Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + benzoate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + benzoyl-CoA. Also acts on 2-, 3- and 4-fluorobenzoate, but only very slowly on the corresponding chlorobenzoates. Catalysis of the reaction: substrate + ATP + CoASH = AMP + diphosphate + substrate-CoA. Catalysis of the ligation of an acid and a thiol via a carbon-sulfur bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate. Catalysis of the ligation of two substances via a carbon-sulfur bond with concomitant breakage of a diphosphate linkage, usually in a nucleoside triphosphate.
