Joshua 11:20-22

International Children’s Bible

²⁰ The Lord made those people stubborn so they would fight against Israel. This way he could completely destroy them without mercy. This is what the Lord had commanded Moses to do.

²¹ Now Joshua fought the Anakites who lived in the mountains of Hebron, Debir, Anab, Judah and Israel. And he completely destroyed them and their towns. ²² There were no Anakites left living in the land of the Israelites. Only a few Anakites were left in Gaza, Gath and Ashdod.
