And it came to pass, when all the kingsH4428 which were on this sideH5676 JordanH3383, in the hillsH2022, and in the valleysH8219, and in all the coastsH2348 of the greatH1419 seaH3220 over againstH4136 LebanonH3844, the HittiteH2850, and the AmoriteH567, the CanaaniteH3669, the PerizziteH6522, the HiviteH2340, and the JebusiteH2983, heardH8085 thereof;
That they gatheredH6908 themselves togetherH3162, to fightH3898 with JoshuaH3091 and with IsraelH3478, with oneH259 accordH6310. {accord: Heb. mouth}
And when the inhabitantsH3427 of GibeonH1391 heardH8085 what JoshuaH3091 had doneH6213 unto JerichoH3405 and to AiH5857,
They did workH6213 wililyH6195, and wentH3212 and made as if they had been ambassadorsH6737, and tookH3947 oldH1087 sacksH8242 upon their assesH2543, and wineH3196 bottlesH4997, oldH1087, and rentH1234, and bound upH6887;
And oldH1087 shoesH5275 and cloutedH2921 upon their feetH7272, and oldH1087 garmentsH8008 upon them; and all the breadH3899 of their provisionH6718 was dryH3001 and mouldyH5350.
And they wentH3212 to JoshuaH3091 unto the campH4264 at GilgalH1537, and saidH559 unto him, and to the menH376 of IsraelH3478, We be comeH935 from a farH7350 countryH776: now therefore makeH3772 ye a leagueH1285 with us.
And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto the HivitesH2340, PeradventureH194 ye dwellH3427 amongH7130 us; and how shall we makeH3772 a leagueH1285 with you?
And they saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, We are thy servantsH5650. And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto them, Who are ye? and from whenceH370 comeH935 ye?
And they saidH559 unto him, From a veryH3966 farH7350 countryH776 thy servantsH5650 are comeH935 because of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430: for we have heardH8085 the fameH8089 of him, and all that he didH6213 in EgyptH4714,
And all that he didH6213 to the twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, that were beyondH5676 JordanH3383, to SihonH5511 kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809, and to OgH5747 kingH4428 of BashanH1316, which was at AshtarothH6252.
Wherefore our eldersH2205 and all the inhabitantsH3427 of our countryH776 spakeH559 to us, sayingH559, TakeH3947 victualsH6720 with youH3027 for the journeyH1870, and goH3212 to meetH7125 them, and sayH559 unto them, We are your servantsH5650: therefore now makeH3772 ye a leagueH1285 with us. {with you: Heb. in your hand}
This our breadH3899 we took hotH2525 for our provisionH6679 out of our housesH1004 on the dayH3117 we came forthH3318 to goH3212 unto you; but now, behold, it is dryH3001, and it is mouldyH5350:
And these bottlesH4997 of wineH3196, which we filledH4390, were newH2319; and, behold, they be rentH1234: and these our garmentsH8008 and our shoesH5275 are become oldH1086 by reason of the veryH3966 longH7230 journeyH1870.
And the menH582 tookH3947 of their victualsH6718, and askedH7592 not counsel at the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068. {the men…: or, they received the men by reason of their victuals}
And JoshuaH3091 madeH6213 peaceH7965 with them, and madeH3772 a leagueH1285 with them, to let them liveH2421: and the princesH5387 of the congregationH5712 swareH7650 unto them.
And it came to pass at the endH7097 of threeH7969 daysH3117 afterH310 they had madeH3772 a leagueH1285 with them, that they heardH8085 that they were their neighboursH7138, and that they dweltH3427 amongH7130 them.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 journeyedH5265, and cameH935 unto their citiesH5892 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117. Now their citiesH5892 were GibeonH1391, and ChephirahH3716, and BeerothH881, and KirjathjearimH7157.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 smoteH5221 them not, because the princesH5387 of the congregationH5712 had swornH7650 unto them by the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478. And all the congregationH5712 murmuredH3885 against the princesH5387.
But all the princesH5387 saidH559 unto all the congregationH5712, We have swornH7650 unto them by the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478: now therefore we mayH3201 not touchH5060 them.
This we will doH6213 to them; we will even let them liveH2421, lest wrathH7110 be upon us, because of the oathH7621 which we swareH7650 unto them.
And the princesH5387 saidH559 unto them, Let them liveH2421; but let them be hewersH2404 of woodH6086 and drawersH7579 of waterH4325 unto all the congregationH5712; as the princesH5387 had promisedH1696 them.
And JoshuaH3091 calledH7121 for them, and he spakeH1696 unto them, sayingH559, Wherefore have ye beguiledH7411 us, sayingH559, We are veryH3966 farH7350 from you; when ye dwellH3427 amongH7130 us?
Now therefore ye are cursedH779, and there shall none of you be freedH3772 from being bondmenH5650, and hewersH2404 of woodH6086 and drawersH7579 of waterH4325 for the houseH1004 of my GodH430. {none…: Heb. not be cut off from you}
And they answeredH6030 JoshuaH3091, and saidH559, Because it was certainlyH5046 toldH5046 thy servantsH5650, how that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 commandedH6680 his servantH5650 MosesH4872 to giveH5414 you all the landH776, and to destroyH8045 all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 from beforeH6440 you, therefore we were soreH3966 afraidH3372 of our livesH5315 becauseH6440 of you, and have doneH6213 this thingH1697.
And now, behold, weH2009 are in thine handH3027: as it seemethH5869 goodH2896 and rightH3477 unto thee to doH6213 unto us, doH6213.
And so didH6213 he unto them, and deliveredH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, that they slewH2026 them not.
And JoshuaH3091 madeH5414 them that dayH3117 hewersH2404 of woodH6086 and drawersH7579 of waterH4325 for the congregationH5712, and for the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, even unto this dayH3117, in the placeH4725 which he should chooseH977. {made: Heb. gave, or, delivered to be}

And thou shalt putH5414 in the breastplateH2833 of judgmentH4941 the UrimH224 and the ThummimH8550; and they shall be upon Aaron'sH175 heartH3820, when he goethH935 in beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: and AaronH175 shall bearH5375 the judgmentH4941 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 upon his heartH3820 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 continuallyH8548.
And he shall standH5975 beforeH6440 EleazarH499 the priestH3548, who shall askH7592 counsel for him after the judgmentH4941 of UrimH224 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: at his wordH6310 shall they go outH3318, and at his wordH6310 they shall come inH935, both he, and all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 with him, even all the congregationH5712.
Now afterH310 the deathH4194 of JoshuaH3091 it came to pass, that the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 askedH7592 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Who shall go upH5927 for us against the CanaanitesH3669 firstH8462, to fightH3898 against them?
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 aroseH6965, and went upH5927 to the houseH1004 of GodH430+H1008, and askedH7592 counsel of GodH430, and saidH559, WhichH4310 of us shall go upH5927 firstH8462 to the battleH4421 against the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144? And the LORDH3068 saidH559, JudahH3063 shall go up firstH8462.
And PhinehasH6372, the sonH1121 of EleazarH499, the sonH1121 of AaronH175, stoodH5975 beforeH6440 it in those daysH3117,) sayingH559, Shall I yet againH3254 go outH3318 to battleH4421 against the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 my brotherH251, or shall I ceaseH2308? And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Go upH5927; for to morrowH4279 I will deliverH5414 them into thine handH3027.
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto AhiahH281, Bring hitherH5066 the arkH727 of GodH430. For the arkH727 of GodH430 was at that timeH3117 with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And it came to pass, while SaulH7586 talkedH1696 unto the priestH3548, that the noiseH1995 that was in the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 wentH3212 onH1980 and increasedH7227: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the priestH3548, WithdrawH622 thine handH3027. {noise: or, tumult}
And he enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068 for him, and gaveH5414 him victualsH6720, and gaveH5414 him the swordH2719 of GoliathH1555 the PhilistineH6430.
And DavidH1732 knewH3045 that SaulH7586 secretly practisedH2790 mischiefH7451 against him; and he saidH559 to AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, Bring hitherH5066 the ephodH646.
Then saidH559 DavidH1732, O LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, thy servantH5650 hath certainlyH8085 heardH8085 that SaulH7586 seekethH1245 to comeH935 to KeilahH7084, to destroyH7843 the cityH5892 for my sake.
Will the menH1167 of KeilahH7084 deliver me upH5462 into his handH3027? will SaulH7586 come downH3381, as thy servantH5650 hath heardH8085? O LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I beseech thee, tellH5046 thy servantH5650. And the LORDH3068 saidH559, He will come downH3381.
Then saidH559 DavidH1732, Will the menH1167 of KeilahH7084 deliverH5462 me and my menH582 into the handH3027 of SaulH7586? And the LORDH3068 saidH559, They will deliver thee upH5462. {deliver: Heb. shut up}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbiatharH54 the priestH3548, Ahimelech'sH288 sonH1121, I pray thee, bring me hitherH5066 the ephodH646. And AbiatharH54 broughtH5066 thither the ephodH646 to DavidH1732.
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 at the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I pursueH7291 afterH310 this troopH1416? shall I overtakeH5381 them? And he answeredH559 him, PursueH7291: for thou shalt surelyH5381 overtakeH5381 them, and without failH5337 recoverH5337 all.
And it came to pass after thisH310, that DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I go upH5927 into anyH259 of the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063? And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, Go upH5927. And DavidH1732 saidH559, Whither shall I go upH5927? And he saidH559, Unto HebronH2275.
And DavidH1732 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Shall I go upH5927 to the PhilistinesH6430? wilt thou deliverH5414 them into mine handH3027? And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732, Go upH5927: for I will doubtlessH5414 deliverH5414 the PhilistinesH6430 into thine handH3027.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191 for his transgressionH4604 which he committedH4603 against the LORDH3068, even against the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he keptH8104 not, and also for askingH7592 counsel of one that had a familiar spiritH178, to enquireH1875 of it; {committed: Heb. transgressed}
And enquiredH1875 not of the LORDH3068: therefore he slewH4191 him, and turnedH5437 the kingdomH4410 unto DavidH1732 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448. {Jesse: Heb. Isai}
Then I proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685 there, at the riverH5104 of AhavaH163, that we might afflictH6031 ourselves beforeH6440 our GodH430, to seekH1245 of him a rightH3477 wayH1870 for us, and for our little onesH2945, and for all our substanceH7399.
TrustH982 in the LORDH3068 with all thine heartH3820; and leanH8172 not unto thine own understandingH998.
WoeH1945 to the rebelliousH5637 childrenH1121, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that takeH6213 counselH6098, but not of me; and that coverH5258 with a coveringH4541, but not of my spiritH7307, that they may addH5595 sinH2403 to sinH2403:
