Joshua 9:11 in Context — Joshua 9

9 Ils lui répondirent: Tes serviteurs viennent d’un pays très éloigné, sur le renom de l’Éternel, ton Dieu; car nous avons entendu parler de lui, de tout ce qu’il a fait en Égypte,

10 et de la manière dont il a traité les deux rois des Amoréens au-delà du Jourdain, Sihon, roi de Hesbon, et Og, roi de Basan, qui était à Aschtaroth.

11 Et nos anciens et tous les habitants de notre pays nous ont dit: Prenez avec vous des provisions pour le voyage, allez au-devant d’eux, et vous leur direz: Nous sommes vos serviteurs, et maintenant faites alliance avec nous.

12 Voici notre pain: il était encore chaud quand nous en avons fait provision dans nos maisons, le jour où nous sommes partis pour venir vers vous, et maintenant il est sec et en miettes.

13 Ces outres à vin, que nous avons remplies toutes neuves, les voilà déchirées; nos vêtements et nos souliers se sont usés par l’excessive longueur de la marche.
