Joshua 11:7 Context
5And when all these Kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel. 6¶ And the Lord saide vnto Ioshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliuer them vp al slaine before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burne their charets with fire. 7So Ioshua came, and all the people of warre with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly, and they fell vpon them. 8And the Lord deliuered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them vnto great Zidon, and vnto Misrephothmaim, and vnto the valley of Mizpeh Eastward, and they smote them, vntill they left them none remayning. 9And Ioshua did vnto them as the Lord bade him: hee houghed their horses, and burnt their charets with fire.
