10:28 Yehoshua attacks more Amorites

Promised land

28Then Yehoshua captured Makkedah that same day. They killed the king and everyone else in the city, leaving no survivors, and Yehoshua did the same to the king of Makkedah as he’d done to the king of Yericho.[fn]

29Then Yehoshua and all Yisrael went southwest from Makkedah to Libnah and fought against it. 30Yahweh also allowed Yisrael to conquer it and its king, and Yehoshua again killed everyone in the city, leaving no survivors, and he did the same to the king of Libnah as he’d done to the king of Yericho.

31Then Yehoshua and all Yisrael went south from Libnah to Lakish, where they took a position against the city and fought against it. 32On the second day of the battle, Yahweh helped Yisrael defeat Lakish, and they captured it and killed everyone in the city like they had done to Libnah. 33King Horam of Gezer arrived to help Lakish, but Yehoshua defeated him and his men, leaving no survivors.

34Then Yehoshua and the Israelis went west from Lakish to Eglon, where they took a position against the city and fought against it. 35That day they captured it and killed everyone in the city like they had done to Lakish.

36Then Yehoshua and the Israelis went west from Eglon up into the hills to Hebron, and fought against it. 37They captured it and killed the king and everyone in all their towns, leaving no survivors the same as Eglon.

38Then Yehoshua and the Israelis went to the city of Debir and fought against it. 39They captured the city and its king and all their towns, killing everyone and leaving no survivors. They treated Debir and its king just like they had to Libnah and Hebron and their kings.

40So Yehoshua attacked and conquered the entire region—the hill country and the Negev, the lowlands and the slopes, and all their kings. He didn’t leave any survivors but destroyed everything living, just as Yisrael’s god Yahweh had commanded. 41Yehoshua attacked and conquered them from Kadesh-Barnea and as far as Gaza, all the land of Goshen and as far as Gibeon. 42In one swoop, Yehoshua captured all those kings and their land, because Yisrael’s god Yahweh had fought for Yisrael. 43Then Yehoshua and his warriors returned to their camp at Gilgal.


10:28 We’re not actually given any details about what happened to the king of Yericho.
