Judges 1:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ Adoni-Bezek said, “I cut off the thumbs and big toes of 70 kings. I made them pick up scraps under my table. Now God has paid me back for what I did to them.” The men of Judah brought Adoni-Bezek to Jerusalem. That’s where he died.

⁸ The men of Judah attacked Jerusalem and captured it. They set the city on fire. They killed its people with their swords.

⁹ After that, the men of Judah went down to fight against some Canaanites. Those Canaanites were living in the central hill country. They also fought against those living in the Negev Desert and the western hills.
