7 So Joshua and his whole military force surprised them at the waters of Merom and attacked them.
8 The Lord handed them over to Israel, and they struck them down, pursuing them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and to the east as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, leaving no survivors.
9 Joshua treated them as the Lord had told him; he hamstrung their horses and burned up their chariots.
10 At that time Joshua turned back, captured Hazor, and struck down its king with the sword, because Hazor had formerly been the leader of all these kingdoms.
11 They struck down everyone in it with the sword, completely destroying them; he left no one alive. Then he burned down Hazor.
12 Joshua captured all these kings and their cities and struck them down with the sword. He completely destroyed them, as Moses the Lord’s servant had commanded.
13 However, Israel did not burn any of the cities that stood on their mounds except Hazor, which Joshua burned.
