¹² So the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel. On that day Joshua spoke to the Lord while the people of Israel were listening. He said, "Sun, stand still over Gibeon. Moon, stand still over the Valley of Aijalon." ¹³ So the sun stood still. The moon stopped. They didn't move again until the nation won the battle over its enemies.
