Joshua 10:8-10

Context
10:8 The Lord told Joshua, “Don’t be afraid of them, for I am handing them over to you.¹ Not one of them can resist you.”² 10:9 Joshua attacked them by surprise after marching all night from Gilgal.³ 10:10 The Lord routed⁴ them before Israel. Israel⁵ thoroughly defeated them⁶ at Gibeon. They chased them up the road to the pass⁷ of Beth Horon and struck them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah.

¹tn Heb “I have given them into your hand.” The verbal form is a perfect of certitude, emphasizing the certainty of the action.

²tn Heb “and not a man [or “one”] of them will stand before you.”

³tn Heb “Joshua came upon them suddenly, all the night he went up from Gilgal.”

⁴tn Or “caused to panic.”

⁵tn Heb “he.” The referent is probably Israel (mentioned at the end of the previous sentence in the verse; cf. NIV, NRSV), but it is also possible that the Lord should be understood as the referent (cf. NASB “and He slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon”), or even Joshua (cf. NEB “and Joshua defeated them utterly in Gibeon”).

⁶tn Heb “struck them down with a great striking down.”

⁷tn Or “ascent.”
