1 H3091 And Joshua H1121 the son H5126 of Nun H7971 [H8799] sent H7851 from Shittim H8147 two H582 men H7270 [H8764] to spy H2791 secretly H559 [H8800] , saying H3212 [H8798] , Go H7200 [H8798] view H776 the land H3405 , even Jericho H3212 [H8799] . And they went H935 [H8799] , and came H2181 [H8802] into an harlot's H802 H1004 house H8034 , named H7343 Rahab H7901 [H8799] , and lodged there.

2 H559 [H8735] And it was told H4428 the king H3405 of Jericho H559 [H8800] , saying H935 [H8804] , Behold, there came H582 men H3915 in here to night H1121 of the children H3478 of Israel H2658 [H8800] to search out H776 the country.

3 H4428 And the king H3405 of Jericho H7971 [H8799] sent H7343 to Rahab H559 [H8800] , saying H3318 [H8685] , Bring forth H582 the men H935 [H8802] that have come H935 [H8804] to thee, who have entered H1004 into thy house H935 [H8804] : for they have come H2658 [H8800] to search out H776 all the country.

4 H802 And the woman H3947 [H8799] took H8147 the two H582 men H6845 [H8799] , and hid H559 [H8799] them, and said H935 [H8804] thus, There came H582 men H3045 [H8804] to me, but I knew H370 not where they were:

5 H5462 [H8800] And it came to pass about the time of shutting H8179 the gate H2822 , when it was dark H582 , that the men H3318 [H8804] went out H582 : where the men H1980 [H8804] went H3045 [H8804] I know H7291 [H8798] not: pursue H310 after H4118 them quickly H5381 [H8686] ; for ye shall overtake them.

6 H5927 [H8689] But she had brought them up H1406 to the roof H2934 [H8799] of the house, and hid H6086 them with the stalks H6593 of flax H6186 [H8803] , which she had laid in order H1406 upon the roof.

7 H582 And the men H7291 H310 [H8804] pursued H1870 them the way H3383 to Jordan H4569 to the fords H7291 H310 [H8802] : and as soon as they who pursued H3318 [H8804] them had gone out H5462 [H8804] , they shut H8179 the gate.

8 H7901 [H8799] And before they had lain down H5927 [H8804] , she came up H1406 to them upon the roof;

9 H559 [H8799] And she said H582 to the men H3045 [H8804] , I know H3068 that the LORD H5414 [H8804] hath given H776 you the land H367 , and that your terror H5307 [H8804] hath fallen H3427 [H8802] upon us, and that all the inhabitants H776 of the land H4127 [H8738] faint H6440 because of you.

10 H8085 [H8804] For we have heard H3068 how the LORD H3001 [H8689] dried up H4325 the water H5488 of the Red H3220 sea H6440 for you H3318 [H8800] , when ye came out H4714 of Egypt H6213 [H8804] ; and what ye did H8147 to the two H4428 kings H567 of the Amorites H5676 , that were on the other side H3383 of Jordan H5511 , Sihon H5747 and Og H2763 [H8689] , whom ye utterly destroyed.

11 H8085 [H8799] And as soon as we had heard H3824 these things, our hearts H4549 [H8735] did melt H6965 [H8804] , neither did there remain H7307 any more courage H376 in any man H6440 , because H3068 of you: for the LORD H430 your God H430 , he is God H8064 in heaven H4605 above H776 , and in earth beneath.

12 H7650 [H8734] Now therefore, I pray you, swear H3068 to me by the LORD H3588 , since H6213 [H8804] I have showed H2617 you kindness H6213 [H8804] , that ye will also show H2617 kindness H1 to my father's H1004 house H5414 [H8804] , and give H571 me a true H226 token:

13 H2421 [H8689] And that ye will save alive H1 my father H517 , and my mother H251 , and my brethren H269 , and my sisters H5337 [H8689] , and all that they have, and deliver H5315 our lives H4194 from death.

14 H582 And the men H559 [H8799] answered H5315 her, Our life H4191 [H8800] for yours H5046 [H8686] , if ye utter H1697 not this our business H3068 . And it shall be, when the LORD H5414 [H8800] hath given H776 us the land H6213 [H8804] , that we will deal H2617 kindly H571 and truly with thee.

15 H3381 [H8686] Then she let them down H2256 by a cord H1157 through H2474 the window H1004 : for her house H7023 was upon the town H2346 wall H3427 [H8802] , and she dwelt H2346 upon the wall.

16 H559 [H8799] And she said H3212 [H8798] to them, Depart H2022 to the mountain H7291 [H8802] , lest the pursuers H6293 [H8799] meet H2247 [H8738] you; and hide H7969 yourselves there three H3117 days H7291 [H8802] , until the pursuers H7725 [H8800] have returned H310 : and afterward H3212 [H8799] ye may go H1870 your way.

17 H582 And the men H559 [H8799] said H5355 to her, We will be blameless H7621 of this thy oath H7650 [H8689] which thou hast made us swear.

18 H935 [H8802] Behold, when we come H776 into the land H7194 [H8799] , thou shalt bind H8615 this line H8144 of scarlet H2339 thread H2474 in the window H3381 [H8689] by which thou didst let us down H622 [H8799] : and thou shalt bring H1 thy father H517 , and thy mother H251 , and thy brethren H1 , and all thy father's H1004 household H1004 , home to thee.

19 H834 And it shall be, that whoever H3318 [H8799] shall go out H1817 of the doors H1004 of thy house H2351 into the street H1818 , his blood H7218 shall be upon his head H5355 , and we will be guiltless H1004 : and whoever shall be with thee in the house H1818 , his blood H7218 shall be on our head H3027 , if any hand be upon him.

20 H5046 [H8686] And if thou shalt utter H1697 this our business H5355 , then we will be free H7621 of thy oath H7650 [H8689] which thou hast made us to swear.

21 H559 [H8799] And she said H1697 , According to your words H7971 [H8762] , so be it. And she sent them away H3212 [H8799] , and they departed H7194 [H8799] : and she bound H8144 the scarlet H8615 line H2474 in the window.

22 H3212 [H8799] And they went H935 [H8799] , and came H2022 to the mountain H3427 [H8799] , and abode H7969 there three H3117 days H7291 [H8802] , until the pursuers H7725 [H8804] had returned H7291 [H8802] : and the pursuers H1245 [H8762] sought H1870 them throughout all the way H4672 [H8804] , but found them not.

23 H8147 So the two H582 men H7725 [H8799] returned H3381 [H8799] , and descended H2022 from the mountain H5674 [H8799] , and passed over H935 [H8799] , and came H3091 to Joshua H1121 the son H5126 of Nun H5608 [H8762] , and told H4672 [H8802] him all things that befell them:

24 H559 [H8799] And they said H3091 to Joshua H3588 , Truly H3068 the LORD H5414 [H8804] hath delivered H3027 into our hands H776 all the land H3427 [H8802] ; for even all the inhabitants H776 of the country H4127 [H8738] do faint H6440 because of us.
