Seeker Overlay ON
*
And it came to pass ,
as they fled from before Israel ,
and were in the going down to Bethhoron ,
that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah ,
and they died :
they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword .
*
Then spake Joshua 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 ,
Sun ,
stand thou still upon Gibeon ;
and thou ,
Moon ,
in the valley of Ajalon .
*
And the sun stood still ,
and the moon stayed ,
until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies .
Is not this written in the book of Jasher ?
So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven ,
and hasted not to go down about a whole day .
*
And there was no day like that before it or after it ,
that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man :
for the LORD fought for Israel .
*
And Joshua returned ,
and all Israel with him ,
unto the camp to Gilgal .
*
But these five kings fled ,
and hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah .
*
And it was told Joshua ,
saying ,
The five kings are found hid in a cave at Makkedah .
*
And Joshua said ,
Roll great stones upon the mouth of the cave ,
and set men by it for to keep them :
*
And stay ye not ,
but pursue after your enemies ,
and smite the hindmost of them ;
suffer them not to enter into their cities :
for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hand .
*
And it came to pass ,
when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter ,
till they were consumed ,
that the rest which remained of them entered into fenced cities .
*
And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace :
none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel .
*
Then said Joshua ,
Open the mouth of the cave ,
and bring out those five kings unto me out of the cave .
*
And they did so ,
and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave ,
the king of Jerusalem ,
the king of Hebron ,
the king of Jarmuth ,
the king of Lachish ,
and the king of Eglon .
*
And it came to pass ,
when they brought out those kings unto Joshua ,
that Joshua called for all the men of Israel ,
and said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him ,
Come near ,
put your feet upon the necks of these kings .
And they came near ,
and put their feet upon the necks of them .
