Joshua 10:5-10

New International Version

⁵ Then the five kings^(A) of the Amorites^(B)—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon—joined forces. They moved up with all their troops and took up positions against Gibeon and attacked it.

⁶ The Gibeonites then sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal:^(C) “Do not abandon your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, because all the Amorite kings from the hill country have joined forces against us.”

⁷ So Joshua marched up from Gilgal with his entire army,^(D) including all the best fighting men. ⁸ The Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid^(E) of them; I have given them into your hand.^(F) Not one of them will be able to withstand you.”^(G)

⁹ After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua took them by surprise. ¹⁰ The Lord threw them into confusion^(H) before Israel,^(I) so Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely at Gibeon.^(J) Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Horon^(K) and cut them down all the way to Azekah^(L) and Makkedah.^(M)
