Joshua 2:6-10

6(ButH1931 Rahab had taken them upH5927 to the roofH1406 and hidden themH2934 among the stalksH6086 of flaxH6593 that she had laid outH6186 there.)

7So the king’s menH582 set out in pursuitH7291 of the spies along the roadH1870 toH5921 the fordsH4569 of the JordanH3383, and asH834 soon as theyH3318 had gone outH7291H310, the gateH8179 was shutH5462H310.

8BeforeH2962 the spies lay down for the nightH7901, Rahab went upH5927 onH5921 the roofH1406 9and saidH559 to themH413H582, “I knowH3045 thatH3588 the LORDH3068 has givenH5414 you this landH776 and thatH3588 the fear of youH367 has fallenH5307 on usH5921, so thatH3588 allH3605 who dwellH3427 in the landH776 are melting in fearH4127 of youH6440. 10ForH3588 we have heardH8085 howH834 the LORDH3068 dried upH3001 the watersH4325 of the RedH5488 SeaH32201 before youH6440 when you came outH3318 of EgyptH4714, and whatH834 you didH6213 to SihonH5511 and OgH5747, the twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567 acrossH5676 the JordanH3383, whomH834 you devoted to destructionH2763.2
