Then Joshua called for them and spoke to them, saying,“ Why have you deceived us, saying,‘ We are very far from you,’ when you are living within our land?

约书亚召了他们来，对他们说：“为什么欺哄我们说‘我们离你们甚远’呢？其实你们是住在我们中间。

約書亞召基遍人曰、爾之居處鄰近於我、曷欺我、言來自遠方乎。

Then Joshua summoned the Gibeonites and said,“ Why did you deceive us by saying,‘ We live a long way from you,’ while actually you live near us?

Joshua sent for the people of Gibeon. He said to them,“ Why did you trick us? You said,‘ We live far away from you.’ But in fact you live close to us.

Joshua summoned them, and he said to them,“ Why did you deceive us, saying,‘ We are very far from you,’ when you dwell among us?

Joshua called together the Gibeonites and said,“ Why did you lie to us? Why did you say that you live in a distant land when you live right here among us?

Joshua summoned the Gibeonites and said to them,“ Why did you deceive us by telling us you live far away from us, when in fact you live among us?

Then Joshua called for them, and he spoke to them, saying,“ Why have you deceived us, saying,‘ We are very far from you,’ when you dwell near us?

And Joshua called for them, and he spake unto them, saying, Wherefore have ye beguiled us, saying, We are very far from you; when ye dwell among us?

Joshua summoned the Gibeonites and said to them,“ Why did you deceive us by telling us you live far away from us, when in fact you live among us?

And Joshua called for them, and he spake unto them, saying, Wherefore have ye beguiled us, saying, We[ are] very far from you; when ye dwell among us?

Joshua summoned the Gibeonites and said to them,“ Why did you trick us by saying,‘ We live far away from you,’ when you really live nearby?

Joshua called for them, and he spoke to them, saying,“ Why have you deceived us, saying,‘ We are very far from you,’ when you live among us?

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

However, it came about at the end of three days after they had made a covenant with them, that they heard that they were neighbors and that they were living within their land.

So it came about in the morning that, behold, it was Leah! And he said to Laban,“ What is this that you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served with you? Why then have you deceived me?”

They said to him,“ Your servants have come from a very distant country because of the fame of the Lord your God; for we have heard the report about Him and all that He did in Egypt,and all that He did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon and to Og king of Bashan who was in Ashtaroth.

So Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said to himself,“ The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”Now when the words of her elder son Esau were reported to Rebekah, she sent word and called her younger son Jacob, and said to him,“ Behold your brother Esau is consoling himself concerning you by planning to kill you.Now then, my son, obey my voice, and arise, flee to Haran, to my brother Laban!Stay with him a few days, until your brother’s fury subsides,until your brother’s anger against you subsides and he forgets what you did to him. Then I will send word and get you from there. Why should I lose you both in one day?”

Then the Lord God said to the woman,“ What is this that you have done?” And the woman said,“ The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”Then the Lord God said to the serpent,“ Because you have done this, Cursed are you more than all the livestock, And more than any animal of the field; On your belly you shall go, And dust you shall eat All the days of your life;

And he said,“ Your brother came deceitfully and has taken away your blessing.”Then Esau said,“ Is he not rightly named Jacob, for he has betrayed me these two times? He took away my birthright, and behold, now he has taken away my blessing.” And he said,“ Have you not reserved a blessing for me?”

But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his trickery, your minds will be led astray from sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
