New Testament

Joshua 11:7-11 New International Version (NIV)

7. So Joshua and his whole army came against them suddenly at the Waters of Merom and attacked them,

8. and the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel. They defeated them and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon, to Misrephoth Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpah on the east, until no survivors were left.

9. Joshua did to them as the Lord had directed: He hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots.

10. At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword. (Hazor had been the head of all these kingdoms.)

11. Everyone in it they put to the sword. They totally destroyed them, not sparing anyone that breathed, and he burned Hazor itself.
