And the Lord delivered it into the hands of Israel: and they took it, and its king, and slew the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and every thing breathing in it; and there was not left in it any that survived and escaped; and they did to its king, as they did to the king of Jericho.

Καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτὴν Κύριος εἰς χεῖρας Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὴν, καὶ τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐφόνευσαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ξίφους, καὶ πᾶν ἐμπνέον ἐν αὐτῇ· καὶ οὐ κατελείφθη ἐν αὐτῇ διασεσωσμένος καὶ διαπεφευγώς· καὶ ἐποίησαν τῷ βασιλεῖ αὐτῆς, ὃν τρόπον ἐποίησαν τῷ βασιλεῖ Ἱεριχώ.
