Bible Verses About Piram

So Adoni-Tzedek king of Yerushalayim sent this message to Hoham king of Hevron, Pir'am king of Yarmut, Yafia king of Lakhish and D'vir king of 'Eglon:

But those five kings fled and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah,

and it was reported to Y'hoshua that the five kings had been found hiding in the cave at Makkedah.

Y'hoshua said, "Roll big stones to the mouth of the cave, and put men there to guard them.

After they had brought the five kings to Y'hoshua, he summoned all the men of Isra'el and said to the commanders of the soldiers who had gone with him, "Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings." They came and put their feet on their necks.

Y'hoshua said to them, "Don't be afraid or confused, but be strong and bold, because this is what ADONAI will do to all your enemies that you fight against."

With that, Y'hoshua struck them and put them to death, hanging them on five trees, where they remained hanging until evening.

At sunset Y'hoshua gave an order, and they lowered them from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves, then laid big stones at the mouth of the cave; and there they remain to this day.
