Joshua 10:9-13

9And JoshuaH3091 cameH935 upon them suddenlyH6597; he wentH935 up from GilgalH1537 all nightH3915.

10And Jehovah discomfited them before IsraelH3478, and smote them [with] a greatH1419 slaughterH4347 at GibeonH1391; and he chased them on the wayH1870 of the ascent of Beth-horonH1032, and smote them up to AzekahH5825 and MakkedahH4719.

11And it came to pass, as they fledH5127 from before IsraelH3478, — they were at the descentH4174 of Beth-horonH1032, — that Jehovah castH7993 downH7993 greatH1419 stonesH68 from heavenH8064 upon them up to AzekahH5825, and they diedH4191. They were moreH4480 who diedH4191 with the hailstones than they whom the children of IsraelH3478 had slainH2026 with the swordH2719.

12ThenH227 spokeH1696 JoshuaH3091 to Jehovah in the dayH3117 when Jehovah gaveH5414 up the AmoritesH567 before the children of IsraelH3478, and he saidH559 in the sight of IsraelH3478, SunH8121, stand still upon GibeonH1391; And thou, moonH3394, in the valleyH6010 of Ajalon!

13And the sunH8121 stoodH5975 stillH5975, and the moonH3394 remainedH5975 where it was, until the nationH1471 had avengedH5358 themselves upon their enemiesH341. Is not this writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of Jasher? And the sunH8121 remainedH5975 standingH5975 in the midst of heavenH8064, and hasted not to goH935 down about a full dayH3117.
