Joshua 2:16-22
-
16 And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way.
-
17 And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear.
-
18 Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household, home unto thee.
-
19 And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand be upon him.
-
20 And if thou utter this our business, then we will be quit of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.
-
21 And she said, According unto your words, so be it. And she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window.
-
22 And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.
