Joshua 9:5 WEB

³  But when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and to Ai,

⁴  they also resorted to a ruse, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks on their donkeys, and wine-skins, old and torn and bound up,

⁵  and old and patched shoes on their feet, and old garments on them; and all the bread of their provision was dry and was become moldy.

⁶  They went to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal, and said to him, and to the men of Israel, We are come from a far country: now therefore make you a covenant with us.

⁷  The men of Israel said to the Hivites, What if you dwell among us; and how shall we make a covenant with you?
