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.

Verse 40 is found in chapter 10 of Joshua. The summary of the southern campaign states that Joshua conquered the entire hill country, the Negev, the lowlands, and the slopes, from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza. The narrator states that the Lord fought for Israel and that Joshua returned to Gilgal. This formula summarizes an entire stage of the conquest and provides its theological interpretation: territorial expansion is presented as the result of divine action accompanied by Joshua’s obedience.

Also schlug Josua alles Land auf dem Gebirge und gegen Mittag und in den Gründen und an den Abhängen mit allen ihren Königen und ließ niemand übrigbleiben und verbannte alles, was Odem hatte, wie der HERR, der Gott Israels, geboten hatte.
Hirió pues Josué toda la región de las montañas, y del mediodía, y de los llanos, y de las cuestas, y a todos sus reyes, sin quedar nada; todo lo que tenía vida mató, al modo que Jehová Dios de Israel lo había mandado.
Josué hirió toda la tierra: la región montañosa, el Neguev, las tierras bajas y las laderas, y a todos sus reyes. No dejó sobreviviente y consagró por completo a la destrucción a todo lo que respiraba, como Jehová, Dios de Israel, había mandado.
Josué battit tout le pays, la montagne, le midi, la plaine et les coteaux, et il en battit tous les rois; il ne laissa échapper personne, et il dévoua par interdit tout ce qui respirait, comme l'avait ordonné l'Eternel, le Dieu d'Israël.
Giosuè dunque percosse tutto quel paese, la contrada del monte, e del Mezzodì, e della pianura, e delle pendici dei monti, insieme con tutti i re loro; egli non ne lasciò alcuno in vita; anzi distrusse al modo dell’interdetto ogni anima, come il Signore Iddio d’Israele avea comandato.
Assim feriu Josué toda aquela terra, as montanhas, o sul, e as campinas, e as descidas das águas, e a todos os seus reis; nada deixou; mas tudo o que tinha fôlego destruiu, como ordenara o SENHOR Deus de Israel.
這樣, 約書亞 擊敗全地的人,就是山區、 尼革夫 、低地、山坡的人,和那裏的眾王,沒有留下一個倖存者。他把凡有氣息的完全滅盡,正如耶和華- 以色列 的上帝所吩咐的。
