Joshua 2:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ And she said to them: Get ye up to the mountains, lest perhaps they meet you as they return: and there lie ye hid three days, till they come back, and so you shall go on your way.

¹⁷ And they said to her: We shall be blameless of this oath, which thou hast made us swear:

¹⁸ If when we come into the land, this scarlet cord be a sign, and thou tie it in the window, by which thou hast let us down: and gather together thy father and mother, and brethren and all thy kindred into thy house.
