42 And Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time, because the Lord God of Israel ^dfought for Israel.

19 There was not a city that made peace with the people of Israel ^mexcept the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took them all in battle. 20 For it was the Lord’s doing to ⁿharden their hearts that they should come against Israel in battle, in order that they should be devoted to destruction and should receive no mercy but be destroyed, ^ojust as the Lord commanded Moses.
