⁴Those kings marched out with all of their troops. They had a large number of horses and chariots. It was a huge army. The fighting men were as many as the grains of sand on the seashore. ⁵All of those kings gathered their armies together to fight against Israel. They set up camp together at the Waters of Merom.

⁶The Lord spoke to Joshua. He said, “Do not be afraid of them. By this time tomorrow I will hand all of them over to Israel. All of them will be killed. You must cut the legs of their horses. You must burn up their chariots.”

⁷So Joshua and his whole army attacked them suddenly. They fought against them at the Waters of Merom. ⁸The Lord handed them over to Israel. Israel won the battle over them. They hunted them down all the way to Greater Sidon. They chased them to Misrephoth Maim. They chased them to the Valley of Mizpah in the east. Not one of them was left alive.

⁹Joshua did to them what the Lord had directed him to do. He cut the legs of their horses. He burned up their chariots.
