2 that they agathered together to fight with Joshua and Israel with one1 accord.
3 But when the inhabitants of aGibeon bheard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai,
4 they worked craftily, and went and1 pretended to be ambassadors. And they took old sacks on their donkeys, old wineskins torn and2 mended,
5 old and patched sandals on their feet, and old garments on themselves; and all the bread of their provision was dry and moldy.
6 And they went to Joshua, ato the camp at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, “We have come from a far country; now therefore, make a1 covenant with us.”
