The five kings brought out of the cave, put to death and hanged on five trees

굴에서 끌어낸 다섯 왕을 쳐 죽여 다섯 나무에 매어 단 일

Joshua 10:22–27: then Joshua says, “Open the cave entrance, and bring those five kings out of the cave to me.” They do so, and bring those five kings out of the cave to him: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon. When they bring those kings out to Joshua, Joshua calls for all the men of Israel, and says to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, “Come near. Put your feet on the necks of these kings.” They come near, and put their feet on their necks. Joshua says to them, “Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed. Be strong and courageous, for the LORD will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight.” Afterward Joshua strikes the kings, puts them to death, and hangs them on five trees; they hang on the trees until the evening. At the time of the going down of the sun, Joshua commands, and they take them down off the trees, and throw them into the cave in which they had hidden themselves, and lay great stones on the mouth of the cave, which remain to this very day.
