BRAGADAYJAH 652
After they were surrounded, the men of Gibeon sent
messengers to Joshua at Gilgal urging him to come as quickly as he could to
their aid to save them because all the kings of the Amorites that dwelt in the
mountains had gathered themselves against them.
So Joshua ascended from Gilgal with all his mighty men of war. And the
Lord said to Joshua, fear them not; for I have delivered them into your hands,
and there shall not be a man of them that shall stand before you.” So Joshua came unto them suddenly, having
marched on them from Gilgal at night.
And the Lord discomforted the enemy before Israel, and they slew them
with a great slaughter at Gibeon and chased them along the way that goes to Bethhoron,
and smote them to Azekah and unto Makkedah.
And it came to pass that as they fled before Israel and were going down
to Bethhoron, that the Lord cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto
Azekah and they died. And there were more who died from hailstones than they
whom the children of Israel slew with the sword.
