The sudden attack by the waters of Merom, and the chase to great Sidon

메롬 물가에서 졸지에 습격하여 큰 시돈까지 쫓음

Joshua 11:6–9: the LORD says to Joshua, “Don’t be afraid because of them; for tomorrow at this time, I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.” So Joshua comes suddenly, with all the warriors, against them by the waters of Merom, and attacks them. The LORD delivers them into the hand of Israel, and they strike them, and chase them to great Sidon, and to Misrephoth Maim, and to the valley of Mizpah eastward; they strike them until they leave them no one remaining. Joshua does to them as the LORD told him: he hamstrings their horses and burns their chariots with fire.
