Therefore the five
kings of the
Amorites, the
king of Jerusalem, the
king of
Hebron, the
king of Jarmuth, the
king of
Lachish, the
king of
Eglon, gathered themselves together, and went up, they and all their hosts, and
encamped before
Gibeon, and made war against it.
So the five
kings of the
Amorites—the
kings of Jerusalem,
Hebron, Jarmuth,
Lachish, and
Eglon—joined forces and advanced with all their armies. They camped before
Gibeon and made war against it.
And the men of
Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to
Gilgal, saying,
Slack not thy hand from thy servants; come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us: for all the
kings of the
Amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together against us.
Then the men of
Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at
Gilgal: “Do not
abandon your servants. Come quickly and save us! Help us, because all the
kings of the
Amorites from the hill country have joined forces against us.”
But these five
kings fled, and
hid themselves in a cave at Makkedah.
Now the five kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
And it was told Joshua, saying, The five
kings are found
hid in a cave at Makkedah.
And Joshua was informed: “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”
Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out those five kings unto me out of the cave.
Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me.”
And they did so, and brought forth those five
kings unto him out of the cave, the
king of Jerusalem, the
king of
Hebron, the
king of Jarmuth, the
king of
Lachish, and the
king of
Eglon.
So they brought the five
kings out of the cave—the
kings of Jerusalem,
Hebron, Jarmuth,
Lachish, and
Eglon.
And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the captains of the men of war which went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.
When they had brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned all the men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had accompanied him, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So the commanders came forward and put their feet on their necks.
And afterward Joshua
smote them, and
slew them, and
hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.

And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and
smote it with the edge of the sword, and the
king thereof he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain: and he did to the
king of Makkedah as he did unto the
king of
Jericho.
On that day Joshua captured Makkedah and put it to the sword, along with its
king. He devoted to destruction
everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. So he did to the
king of Makkedah as he had done to the
king of
Jericho.
And the LORD delivered it also, and the
king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he
smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain in it; but did unto the
king thereof as he did unto the
king of
Jericho.
And the LORD also delivered that city and its
king into the hand of Israel, and Joshua put all the people to the sword, leaving no survivors. And he did to the
king of
Libnah as he had done to the
king of
Jericho.
Then Horam
king of
Gezer came up to help
Lachish; and Joshua
smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.
At that time Horam
king of
Gezer went to help
Lachish, but Joshua struck him down along with his people, leaving no survivors.
And they took it, and
smote it with the edge of the sword, and the
king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to
Eglon; but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein.
They captured it and put to the sword its
king, all its villages, and all the people. Joshua left no survivors, just as he had done at
Eglon; he devoted to destruction
Hebron and
everyone in it.
And he took it, and the
king thereof, and all the cities thereof; and they
smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to
Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the
king thereof; as he had done also to
Libnah, and to her
king.
And they captured Debir, its
king, and all its villages. They put them to the sword and devoted to destruction
everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. Joshua did to Debir and its
king as he had done to
Hebron and as he had done to
Libnah and its
king.
So Joshua
smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the
vale, and of the springs, and all their
kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded.
So Joshua conquered the whole region—the hill country, the Negev, the foothills, and the slopes, together with all their kings—leaving no survivors. He devoted to destruction everything that breathed, just as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded.
And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the LORD God of Israel fought for Israel.
And because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel, Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign.

Dor on the west,
to the
kings of the north in the mountains, in the Arabah south of Chinnereth, in the foothills, and in Naphoth-
dor to the west;
And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and
chariots very many.
So these
kings came out with all their armies, a multitude as numerous as the sand on the
seashore, along with a great number of horses and
chariots.
And when all these
kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of
Merom, to fight against Israel.
All these
kings joined forces and
encamped at the waters of
Merom to fight against Israel.
And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and
smote the
king thereof with the sword: for Hazor
beforetime was the head of all those
kingdoms.

kings, and all the

kings of
Midian.
So
Gideon said to the men of Succoth, “Please give my troops some bread, for they are exhausted, and I am still pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, the
kings of
Midian.”

kings of
Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and
discomfited all the host.

Gideon pursued and captured these two
kings of

Tabor?” “Men like you,” they answered, “each one resembling the son of a
king.”

king over them; and they said unto the olive tree, Reign thou over us.

And the
bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye
anoint me
king over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the
bramble, and
devour the cedars of
Lebanon.
But the thornbush replied, ‘If you really are
anointing me as
king over you, come and find refuge in my shade. But if not, may fire come out of the thornbush and
consume the cedars of
Lebanon.’
Now therefore, if ye have done truly and
sincerely, in that ye have made
Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him according to the deserving of his hands;
Now if you have acted faithfully and
honestly in making
Abimelech king, if you have done well by Jerubbaal and his family, and if you have done to him as he deserves—
And ye are risen up against my father’s house this day, and have slain his sons,
threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made

And
Jephthah sent messengers unto the
king of the children of
Ammon, saying, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me to fight in my land?
Then
Jephthah sent messengers to the
king of the
Ammonites, saying, “What do you have against me that you have come to fight against my land?”
And the
king of the children of
Ammon answered unto the messengers of
Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from
Arnon even unto
Jabbok, and unto Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again
peaceably.
The
king of the
Ammonites answered
Jephthah’s messengers, “When Israel came up out of Egypt, they seized my land, from the
Arnon to the
Jabbok and all the way to the Jordan. Now, therefore, restore it
peaceably.”
And
Jephthah sent messengers again unto the
king of the children of
Ammon:
Then Israel sent messengers unto the
king of
Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land: but the
king of
Edom would not
hearken thereto. And in like manner they sent unto the
king of Moab: but he would not consent: and Israel abode in Kadesh.
Then Israel sent messengers to the
king of
Edom, saying, ‘Please let us pass through your land,’ but the
king of
Edom would not
listen. They also sent messengers to the

Amorites, who ruled in

contend with Israel or fight against them?
In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
In those days there was no
king in Israel;
everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
In those days there was no king in Israel: and in those days the tribe of the Danites sought them an inheritance to dwell in; for unto that day all their inheritance had not fallen unto them among the tribes of Israel.
In those days there was no king in Israel, and the tribe of the Danites was looking for territory to occupy. For up to that time they had not come into an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.
And it came to pass in those days, when there was no
king in Israel, that there was a certain
Levite sojourning on the side of mount Ephraim, who took to him a

king in Israel, a
Levite who lived in the remote hill country of Ephraim took for himself a
concubine from
Bethlehem in Judah.
In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes.

king in Israel;

The
adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he
thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his
king, and
exalt the horn of his
anointed.
Those who
oppose the LORD will be
shattered. He will
thunder from heaven against them. The LORD will judge the ends of the earth and will give power to His
king. He will
exalt the horn of His
anointed.”
And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
“Look,” they said, “you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now
appoint a
king to judge us like all the other nations.”
But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
But when they said, “Give us a king to judge us,” their demand was displeasing in the sight of Samuel; so he prayed to the LORD.
And the LORD said unto Samuel,
Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
And the LORD said to Samuel, “
Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you. For it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected Me as their
king.
Now therefore
hearken unto their voice:
howbeit yet
protest solemnly unto them, and
shew them the manner of the
king that shall reign over them.
Now
listen to them, but you must solemnly
warn them and show them the manner of the
king who will reign over them.”
And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
So Samuel spoke all the words of the LORD to the people who were asking him for a king.
And he said, This will be the manner of the
king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and
appoint them for himself, for his
chariots, and to be his
horsemen; and some shall run before his
chariots.
He said, “This will be the manner of the
king who will reign over you: He will take your sons and
appoint them to his own
chariots and horses, to run in front of his
chariots.
And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
When that day comes, you will
beg for relief from the
king you have chosen, but the LORD will not answer you on that day.”
Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said,
Nay; but we will have a
king over us;
Nevertheless, the people refused to
listen to Samuel. “No!” they said. “We must have a
king over us.
That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to judge us, to go out before us, and to fight our battles.”
And the LORD said to Samuel,
Hearken unto their voice, and make them a
king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.
“
Listen to their voice,” the LORD said to Samuel. “
Appoint a
king for them.” Then Samuel told the men of Israel, “
Everyone must go back to his city.”
And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the
asses were found. But of the matter of the
kingdom,
whereof Samuel spake, he told him not.
And Saul replied, “He
assured us that the
donkeys had been found.” But Saul did not tell his uncle what Samuel had said about the
kingship.
And said unto the children of Israel, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all
kingdoms, and of them that
oppressed you:
and said to the Israelites, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I brought Israel up out of Egypt, and I
rescued you from the hands of the Egyptians and of all the
kingdoms that
oppressed you.’
