Joshua 10:31-34

10:31 Joshua and all Israel marched from Libnah to Lachish. He deployed his troops ²  and fought against it. 10:32 The Lord handed Lachish over to Israel and they ³  captured it on the second day. They put the sword to all who lived there, just as they had done to Libnah. 10:33 Then King Horam of Gezer came up to help Lachish, but Joshua struck down him and his army ⁴  until no survivors remained.

10:34 Joshua and all Israel marched from Lachish to Eglon. They deployed troops ⁵  and fought against it.

[10:29]  ¹ tn Heb “Libnah.” Repetition of the proper name here would be redundant according to English style, so the pronoun (“it”) has been employed in the translation.

[10:31]  ² tn Heb “encamped against it.”

[10:32]  ³ tn Heb “he”; the implied subject may be Israel, or Joshua (as the commanding general of the army).

[10:33]  ⁴ tn Heb “people.”

[10:34]  ⁵ tn Heb “they encamped against it.”
