Joshua 9:4-6

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁴ They worked cunningly, and went pretending to be ambassadors and took [provisions and] old sacks on their donkeys and wineskins, old, torn, and mended,

⁵ And old and patched shoes on their feet and wearing old garments; and all their supply of food was dry and moldy.

⁶ And they went to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal and said to him and the men of Israel, We have come from a far country; so now, make a covenant with us.
