14
There was no day like that before it or after it, that Yahweh listened to the voice of a man: for Yahweh fought for Israel.
15
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
16
These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17
It was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
18
Joshua said, Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them:
19
but don't stay; pursue after your enemies, and strike the hindmost of them; don't allow them to enter into their cities: for Yahweh your God has delivered them into your hand.
20
It happened, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of killing them with a very great slaughter, until they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
21
that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
22
Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth those five kings to me out of the cave.
23
They did so, and brought forth those five kings to him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
24
It happened, when they brought forth those kings to Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings. They came near, and put their feet on the necks of them.
