Joshua 9:17-21
17And the children of IsraelH3478 journeyed, and cameH935 to their citiesH5892 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117; and their citiesH5892 were GibeonH1391, and Chephirah, and BeerothH881, and Kirjath-jearim.
18And the children of IsraelH3478 did not smite them, because the princesH5387 of the assemblyH5712 had swornH7650 unto them by Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478. Then all the assemblyH5712 murmured against the princesH5387.
19And all the princesH5387 saidH559 to all the assemblyH5712, We have swornH7650 unto them by Jehovah the 2GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and nowH6258 we may not touchH5060 them.
20This we will do to them, and let them liveH2421, lest wrathH7110 come upon us, because of the oathH7621 which we sworeH7650 unto them.
21And the princesH5387 saidH559 to them, Let them liveH2421. And they were hewers of woodH6086 and drawersH7579 of waterH4325 for all the assemblyH5712; as the princesH5387 had saidH559 to them.
