Joshua 9:24
गिबोनी मानिसहरूले उत्तर दिए, “हामीले तपाईंसित झूटो कुरा गर्यौं किनभने हामीलाई तपाईंहरूले मार्नु हुनेछ भनी हामी भयभीत थियौं। हामीले यो सुन्यौं कि परमेश्वरले उहाँका दास मोशालाई यो सम्पूर्ण देश तपाईंहरूलाई दिनु भनी आज्ञा दिनु भएको थियो। अनि परमेश्वरले तपाईंहरूलाई भन्नुभयो यो देशमा बस्ने सबै मानिसहरूलाई मारिदिनु। त्यसै कारणले हामीले तपाईंसित झूटो बोल्यौं।
