Joshua 10:25-27

Christian Standard Bible

²⁵ Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid or discouraged. Be strong and courageous,^(A) for the Lord will do this to all the enemies you fight.”

²⁶ After this, Joshua struck them down and executed them. He hung^[a] their bodies on five trees^[b] and they were there until evening.^{(B) 27} At sunset Joshua commanded that they be taken down from the trees^(C) and thrown into the cave where they had hidden. Then large stones were placed against the mouth of the cave, and the stones are still there today.^(D)
