And Joshua called for them, and he spoke to them, saying, Why have ye deceived us, saying, We are very far from you; whereas ye dwell in our midst?

יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And they answered Joshua and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants how that Jehovah thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; and we feared greatly for our lives because of you, and did this thing.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And it came to pass when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Ai and had utterly destroyed it, that he had done to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them,

יְהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

Come up to me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua, to the camp at Gilgal, saying, Withdraw not thy hand from thy servants: come up to us quickly, and save us and help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country are gathered against us.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, even all the valiant men.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Jehovah said to Joshua, Fear them not; for into thy hand have I given them: not a man of them shall stand before thee.

And it came to pass when Joshua and the children of Israel had ended smiting them with a very great slaughter, until they were consumed, that the remnant which remained of them entered into fortified cities;

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

and all the people returned to the camp to Joshua, at Makkedah, in peace; none moved his tongue against the children of Israel.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֛עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua said, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me those five kings out of the cave.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And it came to pass when they had brought forth those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called to all the men of Israel, and said to the captains of the men of war who went with him, Come forward, put your feet on the necks of these kings. And they came forward and put their feet on their necks.

And afterwards Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees; and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֙עַ֙ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, him and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed; he let none remain; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.

יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ ye.ho.Shu.a' “Joshua”

And Joshua passed, and all Israel with him, from Makkedah to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
