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 gathered together, and came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

6 Yet the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid because of them, for tomorrow at this time I am going to turn all of them over to Israel as good as dead; 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 at the waters of Merom, and attacked them.

8 And the LORD handed them over to Israel, so that they defeated them, and pursued them as far as Great Sidon, and Misrephoth-maim, and the Valley of Mizpeh to the east; and they struck them until no survivor was left to them.

9 And Joshua did to them just as the LORD had told him; he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.
