And that day Joshua took Makkedah, 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 let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did unto the king of Jericho.

Verse 28 is found in chapter 10 of Joshua. The campaign continues against Makkedah and Libnah. The cities are defeated according to the established narrative pattern: attack, surrender of the city, and destruction of its inhabitants. The repetition communicates the progressive expansion of the southern conquest. Rather than describing every battle in strategic detail, the narrator focuses on the theological formula that the Lord gave the cities into Israel’s hands.

Desselben Tages aber gewann Josua auch Makkeda und schlug es mit der Schärfe des Schwerts, dazu seinen König, und verbannte es und alle Seelen, die darin waren, und ließ niemand übrigbleiben und tat dem König zu Makkeda, wie er dem König zu Jericho getan hatte.
En aquel mismo día tomó Josué a Maceda, y la puso a cuchillo, y mató a su rey; a ellos y a todo lo que en ella tenía vida, sin quedar nada: mas al rey de Maceda hizo como había hecho al rey de Jericó.
Aquel día Josué tomó Maceda y la hirió a filo de espada, y también a su rey. Los consagró por completo a la destrucción, a ellos y a toda persona que había en ella; no dejó sobreviviente. Hizo al rey de Maceda como había hecho al rey de Jericó.
Josué prit Makkéda le même jour, et la frappa du tranchant de l'épée; il dévoua par interdit le roi, la ville et tous ceux qui s'y trouvaient; il n'en laissa échapper aucun, et il traita le roi de Makkéda comme il avait traité le roi de Jéricho.
Giosuè prese ancora Maccheda in quel dì, e la percosse, mettendola a fil di spada; e distrusse nel modo dell’interdetto il re di essa insieme con gli abitanti, e ogni anima ch’era dentro; egli non ne lasciò alcuno in vita; e fece al re di Maccheda, come avea fatto al re di Gerico.
E naquele mesmo dia tomou Josué a Maquedá, e feriu-a a fio de espada, bem como ao seu rei; totalmente a destruiu com todos que nela havia, sem nada deixar; e fez ao rei de Maquedá como fizera ao rei de Jericó.
當日, 約書亞 奪了 瑪基大 ,用刀擊殺城中的人和王,把城中所有人完全滅盡,沒有留下一個倖存者。他處置 瑪基大 王,像從前處置 耶利哥 王一樣。
