(Some words not found in UHB: and,gathered together to,fight with Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) and,with Yisrael accord one(ms) )
The author is using a common expression of his culture, as one mouth, to mean “by unanimous agreement.” (All the kings said the same thing, that they would fight the Israelites, so it was as if together they only had one mouth.) If it would be clearer in your language, you could use an equivalent idiom or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “by unanimous agreement”
9:2 Chapter 10 provides a more complete description of these kings and their reasons for forming a coalition to fight . . . the Israelites.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
