And Joshua the son of
Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his
hands upon him: and the children of Israel
hearkened unto him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.

hands all the land; for even all the inhabitants of the country do
faint because of us.
“The LORD has surely delivered the entire land into our hands,” they said to Joshua. “Indeed, all who dwell in the land are melting in fear of us.”
That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the LORD your God for ever.

And it came to pass, when Joshua was by
Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his
hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our
adversaries?
Now when Joshua was near
Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in His
hand. Joshua approached Him and asked, “Are You for us or for our enemies?”
And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine
hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
And the LORD said to Joshua, “Behold, I have delivered
Jericho into your
hand, along with its king and its mighty men of
valor.
And Joshua said,
Alas, O Lord GOD, wherefore hast thou at all brought this people over Jordan, to deliver us into the
hand of the
Amorites, to destroy us? would to God we had been content, and dwelt on the other side Jordan!

hand of the
Amorites to be destroyed? If only we had been content to stay on the other side of the Jordan!
And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee, and arise, go up to
Ai: see, I have given into thy
hand the king of
Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land:
Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid or discouraged. Take the whole army with you, and go up and attack
Ai. See, I have delivered into your
hand the king of
Ai, his people, his city, and his land.
Then ye shall rise up from the
ambush, and seize upon the city: for the LORD your God will deliver it into your
hand.
you are to rise from the
ambush and seize the city, for the LORD your God will deliver it into your
hand.
And the LORD said unto Joshua, Stretch out the
spear that is in thy
hand toward
Ai; for I will give it into thine
hand. And Joshua stretched out the
spear that he had in his
hand toward the city.
Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Hold out your battle
lance toward
Ai, for into your
hand I will deliver the city.” So Joshua held out his battle
lance toward
Ai,
And the
ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his
hand: and they entered into the city, and took it, and hasted and set the city on fire.
and as soon as he did so, the men in
ambush rose quickly from their position. They
rushed forward, entered the city, captured it, and immediately set it on fire.
For Joshua drew not his
hand back,
wherewith he stretched out the
spear, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of
Ai.
Joshua did not draw back the
hand that held his battle
lance until he had devoted to destruction all who lived in
Ai.
And the king of
Ai he
hanged on a tree until
eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his
carcase down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise
thereon a great
heap of stones, that remaineth unto this day.
He hung the king of
Ai on a tree until evening, and at
sunset Joshua commanded that they take down the body from the tree and throw it down at the entrance of the city gate. And over it they raised a large pile of rocks, which remains to this day.

hand of the children of Israel, that they
slew them not.
So Joshua did this and delivered them from the hands of the Israelites, and they did not kill the Gibeonites.
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.
Then the men of
Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at
Gilgal: “Do not
abandon your servants. Come quickly and save us! Help us, because all the kings of the
Amorites from the hill country have joined forces against us.”
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.
The LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for I have delivered them into your hand. Not one of them shall stand against you.”
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.
But you, do not stop there. Pursue your enemies and attack them from behind. Do not let them reach their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
And afterward Joshua
smote them, and
slew them, and
hanged them on five trees: and they were
hanging upon the trees until the evening.
After this, Joshua struck down and killed the kings, and he hung their bodies on five trees and left them there until evening.
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.
And the LORD also delivered that city and its king into the
hand of Israel, and Joshua put all the people to the sword, leaving no survivors. And he did to the king of
Libnah as he had done to the king of
Jericho.
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.
And the LORD delivered
Lachish into the
hand of Israel, and Joshua captured it on the second day. He put all the people to the sword, just as he had done to
Libnah.
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.
and the LORD delivered them into the
hand of Israel, who struck them down and pursued them all the way to Greater
Sidon and Misrephoth-
maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, leaving no survivors.

dagon, touched

Speak to the children of Israel, saying,
Appoint out for you cities of refuge,
whereof I spake unto you by the
hand of Moses:
Now if the
avenger of blood pursues him, they must not surrender the
manslayer into his
hand, because that man killed his
neighbor accidentally without prior
malice.
These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that
whosoever killeth any person at unawares might
flee thither, and not die by the
hand of the
avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.
These are the cities appointed for all the Israelites and foreigners among them, so that
anyone who kills a person
unintentionally may

hand of the
avenger of blood prior to standing trial before the assembly.

sworn to their fathers. None of their enemies could stand against them, for the LORD delivered all their enemies into their
hand.

Reuben and the children of
Gad and the half tribe of
Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of
Shiloh, which is in the land of
Canaan, to go unto the country of
Gilead, to the land of their possession,
whereof they were possessed, according to the word of the LORD by the
hand of Moses.
So the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of
Manasseh left the Israelites at
Shiloh in the land of
Canaan to return to their own land of
Gilead, which they had acquired according to the command of the LORD through Moses.
And
Phinehas the son of
Eleazar the priest said unto the children of
Reuben, and to the children of
Gad, and to the children of
Manasseh, This day we perceive that the LORD is among us, because ye have not committed this
trespass against the LORD: now ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the
hand of the LORD.
Phinehas son of
Eleazar the priest said to the descendants of
Reuben,
Gad, and
Manasseh, “
Today we know that the LORD is among us, because you have not committed this breach of faith against Him. Consequently, you have delivered the Israelites from the
hand of the LORD.”

hand, that you should possess their land when I destroyed them before you.

hands of those who
plundered them. He sold them into the
hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist.

hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had
sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.

hand of the LORD was against them to bring
calamity, just as He had
sworn to them. So they were greatly distressed.

hand of those that
spoiled them.
Then the LORD raised up judges, who saved them from the
hands of those who
plundered them.

hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it
repented the LORD because of their groanings by reason of them that
oppressed them and
vexed them.
Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for the Israelites, He was with that judge and saved them from the
hands of their enemies while the judge was still alive; for the LORD was moved to
pity by their
groaning under those who
oppressed them and
afflicted them.

cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of

Benjamite, a man lefthanded: and by him the children of Israel sent a present unto
Eglon the king of Moab.
And again they
cried out to the LORD, and He raised up Ehud son of
Gera, a left-
handed Benjamite, as their deliverer. So they sent him with tribute to
Eglon king of Moab.
And Ehud put forth his left
hand, and took the
dagger from his right
thigh, and thrust it into his
belly:
And Ehud reached with his left
hand, pulled the sword from his right
thigh, and
plunged it into

dagger out of his
belly; and the
dirt came out.

Canaan, who reigned in Hazor. The commander of his forces was Sisera, who lived in
Harosheth-hagoyim.

Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his
chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine
hand.
And I will draw out Sisera the commander of Jabin’s army, his
chariots, and his troops to the River
Kishon, and I will deliver him into your
hand.’”

hand of a woman. And
Deborah arose, and went with
Barak to Kedesh.

Deborah replied, “but the road you are taking will bring you no honor, because the LORD will be selling Sisera into the
hand of a woman.” So
Deborah got up and went with
Barak to Kedesh,
And
Deborah said unto
Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD hath delivered Sisera into thine
hand: is not the LORD gone out before thee? So
Barak went down from mount
Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.

hand. Has not the LORD gone before you?” So
Barak came down from Mount
Tabor with ten thousand men following him.
Then Jael

asleep and
weary. So he died.

peg through his temple and into the ground, and he died.

befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath
forsaken us, and delivered us into the
hands of the Midianites.
“Please, my Lord,”
Gideon replied, “if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all His wonders of which our fathers told us, saying, ‘Has not the LORD brought us up out of Egypt?’ But now the LORD has
forsaken us and delivered us into the
hand of
Midian.”
And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee?
The LORD turned to him and said, “Go in the strength you have and save Israel from the
hand of
Midian. Am I not sending you?”

wilt save Israel by mine
hand, as thou hast said,

hand, as You have said,
Behold, I will put a
fleece of wool in the floor; and if the
dew be on the
fleece only, and it be dry upon all the earth beside, then shall I know that thou
wilt save Israel by mine
hand, as thou hast said.
then behold, I will place a
fleece of wool on the
threshing floor. If there is
dew only on the
fleece and all the ground is dry, then I will know that You are going to save Israel by my
hand, as You have said.”
And the LORD said unto
Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their
hands, lest Israel
vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own
hand hath saved me.
Then the LORD said to
Gideon, “You have too many people for Me to deliver
Midian into their
hands, lest Israel
glorify themselves over Me, saying, ‘My own
hand has saved me.’
And the number of them that
lapped, putting their
hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water.
And the number of those who
lapped the water with their
hands to their mouths was three hundred men; all the others
knelt to drink.
And the LORD said unto
Gideon, By the three hundred men that
lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine
hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place.
Then the LORD said to
Gideon, “With the three hundred men who
lapped the water I will save you and deliver the Midianites into your
hand. But all the others are to go home.”
So the people took
victuals in their
hand, and their
trumpets: and he sent all the rest of Israel every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men: and the host of
Midian was beneath him in the valley.
So
Gideon sent the rest of the Israelites to their tents but kept the three hundred men, who took charge of the provisions and rams’ horns of the others. And the camp of
Midian lay below him in the valley.
And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand.
That night the LORD said to
Gideon, “Get up and go down against the camp, for I have delivered it into your
hand.
And thou shalt hear what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go down unto the host. Then went he down with Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the host.
and
listen to what they are saying. Then your
hands will be strengthened to attack the camp.” So he went with Purah his servant to the outposts where armed men were guarding the camp.
And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of
Gideon the son of
Joash, a man of Israel: for into his
hand hath God delivered
Midian, and all the host.
His friend replied: “This is nothing less than the sword of
Gideon son of
Joash, the
Israelite. God has delivered
Midian and the whole camp into his
hand.”
And it was so, when
Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the LORD hath delivered into your
hand the host of
Midian.
When
Gideon heard the dream and its interpretation, he bowed in worship. He returned to the camp of Israel and said, “Get up, for the LORD has delivered the camp of
Midian into your
hand.”
And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a
trumpet in every man’s
hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
And he divided the three hundred men into three companies and gave each man a ram’s horn in one
hand and a large
jar in the other, containing a
torch.
