Joshua 9:19-21

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁹ And all the princes say unto all the company, `We -- we have sworn to them by Jehovah, God of Israel; and now, we are not able to come against them;

²⁰ this we do to them, and have kept them alive, and wrath is not upon us, because of the oath which we have sworn to them.'

²¹ And the princes say unto them, `They live, and are hewers of wood and drawers of water for all the company, as the princes spake to them.'
