1 King Jabin of Hazor heard what Joshua did. He sent word to Jobab of Madon, to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph. 2 He sent to more kings in the north, in hills, in flat land, and by Dor in the west. ⛰️ 3 He sent to many groups: Canaanites east and west, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Jebusites in hills, and Hivites by Mount Hermon in Mizpeh. ⛰️ 4 They came with a big army. The people were like sand. They had many horses and war carts. 5 All the kings met at the water of Merom to fight Israel. ⛺⚔️ 6 God said to Joshua, "Do not be afraid. Tomorrow you will win. Cut the horse legs. Burn the war carts." ️✨ 7 Joshua and his men went fast to the water of Merom and hit them. ♂️ 8 God made Israel win. They chased them far: to big Sidon, to Misrephoth-maim, and to the valley of Mizpeh. They kept going. ♂️➡️ 9 Joshua did what God said. He cut the horse legs. He burned the war carts. 10 Joshua went back and took Hazor. He hit the king. Hazor was the big city over the other cities. ️⚔️ 11 They beat the people there. No one stayed alive. Joshua burned Hazor. ️ 12 Joshua took all those cities and kings, like Moses told. ️ 13 Israel did not burn other towns on hills. Only Hazor was burned. ⛰️️ 14 Israel took cows and things. But they did not let the people there stay. 15 God told Moses. Moses told Joshua. Joshua did it all. ✅ 16 Joshua took the land: hills, Negev (south land), Goshen, flats, and valley. ️⛰️️ 17 He took land from Mount Halak to Baal-gad by Lebanon, near Mount Hermon. He took the kings, and they died. ➡️️ 18 Joshua fought for a long time. ⏳⚔️ 19 No city became friends with Israel, only Gibeon, the Hivite people. Israel fought the rest. ✅⚔️ 20 God let their hearts be hard. They came to fight. Then they lost, like God told Moses. ❤️⚔️ 21 At that time, Joshua drove out the Anakim from the hills: from Hebron, Debir, Anab, and all the hills. He took their towns. ♂️⛰️️ 22 No Anakim stayed in Israel land. Some were left in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod. ♂️➡️️ 23 So Joshua took all the land, like God said to Moses. He gave the land to Israel. The land had rest. No war. ️️
