then you shall dispossess all the ones living in the land from before you, and destroy all their engraved images; yea, you shall destroy all their molten images, and demolish all their high places.
But destroying you shall destroy them, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, as Jehovah your God has commanded you;
her former husband who sent her away is not to take her again to be his wife, after she is defiled. For it is a disgusting thing before Jehovah, and you shall not cause the land to sin which Jehovah your God is giving to you as an inheritance.
And Jehovah was angry with me because of your words, and swore that I would not be passing over the Jordan, and I would not be going into the good land which Jehovah your God is giving to you as an inheritance.
And you shall consume all the peoples whom Jehovah your God is giving to you. And your eye shall have no pity on them; and you shall not serve their gods; for it shall be a snare to you.
And it happened, when Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished them with a very great blow, until they were consumed, and the survivors of them who escaped went into the fortified cities,
And that day Joshua captured Makkedah. And he struck it by the mouth of the sword, and he destroyed its king, them, and every person in it. He did not leave a survivor. And he did to the king of Makkedah as he did to the king of Jericho.
And Joshua struck all the land: the heights and the Negeb, and the Lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings; he did not leave a survivor, but he destroyed all that breathed, as Jehovah the God of Israel had commanded.
And the sons of Israel seized for themselves all the plunder of these places of defense, and the livestock. But they struck every human being by the mouth of the sword, until they had destroyed them; they did not leave anyone breathing.
And they burned the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they gave the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze, and of iron, to the treasury of the house of Jehovah.
And it shall be when you have taken the city, you shall burn the city with fire. You shall do according to the Word of Jehovah. See, I have commanded you.
And they answered Joshua and said, Because it was certainly told to your servants what Jehovah your God commanded His servant Moses, to give you all the land, and to destroy all the ones living in the land before you; and we were greatly afraid for ourselves, because of you. And we did this thing.
And on that day Joshua made them woodcutters, and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of Jehovah at the place which He should choose, to this day.
Now go, and you strike Amalek and destroy all that is to him, and you shall have no pity on him, but cause to die all, from man to woman, from child to suckling, from ox to sheep, from camel to ass.
