Joshua 9:16 in Context — Joshua 9

14 E os homens de Israel tomaram de sua provisão do caminho, e não perguntaram à boca do SENHOR.

15 E Josué fez paz com eles, e estabeleceu com eles que lhes deixaria a vida: também os príncipes da congregação lhes juraram.

16 Passados três dias depois que fizeram com eles o concerto, ouviram como eram seus vizinhos, e que habitavam em meio deles.

17 E partiram-se os filhos de Israel, e ao terceiro dia chegaram a suas cidades: e suas cidades eram Gibeão, Quefira, Beerote, e Quiriate-Jearim.

18 E não os feriram os filhos de Israel, porquanto os príncipes da congregação lhes haviam jurado pelo SENHOR o Deus de Israel. E toda a congregação murmurava contra os príncipes.
