Joshua 9:20 in Context — Joshua 9
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.
19 Mas todos os príncipes responderam a toda a congregação: Nós lhes juramos pelo SENHOR Deus de Israel; portanto, agora não lhes podemos tocar.
20 Isto faremos com eles: lhes deixaremos viver, para que não venha ira sobre nós por causa do juramento que lhes fizemos.
21 E os príncipes lhes disseram: Vivam; mas sejam lenhadores e carregadores de água para toda a congregação, como os príncipes lhes disseram.
22 E chamando-os Josué, lhes falou dizendo: Por que nos enganastes, dizendo, Habitamos muito longe de vós; uma vez que morais em meio de nós?
