Joshua 11:9 in Context — Joshua 11
7 Josué, avec tous ses gens de guerre, arriva subitement sur eux près des eaux de Mérom, et ils se précipitèrent au milieu d’eux.
8 L’Éternel les livra entre les mains d’Israël; ils les battirent et les poursuivirent jusqu’à Sidon la grande, jusqu’à Misrephoth-Maïm, et jusqu’à la vallée de Mitspa vers l’orient; ils les battirent, sans en laisser échapper aucun.
9 Josué les traita comme l’Éternel lui avait dit; il coupa les jarrets à leurs chevaux, et il brûla leurs chars au feu.
10 A son retour, et dans le même temps, Josué prit Hatsor, et frappa son roi avec l’épée: Hatsor était autrefois la principale ville de tous ces royaumes.
11 On frappa du tranchant de l’épée et l’on dévoua par interdit tous ceux qui s’y trouvaient, il ne resta rien de ce qui respirait, et l’on mit le feu à Hatsor.
