5 He called upon the Most High, the mighty one, when his enemies pressed in on him from every side, and the great Lord responded to him with hailstones of mighty power.
6 He rushed headlong against a nation in battle, and on a hill he destroyed those who opposed him, so that the nations might know how well-equipped he was, because his war was fought in the Lord's presence. Indeed, he was a follower of the mighty one.
7 In the days of Moses he performed acts of mercy, he and Caleb, Jephunneh's son. They opposed the congregation, restrained the people from sin, and put an end to their wicked grumbling.
