Lalu orang-orang Gibeon itu menyuruh orang kepada Yosua, ke tempat perkemahan di Gilgal, mengatakan: "Jangan menarik tanganmu dari pada hamba-hambamu ini. Datanglah dengan segera kepada kami, lepaskanlah kami dan bantulah kami, sebab semua raja orang Amori, yang diam di pegunungan, telah bergabung melawan kami."
Tetapi orang Gibeon itu utusanlah kepada Yusak, ke tempat tentara di Gilgal, sembahnya: Jangan apalah tuanku lepaskan tangan tuanku dari pada patik, melainkan hendaklah tuanku bersegera-segera datang membantu akan patik dan melepaskan patik dari pada musuh, karena segala raja orang Amori yang duduk di pegunungan itu telah sefakat hendak menempuh patik.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal,.... Which some think they did when besieged, and not before, which showed their faith in the power of God, whom they now professed; but it is not likely that they should defer sending for help so long, since it is reasonable to suppose they might have heard of the design of the five kings against them; or that they should be able to send out messengers when surrounded on all sides; it may be better therefore to render the words, "had sent" m, which they did as soon as they heard of the preparations made by the five kings to war with them, and of their rendezvous at Jerusalem, and especially as soon as they had information of their march towards them:
saying, slack not thine hands from thy servants; they entreat that he would not neglect them, be indifferent to them, and delay to assist them, since they were his subjects; and were entitled to his protection:
come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us; they did not doubt, if he made haste and helped them, but they should be saved by him:
for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the mountains are gathered together against us. Jerusalem lay among mountains, and Hebron was in the hill country in Judea, see Psalms 125:2; and the other cities were doubtless in a like situation.
m וישלהו "sed miserant", Piscator; so Pool and Patrick.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The language reflects the urgency of the crisis. Accordingly Joshua made a forced march, accompanied only by his soldiers Joshua 10:7, and accomplished in a single night the distance from Gilgal to Gibeon (about 15 miles in a direct line), which on a former occasion had been a three days’ journey Joshua 9:17.
