So Joshua struck all the land, the hill-country, and the South, and the lowland, and the slopes, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, commanded.

So Joshua said, Throw a bunch of stones over the cave, seal it up, and stand outside and guard the thing ( Joshua 10:15-18 ).
