Joshua 9:14-18

14So the menH376 of Israel tookH3947 someH4480 of their provisionsH6718, and 1did not askH7592 for the 2counselH6310 of the LordH3068. 15And 3JoshuaH3091 madeH6213 peaceH7965 with them and madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with them, to let them liveH2421; and the leadersH5387 of the congregationH5712 sworeH7650 an oath to them.

16However, it cameH1961 aboutH1961 at the endH7097 of threeH7969 daysH3117 afterH310 they had madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with them, that they heardH8085 that they were neighborsH7138 and that they were livingH3427 4withinH7130 their land. 17Then the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 setH5265 outH5265 and cameH935 to their citiesH5892 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117. Now their citiesH5892 were 5GibeonH1391, ChephirahH3716, BeerothH881, and Kiriath-jearimH7157. 18But the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 did not 6attackH5221 them becauseH3588 the leadersH5387 of the congregationH5712 had swornH7650 to them by the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. And the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 grumbledH3885 againstH5921 the leadersH5387.
