Conquest of the Southland

28 On that day Joshua took Makkedah, and struck it and its king with the edge of the sword. He utterly (A)destroyed [a]them—all the people who were in it. He let none remain. He also did to the king of Makkedah (B)as he had done to the king of Jericho.

29 Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to (C)Libnah; and they fought against Libnah. 30 And the Lord also delivered it and its king into the hand of Israel; he struck it and all the people who were in it with the edge of the sword. He let none remain in it, but did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
