Where Merom is mentioned
Joshua 11:5–8
5 All these kings joined forces and encamped at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
6 Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for by this time tomorrow I will deliver all of them slain before Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn up their chariots.”
7 So by the waters of Merom, Joshua and his whole army came upon them suddenly and attacked them,
8 and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who struck them down and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, leaving no survivors.
