Joshua 9:25-27

New Catholic Bible

²⁵ So therefore, we are in your hands. Do whatever you consider to be right to us.” ²⁶ And so this is what he did to them: he rescued them out of the hands of the Israelites so that they did not kill them, ²⁷ but Joshua established them that day as the ones who would cut firewood and draw water for the assembly and for the altar of the Lord in the place that he would choose, which they still do today.
