Joshua 9:17 in Context — Joshua 9

15 Josué fit la paix avec eux, et conclut une alliance par laquelle il devait leur laisser la vie, et les chefs de l’assemblée le leur jurèrent.

16 Trois jours après la conclusion de cette alliance, les enfants d’Israël apprirent qu’ils étaient leurs voisins, et qu’ils habitaient au milieu d’eux.

17 Car les enfants d’Israël partirent, et arrivèrent à leurs villes le troisième jour; leurs villes étaient Gabaon, Kephira, Beéroth et Kirjath-Jearim.

18 Ils ne les frappèrent point, parce que les chefs de l’assemblée leur avaient juré par l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël, de leur laisser la vie. Mais toute l’assemblée murmura contre les chefs.

19 Et tous les chefs dirent à toute l’assemblée: Nous leur avons juré par l’Éternel, le Dieu d’Israël, et maintenant nous ne pouvons les toucher.
