Joshua 9:9-11

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁹ They answered him, “We came from a country very far away because the Lord your God has become famous. We heard stories about him and everything he did in Egypt. ¹⁰ We also heard everything he did to the two kings of the Amorites east of the Jordan, King Sihon of Heshbon and King Og of Bashan in Ashtaroth. ¹¹ Our leaders and everyone who lives in our country told us, ‘Take what you need for the trip, and go meet them. Tell them, “We’re at your mercy. Make a treaty with us right now.” ’
