And Josue made peace with them, and entering into a league promised that they should not be slain: the princes also of the multitude swore to them.
And the children of Israel removed the camp, and came into their cities on the third day: the names of which are Gabaon, and Caphira, and Beroth, and Cariathiarim.

They answered: From a very far country thy servants are come in the name of the Lord thy God. For we have heard the fame of his power, all the things that he did in Egypt.
