Joshua captured all these kings and their territories in one campaign because the Lord God of Israel fought for Israel.
The Lord is on my side. I am not afraid. What can mortals do to me?
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble.
The Lord of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
O God, restore us and smile on us so that we may be saved.
The Lord is fighting for you! So be still!”
He made the wheels of their chariots come off so that they could hardly move. Then the Egyptians shouted, “Let’s get out of here! The Lord is fighting for Israel! He’s against us!”
Since you are precious to me, you are honored and I love you. I will exchange others for you. Nations will be the price I pay for your life.
The Lord your God is going with you. He will fight for you against your enemies and give you victory.”
Never before or after this day was there anything like it. The Lord did what a man told him to do, because the Lord fought for Israel.
Then Joshua and all Israel returned to the camp at Gilgal.
