1 And when Jabin the king of Hazor heard these things, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 and to the kings who were by the great Sidon, to the hill country and to Arabah opposite Chinneroth, and to the plain, and to Dor,
3 and to the Canaanites on the coast eastward, and to the Amorites on the coast, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites in the mountains, and the Hivites, and those dwelling below Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
4 And they and their kings with them went forth, as the sand of the sea in multitude, and horses, and very many chariots.
5 And all the kings assembled in person, and came to the same place, and encamped at the waters of Merom to war with Israel.
6 And the Lord said to Joshua, Be not afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will put them to flight before Israel: you shall hamstring their horses, and burn their chariots with fire
7 And Joshua and all the men of war came upon them at the water of Merom suddenly; and they attacked them in the hill country.
8 And the Lord delivered them into the power of Israel; and they struck them and pursued them to Great Sidon, and to Misrephoth, and to the plains of Mizpah eastward; and they destroyed them till there was not one of them left that survived.
9 And Joshua did to them as the Lord commanded him: he hamstrung their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.
