Compare all
25 Then Joshua said to1 them, a“Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage, for bthus the Lord will do to all your enemies against whom you fight.”  
26 And afterward Joshua struck1 them and killed them, and hanged them on five trees; and they awere hanging on the trees until evening.  
27 So it was at the time of the going down of the sun that Joshua commanded, and they atook them down from the trees, cast them into the cave where they had been hidden, and laid large stones against the cave’s mouth, which remain until this very day.  

Conquest of the Southland

28 On that day Joshua took Makkedah, and struck it and its king with the edge of the sword. He utterly adestroyed them—all the people who were in it. He let none remain. He also did to the king of Makkedah bas he had done to the king of Jericho.  
29 Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to aLibnah; and they fought against Libnah.  
30 And the Lord also delivered it and its king into the hand of Israel; he struck it and all the people who were in it with the edge of the sword. He let none remain in it, but did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.

Joshua 10:27

Took them down - That neither wild beasts could come to devour them, nor any of their people to give them honourable burial. Thus that which they thought would have been their shelter, was made their prison first, and then their grave. So shall we surely be disappointed, in whatever we flee to from God.
