rotherham@Joshua:1:2 @ Moses my servant, is dead, Now, therefore, arise, pass over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, into the land which I am giving unto themunto the sons of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:1:5 @ No man shall stand before thee, all the days of thy life, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee, I will not fail thee, neither will I forsake thee.

rotherham@Joshua:1:6 @ Be firm and bold, for, thou, shalt cause this people to inherit the land which I sware unto their fathers, to give unto them.

rotherham@Joshua:1:7 @ Only be very firm and bold, taking heed to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded thee, do not turn aside therefrom, to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper, whithersoever thou goest.

rotherham@Joshua:1:8 @ This scroll of the law must not cease out of thy mouth, but thou must talk to thyself therein, day and night, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all that is written therein, for, then, shalt thou make thy way prosperous, and, then, shalt thou have good success.

rotherham@Joshua:1:9 @ Have I not commanded thee, Be firm and bold, do not start nor be dismayed, for, with thee, is Yahweh thy God, whithersoever thou goest?

rotherham@Joshua:1:11 @ Pass ye through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying: Make ready for yourselves, provisions, for, in three days more, are ye to pass over this Jordan, to go in and possess the land which Yahweh your God is giving you, to possess.

rotherham@Joshua:1:13 @ Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, Yahweh your God, is granting you rest, and doth give you this land.

rotherham@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses hath given you over the Jordan, but, ye, shall pass over, armed, before your brethren, all ye mighty men of valour, and shall help them;

rotherham@Joshua:1:15 @ until that Yahweh shall grant rest unto your brethren, as unto you, so shall, they also, possess the land which Yahweh your God giveth them, then shall ye return unto the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of Yahweh hath given you over the Jordan, towards the rising of the sun.

rotherham@Joshua:1:18 @ Any man who shall rebel against thy bidding, and not hearken unto thy words in all that thou shalt command him, shall be put to death, only be firm and bold.

rotherham@Joshua:2:3 @ So the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come in unto thee who have entered thy house, for, to search out all the land, have they come.

rotherham@Joshua:2:5 @ and it came to pass, as the gate was about to be shut in the darkness, that, the men, went out, I know not whither the men went, pursue them quickly for ye shall overtake them.

rotherham@Joshua:2:6 @ But, she, had taken them up to the roof, and concealed them with the stalks of flax which she had laid in order for herself upon the roof.

rotherham@Joshua:2:7 @ So, the men, pursued them by way of the Jordan unto the fords, the gate being shut as soon as they who pursued them had gone forth.

rotherham@Joshua:2:9 @ and said unto the men, I know that Yahweh hath given unto you the land, and that the terror of you hath fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land, have melted away, from before you.

rotherham@Joshua:2:10 @ For we have heard how Yahweh, dried up, the waters of the Red Sea from before you, when ye came forth out of Egypt, and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan unto Sihon and unto Og, whom ye devoted to destruction;

rotherham@Joshua:2:11 @ and, when we heard, then did our heart melt, and there rose up no longer any spirit in any man because of you, for, as for Yahweh your God, he, is Godin the heavens above, and upon the earth beneath.

rotherham@Joshua:2:12 @ Now, therefore I pray you, swear unto me by Yahweh, since I have dealt with you in lovingkindness, that, ye also, will deal with the house of my father in lovingkindness, and will give me a token of faithfulness,

rotherham@Joshua:2:15 @ And she let them down with a cord through the window, for, her house, was within the wall of the rampart, and, within the rampart, she was dwelling.

rotherham@Joshua:2:18 @ Lo! when we are coming into the land, this cord of crimson thread, must thou bind in the window by which thou didst let us down, and, thy father and thy mother and thy brethren and all the household of thy father, must thou gather together unto thee unto the house.

rotherham@Joshua:2:19 @ And it shall be, whosoever shall go forth out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood, shall be on his own head and, we, shall be free, but, whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood, shall be on our heads, if a, hand, be upon him.

rotherham@Joshua:2:20 @ Or, if thou utter this our business, then shall we be free from this thine oath which thou hast made us swear.

rotherham@Joshua:2:21 @ And she said According to your words, so, shall it be. Thus sent she them away and they departed, and she bound the crimson cord in the window.

rotherham@Joshua:2:24 @ and they said unto Joshua, Yahweh, hath delivered, into our hand all the land, moreover also all the inhabitants of the land, have melted away, from before us.

rotherham@Joshua:3:1 @ So then Joshua rose early in the morning, and they brake up from The Acacias and came as far as the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and they lodged there before they passed over.

rotherham@Joshua:3:4 @ Yet shall there be, a distance, between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure, do not come near unto it that ye may get to know the way by which ye must go, for ye have not passed this way, heretofore.

rotherham@Joshua:3:5 @ Then said Joshua unto the people, Hallow yourselves, for, to-morrow, will Yahweh do in your midst, wonderful things.

rotherham@Joshua:3:6 @ And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take ye up the ark of the covenant, and pass on before the people. So they took up the ark of the covenant, and went on before the people.

rotherham@Joshua:3:8 @ Thou, therefore, shalt command the priests who am bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye are come as far as the edge of the waters of the Jordan, in the Jordan, shall ye stand.

rotherham@Joshua:3:9 @ Then said Joshua, unto the sons of Israel, Draw near hither, and hear ye the words of Yahweh your God.

rotherham@Joshua:3:10 @ And Joshua said, Hereby, shall ye know, that a Living GOD is in your midst, and that he will, certainly dispossess, from before you, the Canaanite and the Hittite, and the Hivite and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite.

rotherham@Joshua:3:11 @ Lo! the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth, is about to pass before you into the Jordan.

rotherham@Joshua:3:12 @ Now, therefore, take you twelve men, out of the tribes of Israel, one man severally for each tribe;

rotherham@Joshua:3:13 @ and it shall be, when the soles of the feet of the priests who are bearing the ark of Yahweh, Lord of all the earth, do rest, in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan, shall be cut off, the waters that are coming down from above, and shall stand in one mound.

rotherham@Joshua:3:14 @ And it came to pass, when the people set out from their tents, to cross the Jordan, with the priests, bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,

rotherham@Joshua:3:15 @ then, as the bearers of the ark came as far as the Jordan, and, the feet of the priests who were bearing the ark, were dipped in the edge of the waters, the Jordan being full over all his banks, all the days of harvest,

rotherham@Joshua:3:17 @ And the priests who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, stood on dry ground, in the midst of the Jordan, with firm footing, while all Israel were passing over on dry ground, until all the nation had made an end of passing over the Jordan.

rotherham@Joshua:4:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the nation had made an end of passing over the Jordan, that Yahweh slake unto Joshua, saying:

rotherham@Joshua:4:3 @ and command ye them, saying, Take you up from hence, out of the midst of the Jordan, from the place where stood the feet of the priests with firm footing, twelve stones; and carry them over with you, and lay them down in the lodging-place where ye shall lodge, tonight.

rotherham@Joshua:4:5 @ and Joshua said unto them: Pass ye over, before the ark of Yahweh your God, into the midst of the Jordan, and lift ye up, each man one stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel:

rotherham@Joshua:4:6 @ that this may be a sign in your midst, for your sons will ask in time to come, saying, What mean these stones to you?

rotherham@Joshua:4:7 @ Then shall ye say unto them That the waters of the Jordan, were cut off, from before the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, when it passed into the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan, were cut off. So shall these stones become a memorial unto the sons of Israel, unto times age-abiding.

rotherham@Joshua:4:8 @ And the sons of Israel did so, as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as spake Yahweh unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel, and carried them with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

rotherham@Joshua:4:9 @ Twelve stones also, did Joshua set up in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where stood the feet of the priests who were bearing the ark of the covenant, and they have remained there until this day.

rotherham@Joshua:4:10 @ Now, the priests who were bearing the ark, continued standing in the midst of the Jordan, until everything was finished which Yahweh commanded Joshua, to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua, the people therefore hasted, and passed over.

rotherham@Joshua:4:12 @ Also the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the hall tribe of Manasseh, passed over, armed, before the sons of Israel, as Moses had spoken unto them:

rotherham@Joshua:4:13 @ about forty thousand, equipped for the war, passed over before Yahweh, to battle, into the waste plains of Jericho.

rotherham@Joshua:4:16 @ Command the priests who are bearing the ark of testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.

rotherham@Joshua:4:17 @ So Joshua commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out of the Jordan.

rotherham@Joshua:4:18 @ And it came to pass, when the priests who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh came up out of the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the feet of the priests were withdrawn unto the dry ground, then returned the waters of the Jordan unto their place, and went, as before, over all his banks.

rotherham@Joshua:4:19 @ So, the people, came up out of the Jordan, on the tenth of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, at the eastern end of Jericho.

rotherham@Joshua:4:20 @ And, these twelve stones which they took out of the Jordan, did Joshua set up, in Gilgal.

rotherham@Joshua:4:22 @ then shall ye let your sons know, saying, On dry ground, came Israel over this Jordan;

rotherham@Joshua:4:23 @ in that Yahweh your God dried up the waters of the Jordan, from before you, until ye had passed over, as Yahweh your God had done unto the Red Sea, which he dried up from before us, until we had passed over:

rotherham@Joshua:5:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan, from before the sons of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because of the sons of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:5:3 @ So Joshua made him knives of flint, and circumcised the sons of Israel, at the Hill of Foreskins.

rotherham@Joshua:5:4 @ Now, this, is the cause why Joshua did circumcise, all the people who came forth out of Egypt, who were males, all the men of war, died in the desert, by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt.

rotherham@Joshua:5:5 @ For, though all the people who came forth had been circumcised, yet, all the people who were born in the desert by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt, had they not circumcised.

rotherham@Joshua:5:6 @ Because, for forty years, did the sons of Israel journey in the desert, until all the nation who were men of war, who came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, unto whom Yahweh sware that he would not let them see the land, which Yahweh sware unto their fathers, that he would give unto us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

rotherham@Joshua:5:7 @ Their sons, therefore, whom he had raised up in their stead, them, did Joshua circumcise, for, uncircumcised, they were, in that they had not circumcised them by the way.

rotherham@Joshua:5:9 @ Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, To-day, have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of that place is called Gilgal unto this day. \fs15

rotherham@Joshua:5:11 @ And they did eat of the corn of the land, on the morrow of the passover, unleavened cakes and parched ears of corn, on this selfsame day.

rotherham@Joshua:5:12 @ And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they had eaten of the corn of the land, neither had the sons of Israel manna any more, so they did eat of the yield of the land of Canaan throughout that year.

rotherham@Joshua:5:13 @ And it came to pass, while Joshua was at Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes, and looked, and lo! a man standing over against him, with his sword drawn, in his hand, so Joshua went unto him, and said to him, For us, art thou, or for our adversaries?

rotherham@Joshua:5:14 @ And he said Nay, but, I, as prince of the host of Yahweh, have, now, come. So Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said unto him, What is my lord speaking unto his servant?

rotherham@Joshua:5:15 @ Then said the prince of the host of Yahweh unto Joshua Slip off thy sandals from thy feet, for, as for the place whereon thou art standing, holy, it is. And Joshua did so.

rotherham@Joshua:6:4 @ And, seven priests, shall bear the seven rams horns before the ark, and, on the seventh day, shall ye compass the city seven times, and, the priests, shall blow with the horns.

rotherham@Joshua:6:5 @ And it shall come to pass, when the rams horn soundeth, when ye hear the sound of the horn, that all the people shall shout with a great shout, and then shall the wall of the city fall down under it, and the people shall go up, every man straight before him.

rotherham@Joshua:6:6 @ Then called Joshua son of Nun unto the priests, and said unto them, Bear ye the ark of the covenant, and let, seven priest, bear seven rams horns, before the ark of Yahweh.

rotherham@Joshua:6:7 @ Then said he unto the people, Pass on and compass the city, and let, the armed host, pass on before the ark of Yahweh.

rotherham@Joshua:6:8 @ And it was so, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that, the seven priests who were bearing the seven rams horns before Yahweh, passed on and blew with the horns, the ark of the covenant of Yahweh also coming after them.

rotherham@Joshua:6:9 @ And, the armed host, went on before the priests who blew with the horns, and, the rear-guard, came after the ark, going on and blowing with the horns.

rotherham@Joshua:6:10 @ Now, unto the people, had Joshua given command, saying Ye shall not shout nor let your voice be heard, neither shall there go out of your mouth, a word, until the day when I say unto you Shout! then shall ye shout.

rotherham@Joshua:6:12 @ And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests bare the ark of Yahweh;

rotherham@Joshua:6:13 @ and, the seven priests who bare the seven rams horns before the ark of Yahweh, went on and on, and blew with the horns, with, the armed host going on before them, and, the rear-guard, coming after the ark of Yahweh, going on and blowing with the horns.

rotherham@Joshua:6:16 @ And it came to pass, at the seventh timewhen the priests blew with the horns, then did Joshua say unto the people Shout, for Yahweh hath delivered unto you the city.

rotherham@Joshua:6:17 @ And it shall be, that, as for the city, devoted, shall it be and all that is therein unto Yahweh, nevertheless, Rahab the harlot, shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers whom we sent.

rotherham@Joshua:6:19 @ But, as for all silver and gold and vessels of bronze and iron, hallowed, it is to Yahweh, unto the treasury of Yahweh, shall it come.

rotherham@Joshua:6:20 @ So the people shouted, when the horns were blown, yea it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the horn, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down under it, and the people went up into the city every man straight before him, and so they captured the city.

rotherham@Joshua:6:21 @ And they devoted all that were in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox and sheep and ass, with the edge of the sword.

rotherham@Joshua:6:26 @ And Joshua imposed an oath at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Yahweh who shall raise up and build this city Jericho, At the price of his firstborn, shall he lay its foundation, and, at the price of his youngest, shall he set up its doors.

rotherham@Joshua:7:1 @ But the sons of Israel had committed an act of unfaithfulness in respect of what was devoted, for Achan son of Carmi son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah had taken of what was devoted, and the anger of Yahweh had kindled against the sons of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:7:3 @ And they returned unto Joshua and said unto him Let not all the people go up, about two thousand men or three thousand men, can go up and smite Ai, do not weary the whole people to go thither, for, but few, they are.

rotherham@Joshua:7:4 @ There went up thither of the people therefore, about three thousand men, but they fled before the men of Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:7:5 @ And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty-six men, and pursued them before the gate as far as the Shebarim, and smote them on the slope, so that the heart of the people melted and became as water.

rotherham@Joshua:7:6 @ Then Joshua rent his clothes and fell upon his face to the earth before the ark of Yahweh until the evening, he and the elders of Israel, and they lifted up dust upon their heads.

rotherham@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said Alas! My Lord Yahweh! Wherefore hast thou, brought, this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? Would then we had been content to dwell on the other side of the Jordan!

rotherham@Joshua:7:8 @ Oh My Lord, what shall I say, after Israel have turned their backs before their enemies?

rotherham@Joshua:7:9 @ Only let the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and they will surround us, and cut off our name out of the earth, what then wilt thou do for thy great name?

rotherham@Joshua:7:10 @ And Yahweh said unto Joshua Get thee up! wherefore is it that thou art lying upon thy face?

rotherham@Joshua:7:11 @ Israel hath sinned, yea moreover they have transgressed my covenant which I commanded them, yea moreover they have taken of what was devoted, yea moreover they have stolen, yea moreover they have dissembled, yea moreover they have put it among their own goods.

rotherham@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore cannot the sons of Israel stand before their enemies, their back, do they turn before their enemies, because they have become devoted, I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the devoted thing out of your midst.

rotherham@Joshua:7:13 @ Up! hallow the people, and thou shalt say, Hallow yourselves by to-morrow, for, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel: A devoted thing, is in the midst of thee O Israel, Thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye have put away the devoted thing out of your midst.

rotherham@Joshua:7:14 @ Therefore shall ye be brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it shall be thatthe tribe which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by families, and the family which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by households, and the household which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, man by man;

rotherham@Joshua:7:16 @ So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel near by their tribes, and, the tribe of Judah, was seized;

rotherham@Joshua:7:19 @ And Joshua said unto Achan My son give I pray thee glory unto Yahweh God of Israel and make to him confession, and tell me I pray thee what thou hast done, do not hide it from me.

rotherham@Joshua:7:23 @ And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, and poured them out before Yahweh.

rotherham@Joshua:7:24 @ And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achanson of Zerah, and the silver and the mantle and the wedge of gold, and his sons and his daughters, and his oxen and his asses and his sheep and his tent, and all that he had, and brought them up the valley of Achor.

rotherham@Joshua:8:1 @ Then said Yahweh unto Joshua Do not fear nor be dismayed, take with thee all the army, and arise, go up to Ai, see! I have given into thy hand, the king of Ai and his people, and his city, and his land;

rotherham@Joshua:8:2 @ so shalt thou do unto Ai and to her king, as thou didst unto Jericho unto her king, save only, the spoil thereof and the cattle thereof, shall ye take as your own prey, set thee an ambush for the city, behind it.

rotherham@Joshua:8:3 @ So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up to Ai, and Joshua chose out thirty thousand men, the mighty men of valour, and sent them forth by night.

rotherham@Joshua:8:5 @ But, I, and all the people who are with me, will draw near unto the city, and it shall be, when they come out to meet us, as at the first, then will we flee before them;

rotherham@Joshua:8:6 @ so will they come out after us, until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say, Fleeing before us, as at the first! therefore will we flee before them.

rotherham@Joshua:8:8 @ And it shall be, when ye have seized the city, then shall ye burn the city with fire, according to the word of Yahweh, shall ye do, see! I have commanded you.

rotherham@Joshua:8:9 @ So Joshua sent them forth, and they went into ambush, and abode between Bethel and Ai, on the west of Ai, but Joshua lodged that night in the midst of the people.

rotherham@Joshua:8:10 @ And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and mustered the people, and went uphe and the elders of Israel, before the people, to Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:8:11 @ And, all the people of war who were with him, went up, and drew near, and came in, right before the city, and pitched on the north of Ai, with, a valley, between them and Ai.

rotherham@Joshua:8:13 @ And, when the people had set all the host that was on the north of the city, with the rear thereof on the west of the city, then went Joshua, during the night, into the midst of the valley.

rotherham@Joshua:8:14 @ And it came to pass, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hasted, and rose up early, and the men of the city came out to meet Israel for battle, he and all his people, at an appointed time, before the waste plain, he not knowing that there was an ambush lying in wait for him, behind the city.

rotherham@Joshua:8:15 @ So then Joshua and all Israel suffered themselves to be smitten before them, and fled, by the way of the wilderness;

rotherham@Joshua:8:17 @ And there remained not a man, in Ai or Bethel, who had not gone out after Israel, and they left the city, open, and pursued Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:8:18 @ Then said Yahweh unto Joshua Stretch out with the javelin which is in thy hand, towards Ai, for, into thy hand, will I deliver it. So Joshua stretched out with the javelin which was in his hand, towards the city.

rotherham@Joshua:8:20 @ And the men of Ai turned behind them, and looked, and lo! the smoke of the city had risen up towards the heavens, and there was in them no strength, to flee this way or that way, moreover, the people that were fleeing to the wilderness, turned back upon the pursuers.

rotherham@Joshua:8:22 @ And, the others, came forth out of the city to meet them, so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side, and they smote them, until there was left them none to remain or to escape.

rotherham@Joshua:8:24 @ And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness whither they had pursued them, and all of them had fallen by the edge of the sword until they were consumed, then all Israel returned to Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.

rotherham@Joshua:8:27 @ Nevertheless, the cattle and the spoil of that city, Israel took as their own prey, according to the word of Yahweh, which he commanded Joshua.

rotherham@Joshua:8:33 @ And, all Israel, and their elders and officers, and their judges, were standing on this side and on that side of the ark, before the priests the Levites, who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, as well the sojourner as the home-born, half of them over against Mount Gerizim, and half of them over against Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded to bless the sons of Israel, first of all.

rotherham@Joshua:8:34 @ And, after that, read he all the words of the law, the blessing and the cursing, according to all that was written in the scroll of the law.

rotherham@Joshua:8:35 @ Them was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the convocation of Israel, with the women and the little ones, and the sojourner who was going on in their midst.

rotherham@Joshua:9:1 @ And it came to pass, when they heard, namely, all the kings who were over the Jordan, in the hill country and in the lowland, and in all the coast of the great sea, over against the Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite;

rotherham@Joshua:9:2 @ then gathered they themselves together as one man, to fight with Joshua, and with Israel, with one accord.

rotherham@Joshua:9:4 @ they, however, acted craftily, and went and started, and took old sacks for their asses, and leathern wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up;

rotherham@Joshua:9:5 @ and sandals, old and patched, upon their feet, and worn-out mantles upon them, and, all the bread of their provision, was dry and broken.

rotherham@Joshua:9:6 @ So they took their journey unto Joshua, unto the camp, at Gilgal, and said unto him, and unto the men of Israel, From a far country, are we come, Now, therefore, solemnise with us a covenant.

rotherham@Joshua:9:10 @ and all that he had done unto the two kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan, unto Sihon, king of Heshbon, and unto Og, king of Bashan, who was in Ashtaroth.

rotherham@Joshua:9:11 @ So our elders and all the inhabitants of our land spake unto us, saying Take ye, in your hand, provision for the journey, and go your way to meet them, then shall ye say unto them, Your servants, we are. Now, therefore, solemnise with us a covenant.

rotherham@Joshua:9:12 @ This our bread, took we, hot, for our provision, out of our houses, on the day we came forth to journey unto you, but, now, lo! it is dry, yea it is broken;

rotherham@Joshua:9:13 @ and, these leathern wine bottles, which we filled new, lo! also, they are rent, and, as for these our mantles and our sandals, they are worn out, by reason of the very long journey.

rotherham@Joshua:9:18 @ And the sons of Israel smote them not, because the princes of the assembly had sworn unto them by Yahweh, God of Israel, but all the assembly murmured against the princes.

rotherham@Joshua:9:19 @ And all the princes said unto all the assembly, We, have sworn unto them, by Yahweh, God of Israel, now, therefore, we may not touch them.

rotherham@Joshua:9:20 @ This, will we do unto them, even let them live, lest there come on us wrath, because of the oath which we have sworn unto them.

rotherham@Joshua:9:22 @ And Joshua called for them, and spake unto them, saying, Wherefore did ye deceive us, saying We are, very far, from you, whereas, ye, in our midst, are dwelling?

rotherham@Joshua:9:23 @ Now, therefore, accursed, ye are, and ye shall not cease to be in bond-service as hewers of wood and drawers of water, for the house of my God.

rotherham@Joshua:9:24 @ And they responded to Joshua, and said Because it was, plainly told, thy servants, how that Yahweh thy God had commanded Moses his servant to give unto you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you, therefore feared we greatly, for our lives, because of you, and did this thing.

rotherham@Joshua:9:25 @ Now, therefore, here we are, in thy hand, as may be good and right in thine eyes, to do unto us, do.

rotherham@Joshua:10:3 @ therefore sent Adonizedec, king of Jerusalem, unto Hoham, king of Hebron, and unto Piram, king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia, king of Lachish, and unto Debir, king of Eglon, saying:

rotherham@Joshua:10:4 @ Come up unto me and help me, that we may smite Gibeon, for it hath made peace with Joshua, and with the sons of Israel.

rotherham@Joshua:10:5 @ So they gathered themselves together and came up, even the five kings of the Amoritesthe king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon, they, and all their hosts, and encamped near Gibeon, and made war against it.

rotherham@Joshua:10:6 @ So the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, saying, Do not withhold thy hand from thy servants, Come up unto us quickly, and save us, and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country, are gathered together against us.
