Then did the sons of Israel make outcry unto Yahweh, saying, - We have sinned against thee, because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baals. Then said Yahweh unto the sons of Israel, - Was it not, from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, that I saved you ? The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, oppressed you, - and ye made outcry unto me, and I saved you out of their hand. Yet have, ye, forsaken me, and served other gods, - therefore will I not again save you. Go and make outcry unto the gods whom ye have chosen, - they, must save you, in the time of your tribulation. And the sons of Israel said unto Yahweh - We have sinned, do, thou, with us, according to all that is fitting in thine eyes, - only rescue us, we beseech thee this day. And they put away the gods of the stranger out of their midst, and served Yahweh, - and his soul was impatient of the misery of Israel. Now the sons of Ammon were called out, and they encamped in Gilead, - and the sons of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpah. Then said the people, the princes of Gilead, one to another, Who is the man that will begin to fight against the sons of Ammon? he shall become head to all the inhabitants of Gilead.

Thy house, will we consume over thee with fire. And Jephthah said unto them, Great strife, had, I and my people, even with the sons of Ammon; but, when I cried unto you for help, ye saved me not out of their hand. So, when I saw that thou wast not going to save, then put I my life in my hand, and passed over against the sons of Ammon, and Yahweh delivered them into my hand. Wherefore, then, have ye come up against me this day, to fight against me?

Canaanites » Defeated by the israelites
And the Canaanite, the king of Arad who dwelt in the South, heard that Israel had entered by the way of Atharim, - so he made war with Israel, and took some of them captive. Then Israel vowed vow unto Yahweh, and said, - If thou wilt, surely deliver up, this people into my band, then will I utterly destroy their cities.

and they came out - they, and all their hosts with them, much people, like the sand that is upon the seashore for multitude, - with horses and chariots very many. And, when all these kings were gathered together, they came in, and encamped as one man, at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel. Then said Yahweh unto Joshua - Do not fear because of them, for, to-morrow, about this time, am I going to deliver up all of them, slain, before Israel, - their horses, shalt thou ham-string, and, their chariots, shalt thou burn up with fire. So Joshua, and all the army with him, came in upon them, by the waters of Merom, suddenly, and fell upon them. And Yahweh delivered them up into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, and chased them as far as great Zidon, and as far as Misrephoth-maim, and as far as the valley of Mizpeh, eastward, - yea they smote them until they left them not a survivor. And Joshua did unto them, as Yahweh had said unto him, - their horses, he ham-strung, and, their chariots, burned he up with fire. Then Joshua turned back, at that time, and captured Hazor, and, the king thereof, smote he with the sword, - for, Hazor, aforetime, was the head of all these kingdoms. And they smote all the souls that were therein, with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, there was left no breathing thing, - and, Hazor, burned he up with fire. And, all the cities of these kings, and all the kings thereof, did Joshua capture, and he smote them with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, - as Moses, the servant of Yahweh, commanded. Yet, none of the cities that were still standing upon their mound, did Israel burn, none but Hazor alone, did Joshua burn. But, all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, did the sons of Israel take as their prey, - nevertheless, all the human beings, smote they with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, they left remaining no breathing thing. As Yahweh commanded Moses his servant, so, Moses commanded Joshua, and, so, Joshua, did, he set aside nothing of all that Yahweh commanded Moses. So Joshua took all this land - the hill country, and all the south, and all the land of Goshen, and the lowland, and the waste plain, - and the hill country of Israel, and the lowland thereof:

And, Deborah, a woman who was a prophetess, wife of Lapidoth, she, was judging Israel, at that time: she used to sit, therefore, under the palm-tree of Deborah, between Ramah and Bethel, in the hill country of Ephraim, - and the sons of Israel came up to her, for justice. And she sent and called for Barak son of Abinoam, out of Kadesh-naphtali, - and said unto him - Hath not Yahweh God of Israel, commanded, - Come and draw towards Mount Tabor, and bring with thee - ten thousand men, of the sons of Naphtali, and of the sons of Zebulun; read more.
and I will draw unto thee, unto the torrent of Kishon, Sisera, prince of the host of Jabin, with his chariots, and with his multitude, - and will deliver him into thy hand? And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then will I go - but, if thou wilt not go with me, I will not go. And she said - I will, go, with thee; only, it shall not be, thine own honour, that shall arise from the journey which thou art about to take, for, into the hand of a woman, will Yahweh sell Sisera. So Deborah arose, and went with Barak, towards Kadesh. And Barak called together Zebulun and Naphtali, towards Kadesh, and there went up at his feet - ten thousand men, - and Deborah, went up with him. Now, Heber the Kenite, had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the sons of Hobab, father-in-law of Moses, - and moved his tent as far as the oak of Zaanaim, which is near Kadesh. And they told Sisera that Barak, son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor. So Sisera called together all his chariots - nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, - from Harosheth of the nations, unto the torrent of Kishon. Then said Deborah unto Barak - Up! for, this, is the day on which Yahweh hath delivered Sisera into thy hand, hath not, Yahweh, gone forth before thee? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, with ten thousand men after him. And Yahweh put to flight Sisera and all the chariots and all the host, with the edge of the sword, before Barak, - so Sisera alighted from his chariot, and fled on foot. Now, Barak, pursued the chariots, and the host, as far as Harosheth of the nations, - and all the host of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword, there was not left so much as one. Now, Sisera, had fled on foot, unto the tent of Jael, wife of Heber the Kenite, for there was peace between Jabin, king of Hazer, and the house of Heber the Kenite. And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said unto him: Turn aside, my lord, turn aside with me, do not fear. So he turned aside with her into the tent, and she threw over him a coverlet. And he said unto her - Let me drink, I pray thee, a little water, for I am thirsty. So she opened the bottle of milk, and gave him to drink, and spread over him the coverlet. And he said unto her, Stand at the entrance of the tent, - and it shall be, if any man come and ask thee and say - Is there here a man? that thou shalt say, There is not. Then took Jael, wife of Heber, the tent-pin, and put the mallet in her hand, and went in unto him, softly, and smote the tent-pin into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground, - he being fast asleep and shrouded in darkness, and he died. And lo! Barak - in pursuit of Sisera! So Jael went forth to meet him, and said unto him, Come and let me shew thee - the man whom thou art seeking. And he came in with her, and lo! Sisera - lying dead, with the tent-pin in his temples. Thus God subdued, on that day, Jabin king of Canaan, - before the sons of Israel. And the hand of the sons of Israel went on, waxing more and more heavy upon Jabin king of Canaan, - until they had cut off Jabin king of Canaan.
