Josh. 10:1 – Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them; (2026) – Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them [cf. v. 4 – Come up unto me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon: for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel. v. 10 – And the LORD discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah. v. 11 – And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Beth-horon, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword. v. 12 – Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon. v. 14 – And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel. v. 15 – And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. v. 20 – And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them entered into fenced cities. v. 21 – And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel. v. 24 – And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them. v. 29 – Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah; v. 30 – And the LORD delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho. v. 31 – And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it; v. 32 – And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah. v. 34 – And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it; v. 36 – And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it; v. 38 – And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it; v. 40 – So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded. v. 42 – And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel. v. 43 – And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.

James 5:16-18 – Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit. II Tim. 1:7 – For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Heb. 4:14-16 – Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.] (2025) – Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them [cf. v. 4 – Come up unto me, and help me, that we may smite Gibeon: for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel. v. 10 – And the LORD discomfited them before Israel, and slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them along the way that goeth up to Beth-horon, and smote them to Azekah, and unto Makkedah. v. 11 – And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Beth-horon, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword. v. 12 – Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon. v. 14 – And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel. v. 15 – And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal. v. 20 – And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, that the rest which remained of them entered into fenced cities. v. 21 – And all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel. v. 24 – And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings.
