Joshua 9:2

2 They formed an alliance to fight Joshua and Israel.

Joshua 9:2 In-Context

1 All the kings on the west side of the Jordan heard about this, including those in the highlands, the lowlands, and along the entire coast of the Mediterranean Sea toward Lebanon. They were Hittites and Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
2 They formed an alliance to fight Joshua and Israel.
3 In contrast, when the population of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai,
4 they acted cleverly. They set out pretending to be messengers. They took worn-out sacks for their donkeys and worn-out wineskins that were split and mended.
5 They had worn-out, patched sandals on their feet and were wearing worn-out clothes. All the bread in their supplies was dry and crumbly.
