וַיָּ֨שָׁב יְהוֹשֻׁ֜עַ בָּעֵ֤ת הַהִיא֙ וַיִּלְכֹּ֣ד אֶת־חָצ֔וֹר וְאֶת־מַלְכָּ֖הּ הִכָּ֣ה בֶחָ֑רֶב כִּֽי־חָצ֣וֹר לְפָנִ֔ים הִ֕יא רֹ֖אשׁ כָּל־הַמַּמְלָכ֥וֹת הָאֵֽלֶּה׃
Pada waktu itu Yosua kembali, lalu merebut Hazor, dan rajanya dibunuhnya dengan pedang, sebab dahulu Hazor adalah kepala semua kerajaan itu.

Before Joshua captured Chatzor, as its written in Joshua 11:1, he smote it with a sword, but not its king. After he was captured (he saved himself?) and the king of Charoshet goyim, it was a place where all froms of iron work was done.
Rashi
וברצונם עקרו שור AND IN THEIR SELFWILL THEY LAMED AN OX — they desired to exterminate Joseph who is called שור, as it is said, (Deuteronomy 33:17) “His firstling bullock (שורו) (Joseph), majesty is his”. עקרו means in old French essarter. It has the same meaning as in (Joshua 11:6) “Thou shalt hamstring (תעקר) their horses”.
