4 and Judah went into battle together. The Lord gave them victory over the Canaanites and the Perizzites, and they defeated 10,000 men at Bezek.
5 They found Adonibezek there and fought against him.
6 He ran away, but they chased him, caught him, and cut off his thumbs and big toes.
7 Adonibezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off have picked up scraps under my table. God has now done to me what I did to them.” He was taken to Jerusalem, where he died.
8 The men of Judah attacked Jerusalem and captured it. They killed its people and set fire to the city.
9 After this they went on to fight the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, in the foothills, and in the dry country to the south.
10 They marched against the Canaanites living in the city of Hebron, which used to be called Kiriath Arba. There they defeated the clans of Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
