Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sends, and the five kings of the Amorites make war against Gibeon

예루살렘 왕 아도니세덱이 보내매 아모리 다섯 왕이 기브온에 대진하고 싸움

Joshua 10:1–5: Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem hears how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them. The text goes on, “they were very afraid, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.” Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sends to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying, “Come up to me and help me. Let’s strike Gibeon; for they have made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.” Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gather themselves together and go up, they and all their armies, and encamp against Gibeon, and make war against it.
