Joshua 10:2 in Context — Joshua 10

1 E quando Adoni-Zedeque rei de Jerusalém ouviu que Josué havia tomado a Ai, e que a haviam assolado, (como havia feito a Jericó e a seu rei, assim fez a Ai e a seu rei;) e que os moradores de Gibeão fizeram paz com os israelitas, e que estavam entre eles;

2 Tiveram muito grande temor; porque Gibeão era uma grande cidade, como uma das cidades reais, e maior que Ai, e todos os seus homens fortes.

3 Enviou, pois, a dizer Adoni-Zedeque rei de Jerusalém, a Hoão rei de Hebrom, e a Pirã rei de Jeremote, e a Jafia rei de Laquis, e a Debir rei de Eglom:

4 Subi a mim, e ajudai-me, e combatamos a Gibeão: porque fez paz com Josué e com os filhos de Israel.
