Joshua 10:4-6

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁴ ‘Come up and help me, and let us attack Gibeon; for it has made peace with Joshua and with the Israelites.’ ⁵ Then 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—gathered their forces, and went up with all their armies and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.

⁶ And the Gibeonites sent to Joshua at the camp in Gilgal, saying, ‘Do not abandon your servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us; for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country are gathered against us.’
