7So Joshua, all his fighting men and best fighters, set off from Gilgal.
8The Lord had said to Joshua, “Don't be afraid of them, for you will defeat them. Not a single one will be able to stand against you.”
9By marching all night from Gilgal, Joshua arrived without warning.
10The Lord threw the Amorite armies into a panic when they saw the Israelites. He struck them down with a great blow at Gibeon; he chased them all the way up to Beth-horon, cutting them down on the way to Azekah and Makkedah.
