Joshua 10:11-13
Modern English Version
Joshua 10:11-13
Modern English Version
11 As they fled from Israel on the downslope from Beth Horon, the Lord hurled large hailstones down upon them from the sky as far as Azekah. They died, and in fact more died from the hailstones than the children of Israel killed with the sword.
12 On the day the Lord gave over the Amorites to the children of Israel, Joshua spoke to the Lord and said in full view of Israel:
“Sun, stand still over Gibeon;
and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
13 So the sun stood still,
and the moon stood in place
until the people brought vengeance on their enemies.
Is this not written in the book of Jashar?
The sun stood still in the middle of the sky and did not set for about a full day.

11 As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the Lord hurled large hailstones(A) down on them,(B) and more of them died from the hail than were killed by the swords of the Israelites.
12 On the day the Lord gave the Amorites(C) over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel:
“Sun, stand still over Gibeon,
and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.(D)”
13 So the sun stood still,(E)
and the moon stopped,
till the nation avenged itself on[a] its enemies,
as it is written in the Book of Jashar.(F)
The sun stopped(G) in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.
