32 Adonai delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, so he captured it on the second day, and struck it and every single soul in it with the edge of the sword, just as he had done to Libnah.
33 Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish, but Joshua defeated him and his people until he had left him no survivors.
34 Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Lachish to Eglon, camped against it and fought against it.
35 They captured it on that day and struck it and every single soul in it with the edge of the sword, putting them under the ban that day, just as he had done to Lachish.
36 Then Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron, and they fought against it.
37 They captured it and struck it, its king, all its towns, and every single soul that was in it with the edge of the sword, leaving no survivors, just as he had done to Eglon, putting it and every single soul in it under the ban.
38 Then Joshua and all Israel with him turned back to Debir and fought against it.
