12 »I pray that you will swear to me by Jehovah, since I have showed you kindness that you will also show kindness to my father’s house, and give me a true token(sign) (pledge of truth);
13 »That you will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers and sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.«
14 The men answered her: »Our life for yours, if you do not reveal our business. It will be, when Jehovah has given us the land. We will deal kindly and truly with you.«
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window for her house was upon the town wall. She lived on the wall.
16 She said: »Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you. Hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers return and afterward go your way.«
17 The men said to her: »We will be free from this oath you made us swear.
18 »When we come into the land, tie this scarlet cord in the window from which you let us down. Bring your father, mother, brothers and sisters and your father’s entire household into your home.
19 »Whoever goes out of your house into the street will be responsible for his own life. We will be guiltless: and whoever shall be with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is laid on him.
