Joshua 9:18-21
18But the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 did not 1attackH5221 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. 19But allH3605 the leadersH5387 saidH559 to the wholeH3605 congregationH5712, “We have swornH7650 to them by the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and nowH6258 we cannotH3201H3808 touchH5060 them. 20ThisH2088 we will doH6213 to them, even let them liveH2421, so that wrathH7110 will not be on us because of the oathH7621 whichH834 we sworeH7650 to them.” 21So the leadersH5387 saidH559 to them, “Let them liveH2421.” And they becameH1961 2gatherersH2404 of firewoodH6086 and 3labor to drawH7579 waterH4325 for the wholeH3605 congregationH5712, justH3512 asH3512 the leadersH5387 had spokenH1696 to them.
