9. Joshua did to them as Adonai had instructed him—he hamstrung their horses and burnt their chariots with fire.
10. At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and struck its king with the sword, because Hazor had formerly been the head of all those kingdoms.
11. They struck down every single soul in it with the edge of the sword, putting them to the ban. There was none left that breathed after he burned Hazor with fire.
12. Thus Joshua captured all the cities of those kings and all their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, putting them to the ban, just as Moses the servant of Adonai had commanded.
13. But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel did not burn any of them, except Hazor alone, which Joshua did burn.
