Joshua 8:27 in Context — Joshua 8

25 Y el número de los que cayeron aquel día, hombres y mujeres, fué doce mil, todos los de Hai.

26 Y Josué no retrajo su mano que había extendido con la lanza, hasta que hubo destruído á todos los moradores de Hai.

27 Empero los Israelitas tomaron para sí las bestias y los despojos de la ciudad, conforme á la palabra de Jehová que él había mandado á Josué.

28 Y Josué quemó á Hai y redújola á un montón perpetuo, asolado hasta hoy.

29 Mas al rey de Hai colgó de un madero hasta la tarde: y como el sol se puso, mandó Josué que quitasen del madero su cuerpo, y lo echasen á la puerta de la ciudad: y levantaron sobre él un gran montón de piedras, hasta hoy.
