Joshua 10:4New Messianic Version BibleCome up unto me, and help me, that we may strike Giv’on [Hill City]: for it has made peace with Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] and with the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]. See the chapter |
Now it came to pass, when Adoni-Tzedek [My lord is Righteous] king of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] had heard how Y’hoshua [Yehovah is Salvation] had taken ‘Ai [Heap of Ruins], and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Yericho [Its Moon] and her king, so he had done to ‘Ai [Heap of Ruins] and her king; and how the inhabitants of Giv’on [Hill City] had made peace with Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], and were among them;
Therefore the five kings of the Emori [Highlanders], the king of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], the king of Hevron [Seat of Association], the king of Yarmut [Heights], the king of Lakhish [Invincible], the king of ‘Eglon [Calf-like], gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and encamped before Giv’on [Hill City], and made war against it.
