They did work wilily, and went and made as if they had been ambassadors, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine bottles, old, and rent, and bound up;
Actuaron con astucia y engaño, fingiendo ser mensajeros oficiales de una tierra lejana. Cargaron sus burros con costales viejos y gastados, y odres de vino viejos y agrietados que habían sido remendados.
Los gabaonitas usaron engaño y objetos viejos para hacerse pasar por viajeros de tierras lejanas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Joshua, the Israelites were conquering the Promised Land of Canaan under God's command after their exodus from Egypt. The Gibeonites, a group of local inhabitants who feared being destroyed, devised a clever deception to secure a peace treaty with the Israelites by pretending to be travelers from a distant land. They used worn-out items like old sacks and wineskins to make their story seem credible and avoid the fate of other Canaanite cities.
