gibeon_n and_o rescue_v we_o from_o the_o power_n of_o hell_n and_o death_n joshua_n fight_v but_o god_n discomfit_v the_o amorites_n the_o praise_n be_v to_o the_o workman_n not_o the_o instrument_n neither_o do_v god_n slay_v they_o only_o with_o ioshua_n sword_n but_o with_o his_o own_o hailstone_n that_o now_o the_o amorites_n may_v see_v both_o these_o revenge_n come_v from_o one_o hand_n these_o bullet_n of_o god_n do_v not_o wound_v but_o kill_v it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o these_o five_o king_n fly_v they_o may_v soon_o run_v away_o from_o their_o hope_n never_o from_o their_o horror_n if_o they_o look_v behind_o there_o be_v the_o sword_n of_o israel_n which_o they_o dare_v not_o turn_v upon_o because_o god_n have_v take_v their_o hart_n from_o they_o before_o their_o

enemy_n but_o israel_n they_o may_v hope_v to_o run_v away_o from_o death_n since_o fear_n be_v a_o better_a footman_n then_o desire_v of_o revenge_n but_o now_o whither-soev_a they_o run_v heaven_n will_v be_v above_o their_o head_n and_o now_o all_o the_o reason_n that_o be_v leave_v they_o in_o this_o confusion_n of_o their_o thought_n be_v to_o wish_v themselves_o well_o dead_a there_o be_v no_o evasion_n where_o god_n intend_v a_o revenge_n we_o man_n have_v devise_v to_o imitate_v these_o instrument_n of_o death_n and_o send_v forth_o deadly_a bullet_n out_o of_o a_o cloud_n of_o smoke_n wherein_o yet_o as_o there_o be_v much_o danger_n so_o much_o uncertainty_n but_o this_o god_n that_o discharge_v his_o ordinance_n from_o heaven_n direct_v every_o shot_n to_o a_o head_n and_o can_v as_o easy_o kill_v as_o shoot_v it_o be_v a_o fearful_a thing_n to_o fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o the_o live_a god_n he_o have_v mo_z way_n of_o vengeance_n than_o he_o have_v creature_n the_o same_o heaven_n that_o send_v forth_o water_n to_o the_o old_a world_n fire_n to_o the_o sodomite_n lightning_n and_o thunderbolt_n to_o the_o egyptian_n send_v out_o hailstone_n to_o

can_v run_v out_o of_o the_o world_n even_o there_o shall_v we_o find_v his_o revenge_n far_o great_a be_v it_o not_o miracle_n enough_o that_o god_n do_v brain_n their_o adversary_n from_o heaven_n but_o that_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n must_v stand_v still_o in_o heaven_n be_v it_o not_o enough_o that_o the_o amorites_n fly_v but_o that_o the_o great_a planet_n of_o heaven_n must_v stay_v their_o own_o course_n to_o witness_v and_o wonder_v at_o the_o discomfiture_n for_o he_o which_o give_v they_o both_o be_v and_o motion_n to_o bid_v they_o stand_v still_o it_o seem_v no_o difficulty_n although_o the_o rareness_n will_v deserve_v admiration_n but_o for_o a_o man_n to_o command_v the_o chief_a star_n of_o heaven_n by_o who_o influence_n he_o live_v as_o the_o centurion_n will_v do_v his_o servant_n sun_n stay_v in_o gibeon_n and_o moon_n stand_v still_o in_o aialon_n it_o be_v more_o than_o a_o wonder_n it_o be_v not_o joshua_n but_o his_o faith_n that_o do_v this_o

which_o joshua_n aim_v at_o he_o know_v that_o all_o the_o world_n must_v needs_o be_v witness_n of_o that_o which_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n stand_v still_o to_o see_v have_v he_o respect_v but_o the_o slaughter_n of_o the_o amorites_n he_o know_v the_o hailstone_n can_v do_v that_o alone_o the_o sun_n need_v not_o stand_v still_o to_o direct_v that_o cloud_n to_o persecute_v they_o but_o the_o glory_n of_o the_o slaughter_n be_v seek_v by_o joshua_n that_o he_o may_v send_v that_o up_o whence_o those_o hailstone_n and_o that_o victory_n come_v all_o the_o earth_n may_v see_v the_o sun_n and_o moon_n all_o can_v not_o see_v the_o cloud_n of_o hail_n which_o because_o of_o that_o heavy_a burden_n fly_v but_o low_o that_o all_o nation_n may_v know_v the_o same_o hand_n

the_o sun_n and_o moon_n in_o heaven_n god_n never_o get_v himself_o so_o much_o honour_n by_o one_o day_n work_n among_o the_o heathen_a and_o when_o be_v it_o more_o fit_n then_o now_o when_o five_o
