And it happened, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai and had utterly destroyed it (as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king) and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them,

And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek. And, they fought against him, and they killed the Canaanites and the Perizzites.

And Adoni-bezek fled. And they ran after him and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.

And Adoni-bezek said, Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off have gathered under my table. As I have done, so God has requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
