Joshua 9:24-26

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁴ They answered Joshua, Because it was surely told your servants that the Lord your God commanded His servant Moses to give you all the land and to destroy all the land’s inhabitants from before you. So we feared greatly for our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

²⁵ And now, behold, we are in your hand; do as it seems good and right in your sight to do to us.

²⁶ So he did to them, and delivered them out of the hand of the Israelites, so that they did not kill them.
