10aAnd Yahweh threw them into confusion before Israel, and He struck them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon and struck them as far as Azekah and Makkedah.

11Now it happened as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that aYahweh threw down large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died; there were more who died 1from the hailstones than those whom the sons of Israel killed with the sword.

12Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh in the day when Yahweh gave over the Amorites before the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel,

“O asun, stand still at Gibeon,

And O moon in the valley of Aijalon.”

13aSo the sun stood still, and the moon stopped,

Until the nation avenged themselves of their enemies.

Is it not written in bthe book of Jashar? And cthe sun stood in the middle of the sky and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.

14And there was no day like that before it or after it, when Yahweh listened to the voice of a man; for aYahweh fought for Israel.
