Joshua 2:12-19
12NowH6258 thereforeH6258, I pray you, swearH7650 unto me by Jehovah, since I have dealt kindly with you, that ye alsoH1571 will deal kindly with my father’sH1 houseH1004, and giveH5414 me a true token; 13and that ye will save aliveH2421 my fatherH1, and my motherH517, and my brethren, and my sistersH269, and all that they have, and will deliverH5337 our livesH5315 from deathH4194. 14And the menH376 saidH559 unto her, Our lifeH5315 for yours, if ye utter not this our business; and it shall beH1961, when Jehovah giveth us the landH776, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee.
15Then she let them downH3381 by a cordH2256 through the windowH2474: for her houseH1004 was upon the sideH7023 of the wallH2346, and she dweltH3427 upon the wallH2346. 16And she saidH559 unto them, Get you to the mountainH2022, lestH6435 the pursuersH7291 light upon you; and hideH2247 yourselves there threeH7969 daysH3117, until the pursuersH7291 be returnedH7725: and afterward may ye goH7725 your wayH1870. 17And the menH376 saidH559 unto her, We will be guiltless of this thine oathH7621 which thou hast madeH7650 us to swearH7650. 18Behold, whenH834 we comeH935 into the landH776, thou shalt bindH7194 this line of scarletH8144 threadH2339 in the windowH2474 which thou didst let us downH3381 by: and thou shalt gatherH622 unto thee into the houseH1004 thy fatherH1, and thy motherH517, and thy brethren, and all thy father’sH1 householdH1004. 19And it shall beH1961, that whosoever shall goH3318 out of the doorsH1817 of thy houseH1004 into the streetH2351, his bloodH1818 shall beH1961 upon his headH7218, and we shall beH1961 guiltless: and whosoever shall beH1961 with thee in the houseH1004, his bloodH1818 shall beH1961 on our headH7218, if any handH3027 beH1961 upon him.
