  The relativistic five-quark equations are found in the framework of the
dispersion relation technique. The solutions of these equations using the
method based on the extraction of leading singularities of the amplitudes are
obtained. The five-quark amplitudes for the low-lying pentaquarks are
calculated under the condition that flavor SU(3) symmetry holds. The poles of
five-quark amplitudes determine the masses of the lowest pentaquarks. The mass
spectra of pentaquarks which contain only light quarks are calculated. The
calculation of pentaquark amplitudes estimates the contributions of three
subamplitudes. The main contributions to the pentaquark amplitude are
determined by the subamplitudes, which include the meson states.
