9Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal. 10So the Lord orouted them before Israel, killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, chased them along the road that goes pto Beth Horon, and struck them down as far as qAzekah and Makkedah. 11And it happened, as they fled before Israel and were on the descent of Beth Horon, rthat 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.

12Then 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:

s“Sun, stand still over Gibeon;

And Moon, in the Valley of tAijalon.”

13So the sun stood still,

And the moon stopped,

Till the people had revenge

Upon their enemies.

uIs 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. 14And there has been vno day like that, before it or after it, that the Lord heeded the voice of a man; for wthe Lord fought for Israel.
