6The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Don`t slack your hand from your servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country are gathered together against us.
7So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
8Yahweh said to Joshua, Don`t fear them: for I have delivered them into your hands; there shall not a man of them stand before you.
9Joshua therefore came on them suddenly; [for] he went up from Gilgal all the night.
10Yahweh confused them before Israel, and he killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon, and struck them to Azekah, and to Makkedah.
11It happened, as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that Yahweh cast down great stones from the sky on them to Azekah, and they died: they were more who died with the hailstones than they whom the children of Israel killed with the sword.
12Then spoke Joshua to Yahweh in the day when Yahweh delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand you still on Gibeon; You, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon.
