Joshua 10:10-11
New English Translation
Joshua 10:10-11
New English Translation
10 The Lord routed[a] them before Israel. Israel[b] thoroughly defeated them[c] at Gibeon. They chased them up the road to the pass[d] of Beth Horon and struck them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah. 11 As they fled from Israel on the slope leading down from[e] Beth Horon, the Lord threw down on them large hailstones from the sky,[f] all the way to Azekah. They died—in fact, more died from the hailstones than the Israelites killed with the sword.
