Abantu b'i Yeruzalemu bashya ubwoba cyane, kuko Gibeyoni wari umujyi munini, umeze nk'umwe mu mijyi y'abami, kandi kuko wari munini kuruta Ayi, n'abagabo baho bose bari intwari. Nuko Adonisedeki umwami w'i Yeruzalemu yohereza ubutumwa kwa Hohamu umwami w'i Heburoni, na Piramu umwami w'i Yarimuti, na Yafiya umwami w'i Lakishi, na Debiri umwami wa Eguloni, arababwira ati: “Nimuze iwanjye mumfashe, maze dutere Gibeyoni, kuko wagiranye amahoro na Yozuwe n'Abisiraheli.” Nuko abo bami batanu b'Abamori—umwami w'i Yeruzalemu, uw'i Heburoni, uw'i Yarimuti, uw'i Lakishi n'uwa Eguloni—barishyira hamwe barazamuka n'ingabo zabo zose.
