set_v forth_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o all_o man_n peradventure_o also_o the_o purpose_n of_o god_n be_v to_o drive_v the_o rest_n of_o nation_n through_o desperation_n into_o rage_n and_o madness_n that_o they_o may_v procure_v to_o themselves_o more_o speedy_a destruction_n while_o they_o whet_v the_o israelite_n to_o wrath_n by_o their_o stubborness_n the_o same_o shameful_a end_n be_v give_v

yet_o it_o be_v like_a they_o attempt_v some_o hostility_n but_o the_o chief_a cause_n be_v that_o god_n have_v give_v one_o sentence_n upon_o they_o all_o i_o have_v show_v before_o wherefore_o

all_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o world_n vanish_v away_o before_o he_o yea_o that_o by_o his_o judgement_n the_o glory_n of_o they_o which_o seem_v to_o excel_v be_v turn_v into_o extreme_a shame_n 29_o then_o joshue_n go_v from_o mak-kedah_a and_o all_o israel_n with_o he_o unto_o libnah_n and_o fight_v against_o libnah_n 30_o and_o the_o lord_n give_v it_o also_o and_o the_o king_n thereof_o into_o

and_o assault_v it_o 32_o and_o the_o lord_n give_v lachish_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o israel_n which_o take_v it_o the_o second_o day_n and_o smite_v it_o with_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n and_o all_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v therein_o according_a to_o all_o as_o he_o have_v do_v to_o libnah_n 33_o then_o horam_n king_n of_o gezer_n come_v up_o to_o help_n lachish_n but_o joshue_n smite_v

35_o and_o they_o take_v it_o the_o same_o day_n and_o smite_v it_o with_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n and_o all_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v therein_o he_o utter_o destroy_v the_o same_o day_n according_a to_o all_o that_o he_o have_v do_v to_o lachish_n 36_o then_o joshue_n go_v up_o from_o eglon_n and_o all_o israel_n with_o he_o unto_o hebron_n and_o they_o fight_v against_o it_o 37_o and_o when_o they_o have_v take_v it_o they_o smite_v it_o with_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n and_o the_o king_n thereof_o and_o all_o the_o city_n thereof_o and_o all_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v

joshue_v return_v and_o all_o israel_n with_o he_o to_o debir_n and_o fight_v against_o it_o 39_o and_o when_o he_o have_v take_v it_o and_o the_o king_n thereof_o &_o all_o the_o city_n thereof_o they_o smite_v they_o with_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o sword_n &_o utter_o destroy_v all_o the_o soul_n that_o be_v therein_o he_o let_v none_o remain_v as_o he_o do_v to_o hebron_n so_o he_o do_v to_o

that_o fear_n be_v cease_v they_o may_v be_v profitable_a for_o their_o defence_n sure_o the_o garrison_n be_v increase_v by_o their_o number_n therefore_o whereas_o joshua_n in_o a_o short_a time_n

to_o break_v they_o down_o the_o siege_n of_o etterie_n one_o may_v have_v be_v some_o stay_n and_o tediousness_n therefore_o when_o he_o take_v one_o city_n the_o next_o day_n after_o he_o assault_v
