Joshua 11:4-9 ▼

4 and they go out, they and all their camps with them, a people numerous, as the sand which [is] on the seashore for multitude, and [with] very many horse and charioteer;

5 and all these kings are met together, and they come and encamp together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.

6 And YHWH says to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of their presence, for about this time tomorrow I am giving all of them slain before Israel; hamstring their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.”

7 And Joshua comes, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom, and they suddenly fall on them;

8 and YHWH gives them into the hand of Israel, and they strike them and pursue them to the great Sidon, and to Misrephoth-Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpeh eastward, and they strike them, until he has not left a remnant to them;

9 and Joshua does to them as YHWH commanded to him; he has hamstrung their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.
