Joshua 10:28 in Context — Joshua 10

26 Après cela, Josué les frappa et les fit mourir; il les pendit à cinq arbres, et ils restèrent pendus aux arbres jusqu’au soir.

27 Vers le coucher du soleil, Josué ordonna qu’on les descendît des arbres, on les jeta dans la caverne où ils s’étaient cachés, et l’on mit à l’entrée de la caverne de grosses pierres, qui y sont demeurées jusqu’à ce jour.

28 Josué prit Makkéda le même jour, et la frappa du tranchant de l’épée; il dévoua par interdit le roi, la ville et tous ceux qui s’y trouvaient; il n’en laissa échapper aucun, et il traita le roi de Makkéda comme il avait traité le roi de Jéricho.

29 Josué, et tout Israël avec lui, passa de Makkéda à Libna, et il attaqua Libna.

30 L’Éternel la livra aussi, avec son roi, entre les mains d’Israël, et la frappa du tranchant de l’épée, elle et tous ceux qui s’y trouvaient; il n’en laissa échapper aucun, et il traita son roi comme il avait traité le roi de Jéricho.
