Joshua 10:10-14
10 aAnd the Lord threw them into a panic before Israel, who ▼▼Or and he
struck them with a great blow at Gibeon and chased them by the way of cthe ascent of Beth-horon and struck them as far as Azekah and Makkedah. 11And as they fled before Israel, while they were dgoing down the ascent of Beth-horon, ethe Lord threw down large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died. There were more who died because of the hailstones than the sons of Israel killed with the sword. 12At that time Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord gave the Amorites over to the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, f“Sun, stand still at Gibeon,and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
13And the sun stood still, and the moon stopped,
until the nation took vengeance on their enemies.
Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stopped in the midst of heaven and did not hurry to set for about a whole day. 14 gThere has been no day like it before or since, when the Lord heeded the voice of a man, for hthe Lord fought for Israel.
