Joshua 10:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
10 1 Five kings make war against Gibeon whom Joshua discomfiteth. 11 The Lord rained hailstones and slew many. 12 The Sun standeth at Joshua’s prayer. 26 The five kings are hanged. 29 Many more cities and kings are destroyed.
1 Now when Adoni Zedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai and had destroyed it, ((A)for as he had done to Jericho and to the king thereof, so he had done to (B)Ai and to the king thereof) and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them,
2 Then they feared exceedingly: for Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities: for it was greater than Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty.

Joshua 10:1-2
New International Version
The Sun Stands Still
10 Now Adoni-Zedek(A) king of Jerusalem(B) heard that Joshua had taken Ai(C) and totally destroyed[a](D) it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the people of Gibeon(E) had made a treaty of peace(F) with Israel and had become their allies. 2 He and his people were very much alarmed at this, because Gibeon was an important city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were good fighters.
