3 And those dwelling in Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai, 4 and they also worked craftily, and they went and acted as envoys, and they took old sacks on their donkeys, and wineskins that were old and torn and mended, 5 and sandals that were old and patched on their feet, and old garments on themselves, and all the bread of their provision was dry—it had become crumbs. 6 And they went to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal and said to him and to the men of Israel, “From a distant country we have come, and now make with us a covenant.” Joshua 9:3-6, Berean Literal Bible.
