AND Ihuriy king of Shiyloh came up to assist Eylon, and he approached Ya`aqov, when Ya`aqov drew his bow that was in his hand and with an arrow struck Ihuriy which caused his death.
And when Ihuriy king of Shiyloh was dead, the four remaining kings fled from their station with the rest of the captains, and they endeavored to retreat, saying, We have no more strength with the Ivriym after their having killed the three kings and their captains who were more powerful than we are.
And when the sons of Ya`aqov saw that the remaining kings had removed from their station, they pursued them, and Ya`aqov also came from the heap of Shekem from the place where he was standing, and they went after the kings and they approached them with their servants.
And the kings and the captains with the rest of their armies, seeing that the sons of Ya`aqov approached them, were afraid of their lives and fled till they reached the city of Chazar.
And the sons of Ya`aqov pursued them to the gate of the city of Chazar, and they smote a great smiting amongst the kings and their armies, about four thousand men, and while they were smiting the army of the kings, Ya`aqov was occupied with his bow confining himself to smiting the kings, and he slew them all.
And he slew Parathon king of Chazar at the gate of the city of Chazar, and he afterward smote Cuciy king of Sarton, and Lavan king of Beyt Choron, and Shaviyr king of Machnaymah, and he slew them all with arrows, an arrow to each of them, and they died.
And the sons of Ya`aqov seeing that all the kings were dead and that they were broken up and retreating, continued to carry on the battle with the armies of the kings opposite the gate of Chazar, and they still smote about four hundred of their men.
And three men of the servants of Ya`aqov fell in that battle, and when Yahudah saw that three of his servants had died, it grieved him greatly, and his anger burned within him against the Emoriym.
And all the men that remained of the armies of the kings were greatly afraid of their lives, and they ran and broke the gate of the walls of the city of Chazar, and they all entered the city for safety.
And they concealed themselves in the midst of the city of Chazar, for the city of Chazar was very large and extensive, and when all these armies had entered the city, the sons of Ya`aqov ran after them to the city.
And four mighty men, experienced in battle, went forth from the city and stood against the entrance of the city, with drawn swords and spears in their hands, and they placed themselves opposite the sons of Ya`aqov, and would not suffer them to enter the city.
And Naphtaliy ran and came between them and with his sword smote two of them, and cut off their heads at one stroke.
And he turned to the other two, and behold they had fled, and he pursued them, overtook them, smote them and slew them.
And the sons of Ya`aqov came to the city and saw, and behold there was another wall to the city, and they sought for the gate of the wall and could not find it, and Yahudah sprang upon the top of the wall, and Shim`on and Leviy followed him, and they all three descended from the wall into the city.
And Shim`on and Leviy slew all the men who ran for safety into the city, and also the inhabitants of the city with their women and little ones, they slew with the edge of the sword, and the cries of the city ascended up to heaven.
And Dan and Naphtaliy sprang upon the wall to see what caused the noise of lamentation, for the sons of Ya`aqov felt anxious about their brothers, and they heard the inhabitants of the city speaking with weeping and supplications, saying, Take all that we possess in the city and go away, only do not put us to death.
And when Yahudah, Shim`on, and Leviy had ceased smiting the inhabitants of the city, they ascended the wall and called to Dan and Naphtaliy, who were upon the wall, and to the rest of their brothers, and Shim`on and Leviy informed them of the entrance into the city, and all the sons of Ya`aqov came to fetch the spoil.
And the sons of Ya`aqov took the spoil of the city of Chazar, the flocks and herds, and the property, and they took all that could be captured, and went away that day from the city.
And on the next day the sons of Ya`aqov went to Sarton, for they heard that the men of Sarton who had remained in the city were assembling to fight with them for having slain their king, and Sarton was a very high and fortified city, and it had a deep rampart surrounding the city.
And the pillar of the rampart was about fifty cubits and its breadth forty cubits, and there was no place for a man to enter the city on account of the rampart, and the sons of Ya`aqov saw the rampart of the city, and they sought an entrance in it but could not find it.
For the entrance to the city was at the rear, and every man that wished to come into the city came by that road and went around the whole city, and he afterwards entered the city.
And the sons of Ya`aqov seeing they could not find the way into the city, their anger was kindled greatly, and the inhabitants of the city seeing that the sons of Ya'aqov were coming to them were greatly afraid of them, for they had heard of their strength and what they had done to Chazar.
And the inhabitants of the city of Sarton could not go out toward the sons of Ya`aqov after having assembled in the city to fight against them, lest they might thereby get into the city, but when they saw that they were coming toward them, they were greatly afraid of them, for they had heard of their strength and what they had done to Chazar.
So the inhabitants of Sarton speedily took away the bridge of the road of the city, from its place, before the sons of Ya`aqov came, and they brought it into the city.
And the sons of Ya`aqov came and sought the way into the city, and could not find it and the inhabitants of the city went up to the top of the wall, and saw, and behold the sons of Ya`aqov were seeking an entrance into the city.
And the inhabitants of the city reproached the sons of Ya'aqov from the top of the wall, and they cursed them, and the sons of Ya`aqov heard the reproaches, and they were greatly incensed, and their anger burned within them.
And the sons of Ya`aqov were provoked at them, and they all rose and sprang over the rampart with the force of their strength, and through their might passed the forty cubits' breadth of the rampart.
And when they had passed the rampart they stood under the wall of the city, and they found all the gates of the city enclosed with iron doors.
And the sons of Ya`aqov came near to break open the doors of the gates of the city, and the inhabitants did not let them, for from the top of the wall they were casting stones and arrows upon them.
And the number of the people that were upon the wall was about four hundred men, and when the sons of Ya`aqov saw that the men of the city would not let them open the gates of the city, they sprang and ascended the top of the wall, and Yahudah went up first to the east part of the city.
And Gad and Asher went up after him to the west corner of the city, and Shim`on and Leviy to the north, and Dan and Re'uven to the south.
And the men who were on the top of the wall, the inhabitants of the city, seeing that the sons of Ya`aqov were coming up to them, they all fled from the wall, descended into the city, and concealed themselves in the midst of the city.
And Yisshakar and Naphtaliy that remained under the wall approached and broke the gates of the city, and kindled a fire at the gates of the city, that the iron melted, and all the sons of Ya`aqov came into the city, they and all their men, and they fought with the inhabitants of the city of Sarton, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and no man stood up before them.
And about two hundred men fled from the city, and they all went and hid themselves in a certain tower in the city, and Yahudah pursued them to the tower and he broke down the tower, which fell upon the men, and they all died.
And the sons of Ya`aqov went up the road of the roof of that tower, and they saw, and behold there was another strong and high tower at a distance in the city, and the top of it reached to heaven, and the sons of Ya`aqov hastened and descended, and went with all their men to that tower, and found it filled with about three hundred men, women and little ones.
And the sons of Ya`aqov smote a great smiting amongst those men in the tower and they ran away and fled from them.
And Shim`on and Leviy pursued them, when twelve mighty and valiant men came out to them from the place where they had concealed themselves.
And those twelve men maintained a strong battle against Shim`on and Leviy, and Shim`on and Leviy could not prevail over them, and those valiant men broke the shields of Shim`on and Leviy, and one of them struck at Leviy's head with his sword, when Leviy hastily placed his hand to his head, for he was afraid of the sword, and the sword struck Leviy's hand, and it wanted but little to the hand of Leviy being cut off.
And Leviy seized the sword of the valiant man in his hand, and took it forcibly from the man, and with it he struck at the head of the powerful man, and he severed his head.
And eleven men approached to fight with Leviy, for they saw that one of them was killed, and the sons of Ya`aqov fought, but the sons of Ya`aqov could not prevail over them, for those men were very powerful.
And the sons of Ya`aqov seeing that they could not prevail over them, Shim`on gave a loud and tremendous shriek, and the eleven powerful men were stunned at the voice of Shim`on's shrieking.
And Yahudah at a distance knew the voice of Shim`on's shouting, and Naphtaliy and Yahudah ran with their shields to Shim`on and Leviy, and found them fighting with those powerful men, unable to prevail over them as their shields were broken.
And Naphtaliy saw that the shields of Shim`on and Leviy were broken, and he took two shields from his servants and brought them to Shim`on and Leviy.
And Shim`on, Leviy and Yahudah on that day fought all three against the eleven mighty men until the time of sunset, but they could not prevail over them.
And this was told unto Ya`aqov, and he was sorely grieved, and he prayed unto Yahuah, and he and Naphtaliy his son went against these mighty men.
And Ya`aqov approached and drew his bow, and came nigh unto the mighty men, and slew three of their men with the bow, and the remaining eight turned back, and behold, the war waged against them in the front and rear, and they were greatly afraid of their lives, and could not stand before the sons of Ya`aqov, and they fled from before them.
And in their flight they met Dan and Asher coming toward them, and they suddenly fell upon them, and fought with them, and slew two of them, and Yahudah and his brothers pursued them, and smote the remainder of them, and slew them.
And all the sons of Ya`aqov returned and walked about the city, searching if they could find any men, and they found about twenty young men in a cave in the city, and Gad and Asher smote them all, and Dan and Naphtaliy lighted upon the rest of the men who had fled and escaped from the second tower, and they smote them all.
And the sons of Ya`aqov smote all the inhabitants of the city of Sarton, but the women and little ones they left in the city and did not slay them.
And all the inhabitants of the city of Sarton were powerful men, one of them would pursue a thousand, and two of them would not flee from ten thousand of the rest of men.
And the sons of Ya`aqov slew all the inhabitants of the city of Sarton with the edge of the sword, that no man stood up against them, and they left the women in the city.
And the sons of Ya`aqov took all the spoil of the city, and captured what they desired, and they took flocks and herds and property from the city, and the sons of Ya`aqov did unto Sarton and its inhabitants as they had done to Chazar and its inhabitants, and they turned and went away.
