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 I will setH7896 thy boundsH1366 from the RedH5488 seaH3220 even unto the seaH3220 of the PhilistinesH6430, and from the desertH4057 unto the riverH5104: for I will deliverH5414 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 into your handH3027; and thou shalt drive them outH1644 beforeH6440 thee.
Thou shalt makeH3772 no covenantH1285 with them, nor with their godsH430.
They shall not dwellH3427 in thy landH776, lest they make thee sinH2398 against me: for if thou serveH5647 their godsH430, it will surely be a snareH4170 unto thee.
The peopleH5971 shall hearH8085, and be afraidH7264: sorrowH2427 shall take holdH270 on the inhabitantsH3427 of PalestinaH6429.
ThenH227 the dukesH441 of EdomH123 shall be amazedH926; the mighty menH352 of MoabH4124, tremblingH7461 shall take holdH270 upon them; all the inhabitantsH3427 of CanaanH3667 shall melt awayH4127.
FearH367 and dreadH6343 shall fallH5307 upon them; by the greatnessH1419 of thine armH2220 they shall be as stillH1826 as a stoneH68; till thy peopleH5971 pass overH5674, O LORDH3068, till the peopleH5971 pass overH5674, whichH2098 thou hast purchasedH7069.
SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, When ye are passed overH5674 JordanH3383 into the landH776 of CanaanH3667;
And SatanH7854 answeredH6030 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, SkinH5785 for skinH5785, yea, all that a manH376 hath will he giveH5414 for his lifeH5315.
Then ye shall drive outH3423 all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 from beforeH6440 you, and destroyH6 all their picturesH4906, and destroyH6 all their moltenH4541 imagesH6754, and quite pluck downH8045 all their high placesH1116:
AndG2532 fearG5399+G575 notG3361 them whichG3588 killG615 the bodyG4983, butG1161 areG1410 notG3361 ableG1410 to killG615 the soulG5590: butG1161 ratherG3123 fearG5399 him whichG3588 is ableG1410 to destroyG622 bothG2532 soulG5590 andG2532 bodyG4983 inG1722 hellG1067.
But if ye will not drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 from beforeH6440 you; then it shall come to pass, that those which ye let remainH3498 of them shall be pricksH7899 in your eyesH5869, and thornsH6796 in your sidesH6654, and shall vexH6887 you in the landH776 wherein ye dwellH3427.
Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall doH6213 unto you, as I thoughtH1819 to doH6213 unto them.
When the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall bringH935 thee into the landH776 whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it, and hath cast outH5394 manyH7227 nationsH1471 beforeH6440 thee, the HittitesH2850, and the GirgashitesH1622, and the AmoritesH567, and the CanaanitesH3669, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, sevenH7651 nationsH1471 greaterH7227 and mightierH6099 than thou;
And when the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall deliverH5414 them beforeH6440 thee; thou shalt smiteH5221 them, and utterlyH2763 destroyH2763 them; thou shalt makeH3772 no covenantH1285 with them, nor shew mercyH2603 unto them:
But the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall deliverH5414 them unto theeH6440, and shall destroyH1949 them with a mightyH1419 destructionH4103, until they be destroyedH8045. {unto…: Heb. before thy face}
And he shall deliverH5414 their kingsH4428 into thine handH3027, and thou shalt destroyH6 their nameH8034 from under heavenH8064: there shall no manH376 be able to standH3320 beforeH6440 thee, until thou have destroyedH8045 them.
Thus shalt thou doH6213 unto all the citiesH5892 which are veryH3966 far offH7350 from thee, whichH2007 are not of the citiesH5892 of these nationsH1471.
But of the citiesH5892 of these peopleH5971, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 doth giveH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159, thou shalt save aliveH2421 nothing that breathethH5397:
But thou shalt utterlyH2763 destroyH2763 them; namely, the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, the CanaanitesH3669, and the PerizzitesH6522, the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983; as the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath commandedH6680 thee:
