The Lord heard the Israelites’ request and gave them victory over the Canaanites. The Israelites completely destroyed them and their towns, and the place has been called Hormah ever since.
Lord, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely you will hear their cries and comfort them.
He will listen to the prayers of the destitute. He will not reject their pleas.
I love the Lord because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy.
When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them.
Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in those hills came down and attacked them and chased them back as far as Hormah.
But the Amorites who lived there came out against you like a swarm of bees. They chased and battered you all the way from Seir to Hormah.
In those towns that the Lord your God is giving you as a special possession, destroy every living thing.

Then Judah joined with Simeon to fight against the Canaanites living in Zephath, and they completely destroyed the town. So the town was named Hormah.
