And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the country.

And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did unto the king of Jericho.
