11:5 conveneruntque omnes reges isti in unum ad aquas Merom ut pugnarent contra Israhel | 11:5. And all these kings assembled together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel. |
11:6 dixitque Dominus ad Iosue ne timeas eos cras enim hac eadem hora ego tradam omnes istos vulnerandos in conspectu Israhel equos eorum subnervabis et currus igne conbures | 11:6. And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for to morrow at this same hour I will deliver all these to be slain in the sight of Israel: thou shalt hamstring their horses, and thou shalt burn their chariots with fire. |

And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they defeated them, and chased them as far as the great Sidon and the waters of Maserophot, and the field of Masphe, which is on the east thereof. He slew them all, so as to leave no remains of them: |
11:9 fecit sicut praeceperat ei Dominus equos eorum subnervavit currusque conbusit | 11:9. And he did as the Lord had commanded him, he hamstringed their horses and burned their chariots. |

11:13 absque urbibus quae erant in collibus et in tumulis sitae ceteras succendit Israhel unam tantum Asor munitissimam flamma consumpsit | 11:13. Except the cities that were on hills and high places, the rest Israel burned: only Asor that was very strong he consumed with fire. |
11:14 omnemque praedam istarum urbium ac iumenta diviserunt sibi filii Israhel cunctis hominibus interfectis | 11:14. And the children of Israel divided among themselves all the spoil of these cities and the cattle, killing all the men. |
11:15 sicut praeceperat Dominus Mosi servo suo ita praecepit Moses Iosue et ille universa conplevit non praeteriit de universis mandatis ne unum quidem verbum quod iusserat Dominus Mosi | 11:15.
