3 And Adoni Sedeq sovereign of Yeru Shalem sends to Hoham sovereign of Hebron and to Piram sovereign of Yarmuth and to Yaphia sovereign of Lachish and to Debir sovereign of Eglon, saying,
4 Ascend to me and help me smite Gibon: for it shalams with Yah Shua and with the sons of Yisra El.
5 So the five sovereigns of the Emoriy - the sovereign of Yeru Shalem, the sovereign of Hebron, the sovereign of Yarmuth, the sovereign of Lachish, the sovereign of Eglon, gather together and ascend - they and all their camps and encamp against Gibon and fight.
6 And the men of Gibon send to Yah Shua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Slack not your hand from your servants; ascend to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the sovereigns of the Emoriy settling in the mountains gather together against us.
7 So Yah Shua ascends from Gilgal - he and all the people of war with him and all the mighty of valour.
8 And Yah Veh says to Yah Shua, Awe them not: for I give them into your hand; not a man of them stands at your face.
9 And Yah Shua comes to them suddenly and ascends from Gilgal all night:
10 and Yah Veh agitates them at the face of Yisra El and smites them with a great stroke at Gibon; and pursues them along the way of the ascent of Beth Horon and smites them to Azeqah and to Maqqedah.
11 And so be it, as they flee the face of Yisra El and are in the descent of Beth Horon, Yah Veh casts great stones from the heavens on them to Azeqah, and they die: and they who died with hailstones are greater than they whom the sons of Yisra El slaughtered with the sword.
12 Yah Shua words to Yah Veh in the day Yah Veh gives the Emoriy at the face of the sons of Yisra El: and he says in the eyes of Yisra El, Sun, stand still on Gibon! and, Moon, in the valley of Ayalon!
13 And the sun stands still and the moon stays until the goyim avenge themselves on their enemies. Is not this inscribed in the scroll of the straight? So the sun stands still midst the heavens, and hastens to not go down about an integrious day.
14 And there became no day like that at the face of it or after it, that Yah Veh hearkened to the voice of a man: for Yah Veh fights for Yisra El.
15 And Yah Shua returns - and all Yisra El with him, to the camp to Gilgal.

FIVE SOVEREIGNS HIDE And these five sovereigns flee and hide in a cave at Maqqedah. 17 And Yah Shua is told, saying, The five sovereigns are found hidden in a cave at Maqqedah. 18 And Yah Shua says, Roll great stones on the mouth of the cave, and oversee men by it to guard them: 19 and you stay not; but pursue your enemies and curtail them; give them not to enter into their cities: for Yah Veh your Elohim gives them into your hand. 20 And so be it, Yah Shua and the sons of Yisra El finish them off with a mighty great stroke until they are consumed; and the surviving survivors enter into fortified cities: 21 and all the people return to Yah Shua to the camp at Maqqedah in shalom: none pointen his tongue against any man of the sons of Yisra El. 22
FIVE SOVEREIGNS SLAUGHTERED Yah Shua says, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring those five sovereigns to me from the cave. 23 - and thus they work, and bring those five sovereigns to him from the cave: the sovereign of Yeru Shalem, the sovereign of Hebron, the sovereign of Yarmuth, the sovereign of Lachish, and the sovereign of Eglon.
