Joshua 11:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ Joshua was fighting against those kings for a long time. ¹⁹ None of those kingdoms agreed not to fight against the Israelites, except the Hivites who lived in Gibeon. The Israelites fought battles against all the other kingdoms and they won. ²⁰ The Lord had caused the minds of those people to become hard. So they all decided to fight against the Israelites. The Lord wanted the Israelites to destroy those people completely, as he had commanded Moses.
