OET (OET-RV) “Come here and help me. We’ll attack Gibeon because they’ve made peace with Yehoshua and the Israelis.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 10:1–27 Five Canaanite Kings attacked the Israelites

The kings of five Canaanite towns joined together to fight against Gibeon. Because the Israelites had a peace treaty with Gibeon, they helped them in their fight. Yahweh helped the Israelites by sending down hailstones on the Canaanites, and by causing the sun to stop moving so that the Israelites could continue their victory. The five Canaanite kings were captured and put to death.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Israel defeated the Canaan group

The sun stood still

10:4a

“Come up and help me. We will attack Gibeon,

Come up and help me: The two clauses Come up and help me indicate that the king of Jerusalem asked these four kings to join with him in battle against the Gibeonites. The word Come up is used because Jerusalem was at a higher elevation than the other four towns. In languages that do not keep track of elevation, it may be more natural to say “come to me.”

We will attack Gibeon: The clause We will attack Gibeon indicates that the king of Jerusalem asked the other four kings to gather their armies together with his and attack the people of Gibeon.

Here is another way to translate this phrase:

Come and help me attack Gibeon (GNT)

10:4b

because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”

because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites: The clause they have made peace states the reason the king of Jerusalem wanted to attack the town of Gibeon. The Gibeonites had a treaty with the Israelites.

Here is another way to translate this phrase:

because its people have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites (GNT)

General Comment on 10:4a-b

It may be more natural in some languages to change the order of 4a and 4b, and state the reason first, as in CEV:

4bThe Gibeonites have made a peace treaty with Joshua and the Israelites. 4aCome and help me attack Gibeon! (CEV)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

עֲלֽוּ

come_up

As the Introduction to this chapter discusses, the expression Come up indicates that these kings and their armies would have to travel upward in elevation in order to reach Jerusalem. If your language does not mark travel expressions for elevation, you could shorten such expressions here and throughout this chapter. Alternate translation: [Come]

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

וְ⁠נַכֶּ֖ה אֶת־גִּבְע֑וֹן כִּֽי־הִשְׁלִ֥ימָה אֶת־יְהוֹשֻׁ֖עַ וְ⁠אֶת־בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל

and,let_us_attack DOM Giⱱˊōn that/for/because/then/when made_peace DOM Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and=DOM sons_of Yisrael

If it would be more natural in your language, you could reverse the order of these phrases, since the second phrase gives the reason for the result that the first phrase describes. Alternate translation: [because Gibeon has made peace with Joshua and with the sons of Israel, let us strike it]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

10:1-43 Gibeon and its neighboring cities occupied a plateau north of Jerusalem (see study note on 7:2). With Gibeon now allied to Israel, control of the plateau and of the central hill country in the vicinity of Gibeon belonged to Israel. Throughout history, whoever has controlled the plateau has, in general, also controlled the hill country. The Canaanite kings had to conquer Gibeon or their cause was lost.
