And he smote all persons that dwelled there, he left not any relics therein, but he wasted all things till to death; also he destroyed that city by burning.
and when thy Lord God hath betaken them to thee, thou shalt smite them unto death, thou shalt not make with them a bond of peace, neither thou shalt have mercy upon them,
And so Joshua smote all the land of the hills [or all the mountain land], and of the south, and of the field, and Ashdod, with their kings; he left not therein any relics, but he killed all thing that might breath, as the Lord God of Israel commanded to him;
and they killed all things that were therein, from man unto woman, from a young child unto an eld [or old] man; also they killed by sharp-ness of sword, oxen, sheep, and asses.
And the men of Israel burnt the city, and all things that were found therein, except [the] gold, and silver, and brazen vessels, and iron, which they hallowed into the treasury of the Lord.
