
[7] So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and
all the mighty men of valour.
[8] And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them
into thine hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee. [9] Joshua
therefore came unto them suddenly, and went up from Gilgal all night.
[10] And the LORD discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great
slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Beth-horon,
and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah. [11] And it came to pass, as they
fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Beth-horon, that the
LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died:
they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel
slew with the sword. [12] Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the
LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in
the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the
valley of Ajalon. [13] And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the
people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the
book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not
to go down about a whole day.
[14] And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD
hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel. [15] And
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. [16] But
these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah. [17] And it
was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah.
[18] And Joshua said, Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave, and set men
by it for to keep them:
[19] And stay ye not, but pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of
them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the LORD your God hath
delivered them into your hand. [20] And it came to pass, when Joshua and the
children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter,
till they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them entered into
fenced cities. [21] And 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] Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out those five
kings unto me out of the cave.
[23] And they did so, and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the
cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king
of Lachish, and the king of Eglon. [24] And it came to pass, when they brought
out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and
said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him, Come near, put
your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet
upon the necks of them.
[25] And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed, be strong and of
good courage: for thus shall the LORD do to all your enemies against whom ye
fight.
[26] And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five
trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening. [27] And it came
to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and
they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had
been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this
very day. [28] And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and smote it with the edge of
the sword, and the king thereof he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls
that were therein; he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he
did unto the king of Jericho.
[29] Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah,
and fought against Libnah:
[30] And the LORD delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of
Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were
therein; he let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto
the king of Jericho.
[31] And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and
encamped against it, and fought against it: [32] And the LORD delivered Lachish
into the hand of Israel, which took it on the second day, and smote it with the
edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that
he had done to Libnah. [33] Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish;
and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining. [34]
And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they
encamped against it, and fought against it: [35] And they took it on that day,
and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein he
utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish. [36]
And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they
fought against it:
[37] And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king
thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he
left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but destroyed
it utterly, and all the souls that were therein. [38] And Joshua returned, and
all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it:
[39] And he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof; and they
smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that
were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to
Debir, and to the king thereof; as he had done also to Libnah, and to her king.
[40] So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the
vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but
utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.
[41] And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the
country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon. [42] And all these kings and their land
did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel.
[43] And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

Joshua 11
[1] And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that
he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of
Achshaph,
[2] And to the kings that were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains
south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,
[3] And to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and to the Amorite, and
the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and to the
Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh. [4] And they went out, they and all
their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore
in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.
[5] And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together
at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel. [6] And the LORD said unto
Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I
deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and
burn their chariots with fire. [7] So Joshua came, and all the people of war
with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon
them. [8] And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them,
and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephoth-maim, and unto the valley
of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.
[9] And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and
burnt their chariots with fire. [10] And Joshua at that time turned back, and
took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was
the head of all those kingdoms.
[11] And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword,
utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor
with fire.
[12] And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua
take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them,
as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded. [13] But as for the cities that
stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only;
that did Joshua burn. [14] And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle,
the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they
smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left
they any to breathe.
[15] As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and
so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
[16] So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and
all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of
Israel, and the valley of the same; [17] Even from the mount Halak, that goeth
up to Seir, even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and
all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.
[18] Joshua made war a long time with all those kings. [19] There was not a
city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the
inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle. [20] For it was of the
LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle,
that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but
that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
[21] And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains,
from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and
from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their
cities.
[22] There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel:
only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained. [23] So Joshua took the
whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it
for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes.
And the land rested from war.

Joshua 12
[1] Now these are the kings of the land, which the children of Israel smote,
and possessed their land on the other side Jordan toward the rising of the sun,
from the river Arnon unto mount Hermon, and all the plain on the east: [2]
Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which
is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from
half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of
Ammon;
[3] And from the plain to the sea of Chinneroth on the east, and unto the sea
of the plain, even the salt sea on the east, the way to Beth-jeshimoth; and
from the south, under Ashdoth-pisgah: [4] And the coast of Og king of Bashan,
which was of the remnant of the giants, that dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,
[5] And reigned in mount Hermon, and in Salcah, and in all Bashan, unto the
border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and half Gilead, the border of
Sihon king of Heshbon.
[6] Them did Moses the servant of the LORD and the children of Israel smite:
and Moses the servant of the LORD gave it for a possession unto the Reubenites,
and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh. [7] And these are the kings of
the country which Joshua and the children of Israel smote on this side Jordan
on the west, from Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon even unto the mount Halak,
that goeth up to Seir; which Joshua gave unto the tribes of Israel for a
possession according to their divisions; [8] In the mountains, and in the
valleys, and in the plains, and in the springs, and in the wilderness, and in
the south country; the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Canaanites, the
Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites:
[9] The king of Jericho, one; the king of Ai, which is beside Bethel, one; [10]
The king of Jerusalem, one; the king of Hebron, one; [11] The king of Jarmuth,
one; the king of Lachish, one; [12] The king of Eglon, one; the king of Gezer,
one; [13] The king of Debir, one; the king of Geder, one; [14] The king of
Hormah, one; the king of Arad, one; [15] The king of Libnah, one; the king of
Adullam, one; [16] The king of Makkedah, one; the king of Bethel, one; [17] The
king of Tappuah, one; the king of Hepher, one; [18] The king of Aphek, one; the
king of Lasharon, one; [19] The king of Madon, one; the king of Hazor, one;
[20] The king of Shimron-meron, one; the king of Achshaph, one; [21] The king
of Taanach, one; the king of Megiddo, one; [22] The king of Kedesh, one; the
king of Jokneam of Carmel, one; [23] The king of Dor in the coast of Dor, one;
the king of the nations of Gilgal, one;
[24] The king of Tirzah, one: all the kings thirty and one.
