However,Israeldid not burnanycitiesthat stoodon their mounds,exceptHazoralone,[which] Joshuaburned.
"Thussaysthe LORD,'Behold,I will restorethe fortunesof the tentsof JacobAnd havecompassionon his dwellingplaces;And the citywill be rebuilton its ruin,And the palacewill standon its rightfulplace.
Joshuacapturedallthe citiesof thesekings,and alltheir kings,and he struckthem with the edgeof the sword,[and] utterlydestroyedthem; justas Mosesthe servantof the LORDhad commanded.
Allthe spoilof thesecitiesand the cattle,the sonsof Israeltookas their plunder;but they struckeverymanwith the edgeof the sword,untilthey had destroyedthem. They leftnoonewhobreathed.
I gaveyou a landon whichyou had not labored,and citieswhichyou had not built,and you have livedin them; you are eatingof vineyardsand olivegroveswhichyou did not plant.'
