¹⁶ the king of Makkedah, one; the king of Bethel, one;

¹⁷ And there was not a man left in Ai or Beth-el, that went not out after Israel: and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.

²⁸ And Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof: he utterly destroyed them and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done unto the king of Jericho.

²² And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el; and Jehovah was with them.

⁸ And he removed from thence unto the mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Beth-el on the west, and Ai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto Jehovah, and called upon the name of Jehovah.

¹⁹ And he called the name of that place Beth-el. But the name of the city was Luz at the first.
