OET (OET-LV) And_to_two the_men who_had_spied_out DOM the_earth/land Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) he_said go the_house_of the_woman the_prostitute and_bring_out from_there DOM the_woman and_DOM every_of one_who to/for_her/it just_as you(pl)_swore to/for_her/it.

OET (OET-RV) Then Yehoshua commanded the two men who had spied on the area, “Go to the prostitute’s house and bring the woman out of it and all who are related to her, just as you promised her.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 5:13–6:27 Israel conquered Jericho by God’s power

The Israelites followed God’s instructions and marched around the wall of Jericho town. On the seventh day the wall of the town collapsed and they conquered the town. They killed everybody in it except for Rahab and her family.

Here are some other possible section headings:

The wall of Jericho fell

The conquering of Jericho

6:22a

Meanwhile, Joshua told the two men who had spied out the land,

Meanwhile, Joshua told: Joshua told the two men to go and rescue Rahab. This is something he had previously told them to do. There are several ways to make this clear:

Choose a way that is most natural in your language.

the two men who had spied out the land: This phrase refers to the two men who went to find out things about the town of Jericho in Chapter 2.

the land: The phrase the land refers to Jericho and the country around it.

6:22b

“Go into the house of the prostitute and bring out the woman

Go into the house of the prostitute: The phrase the house of the prostitute refers to the house of Rahab the prostitute. If it is not appropriate in your language to use the term prostitute repeatedly, it is possible to translate this as:

go into Rahab’s house

bring out the woman: It may be more natural in some languages to use either the proper name Rahab, or else refer to her by a pronoun. For example:

bring Rahab out

bring her out

6:22c

and all who are with her,

and all who are with her: The phrase all who are with her refers to Rahab’s family members who were with her in the house.

6:22d

just as you promised her.”

just as you promised her: The clause just as you promised her states the reason that the men must go into Rahab’s house and rescue her. They had promised her that they would do this.

promised: The word promised can also be translated as “swore.” The men promised to Rahab in 2:12–14 that they would rescue her and her family when they conquered the town.

General Comment on 6:22

In some languages it may be more natural to reorder the parts of this verse. For example:

22aMeanwhile, Joshua said to the two spies, 22d“Keep your promise. 22bGo to the prostitute’s house and bring her out, 22calong with all her family.” (NLT)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-result

בֹּ֖אוּ בֵּית־הָ⁠אִשָּׁ֣ה הַ⁠זּוֹנָ֑ה וְ⁠הוֹצִ֨יאוּ מִ⁠שָּׁ֤ם אֶת־הָֽ⁠אִשָּׁה֙ וְ⁠אֶת־כָּל־אֲשֶׁר־לָ֔⁠הּ כַּ⁠אֲשֶׁ֥ר נִשְׁבַּעְתֶּ֖ם לָֽ⁠הּ

go_into house_of the=woman the,prostitute and,bring_out from=there DOM the=woman and=DOM all/each/any/every which/who to/for=her/it just=as swore to/for=her/it

Joshua is describing one event before describing another event that preceded it. In your translation, you may wish to relate these events in the order in which they happened. Alternate translation: [Since you swore to the woman, the prostitute, that you would do this, enter her house and bring out from there the woman and all who are to her]

Note 2 topic: writing-participants

הָ⁠אִשָּׁ֣ה הַ⁠זּוֹנָ֑ה

the=woman the,prostitute

Joshua is using the phrase the woman, the prostitute to reintroduce Rahab as a participant in the story. If your language has its own way of reintroducing participants, you can use it here in your translation.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / youdual

נִשְׁבַּעְתֶּ֖ם

swore

Since Joshua is speaking to two men, you would be dual if your language uses that form. Otherwise, it would be plural.

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

6:22-23 The two spies fulfilled Joshua’s command and their oath to Rahab. Through the actions of God’s people, a pagan household saw that God is trustworthy.
• the prostitute’s house: See study note on 2:1.
• Moving Rahab and her family near the camp of Israel provided security.

OET (OET-LV) And_to_two the_men who_had_spied_out DOM the_earth/land Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) he_said go the_house_of the_woman the_prostitute and_bring_out from_there DOM the_woman and_DOM every_of one_who to/for_her/it just_as you(pl)_swore to/for_her/it.

OET (OET-RV) Then Yehoshua commanded the two men who had spied on the area, “Go to the prostitute’s house and bring the woman out of it and all who are related to her, just as you promised her.”

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
