So JoshuaoverwhelmedAmalekand his peoplewith the edgeof the sword.
Joshuacapturedallthesekingsand their landsat onetime,becausethe LORD,the Godof Israel,foughtfor Israel.
Joshuacapturedallthe citiesof thesekings,and alltheir kings,and he struckthem with the edgeof the sword,[and] utterlydestroyedthem; justas Mosesthe servantof the LORDhad commanded.
They capturedit and struckit and its kingand allits citiesand allthe personswho[were] in it with the edgeof the sword.He leftnosurvivor,according to allthat he had doneto Eglon.And he utterlydestroyedit and everypersonwho[was] in it.
The LORDgaveLachishinto the handsof Israel;and he capturedit on the secondday,and struckit and everypersonwho[was] in it with the edgeof the sword,according to allthat he had doneto Libnah.
Now JoshuacapturedMakkedahon that day,and struckit and its kingwith the edgeof the sword;he utterlydestroyedit and everypersonwhowas in it. He leftnosurvivor.Thus he didto the kingof Makkedahjustas he had doneto the kingof Jericho.

But Moses' handswere heavy.Then they tooka stoneand putit underhim, and he saton it; and Aaronand Hursupportedhis hands,oneon onesideand oneon the other.Thus his handswere steadyuntilthe sunset.
Then the LORDsaidto Moses,"Writethisin a bookas a memorialand reciteit to Joshua,that I will utterlyblotout the memoryof Amalekfrom underheaven."
For Joshuadid not withdrawhis handwith whichhe stretchedout the javelinuntilhe had utterlydestroyedallthe inhabitantsof Ai.
