Joshua 10:6-11

Lexham English Bible

⁶ And the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, saying, “Do not abandon^[a] your servant. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, for all the kings of the Amorites^[b] who dwell in the hill country have gathered against us.” ⁷ So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the fighting men^[c] with him, all the best warriors.^{[d] 8} And Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for I have given them into your hand; no one will withstand you.^{[e] 9} Joshua came upon them suddenly by marching up^[f] all night from Gilgal. ¹⁰ And Yahweh threw them into panic before Israel, who^[g] struck them with a great blow at Gibeon and pursued them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon and struck them as far as Azekah and Makkedah. ¹¹ And as they were fleeing from Israel, they were on the slope of Beth-horon, and Yahweh threw huge stones from the heavens on them as far as Azekah; and more died by the hail stones than those whom the Israelites^[h] killed by the sword.
