The Continuing Conquest of Canaan

1 Now after the adeath of Joshua it came to pass that the children of Israel basked the Lord, saying, “Who shall be first to go up for us against the cCanaanites to fight against them?”  
2 And the Lord said, a“Judah shall go up. Indeed I have delivered the land into his hand.”  
3 So Judah said to aSimeon his brother, “Come up with me to my allotted territory, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and bI will likewise go with you to your allotted territory.” And Simeon went with him.  
4 Then Judah went up, and the Lord delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand; and they killed ten thousand men at aBezek.  
5 And they found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fought against him; and they defeated the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 Then Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and big toes.
7 And Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off used to gather scraps under my table; aas I have done, so God has repaid me.” Then they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.  
8 Now athe children of Judah fought against Jerusalem and took it; they struck it with the edge of the sword and set the city on fire.  
9 aAnd afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who dwelt in the mountains, in the1 South, and in the lowland.
