Joshua 10:11-14
Joshua 10:11-14 TPT
As the Amorites raced down the hill to Beth Horon, YAHWEH hurled large hailstones on them from the sky! The hail continued to fall all the way to Azekah; in fact, more men died from YAHWEH’s hailstones than by the swords of the Israelites. YAHWEH gave the men of Israel victory over the Amorites that day, the day when Joshua stood before the people and prayed to YAHWEH: “Sun, stand still over Gibeon! Moon, stay where you are over the valley of Aijalon!” And so the sun stood still in the middle of the sky and was in no hurry to set until one day became two. And the moon halted while the nation triumphed over its enemies—as it is also recorded in the Scroll of the Upright One. It was the day YAHWEH himself fought for Israel! There has never been a day like it before or since—a day when YAHWEH obeyed the voice of a man!
