33. King Horam of Gezer came up to help Lachish, but Joshua attacked him and his people until he did not have a single survivor left.
34. From Lachish, Joshua and all of Israel passed to Eglon. They camped against it and waged war against it.
35. They captured it that day and struck it with the edge of the sword. All who lived in it were destroyed that day, just as Israel had done to Lachish.
36. Then Joshua and all of Israel went up from Eglon to Hebron and waged war against it.
37. They captured it and struck its king, and all who lived in it, and its surrounding towns with the edge of the sword. No survivor was left. Just as they had done to Eglon, they destroyed it and all who lived in it.
38. Then Joshua and all of Israel turned to Debir and waged war against it.
39. They captured it, its king, and all its surrounding towns and struck them with the edge of the sword. They destroyed all who lived in them, and no survivor was left. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king.
