24 And when these kings were brought out to Jesus, Joshua called all Israel, and said to the captains of the soldiers who went with him, 'Come near, tread with your feet on the necks of these kings.' They came and stepped on their necks with their feet.

25 Jesus said to them, 'Do not be afraid, nor be terrified, but be strong and courageous; For thus will the Lord deal with all your enemies with whom you make war.

26 Then Jesus smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees; and they hung on the trees until evening.

27 And when the sun went down, Jesus commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and threw them into the cave in which they were hiding, and rolled large stones to the mouth of the cave, which is there even to this day.

28 And on the same day Joshua took Makeda, and smote with the sword and his king, and conjured them and all that was breathing in it: he left no one to survive. and he did to the king of Macedonia as he did to the king of Jericho.

29 And Joshua and all Israel went with him from Makeda to Libna, and fought against Libnah;

30 And the LORD delivered her also into the hands of Israel, and took her and her king, and Joshua destroyed her with the sword, and all that was breathing in her: he left no one in her to survive, and he did to her king as he did to the king of Jericho.

31 And Joshua went out of Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped by him, and fought against him.

32 And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hands of Israel, and he took her the next day, and smote her with the sword, and all that was breathing in her, as he had done to Libnah.

33 Then came to the aid of Lachish Horam, king of Gazer; but Jesus smote him and his people [with the sword] so that he left no one with him to survive.

34 And Joshua and all Israel went with him from Lachish to Eglon, and encamped by him, and fought against him.

35 And they took him that same day, and smote him with the sword, and all that was breathing in him that day he put to a curse, as he did with Lachish.

36 And Joshua and all Israel went with him from Eglon to Hebron, and fought against him;

37 And they took him, and smote him with the sword, and his king, and all his cities, and all that was breathing in him; he left no one to survive, as he did with Eglon: he conjured him and all that was breathing in him.
