The king of Hazor heard about the destruction of the southern kings and he called surrounding kings to fight against Israel. Thousands of men, like the sands on the sea shore and very many horses and chariots camped at the waters of Merom.
God told Joshua not to be afraid they would destroy all of them and there chariots.
Joshua and his troops made a surprise attack and pounced on them the Israelites killed them all.
Joshua went back to Hazor and destroy the king and the city. Then they killed all the people in the surrounding cities but didn't destroy the cities. The soldiers were aloud to keep the cattle and goods for them selves.
Now all of Israel was controlled by Joshua.
