Joshua 9:25-27

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

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 people of Israel; and they did not kill them. ²⁷ But Joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation and for the altar of the Lord, to continue to this day, in the place which he should choose.
