Joshua 9:21

Context
9:21 The leaders then added, 1  “Let them live.” So they became 2  woodcutters and water carriers for the whole community, as the leaders had decided. 3 

1 tc Heb “and the leaders said to them.” The LXX omits the words “and the leaders said to them.”

2 tn The vav (ו) consecutive construction in the Hebrew text suggests that the narrative resumes at this point. The LXX reads here, “and they will be,” understanding what follows to be a continuation of the leaders’ words rather than a comment by the narrator.

3 tn Heb “as the leaders said to them.”
