Israel Refined for God’s Glory
48 “Hear this, O house of Jacob,
Who are called by the name of Israel,
And have come forth from the wellsprings of Judah;
Who swear by the name of the Lord,
And make mention of the God of Israel,
But (A)not in truth or in righteousness;
2 For they call themselves (B)after the holy city,
And (C)lean on the God of Israel;
The Lord of hosts is His name:
James 4:8

Joshua 10:9-14
New King James Version
9 Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal. 10 So the Lord (A)routed them before Israel, killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, chased them along the road that goes (B)to Beth Horon, and struck them down as far as (C)Azekah and Makkedah. 11 And it happened, as they fled before Israel and were on the descent of Beth Horon, (D)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.
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:
(E)“Sun, stand still over Gibeon;
And Moon, in the Valley of (F)Aijalon.”
13 So the sun stood still,
And the moon stopped,
Till the people had revenge
Upon their enemies.
(G)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. 14 And there has been (H)no day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded the voice of a man; for (I)the Lord fought for Israel.
