Josué 10:5 Meaning and Commentary

Joshua 10:5

Therefore the five kings of the Amorites
For though they were chiefly Hittites that dwelt in Hebron, and Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem; yet as the Amorites were the most powerful people in the land, and had dispersed themselves in the several parts of it, and seem to have the greatest authority in it, they were all called Amorites, and perhaps the kings of those cities were of them, and set over them by them; so we find that the Gibeonites, who were Hivites, are said to be of the remnant of the Amorite, ( 2 Samuel 21:2 ) ;

the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the
king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together, and
went up, they, and all their hosts;
that is, to Jerusalem, the place of their rendezvous, and from thence they marched:

and encamped before Gibeon, and made war against it:
by besieging it, and attacking it in some of its forts.

4 Subid a m铆 y ayudadme, y ataquemos a Gaba贸n, porque ha hecho paz con Josu茅 y con los hijos de Israel.
5 Se reunieron, pues, los cinco reyes de los amorreos, el rey de Jerusal茅n, el rey de Hebr贸n, el rey de Jarmut, el rey de Laquis y el rey de Egl贸n, y subieron ellos con todos sus ej茅rcitos, y acamparon junto a Gaba贸n y lucharon contra ella.
6 Entonces los hombres de Gaba贸n enviaron mensaje a Josu茅 al campamento de Gilgal, diciendo: No abandones a tus siervos; sube r谩pidamente a nosotros, s谩lvanos y ay煤danos, porque todos los reyes de los amorreos que habitan en los montes se han reunido contra nosotros.
7 Y Josu茅 subi贸 de Gilgal, 茅l y toda la gente de guerra con 茅l, y todos los valientes guerreros.
