Joshua 9:18-20

18But the people of Israel did not attack them, because the leaders of the congregation had sworn to them by the Lord, the God of Israel. Then all the congregation murmured against the leaders.

19But all the leaders said to all the congregation, "We have sworn to them by the Lord, the God of Israel, and now we may not touch them.

20This we will do to them: let them live, lest wrath be upon us, because of the oath that we swore to them."
