Joshua:9:9-13

*
And they said unto him ,
From a very far country thy servants are come because of the name of the LORD thy God :
for we have heard the fame of him ,
and all that he did in Egypt ,
*
And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites ,
that were beyond Jordan ,
to Sihon king of Heshbon ,
and to Og king of Bashan ,
which was at Ashtaroth .
*
Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spake to us ,
saying ,
Take victuals with you for the journey ,
and go to meet them ,
and say unto them ,
We are your servants :
therefore now make ye a league with us .
*
This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you ;
but now ,
behold ,
it is dry ,
and it is mouldy :
*
And these bottles of wine ,
which we filled ,
were new ;
and ,
behold ,
they be rent :
and these our garments and our shoes are become old by reason of the very long journey .
