Joshua 10:19-21
Evangelical Heritage Version
19 But you—do not stand still. Chase your enemies and attack them from the rear.[a] Do not give them a chance to get to their cities, because the Lord your God has given them into your hand.”
20 When Joshua and the people of Israel had inflicted a devastating blow upon them, to the point that they were almost wiped out (though a small group of survivors escaped into the fortified cities), 21 then all the people returned safely to the camp of Joshua at Makkedah. No one dared to speak a word against[b] the people of Israel—against any one of them!
