Joshua 12:24

22 the king of Kedesh, one; the king of Jokneam in Carmel, one;

23 the king of Dor in Naphath-dor, one; the king of Goiim in Gilgal, one;

and the king of Tirzah, one. So there were thirty-one kings in all.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
