Joshua 11:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ Joshua did to them what the Lord had ordered him to do. He cut the legs of their horses. He burned up their chariots.

¹⁰ At that time Joshua turned back. He captured Hazor. He killed its king with his sword. Hazor was the most important city in all those kingdoms. ¹¹ The army of Israel killed everyone in Hazor with their swords. Its people had been set apart to the Lord to be destroyed. Israel’s army didn’t spare anyone who breathed. Then Joshua burned down the city.
