Joshua 11:4-9

4They came out with all their armies. Their troops were as numerous as the grains of sand on the seashore. They also had horses and chariots.

5All these kings camped together by the Springs of Merom in order to fight Israel.

6The Lord told Joshua, “Don’t be afraid of them because I am going to give them to Israel. About this time tomorrow they will all be dead. You must disable their horses so that they cannot be used in battle. You must burn their chariots.”

7Joshua and all his troops arrived suddenly at the Springs of Merom and attacked the Canaanite armies.

8The Lord handed them over to Israel, and the Israelites defeated them. The Israelites chased them as far as Great Sidon, Misrephoth Maim, and the valley of Mizpah in the east. There were no survivors.

9Joshua disabled their horses and burned their chariots, as the Lord had told him.
