#10: Saul Rescues The City Of Jabesh<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Samuel 11:1-11<\/p>\n

Chapter 11<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now Nahash the Ammonite came up and besieged Jabesh-gilead; and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, \"Make a covenant with us and we will serve you.\"<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> But Nahash the Ammonite said to them, \"I will make it with you on this condition, that I will gouge out the right eye of every one of you, thus I will make it a reproach on all Israel.\"<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> The elders of Jabesh said to him, \"Let us alone for seven days, that we may send messengers throughout the territory of Israel. Then, if there is no one to deliver us, we will come out to you.\"<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and spoke these words in the hearing of the people, and all the people lifted up their voices and wept.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> Now behold, Saul was coming from the field behind the oxen, and he said, \"What is the matter with the people that they weep?\" So they related to him the words of the men of Jabesh.<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> Then the Spirit of God came upon Saul mightily when he heard these words, and he became very angry.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> He took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout the territory of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, \"Whoever does not come out after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen.\" Then the dread of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out as one man.<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> He numbered them in Bezek; and the sons of Israel were 300,000, and the men of Judah 30,000.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> They said to the messengers who had come, \"Thus you shall say to the men of Jabesh-gilead, 'Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you will have deliverance.'\" So the messengers went and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> Then the men of Jabesh said, \"Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you may do to us whatever seems good to you.\"<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> The next morning Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp at the morning watch and struck down the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.<\/p><\/div>\n

Translation: NASB<\/em><\/p>\n

#9: David Defeats The Ammonites<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 Samuel 10:1-19<\/p>\n

Chapter 10<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now it happened afterwards that the king of the Ammonites died, and Hanun his son became king in his place.<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> Then David said, \"I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, just as his father showed kindness to me.\" So David sent some of his servants to console him concerning his father. But when David's servants came to the land of the Ammonites,<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun their lord, \"Do you think that David is honoring your father because he has sent consolers to you? Has David not sent his servants to you in order to search the city, to spy it out and overthrow it?\"<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> So Hanun took David's servants and shaved off half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle as far as their hips, and sent them away.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> When they told it to David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly humiliated. And the king said, \"Stay at Jericho until your beards grow, and then return.\"<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> Now when the sons of Ammon saw that they had become odious to David, the sons of Ammon sent and hired the Arameans of Beth-rehob and the Arameans of Zobah, 20,000 foot soldiers, and the king of Maacah with 1,000 men, and the men of Tob with 12,000 men.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> When David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army, the mighty men.<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> The sons of Ammon came out and drew up in battle array at the entrance of the city, while the Arameans of Zobah and of Rehob and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the field.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him in front and in the rear, he selected from all the choice men of Israel, and arrayed them against the Arameans.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> But the remainder of the people he placed in the hand of Abishai his brother, and he arrayed them against the sons of Ammon.<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> He said, \"If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you shall help me, but if the sons of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come to help you.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> \"Be strong, and let us show ourselves courageous for the sake of our people and for the cities of our God; and may the LORD do what is good in His sight.\"<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> So Joab and the people who were with him drew near to the battle against the Arameans, and they fled before him.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> When the sons of Ammon saw that the Arameans fled, they also fled before Abishai and entered the city. Then Joab returned from fighting against the sons of Ammon and came to Jerusalem.<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they gathered themselves together.<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> And Hadadezer sent and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the River, and they came to Helam; and Shobach the commander of the army of Hadadezer led them.<\/p>

17<\/small><\/span> Now when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together and crossed the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Arameans arrayed themselves to meet David and fought against him.<\/p>

18<\/small><\/span> But the Arameans fled before Israel, and David killed 700 charioteers of the Arameans and 40,000 horsemen and struck down Shobach the commander of their army, and he died there.<\/p>

19<\/small><\/span> When all the kings, servants of Hadadezer, saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and served them. So the Arameans feared to help the sons of Ammon anymore.<\/p><\/div>\n

Translation: NASB<\/em>
\n#8: Joshua Destroy Ai<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joshua 8:1-29<\/p>\n

Chapter 8<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now the LORD said to Joshua, \"Do not fear or be dismayed. Take all the people of war with you and arise, go up to Ai; see, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, his people, his city, and his land.<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> \"You shall do to Ai and its king just as you did to Jericho and its king; you shall take only its spoil and its cattle as plunder for yourselves. Set an ambush for the city behind it.\"<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> So Joshua rose with all the people of war to go up to Ai; and Joshua chose 30,000 men, valiant warriors, and sent them out at night.<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> He commanded them, saying, \"See, you are going to ambush the city from behind it. Do not go very far from the city, but all of you be ready.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> \"Then I and all the people who are with me will approach the city. And when they come out to meet us as at the first, we will flee before them.<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> \"They will come out after us until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say, 'They are fleeing before us as at the first.' So we will flee before them.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> \"And you shall rise from your ambush and take possession of the city, for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand.<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> \"Then it will be when you have seized the city, that you shall set the city on fire. You shall do it according to the word of the LORD. See, I have commanded you.\"<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> So Joshua sent them away, and they went to the place of ambush and remained between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai; but Joshua spent that night among the people.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> Now Joshua rose early in the morning and mustered the people, and he went up with the elders of Israel before the people to Ai.<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> Then all the people of war who were with him went up and drew near and arrived in front of the city, and camped on the north side of Ai. Now there was a valley between him and Ai.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> And he took about 5,000 men and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> So they stationed the people, all the army that was on the north side of the city, and its rear guard on the west side of the city, and Joshua spent that night in the midst of the valley.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> It came about when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurried and rose up early and went out to meet Israel in battle, he and all his people at the appointed place before the desert plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> Joshua and all Israel pretended to be beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> And all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and they pursued Joshua and were drawn away from the city.<\/p>

17<\/small><\/span> So not a man was left in Ai or Bethel who had not gone out after Israel, and they left the city unguarded and pursued Israel.<\/p>

18<\/small><\/span> Then the LORD said to Joshua, \"Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai, for I will give it into your hand.\" So Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.<\/p>

19<\/small><\/span> The men in ambush rose quickly from their place, and when he had stretched out his hand, they ran and entered the city and captured it, and they quickly set the city on fire.<\/p>

20<\/small><\/span> When the men of Ai turned back and looked, behold, the smoke of the city ascended to the sky, and they had no place to flee this way or that, for the people who had been fleeing to the wilderness turned against the pursuers.<\/p>

21<\/small><\/span> When Joshua and all Israel saw that the men in ambush had captured the city and that the smoke of the city ascended, they turned back and slew the men of Ai.<\/p>

22<\/small><\/span> The others came out from the city to encounter them, so that they were trapped in the midst of Israel, some on this side and some on that side; and they slew them until no one was left of those who survived or escaped.<\/p>

23<\/small><\/span> But they took alive the king of Ai and brought him to Joshua.<\/p>

24<\/small><\/span> Now when Israel had finished killing all the inhabitants of Ai in the field in the wilderness where they pursued them, and all of them were fallen by the edge of the sword until they were destroyed, then all Israel returned to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.<\/p>

25<\/small><\/span> All who fell that day, both men and women, were 12,000--all the people of Ai.<\/p>

26<\/small><\/span> For Joshua did not withdraw his hand with which he stretched out the javelin until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.<\/p>

27<\/small><\/span> Israel took only the cattle and the spoil of that city as plunder for themselves, according to the word of the LORD which He had commanded Joshua.<\/p>

28<\/small><\/span> So Joshua burned Ai and made it a heap forever, a desolation until this day.<\/p>

29<\/small><\/span> He hanged the king of Ai on a tree until evening; and at sunset Joshua gave command and they took his body down from the tree and threw it at the entrance of the city gate, and raised over it a great heap of stones that stands to this day.<\/p><\/div>\n

#7: Johnathan Attacks The Philistines<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Samuel 14:1-23<\/p>\n

Chapter 14<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now the day came that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was carrying his armor, \"Come and let us cross over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side.\" But he did not tell his father.<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron. And the people who were with him were about six hundred men,<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of the LORD at Shiloh, was wearing an ephod. And the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> Between the passes by which Jonathan sought to cross over to the Philistines' garrison, there was a sharp crag on the one side and a sharp crag on the other side, and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> The one crag rose on the north opposite Michmash, and the other on the south opposite Geba.<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> Then Jonathan said to the young man who was carrying his armor, \"Come and let us cross over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; perhaps the LORD will work for us, for the LORD is not restrained to save by many or by few.\"<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> His armor bearer said to him, \"Do all that is in your heart; turn yourself, and here I am with you according to your desire.\"<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> Then Jonathan said, \"Behold, we will cross over to the men and reveal ourselves to them.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> \"If they say to us, 'Wait until we come to you'; then we will stand in our place and not go up to them.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> \"But if they say, 'Come up to us,' then we will go up, for the LORD has given them into our hands; and this shall be the sign to us.\"<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> When both of them revealed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines, the Philistines said, \"Behold, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden themselves.\"<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> So the men of the garrison hailed Jonathan and his armor bearer and said, \"Come up to us and we will tell you something.\" And Jonathan said to his armor bearer, \"Come up after me, for the LORD has given them into the hands of Israel.\"<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> Then Jonathan climbed up on his hands and feet, with his armor bearer behind him; and they fell before Jonathan, and his armor bearer put some to death after him.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer made was about twenty men within about half a furrow in an acre of land.<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> And there was a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even the garrison and the raiders trembled, and the earth quaked so that it became a great trembling.<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> Now Saul's watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away; and they went here and there.<\/p>

17<\/small><\/span> Saul said to the people who were with him, \"Number now and see who has gone from us.\" And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armor bearer were not there.<\/p>

18<\/small><\/span> Then Saul said to Ahijah, \"Bring the ark of God here.\" For the ark of God was at that time with the sons of Israel.<\/p>

19<\/small><\/span> While Saul talked to the priest, the commotion in the camp of the Philistines continued and increased; so Saul said to the priest, \"Withdraw your hand.\"<\/p>

20<\/small><\/span> Then Saul and all the people who were with him rallied and came to the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was very great confusion.<\/p>

21<\/small><\/span> Now the Hebrews who were with the Philistines previously, who went up with them all around in the camp, even they also turned to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.<\/p>

22<\/small><\/span> When all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines had fled, even they also pursued them closely in the battle.<\/p>

23<\/small><\/span> So the LORD delivered Israel that day, and the battle spread beyond Beth-aven.<\/p><\/div>\n

Translation: NASB<\/em><\/p>\n

#6: Moses Raises His Arms For Victory Over the Amalekites<\/strong><\/p>\n

Exodus 17:8-16<\/p>\n

Chapter 17<\/h4>

8<\/small><\/span> Then Amalek came and fought against Israel at Rephidim.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> So Moses said to Joshua, \"Choose men for us and go out, fight against Amalek. Tomorrow I will station myself on the top of the hill with the staff of God in my hand.\"<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> Joshua did as Moses told him, and fought against Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> So it came about when Moses held his hand up, that Israel prevailed, and when he let his hand down, Amalek prevailed.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> But Moses' hands were heavy. Then they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it; and Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side and one on the other. Thus his hands were steady until the sun set.<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> So Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> Then the LORD said to Moses, \"Write this in a book as a memorial and recite it to Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven.\"<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> Moses built an altar and named it The LORD is My Banner;<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> and he said, \"The LORD has sworn; the LORD will have war against Amalek from generation to generation.\"<\/p><\/div>\n

#5: Jehoshaphat Defeats Moab And Ammon<\/strong><\/p>\n

2 Chronicles 20:1-30<\/p>\n

Chapter 20<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now it came about after this that the sons of Moab and the sons of Ammon, together with some of the Meunites, came to make war against Jehoshaphat.<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> Then some came and reported to Jehoshaphat, saying, \"A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, out of Aram and behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar (that is Engedi).\"<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> Jehoshaphat was afraid and turned his attention to seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> So Judah gathered together to seek help from the LORD; they even came from all the cities of Judah to seek the LORD.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> Then Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD before the new court,<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> and he said, \"O LORD, the God of our fathers, are You not God in the heavens? And are You not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand so that no one can stand against You.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> \"Did You not, O our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel and give it to the descendants of Abraham Your friend forever?<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> \"They have lived in it, and have built You a sanctuary there for Your name, saying,<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> 'Should evil come upon us, the sword, or judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house and before You (for Your name is in this house) and cry to You in our distress, and You will hear and deliver us.'<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> \"Now behold, the sons of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom You did not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt (they turned aside from them and did not destroy them),<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> see how they are rewarding us by coming to drive us out from Your possession which You have given us as an inheritance.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> \"O our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this great multitude who are coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are on You.\"<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> All Judah was standing before the LORD, with their infants, their wives and their children.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> Then in the midst of the assembly the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite of the sons of Asaph;<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> and he said, \"Listen, all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem and King Jehoshaphat: thus says the LORD to you, 'Do not fear or be dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours but God's.<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> 'Tomorrow go down against them. Behold, they will come up by the ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the valley in front of the wilderness of Jeruel.<\/p>

17<\/small><\/span> 'You need not fight in this battle; station yourselves, stand and see the salvation of the LORD on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem.' Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out to face them, for the LORD is with you.\"<\/p>

18<\/small><\/span> Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the LORD, worshiping the LORD.<\/p>

19<\/small><\/span> The Levites, from the sons of the Kohathites and of the sons of the Korahites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel, with a very loud voice.<\/p>

20<\/small><\/span> They rose early in the morning and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa; and when they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, \"Listen to me, O Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, put your trust in the LORD your God and you will be established. Put your trust in His prophets and succeed.\"<\/p>

21<\/small><\/span> When he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who sang to the LORD and those who praised Him in holy attire, as they went out before the army and said, \"Give thanks to the LORD, for His lovingkindness is everlasting.\"<\/p>

22<\/small><\/span> When they began singing and praising, the LORD set ambushes against the sons of Ammon, Moab and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; so they were routed.<\/p>

23<\/small><\/span> For the sons of Ammon and Moab rose up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir destroying them completely; and when they had finished with the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.<\/p>

24<\/small><\/span> When Judah came to the lookout of the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude, and behold, they were corpses lying on the ground, and no one had escaped.<\/p>

25<\/small><\/span> When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their spoil, they found much among them, including goods, garments and valuable things which they took for themselves, more than they could carry. And they were three days taking the spoil because there was so much.<\/p>

26<\/small><\/span> Then on the fourth day they assembled in the valley of Beracah, for there they blessed the LORD. Therefore they have named that place \"The Valley of Beracah\" until today.<\/p>

27<\/small><\/span> Every man of Judah and Jerusalem returned with Jehoshaphat at their head, returning to Jerusalem with joy, for the LORD had made them to rejoice over their enemies.<\/p>

28<\/small><\/span> They came to Jerusalem with harps, lyres and trumpets to the house of the LORD.<\/p>

29<\/small><\/span> And the dread of God was on all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that the LORD had fought against the enemies of Israel.<\/p>

30<\/small><\/span> So the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was at peace, for his God gave him rest on all sides.<\/p><\/div>\n

#4: Gideon Defeats The Midianites<\/strong><\/p>\n

Judges 7:1-25<\/p>\n

Chapter 7<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him, rose early and camped beside the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> The LORD said to Gideon, \"The people who are with you are too many for Me to give Midian into their hands, for Israel would become boastful, saying, 'My own power has delivered me.'<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> \"Now therefore come, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, 'Whoever is afraid and trembling, let him return and depart from Mount Gilead.'\" So 22,000 people returned, but 10,000 remained.<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> Then the LORD said to Gideon, \"The people are still too many; bring them down to the water and I will test them for you there. Therefore it shall be that he of whom I say to you, 'This one shall go with you,' he shall go with you; but everyone of whom I say to you, 'This one shall not go with you,' he shall not go.\"<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> So he brought the people down to the water. And the LORD said to Gideon, \"You shall separate everyone who laps the water with his tongue as a dog laps, as well as everyone who kneels to drink.\"<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> Now the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was 300 men; but all the rest of the people kneeled to drink water.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> The LORD said to Gideon, \"I will deliver you with the 300 men who lapped and will give the Midianites into your hands; so let all the other people go, each man to his home.\"<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> So the 300 men took the people's provisions and their trumpets into their hands. And Gideon sent all the other men of Israel, each to his tent, but retained the 300 men; and the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> Now the same night it came about that the LORD said to him, \"Arise, go down against the camp, for I have given it into your hands.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> \"But if you are afraid to go down, go with Purah your servant down to the camp,<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> and you will hear what they say; and afterward your hands will be strengthened that you may go down against the camp.\" So he went with Purah his servant down to the outposts of the army that was in the camp.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> Now the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east were lying in the valley as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number, as numerous as the sand on the seashore.<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> When Gideon came, behold, a man was relating a dream to his friend. And he said, \"Behold, I had a dream; a loaf of barley bread was tumbling into the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down so that the tent lay flat.\"<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> His friend replied, \"This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel; God has given Midian and all the camp into his hand.\"<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> When Gideon heard the account of the dream and its interpretation, he bowed in worship. He returned to the camp of Israel and said, \"Arise, for the LORD has given the camp of Midian into your hands.\"<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> He divided the 300 men into three companies, and he put trumpets and empty pitchers into the hands of all of them, with torches inside the pitchers.<\/p>

17<\/small><\/span> He said to them, \"Look at me and do likewise. And behold, when I come to the outskirts of the camp, do as I do.<\/p>

18<\/small><\/span> \"When I and all who are with me blow the trumpet, then you also blow the trumpets all around the camp and say, 'For the LORD and for Gideon.'\"<\/p>

19<\/small><\/span> So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, when they had just posted the watch; and they blew the trumpets and smashed the pitchers that were in their hands.<\/p>

20<\/small><\/span> When the three companies blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers, they held the torches in their left hands and the trumpets in their right hands for blowing, and cried, \"A sword for the LORD and for Gideon!\"<\/p>

21<\/small><\/span> Each stood in his place around the camp; and all the army ran, crying out as they fled.<\/p>

22<\/small><\/span> When they blew 300 trumpets, the LORD set the sword of one against another even throughout the whole army; and the army fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the edge of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.<\/p>

23<\/small><\/span> The men of Israel were summoned from Naphtali and Asher and all Manasseh, and they pursued Midian.<\/p>

24<\/small><\/span> Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, \"Come down against Midian and take the waters before them, as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan.\" So all the men of Ephraim were summoned and they took the waters as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan.<\/p>

25<\/small><\/span> They captured the two leaders of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and they killed Zeeb at the wine press of Zeeb, while they pursued Midian; and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon from across the Jordan.<\/p><\/div>\n

#3: The Sun Stands Still To Help Israel Defeat The Amorites<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joshua 10:1-15<\/p>\n

Chapter 10<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now it came about when Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured Ai, and had utterly destroyed it (just as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king), and that the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were within their land,<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> that he feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> Therefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent word to Hoham king of Hebron and to Piram king of Jarmuth and to Japhia king of Lachish and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> \"Come up to me and help me, and let us attack Gibeon, for it has made peace with Joshua and with the sons of Israel.\"<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> So the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered together and went up, they with all their armies, and camped by Gibeon and fought against it.<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> Then the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal, saying, \"Do not abandon your servants; come up to us quickly and save us and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites that live in the hill country have assembled against us.\"<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him and all the valiant warriors.<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> The LORD said to Joshua, \"Do not fear them, for I have given them into your hands; not one of them shall stand before you.\"<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> So Joshua came upon them suddenly by marching all night from Gilgal.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> And the LORD confounded them before Israel, and He slew them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon and struck them as far as Azekah and Makkedah.<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> As they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, the LORD threw large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died; there were more who died from the hailstones than those whom the sons of Israel killed with the sword.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, \"O sun, stand still at Gibeon, And O moon in the valley of Aijalon.\"<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, Until the nation avenged themselves of their enemies. Is it not written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stopped in the middle of the sky and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> There was no day like that before it or after it, when the LORD listened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> Then Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp to Gilgal.<\/p><\/div>\n

Translation: NASB<\/em><\/p>\n

#2: The Battle Of Jericho<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joshua 5:13-2:37<\/p>\n

Chapter 5<\/h4>

2<\/small><\/span> At that time the LORD said to Joshua, \"Make for yourself flint knives and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.\"<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> So Joshua made himself flint knives and circumcised the sons of Israel at Gibeath-haaraloth.<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> This is the reason why Joshua circumcised them: all the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way after they came out of Egypt.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> For all the people who came out were circumcised, but all the people who were born in the wilderness along the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> For the sons of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, perished because they did not listen to the voice of the LORD, to whom the LORD had sworn that He would not let them see the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> Their children whom He raised up in their place, Joshua circumcised; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them along the way.<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> Now when they had finished circumcising all the nation, they remained in their places in the camp until they were healed.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> Then the LORD said to Joshua, \"Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.\" So the name of that place is called Gilgal to this day.<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> While the sons of Israel camped at Gilgal they observed the Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month on the desert plains of Jericho.<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> On the day after the Passover, on that very day, they ate some of the produce of the land, unleavened cakes and parched grain.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> The manna ceased on the day after they had eaten some of the produce of the land, so that the sons of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate some of the yield of the land of Canaan during that year.<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> Now it came about when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing opposite him with his sword drawn in his hand, and Joshua went to him and said to him, \"Are you for us or for our adversaries?\"<\/p><\/div>\n

#1: David And Goliath<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Samuel 17:1-51<\/p>\n

Chapter 17<\/h4>

1<\/small><\/span> Now the Philistines gathered their armies for battle; and they were gathered at Socoh which belongs to Judah, and they camped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes-dammim.<\/p>

2<\/small><\/span> Saul and the men of Israel were gathered and camped in the valley of Elah, and drew up in battle array to encounter the Philistines.<\/p>

3<\/small><\/span> The Philistines stood on the mountain on one side while Israel stood on the mountain on the other side, with the valley between them.<\/p>

4<\/small><\/span> Then a champion came out from the armies of the Philistines named Goliath, from Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.<\/p>

5<\/small><\/span> He had a bronze helmet on his head, and he was clothed with scale-armor which weighed five thousand shekels of bronze.<\/p>

6<\/small><\/span> He also had bronze greaves on his legs and a bronze javelin slung between his shoulders.<\/p>

7<\/small><\/span> The shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred shekels of iron; his shield-carrier also walked before him.<\/p>

8<\/small><\/span> He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel and said to them, \"Why do you come out to draw up in battle array? Am I not the Philistine and you servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves and let him come down to me.<\/p>

9<\/small><\/span> \"If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will become your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall become our servants and serve us.\"<\/p>

10<\/small><\/span> Again the Philistine said, \"I defy the ranks of Israel this day; give me a man that we may fight together.\"<\/p>

11<\/small><\/span> When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.<\/p>

12<\/small><\/span> Now David was the son of the Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse, and he had eight sons. And Jesse was old in the days of Saul, advanced in years among men.<\/p>

13<\/small><\/span> The three older sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle. And the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and the second to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.<\/p>

14<\/small><\/span> David was the youngest. Now the three oldest followed Saul,<\/p>

15<\/small><\/span> but David went back and forth from Saul to tend his father's flock at Bethlehem.<\/p>

16<\/small><\/span> The Philistine came forward morning and evening for forty days and took his stand.<\/p>

17<\/small><\/span> Then Jesse said to David his son, \"Take now for your brothers an ephah of this roasted grain and these ten loaves and run to the camp to your brothers.<\/p>

18<\/small><\/span> \"Bring also these ten cuts of cheese to the commander of their thousand, and look into the welfare of your brothers, and bring back news of them.<\/p>

19<\/small><\/span> \"For Saul and they and all the men of Israel are in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.\"<\/p>

20<\/small><\/span> So David arose early in the morning and left the flock with a keeper and took the supplies and went as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to the circle of the camp while the army was going out in battle array shouting the war cry.<\/p>

21<\/small><\/span> Israel and the Philistines drew up in battle array, army against army.<\/p>

22<\/small><\/span> Then David left his baggage in the care of the baggage keeper, and ran to the battle line and entered in order to greet his brothers.<\/p>

23<\/small><\/span> As he was talking with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine from Gath named Goliath, was coming up from the army of the Philistines, and he spoke these same words; and David heard them.<\/p>

24<\/small><\/span> When all the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from him and were greatly afraid.<\/p>

25<\/small><\/span> The men of Israel said, \"Have you seen this man who is coming up? Surely he is coming up to defy Israel. And it will be that the king will enrich the man who kills him with great riches and will give him his daughter and make his father's house free in Israel.\"<\/p>

26<\/small><\/span> Then David spoke to the men who were standing by him, saying, \"What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should taunt the armies of the living God?\"<\/p>

27<\/small><\/span> The people answered him in accord with this word, saying, \"Thus it will be done for the man who kills him.\"<\/p>

28<\/small><\/span> Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger burned against David and he said, \"Why have you come down? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your insolence and the wickedness of your heart; for you have come down in order to see the battle.\"<\/p>

29<\/small><\/span> But David said, \"What have I done now? Was it not just a question?\"<\/p>

30<\/small><\/span> Then he turned away from him to another and said the same thing; and the people answered the same thing as before.<\/p>

31<\/small><\/span> When the words which David spoke were heard, they told them to Saul, and he sent for him.<\/p>

32<\/small><\/span> David said to Saul, \"Let no man's heart fail on account of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.\"<\/p>

33<\/small><\/span> Then Saul said to David, \"You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth while he has been a warrior from his youth.\"<\/p>

34<\/small><\/span> But David said to Saul, \"Your servant was tending his father's sheep. When a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock,<\/p>

35<\/small><\/span> I went out after him and attacked him, and rescued it from his mouth; and when he rose up against me, I seized him by his beard and struck him and killed him.<\/p>

36<\/small><\/span> \"Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has taunted the armies of the living God.\"<\/p>

37<\/small><\/span> And David said, \"The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.\" And Saul said to David, \"Go, and may the LORD be with you.\"<\/p>

38<\/small><\/span> Then Saul clothed David with his garments and put a bronze helmet on his head, and he clothed him with armor.<\/p>

39<\/small><\/span> David girded his sword over his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. So David said to Saul, \"I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.\" And David took them off.<\/p>

40<\/small><\/span> He took his stick in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in the shepherd's bag which he had, even in his pouch, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.<\/p>

41<\/small><\/span> Then the Philistine came on and approached David, with the shield-bearer in front of him.<\/p>

42<\/small><\/span> When the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, with a handsome appearance.<\/p>

43<\/small><\/span> The Philistine said to David, \"Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?\" And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.<\/p>

44<\/small><\/span> The Philistine also said to David, \"Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky and the beasts of the field.\"<\/p>

45<\/small><\/span> Then David said to the Philistine, \"You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin, but I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have taunted.<\/p>

46<\/small><\/span> \"This day the LORD will deliver you up into my hands, and I will strike you down and remove your head from you. And I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,<\/p>

47<\/small><\/span> and that all this assembly may know that the LORD does not deliver by sword or by spear; for the battle is the LORD'S and He will give you into our hands.\"<\/p>

48<\/small><\/span> Then it happened when the Philistine rose and came and drew near to meet David, that David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine.<\/p>

49<\/small><\/span> And David put his hand into his bag and took from it a stone and slung it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead. And the stone sank into his forehead, so that he fell on his face to the ground.<\/p>

50<\/small><\/span> Thus David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and he struck the Philistine and killed him; but there was no sword in David's hand.<\/p>

51<\/small><\/span> Then David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.<\/p><\/div>\n
