Joshua 11:4-9 ▼

4 Then they came out, they and all their armies with them, as many people as the sand that is on the seashore, with very many horses and chariots.

5 So all of these kings agreed to meet, and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

6 Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid because of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give all of them over, slain, before Israel; you shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”

7 So Joshua and all the people of war with him came upon them suddenly by the waters of Merom, and they fell upon them.

8 And Yahweh gave them into the hand of Israel, so that they struck them down, and they pursued them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim and the valley of Mizpeh to the east; and they struck them until there was no survivor remaining for them.

9 And Joshua did to them as Yahweh had said to him; he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.
