When Jabin king of Hazor heard this news, he sent a message to:

Jobab king of Madon,
the kings of Shimron and Achshaph,

At that time Joshua turned back, captured Hazor, and struck down its king with the sword, because Hazor had formerly been the leader of all these kingdoms.

They struck down everyone in it with the sword, completely destroying them; he left no one alive. Then he burned down Hazor.

However, Israel did not burn any of the cities that stood on their mounds except Hazor, which Joshua burned.
