8 And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
9 And Adorayim and Lachish, and ‘Azekah,
10 And Zor’ah, and Ayalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
11 And he strengthened the strong-holds, and put commanders in them, and stores of food, and oil and wine;
12 And in each and every city he placed shields and spears, and made them exceedingly strong: and thus remained with him Judah and Benjamin.
