14 There was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD listened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.

18 Joshua said, “Roll large stones to cover the cave’s entrance, and set men by it to guard them;
19 but don’t stay there. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Don’t allow them to enter into their cities; for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
