Joshua 10:26-28
New American Standard Bible
26 So afterward Joshua struck them and put them to death, and he (A)hanged them on five [a]trees; and they were hung on the [b]trees until evening. 27 Then it came about at [c]sunset that Joshua gave the command, and (B)they took them down from the [d]trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves, and put large stones over the mouth of the cave, to this very day.
28 Now Joshua captured Makkedah on that day, and struck it and its king with the edge of the sword; (C)he [e]utterly destroyed [f]it and every [g]person who was in it. He left no survivor. So he did to the king of Makkedah (D)just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
