Five Amorite Kings Executed
16
These five kings fled and hid themselves in the cave at 1Makkedah.
17
And it was told to Joshua, "The five kings have been found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah."
18
And Joshua said, "Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and set men by it to guard them,
19
but do not stay there yourselves. Pursue your enemies; 2attack their rear guard. Do not let them enter their cities, for the LORD your God has given them into your hand."
20
When Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished striking them with a great blow 3until they were wiped out, and when the remnant that remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
21
then all the people returned safe to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah. 4Not a man moved his tongue against any of the people of Israel.
22
Then Joshua said, "Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me from the cave."
23
And they did so, and brought those five kings out to him from the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24
And when they brought those kings out to Joshua, Joshua summoned all the men of Israel and said to the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, "Come near; put your feet on the necks of these kings." Then they came near and put their feet on their necks.
25
And Joshua said to them, 5"Do not be afraid or dismayed; be strong and courageous. 6For thus the LORD will do to all your enemies against whom you fight."
26
And afterward Joshua struck them and put them to death, and he hanged them on five trees. And 7they hung on the trees until evening.
27
But at the time of the going down of the sun, Joshua commanded, and 8they took them down from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves, and they set large stones against the mouth of the cave, which remain to this very day.
