1 And Joshua 3091 the son 1121 of Nun 5126 sent 7971 out of Shittim 7851 two 8147 men 582 to spy 7270 secretly 2791, saying 559, Go 3212 view 7200 the land 776, even Jericho 3405. And they went 3212, and came 935 into an harlot's 2181 house 802 1004, named 8034 Rahab 7343, and lodged 7901 there.
2 And it was told 559 the king 4428 of Jericho 3405, saying 559, Behold, there came 935 men 582 in hither to night 3915 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478 to search out 2658 the country 776.
3 And the king 4428 of Jericho 3405 sent 7971 unto Rahab 7343, saying 559, Bring forth 3318 the men 582 that are come 935 to thee, which are entered 935 into thine house 1004: for they be come 935 to search out 2658 all the country 776.
4 And the woman 802 took 3947 the two 8147 men 582, and hid 6845 them, and said 559 thus, There came 935 men 582 unto me, but I wist 3045 not whence 370 they were:
5 And it came to pass about the time of shutting 5462 of the gate 8179, when it was dark 2822, that the men 582 went out 3318: whither the men 582 went 1980 I wot 3045 not: pursue 7291 after 310 them quickly 4118; for ye shall overtake 5381 them.
6 But she had brought them up 5927 to the roof 1406 of the house, and hid 2934 them with the stalks 6086 of flax 6593, which she had laid in order 6186 upon the roof 1406.
7 And the men 582 pursued 7291 after 310 them the way 1870 to Jordan 3383 unto the fords 4569: and as soon as they which pursued 7291 after 310 them were gone out 3318, they shut 5462 the gate 8179.
8 And before they were laid down 7901, she came up 5927 unto them upon the roof 1406;
9 And she said 559 unto the men 582, I know 3045 that the LORD 3068 hath given 5414 you the land 776, and that your terror 367 is fallen 5307 upon us, and that all the inhabitants 3427 of the land 776 faint 4127 because 6440 of you.
10 For we have heard 8085 how the LORD 3068 dried up 3001 the water 4325 of the Red 5488 sea 3220 for you 6440, when ye came out 3318 of Egypt 4714; and what ye did 6213 unto the two 8147 kings 4428 of the Amorites 567, that were on the other side 5676 Jordan 3383, Sihon 5511 and Og 5747, whom ye utterly destroyed 2763.
11 And as soon as we had heard 8085 these things, our hearts 3824 did melt 4549, neither did there remain 6965 any more courage 7307 in any man 376, because 6440 of you: for the LORD 3068 your God 430, he is God 430 in heaven 8064 above 4605, and in earth 776 beneath.
12 Now therefore, I pray you, swear 7650 unto me by the LORD 3068, since 3588 I have shewed 6213 you kindness 2617, that ye will also shew 6213 kindness 2617 unto my father's 1 house 1004, and give 5414 me a true 571 token 226:
13 And that ye will save alive 2421 my father 1, and my mother 517, and my brethren 251, and my sisters 269, and all that they have, and deliver 5337 our lives 5315 from death 4194.
14 And the men 582 answered 559 her, Our life 5315 for yours 4191, if ye utter 5046 not this our business 1697. And it shall be, when the LORD 3068 hath given 5414 us the land 776, that we will deal 6213 kindly 2617 and truly 571 with thee.
15 Then she let them down 3381 by a cord 2256 through 1157 the window 2474: for her house 1004 was upon the town 7023 wall 2346, and she dwelt 3427 upon the wall 2346.
16 And she said 559 unto them, Get 3212 you to the mountain 2022, lest the pursuers 7291 meet 6293 you; and hide 2247 yourselves there three 7969 days 3117, until the pursuers 7291 be returned 7725: and afterward 310 may ye go 3212 your way 1870.
17 And the men 582 said 559 unto her, We will be blameless 5355 of this thine oath 7621 which thou hast made us swear 7650.
18 Behold, when we come 935 into the land 776, thou shalt bind 7194 this line 8615 of scarlet 8144 thread 2339 in the window 2474 which thou didst let us down by 3381: and thou shalt bring 622 thy father 1, and thy mother 517, and thy brethren 251, and all thy father's 1 household 1004, home 1004 unto thee.
19 And it shall be, that whosoever 834 shall go out 3318 of the doors 1817 of thy house 1004 into the street 2351, his blood 1818 shall be upon his head 7218, and we will be guiltless 5355: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house 1004, his blood 1818 shall be on our head 7218, if any hand 3027 be upon him.
20 And if thou utter 5046 this our business 1697, then we will be quit 5355 of thine oath 7621 which thou hast made us to swear 7650.
21 And she said 559, According unto your words 1697, so be it. And she sent them away 7971, and they departed 3212: and she bound 7194 the scarlet 8144 line 8615 in the window 2474.
22 And they went 3212, and came 935 unto the mountain 2022, and abode 3427 there three 7969 days 3117, until the pursuers 7291 were returned 7725: and the pursuers 7291 sought 1245 them throughout all the way 1870, but found 4672 them not.
23 So the two 8147 men 582 returned 7725, and descended 3381 from the mountain 2022, and passed over 5674, and came 935 to Joshua 3091 the son 1121 of Nun 5126, and told 5608 him all things that befell 4672 them:
24 And they said 559 unto Joshua 3091, Truly 3588 the LORD 3068 hath delivered 5414 into our hands 3027 all the land 776; for even all the inhabitants 3427 of the country 776 do faint 4127 because 6440 of us.
