Joshua 10:1-14
1Now it came to pass, when AdonizedekH139 kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389 had heardH8085 howH3588 JoshuaH3091 had takenH3920 AiH5857, and had utterly destroyedH2763 it; as he had doneH6213 to JerichoH3405 and its kingH4428, so he had doneH6213 to AiH5857 and its kingH4428; and how the inhabitantsH3427 of GibeonH1391 had made peaceH7999 with IsraelH3478, and were amongH7130 them; 2That they fearedH3372 greatlyH3966, because GibeonH1391 was a greatH1419 cityH5892, as oneH259 of the royalH4467 citiesH5892, and because it was greaterH1419 than AiH5857, and all its menH582 were mightyH1368.1 3Therefore AdonizedekH139 kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389 sentH7971 to HohamH1944 kingH4428 of HebronH2275, and to PiramH6502 kingH4428 of JarmuthH3412, and to JaphiaH3309 kingH4428 of LachishH3923, and to DebirH1688 kingH4428 of EglonH5700, sayingH559, 4Come upH5927 to me, and helpH5826 me, that we may smiteH5221 GibeonH1391: for it hath made peaceH7999 with JoshuaH3091 and with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 5Therefore the fiveH2568 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, the kingH4428 of JerusalemH3389, the kingH4428 of HebronH2275, the kingH4428 of JarmuthH3412, the kingH4428 of LachishH3923, the kingH4428 of EglonH5700, gathered themselves togetherH622, and went upH5927, they and all their hostsH4264, and encampedH2583 before GibeonH1391, and made warH3898 against it. 6And the menH582 of GibeonH1391 sentH7971 to JoshuaH3091 to the campH4264 at GilgalH1537, sayingH559, Do not forsakeH7503H3027 thy servantsH5650; come upH5927 to us quicklyH4120, and saveH3467 us, and helpH5826 us: for all the kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567 that dwellH3427 in the mountainsH2022 are gathered togetherH6908 against us.
7So JoshuaH3091 went upH5927 from GilgalH1537, he, and all the peopleH5971 of warH4421 with him, and all the mightyH1368 men of valourH2428. 8And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to JoshuaH3091, FearH3372 them not: for I have deliveredH5414 them into thy handH3027; there shall not a manH376 of them standH5975 beforeH6440 thee. 9JoshuaH3091 therefore cameH935 to them suddenlyH6597, and went upH5927 from GilgalH1537 all nightH3915. 10And the LORDH3068 destroyedH2000 them beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, and slewH5221 them with a greatH1419 slaughterH4347 at GibeonH1391, and chasedH7291 them along the wayH1870 that goeth upH4608 to BethhoronH1032, and smoteH5221 them to AzekahH5825, and to MakkedahH4719. 11And it came to pass, as they fledH5127 from beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, and were in the descentH4174 to BethhoronH1032, that the LORDH3068 cast downH7993 greatH1419 stonesH68 from heavenH8064 upon them to AzekahH5825, and they diedH4191: they were moreH7227 who diedH4191 with hailstonesH1259H68 than they whomH834 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 slewH2026 with the swordH2719. 12Then spokeH1696 JoshuaH3091 to the LORDH3068 in the dayH3117 when the LORDH3068 delivered upH5414 the AmoritesH567 beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and he saidH559 in the sightH5869 of IsraelH3478, SunH8121, stand thou stillH1826 upon GibeonH1391; and thou, MoonH3394, in the valleyH6010 of AjalonH357.2 13And the sunH8121 stood stillH1826, and the moonH3394 stayedH5975, until the peopleH1471 had avengedH5358 themselves upon their enemiesH341. Is not thisH1931 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of JasherH3477? So the sunH8121 stood stillH5975 in the midstH2677 of heavenH8064, and hastedH213 not to go downH935 about a wholeH8549 dayH3117.3 14And there was no dayH3117 like that beforeH6440 it or afterH310 it, that the LORDH3068 hearkenedH8085 to the voiceH6963 of a manH376: for the LORDH3068 foughtH3898 for IsraelH3478.
