Joshua 9:5 in Context — Joshua 9

3 Les habitants de Gabaon, de leur côté, lorsqu’ils apprirent de quelle manière Josué avait traité Jéricho et Aï,

4 eurent recours à la ruse, et se mirent en route avec des provisions de voyage. Ils prirent de vieux sacs pour leurs ânes, et de vieilles outres à vin déchirées et recousues,

5 ils portaient à leurs pieds de vieux souliers raccommodés, et sur eux de vieux vêtements; et tout le pain qu’ils avaient pour nourriture était sec et en miettes.

6 Ils allèrent auprès de Josué au camp de Guilgal, et ils lui dirent, ainsi qu’à tous ceux d’Israël: Nous venons d’un pays éloigné, et maintenant faites alliance avec nous.

7 Les hommes d’Israël répondirent à ces Héviens: Peut-être que vous habitez au milieu de nous, et comment ferions-nous alliance avec vous?
