Joshua 9:3-9

3And whenH834 the inhabitantsH3427 of GibeonH1391 heardH8085 what JoshuaH3091 had done to JerichoH3405 and to Ai,

4then they alsoH1571 actedH6213 with craft, and they went prepared as on a journey, and tookH3947 old sacksH8242 upon their asses, and wine-flasks, old and rent and tied up;

5and old and patched sandalsH5275 upon their feetH7272, and old garmentsH8008 upon them; and all the breadH3899 of their provision wasH1961 dryH3001 [and] mouldy.

6And they wentH935 to JoshuaH3091 unto the campH4264 at GilgalH1537, and saidH559 to him, and to the menH376 of IsraelH3478, From a farH7350 country are we comeH935; and nowH6258 makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with us.

7And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 to the HiviteH2340, PerhapsH194 thou dwellest in the midstH7130 of us, and howH349 should I makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with thee?

8And they saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, We are thy servantsH5650. And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to them, Who are ye? and from whence comeH935 ye?

9And they saidH559 to him, From a veryH3966 farH7350 country are thy servantsH5650 comeH935, because of the nameH8034 of Jehovah thy 1GodH430; for we have heardH8085 the fame of him, and all that he did in EgyptH4714,
