    20And it happened, when Joshua and the children of Israel finished slaying them with a very great slaughter, until they were consumed, that the rest who remained entered into fortified cities.

    21And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.

    22Then Joshua said, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out those five kings to me from the cave.

    23And 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.

    24And it happened, when they brought those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel and said to the captains of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings. And they came near and put their feet on their necks.

    25Then Joshua said to them, Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage, for the LORD will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight.

    26And afterward Joshua struck them and killed them, and hanged them on five trees; and they were hanging on the trees until evening.

    27So it was at the time of the going down of the sun that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, cast them into the cave where they had hidden, and laid large stones against the mouth of the cave, which remain to this very day.

    28On that day Joshua took Makkedah and struck it with the edge of the sword, he utterly destroyed its king, and all the people who were in it; he left none remaining. He did to the king of Makkedah as he did to the king of Jericho.
