Joshua 10:18 Context
16But these fiue kings fled, and hid themselues in a caue at Makkedah. 17And it was told Ioshua, saying, The fiue kings are found hid in a caue at Makkedah. 18And Ioshua said, Roule great stones vpon the mouth of the caue, and set men by it, for to keepe them. 19And stay you not, but pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them, suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the Lord your God hath deliuered them into your hand. 20And it came to passe when Ioshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them, entred into fenced cities.
