The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: JOS 9:18 And the children of Israel smote them not, because the princes
of the congregation had sworn unto them by the LORD God of Israel. And
all the congregation murmured against the princes.
JOS 9:19 But all the princes said unto all the congregation, We have
sworn unto them by the LORD God of Israel: now therefore we may not
touch them.
JOS 9:20 This we will do to them; we will even let them live, lest
wrath be upon us, because of the oath which we sware unto them.
JOS 9:21 And the princes said unto them, Let them live; but let them be
hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation; as the
princes had promised them.
