Joshua 10:10
Compare all
8 And the Lord said to Joshua, a“Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hand; bnot a man of them shall cstand before you.”  
9 Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
10 So the Lord arouted them before Israel, killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, chased them along the road that goes bto Beth Horon, and struck them down as far as cAzekah and Makkedah.  
11 And it happened, as they fled before Israel and were on the descent of Beth Horon, athat the Lord cast down large hailstones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died. There were more who died from the hailstones than the children of Israel killed with the sword.  
12 Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel:
a“Sun, stand still over Gibeon;
And Moon, in the Valley of bAijalon.” 
13 So the sun stood still,
And the moon stopped,
Till the people had revenge
Upon their enemies. aIs this not written in the Book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.  
14 And there has been ano day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded the voice of a man; for bthe Lord fought for Israel.  
15 aThen Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.
