Joshua 10:21-30

²¹And all the people returned safe to Joshua to Makeda; and no one of the children of Israel murmured with his tongue.

²²And Joshua said, Open the cave, and bring out these five kings out of the cave.

²³And they brought out the five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam.

²⁴And when they brought them out to Joshua, then Joshua called together all Israel, and the chiefs of the army that went with him, saying to them, Come forward and set your feet on their necks; and they came and set their feet on their necks.

²⁵And Joshua said to them, Do not fear them, neither be cowardly; be courageous and strong, for thus the Lord will do to all your enemies, against whom you° fight.

²⁶And Joshua killed them, and hanged them on five trees; and they hung upon the trees until the evening.

²⁷And it came to pass toward the setting of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave into which they had fled for refuge, and rolled stones to the cave, which remain till this day.

²⁸And they took Makeda on that day, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and they utterly destroyed every living thing that was in it; and there was none left in it that was preserved and had escaped; and they did to the king of Makeda, as they did to the king of Jericho.

²⁹And Joshua and all Israel with him departed out of Makeda to Lebna, and besieged Lebna.

³⁰And the Lord delivered it into the hands of Israel: and they took it, and its king, and killed the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and every thing breathing in it; and there was not left in it any that survived and escaped; and they did to its king, as they did to the king of Jericho.
