Joshua 11:14-16

Expanded Bible

¹⁴ The ·people [^Lsons; children] of Israel kept for themselves ·everything [the plunder/spoil] they found in the cities, including all the animals. But they ·killed [^Lstruck with the edge of the sword] all the people there; they left no one ·alive [^Lthat breathed]. ¹⁵ Long ago the Lord had commanded his servant Moses to do this, and then Moses had commanded Joshua to do it [Deut. 7:1–6; 20:16–18]. Joshua ·did everything [^Lleft nothing undone that] the Lord had commanded Moses.

¹⁶ So Joshua defeated all the people in the land [^Ca general statement, since not every city was taken; 17:16; Judg. 1]. He had control of the mountains and ·the area of southern Canaan [^Lall the Negev], all the areas of Goshen, the ·western foothills [lowlands; ^LShephelah], and the ·Jordan Valley [or Arabah]. He controlled the ·mountains [hill country] of Israel and ·all the hills near them [or its lowlands/^LShephelah].
