And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 sentH7971 out of ShittimH7851 twoH8147 menH582 to spyH7270 secretlyH2791, sayingH559, GoH3212 viewH7200 the landH776, even JerichoH3405. And they wentH3212, and cameH935 into an harlot'sH2181 houseH802+H1004, namedH8034 RahabH7343, and lodgedH7901 there. {sent: or, had sent} {lodged: Heb. lay}
And it was toldH559 the kingH4428 of JerichoH3405, sayingH559, Behold, there cameH935 menH582 in hither to nightH3915 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 to search outH2658 the countryH776.
And the kingH4428 of JerichoH3405 sentH7971 unto RahabH7343, sayingH559, Bring forthH3318 the menH582 that are comeH935 to thee, which are enteredH935 into thine houseH1004: for they be comeH935 to search outH2658 all the countryH776.
And the womanH802 tookH3947 the twoH8147 menH582, and hidH6845 them, and saidH559 thus, There cameH935 menH582 unto me, but I wistH3045 not whenceH370 they were:
And it came to pass about the time of shuttingH5462 of the gateH8179, when it was darkH2822, that the menH582 went outH3318: whither the menH582 wentH1980 I wotH3045 not: pursueH7291 afterH310 them quicklyH4118; for ye shall overtakeH5381 them.
But she had brought them upH5927 to the roofH1406 of the house, and hidH2934 them with the stalksH6086 of flaxH6593, which she had laid in orderH6186 upon the roofH1406.
And the menH582 pursuedH7291 afterH310 them the wayH1870 to JordanH3383 unto the fordsH4569: and as soon as they which pursuedH7291 afterH310 them were gone outH3318, they shutH5462 the gateH8179.
And before they were laid downH7901, she came upH5927 unto them upon the roofH1406;
And she saidH559 unto the menH582, I knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 you the landH776, and that your terrorH367 is fallenH5307 upon us, and that all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 faintH4127 becauseH6440 of you. {faint: Heb. melt}
For we have heardH8085 how the LORDH3068 dried upH3001 the waterH4325 of the RedH5488 seaH3220 for youH6440, when ye came outH3318 of EgyptH4714; and what ye didH6213 unto the twoH8147 kingsH4428 of the AmoritesH567, that were on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383, SihonH5511 and OgH5747, whom ye utterly destroyedH2763.
And as soon as we had heardH8085 these things, our heartsH3824 did meltH4549, neither did there remainH6965 any more courageH7307 in any manH376, becauseH6440 of you: for the LORDH3068 your GodH430, he is GodH430 in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, and in earthH776 beneath. {did there…: Heb. rose up}
Now therefore, I pray you, swearH7650 unto me by the LORDH3068, sinceH3588 I have shewedH6213 you kindnessH2617, that ye will also shewH6213 kindnessH2617 unto my father'sH1 houseH1004, and giveH5414 me a trueH571 tokenH226:
And that ye will save aliveH2421 my fatherH1, and my motherH517, and my brethrenH251, and my sistersH269, and all that they have, and deliverH5337 our livesH5315 from deathH4194.
And the menH582 answeredH559 her, Our lifeH5315 for yoursH4191, if ye utterH5046 not this our businessH1697. And it shall be, when the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 us the landH776, that we will dealH6213 kindlyH2617 and trulyH571 with thee. {for…: Heb. instead of you to die}
Then she let them downH3381 by a cordH2256 throughH1157 the windowH2474: for her houseH1004 was upon the townH7023 wallH2346, and she dweltH3427 upon the wallH2346.
And she saidH559 unto them, GetH3212 you to the mountainH2022, lest the pursuersH7291 meetH6293 you; and hideH2247 yourselves there threeH7969 daysH3117, until the pursuersH7291 be returnedH7725: and afterwardH310 may ye goH3212 your wayH1870.
And the menH582 saidH559 unto her, We will be blamelessH5355 of this thine oathH7621 which thou hast made us swearH7650.
Behold, when we comeH935 into the landH776, thou shalt bindH7194 this lineH8615 of scarletH8144 threadH2339 in the windowH2474 which thou didst let us down byH3381: and thou shalt bringH622 thy fatherH1, and thy motherH517, and thy brethrenH251, and all thy father'sH1 householdH1004, homeH1004 unto thee. {bring: Heb. gather}
And it shall be, that whosoeverH834 shall go outH3318 of the doorsH1817 of thy houseH1004 into the streetH2351, his bloodH1818 shall be upon his headH7218, and we will be guiltlessH5355: and whosoever shall be with thee in the houseH1004, his bloodH1818 shall be on our headH7218, if any handH3027 be upon him.
And if thou utterH5046 this our businessH1697, then we will be quitH5355 of thine oathH7621 which thou hast made us to swearH7650.
And she saidH559, According unto your wordsH1697, so be it. And she sent them awayH7971, and they departedH3212: and she boundH7194 the scarletH8144 lineH8615 in the windowH2474.
And they wentH3212, and cameH935 unto the mountainH2022, and abodeH3427 there threeH7969 daysH3117, until the pursuersH7291 were returnedH7725: and the pursuersH7291 soughtH1245 them throughout all the wayH1870, but foundH4672 them not.
So the twoH8147 menH582 returnedH7725, and descendedH3381 from the mountainH2022, and passed overH5674, and cameH935 to JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, and toldH5608 him all things that befellH4672 them:
And they saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, TrulyH3588 the LORDH3068 hath deliveredH5414 into our handsH3027 all the landH776; for even all the inhabitantsH3427 of the countryH776 do faintH4127 becauseH6440 of us. {faint: Heb. melt}

And the womanH802 conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 a sonH1121: and when she sawH7200 him that he was a goodlyH2896 child, she hidH6845 him threeH7969 monthsH3391.
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 spakeH559 to the HebrewH5680 midwivesH3205, of which the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was ShiphrahH8236, and the nameH8034 of the otherH8145 PuahH6326:
And he saidH559, When ye do the office of a midwifeH3205 to the Hebrew womenH5680, and seeH7200 them upon the stoolsH70; if it be a sonH1121, then ye shall killH4191 him: but if it be a daughterH1323, then she shall liveH2425.
But the midwivesH3205 fearedH3372 GodH430, and didH6213 not as the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 commandedH1696 them, but savedH2421 the men childrenH3206 aliveH2421.
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 calledH7121 for the midwivesH3205, and saidH559 unto them, WhyH4069 have ye doneH6213 this thingH1697, and have savedH2421 the men childrenH3206 aliveH2421?
And the midwivesH3205 saidH559 unto PharaohH6547, Because the HebrewH5680 womenH802 are not as the Egyptian womenH4713; for they are livelyH2422, and are deliveredH3205 ereH2962 the midwivesH3205 come inH935 unto them.
Therefore GodH430 dealt wellH3190 with the midwivesH3205: and the peopleH5971 multipliedH7235, and waxed veryH3966 mightyH6105.
And it came to pass, because the midwivesH3205 fearedH3372 GodH430, that he madeH6213 them housesH1004.
And the womanH802 tookH3947 and spreadH6566 a coveringH4539 over the well'sH875 mouthH6440, and spreadH7849 ground cornH7383 thereon; and the thingH1697 was not knownH3045.
When thou buildestH1129 a newH2319 houseH1004, then thou shalt makeH6213 a battlementH4624 for thy roofH1406, that thou bringH7760 not bloodH1818 upon thine houseH1004, if any manH5307 fallH5307 from thence.
For it was so, when JezebelH348 cut offH3772 the prophetsH5030 of the LORDH3068, that ObadiahH5662 tookH3947 an hundredH3967 prophetsH5030, and hidH2244 them by fiftyH376+H2572 in a caveH4631, and fedH3557 them with breadH3899 and waterH4325.) {Jezebel: Heb. Izebel}
And it came to pass in an eveningtideH6153+H6256, that DavidH1732 aroseH6965 from off his bedH4904, and walkedH1980 upon the roofH1406 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004: and from the roofH1406 he sawH7200 a womanH802 washingH7364 herself; and the womanH802 was veryH3966 beautifulH2896 to look uponH4758.
Was it not toldH5046 my lordH113 what I didH6213 when JezebelH348 slewH2026 the prophetsH5030 of the LORDH3068, how I hidH2244 an hundredH3967 menH376 of the LORD'SH3068 prophetsH5030 by fiftyH2572 in a caveH4631, and fedH3557 them with breadH3899 and waterH4325?

But JehoshebaH3089, the daughterH1323 of kingH4428 JoramH3141, sisterH269 of AhaziahH274, tookH3947 JoashH3101 the sonH1121 of AhaziahH274, and stoleH1589 him from amongH8432 the king'sH4428 sonsH1121 which were slainH4191; and they hidH5641 him, even him and his nurseH3243, in the bedchamberH2315+H4296 fromH6440 AthaliahH6271, so that he was not slainH4191.
But the kingH4428 commandedH6680 JerahmeelH3396 the sonH1121 of HammelechH4429, and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of AzrielH5837, and ShelemiahH8018 the sonH1121 of AbdeelH5655, to takeH3947 BaruchH1263 the scribeH5608 and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030: but the LORDH3068 hidH5641 them. {of Hammelech: or, of the king}
