So the sun stood still and the moon stopped moving across the sky. They stayed still while the Israelites punished their enemies. People wrote about this in the Scroll of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky. It did not go down for about a whole day.

So the LORD caused the Israelites to win the fight against the Amorites. After the battle that day, Joshua stood in front of Israel's people and he prayed to the LORD. He said, ‘Sun, stand still over Gibeon city. Moon, stand still over Aijalon Valley.’

A day like that had never happened before, and it has not happened since then. The LORD answered the prayer of a man in such a great way! The LORD himself was fighting the battle on behalf of the Israelites!

The LORD said to Joshua, ‘Do not be afraid of them. I will cause you to win against their armies. They will not be strong enough to fight against you.’

Joshua said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. Be very strong and brave. Look at these kings! This is what the LORD will do to all the enemies that you will fight against.’
