7 And Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off used to gather scraps under my table; (A)as I have done, so God has repaid me.” Then they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
8 Now (B)the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem and took it; they struck it with the edge of the sword and set the city on fire. 9 (C)And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who dwelt in the mountains, in the [a]South, and in the lowland.
