The Book of Joshua 2

2And Joshua the son of Nun secretly sent from the Shittim two men, spies, saying, “Go, see the land and Jericho.” And they went and entered the house of a woman, a prostitute, and her name was Rahab, and they lay down there. 2And it was said to the king of Jericho, saying, “Behold, men have come here tonight from the sons of Israel to search the land.” 3And the king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, “Bring out the men, the ones coming to you, who came to your house, because they have come to search all the land.” 4And the woman took the two men and hid them. And she said, “Indeed, the men came to me and I did not know from where they were. 5And the gate was to shut at the darkness and the men went out. I do not know to where the men went. Pursue after them quickly for you will overtake them.” 6(Now she had brought them up to the roof and had hidden them in the flaxes of the stalk arranged by her on the roof.) 7And the men pursued after them on the road of the Jordan to the fords. And they had shut the gate after when the pursuers had gone out after them.

8Now before they had laid down she went up to them on the roof. 9And she said to the men, “I know that Yahweh has given to you the land and that dread of you has fallen on us and that all who dwell in the land have melted from your face. 10For we have heard that Yahweh dried up the water of the Sea of Reeds from before your face when you went out from Egypt, and what you did to two of the kings of the Amorite who were on the other side of the Jordan, to Sihon and to Og, them whom you completely destroyed. 11And we have heard and our hearts have melted and the spirit in a man no longer stands from your face. For Yahweh your God, he is God in the heavens above and on the earth below. 12And now, please swear to me by Yahweh because I am doing kindness with you, that you also will do kindness with the house of my father and will give to me a sign of truth, 13and you will keep alive my father and my mother and my brothers and my sisters and all who belong to them. And you will rescue our lives from death.” 14And the men said to her, “Our lives in place of yours to death! If you do not tell this matter of ours, then it will happen when Yahweh gives to us the land that we will do kindness and faithfulness with you.”

15And she lowered them down by a rope out through the window because her house was in the side of the wall, and she was dwelling in the wall. 16And she said to them, “Go to the mountain lest the ones pursuing meet you. And hide there three days until the ones pursuing have returned. And after you may go to your way.” 17And the men said to her, “We will be innocent from this oath of yours which you have caused us to swear: 18Behold, we are about to come into the land! You shall tie this cord of thread of crimson in the window by which you lowered us down, and your father and your mother and your brothers and all the house of your father you shall gather to you at the house. 19And it will be that anyone who goes out from the doors of your house to the outside, his blood will be on his head and we will be innocent. But anyone who is with you in the house, his blood will be on our heads if a hand should be on him. 20And if you tell this matter of ours, then we will be innocent from the oath of yours which you caused us to swear.” 21And she said, “According to your words, so be it.” And she sent them away and they went. And she tied the cord of crimson in the window.

22And they went and came to the mountain and they stayed there three days until the pursuers had returned. And the ones pursuing searched in all the road and did not find them. 23And the two men returned and went down from the mountain and crossed over and came to Joshua the son of Nun. And they recounted to him all that was finding them. 24And they said to Joshua, “Truly Yahweh has given all the land into our hand. And also all those who dwell in the land are melting away from our face.”
