‏ Joshua 10:10

10 The Lord routed ^{▼▼tn Or “caused to panic.”} them before Israel. Israel ^{▼▼tn 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”).} thoroughly defeated them ^{▼▼tn Heb “struck them down with a great striking down.”} at Gibeon. They chased them up the road to the pass ^{▼▼tn Or “ascent.”} of Beth Horon and struck them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah.
