Joshua 10:6-15

New King James Version

⁶And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp ^(A)at Gilgal, saying, “Do not forsake your servants; come up to us quickly, save us and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the mountains have gathered together against us.”

⁷So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he and ^(B)all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor. ⁸And the Lord said to Joshua, ^(C)“Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hand; ^(D)not a man of them shall ^(E)stand before you.” ⁹Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal. ¹⁰So the Lord ^(F)routed them before Israel, killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, chased them along the road that goes ^(G)to Beth Horon, and struck them down as far as ^(H)Azekah and Makkedah. ¹¹And it happened, as they fled before Israel and were on the descent of Beth Horon, ^(I)that 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.

¹²Then 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:

^(J)“Sun, stand still over Gibeon;
And Moon, in the Valley of ^(K)Aijalon.”
¹³So the sun stood still,
And the moon stopped,
Till the people had revenge
Upon their enemies.

^(L)Is 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. ¹⁴And there has been ^(M)no day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded the voice of a man; for ^(N)the Lord fought for Israel.
