Joshua 10 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
Day the Sun Stood Still
1 WHICH things when Adonisedec king of Jerusalem had heard, to wit, that Josue had taken Hai, and had subverted it (for as he had done to Jericho and the king thereof, so did he to Hai and their king) and that the Gabaonites were fled to Israel, and were their confederates,
2 he was sore afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the kingly cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all their men of war most valiant.
3 Therefore Adonisedec king of Jerusalem sent to Oham king of Hebron, and to Pharam king of Jerimoth, to Japhia also king of Lachis, and to Dabir king of Eglon, saying:
4 Come up to me, and bring aid, that we may overcome Gabaon, because it revolted to Josue, and to the children of Israel.
5 Therefore the five kings of the Amorrhites being assembled went up: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon, together with their hosts, & camped about Gabaon, assaulting it.
