Note 1 topic: writing-poetry
לְהַכּוֹתָ֛ם מַכָּ֥ה גְדוֹלָֽה מְאֹ֖ד
to,inflicting,them slaughter great very
See how you translated the similar expression in 10:10. Alternate translation: “striking them very severely”

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of fortification, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: “their fortified cities”
10:1-43 Gibeon and its neighboring cities occupied a plateau north of Jerusalem (see study note on 7:2). With Gibeon now allied to Israel, control of the plateau and of the central hill country in the vicinity of Gibeon belonged to Israel. Throughout history, whoever has controlled the plateau has, in general, also controlled the hill country. The Canaanite kings had to conquer Gibeon or their cause was lost.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
