Joshua 2

KJV

1  And Joshua³⁰⁹¹ the son¹¹²¹ of Nun⁵¹²⁶ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ Shittim⁷⁸⁵¹ two⁸¹⁴⁷ men³⁷⁶ to spy⁷²⁷⁰ secretly,²⁷⁹¹ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Go¹⁹⁸⁰ view^{7200 853} the land,⁷⁷⁶ even Jericho.³⁴⁰⁵ And they went,¹⁹⁸⁰ and came into⁹³⁵ a harlot's^{802 2181} house,¹⁰⁰⁴ named⁸⁰³⁴ Rahab,⁷³⁴³ and lodged⁷⁹⁰¹ there.⁸⁰³³

2  And it was told⁵⁵⁹ the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Jericho,³⁴⁰⁵ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ there came⁹³⁵ men³⁷⁶ in hither²⁰⁰⁸ tonight³⁹¹⁵ of the children^{4480 1121} of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ to search out^{2658 853} the country.⁷⁷⁶

3  And the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Jericho³⁴⁰⁵ sent⁷⁹⁷¹ unto⁴¹³ Rahab,⁷³⁴³ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Bring forth³³¹⁸ the men³⁷⁶ that are come⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ thee, which⁸³⁴ are entered⁹³⁵ into thine house:¹⁰⁰⁴ for³⁵⁸⁸ they be come⁹³⁵ to search out^{2658 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the country.⁷⁷⁶

4  And the woman⁸⁰² took^{3947 853} the two⁸¹⁴⁷ men,³⁷⁶ and hid⁶⁸⁴⁵ them, and said⁵⁵⁹ thus,³⁶⁵¹ There came⁹³⁵ men³⁷⁶ unto⁴¹³ me, but I knew³⁰⁴⁵ not³⁸⁰⁸ whence^{4480 370} they¹⁹⁹² were:

5  And it came to pass¹⁹⁶¹ about the time of shutting⁵⁴⁶² of the gate,⁸¹⁷⁹ when it was dark,²⁸²² that the men³⁷⁶ went out:³³¹⁸ whither⁵⁷⁵ the men³⁷⁶ went¹⁹⁸⁰ I know³⁰⁴⁵ not:³⁸⁰⁸ pursue⁷²⁹¹ after³¹⁰ them quickly;⁴¹¹⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ ye shall overtake⁵³⁸¹ them.

6  But she¹⁹³¹ had brought them up⁵⁹²⁷ to the roof¹⁴⁰⁶ of the house, and hid²⁹³⁴ them with the stalks⁶⁰⁸⁶ of flax,⁶⁵⁹³ which she had laid in order⁶¹⁸⁶ upon⁵⁹²¹ the roof.¹⁴⁰⁶

7  And the men³⁷⁶ pursued⁷²⁹¹ after³¹⁰ them the way¹⁸⁷⁰ to Jordan³³⁸³ unto⁵⁹²¹ the fords:⁴⁵⁶⁹ and as soon as^{310 834} they which pursued⁷²⁹¹ after³¹⁰ them were gone out,³³¹⁸ they shut⁵⁴⁶² the gate.⁸¹⁷⁹

8  And before²⁹⁶² they¹⁹⁹² were laid down,⁷⁹⁰¹ she¹⁹³¹ came up⁵⁹²⁷ unto⁵⁹²¹ them upon⁵⁹²¹ the roof;¹⁴⁰⁶

9  And she said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ the men,³⁷⁶ I know³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath given⁵⁴¹⁴ you ⁸⁵³ the land,⁷⁷⁶ and that³⁵⁸⁸ your terror³⁶⁷ is fallen⁵³⁰⁷ upon⁵⁹²¹ us, and that³⁵⁸⁸ all³⁶⁰⁵ the inhabitants³⁴²⁷ of the land⁷⁷⁶ faint⁴¹²⁷ because of^{4480 6440} you.

10  For³⁵⁸⁸ we have heard^{8085 853} how⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ dried up^{3001 853} the water⁴³²⁵ of the Red⁵⁴⁸⁸ sea³²²⁰ for^{4480 6440} you, when ye came out³³¹⁸ of Egypt;^{4480 4714} and what⁸³⁴ ye did⁶²¹³ unto the two⁸¹⁴⁷ kings⁴⁴²⁸ of the Amorites,⁵⁶⁷ that⁸³⁴ were on the other side⁵⁶⁷⁶ Jordan,³³⁸³ Sihon⁵⁵¹¹ and Og,⁵⁷⁴⁷ whom⁸³⁴ ye utterly destroyed.^{2763 853}

11  And as soon as we had heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ these things, our hearts³⁸²⁴ did melt,⁴⁵⁴⁹ neither³⁸⁰⁸ did there remain⁶⁹⁶⁵ any more⁵⁷⁵⁰ courage⁷³⁰⁷ in any man³⁷⁶ because of^{4480 6440} you: for³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ your God,⁴³⁰ he¹⁹³¹ is God⁴³⁰ in heaven⁸⁰⁶⁴ above,^{4480 4605} and in⁵⁹²¹ earth⁷⁷⁶ beneath.^{4480 8478}

12  Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore, I pray⁴⁹⁹⁴ you, swear⁷⁶⁵⁰ unto me by the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ since³⁵⁸⁸ I have showed you kindness,^{6213 5973 2617} that ye⁸⁵⁹ will also¹⁵⁷¹ show⁶²¹³ kindness²⁶¹⁷ unto⁵⁹⁷³ my father's¹ house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and give⁵⁴¹⁴ me a true⁵⁷¹ token:²²⁶

13  And that ye will save alive^{2421 853} my father,¹ and my mother,⁵¹⁷ and my brethren,²⁵¹ and my sisters,²⁶⁹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ that⁸³⁴ they have, and deliver^{5337 853} our lives⁵³¹⁵ from death.^{4480 4194}

14  And the men³⁷⁶ answered⁵⁵⁹ her, Our life⁵³¹⁵ for⁸⁴⁷⁸ yours, if⁵¹⁸ ye utter⁵⁰⁴⁶ not^{3808 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ our business.¹⁶⁹⁷ And it shall be,¹⁹⁶¹ when the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath given⁵⁴¹⁴ us ⁸⁵³ the land,⁷⁷⁶ that we will deal⁶²¹³ kindly²⁶¹⁷ and truly⁵⁷¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ thee.

15  Then she let them down³³⁸¹ by a cord²²⁵⁶ through¹¹⁵⁷ the window:²⁴⁷⁴ for³⁵⁸⁸ her house¹⁰⁰⁴ was upon the town²³⁴⁶ wall,⁷⁰²³ and she¹⁹³¹ dwelt³⁴²⁷ upon the wall.²³⁴⁶

16  And she said⁵⁵⁹ unto them, Get¹⁹⁸⁰ you to the mountain,²⁰²² lest⁶⁴³⁵ the pursuers⁷²⁹¹ meet⁶²⁹³ you; and hide yourselves²²⁴⁷ there⁸⁰³³ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ days,³¹¹⁷ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the pursuers⁷²⁹¹ be returned:⁷⁷²⁵ and afterward³¹⁰ may ye go¹⁹⁸⁰ your way.¹⁸⁷⁰

17  And the men³⁷⁶ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ her, We⁵⁸⁷ will be blameless⁵³⁵⁵ of this thine oath^{4480 7621 2088} which⁸³⁴ thou hast made us swear.⁷⁶⁵⁰

18  Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ when we⁵⁸⁷ come⁹³⁵ into the land,⁷⁷⁶ thou shalt bind^{7194 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ line⁸⁶¹⁵ of scarlet⁸¹⁴⁴ thread²³³⁹ in the window²⁴⁷⁴ which⁸³⁴ thou didst let us down³³⁸¹ by: and thou shalt bring⁶²² thy father,¹ and thy mother,⁵¹⁷ and thy brethren,²⁵¹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ thy father's¹ household,¹⁰⁰⁴ home¹⁰⁰⁴ unto⁴¹³ thee.

19  And it shall be,¹⁹⁶¹ that whosoever^{3605 834} shall go out³³¹⁸ of the doors^{4480 1817} of thy house¹⁰⁰⁴ into the street,²³⁵¹ his blood¹⁸¹⁸ shall be upon his head,⁷²¹⁸ and we⁵⁸⁷ will be guiltless:⁵³⁵⁵ and whosoever^{3605 834} shall be¹⁹⁶¹ with⁸⁵⁴ thee in the house,¹⁰⁰⁴ his blood¹⁸¹⁸ shall be on our head,⁷²¹⁸ if⁵¹⁸ any hand³⁰²⁷ be¹⁹⁶¹ upon him.

20  And if⁵¹⁸ thou utter^{5046 853} this²⁰⁸⁸ our business,¹⁶⁹⁷ then we will be¹⁹⁶¹ quit⁵³⁵⁵ of thine oath^{4480 7621} which⁸³⁴ thou hast made us to swear.⁷⁶⁵⁰

21  And she said,⁵⁵⁹ According unto your words,¹⁶⁹⁷ so³⁶⁵¹ be it.¹⁹³¹ And she sent them away,⁷⁹⁷¹ and they departed:¹⁹⁸⁰ and she bound^{7194 853} the scarlet⁸¹⁴⁴ line⁸⁶¹⁵ in the window.²⁴⁷⁴

22  And they went,¹⁹⁸⁰ and came⁹³⁵ unto the mountain,²⁰²² and abode³⁴²⁷ there⁸⁰³³ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ days,³¹¹⁷ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the pursuers⁷²⁹¹ were returned:⁷⁷²⁵ and the pursuers⁷²⁹¹ sought¹²⁴⁵ them throughout all³⁶⁰⁵ the way,¹⁸⁷⁰ but found⁴⁶⁷² them not.³⁸⁰⁸

23  So the two⁸¹⁴⁷ men³⁷⁶ returned,⁷⁷²⁵ and descended³³⁸¹ from the mountain,^{4480 2022} and passed over,⁵⁶⁷⁴ and came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ Joshua³⁰⁹¹ the son¹¹²¹ of Nun,⁵¹²⁶ and told⁵⁶⁰⁸ him ⁸⁵³ all³⁶⁰⁵ things that befell⁴⁶⁷² them:

24  And they said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ Joshua,³⁰⁹¹ Truly³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ into our hands^{3027 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the land;⁷⁷⁶ for even¹⁵⁷¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the inhabitants³⁴²⁷ of the country⁷⁷⁶ do faint⁴¹²⁷ because of^{4480 6440} us.

1 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυη ἐκ Σαττιν δύο νεανίσκους κατασκοπεῦσαι λέγων ἀνάβητε καὶ ἴδετε τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν Ιεριχω καὶ πορευθέντες εἰσήλθοσαν οἱ δύο νεανίσκοι εἰς Ιεριχω καὶ εἰσήλθοσαν εἰς οἰκίαν γυναικὸς πόρνης ᾗ ὄνομα Ρααβ καὶ κατέλυσαν ἐκεῖ

2 καὶ ἀπηγγέλη τῷ βασιλεῖ Ιεριχω λέγοντες εἰσπεπόρευνται ὧδε ἄνδρες τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ κατασκοπεῦσαι τὴν γῆν

3 καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ιεριχω καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Ρααβ λέγων ἐξάγαγε τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς εἰσπεπορευμένους εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν σου τὴν νύκτα κατασκοπεῦσαι γὰρ τὴν γῆν ἥκασιν

4 καὶ λαβοῦσα ἡ γυνὴ τοὺς ἄνδρας ἔκρυψεν αὐτοὺς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς λέγουσα εἰσεληλύθασιν πρός με οἱ ἄνδρες

5 ὡς δὲ ἡ πύλη ἐκλείετο ἐν τῷ σκότει καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες ἐξῆλθον οὐκ ἐπίσταμαι ποῦ πεπόρευνται καταδιώξατε ὀπίσω αὐτῶν εἰ καταλήμψεσθε αὐτούς

6 αὐτὴ δὲ ἀνεβίβασεν αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ τὸ δῶμα καὶ ἔκρυψεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ λινοκαλάμῃ τῇ ἐστοιβασμένῃ αὐτῇ ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος

7 καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες κατεδίωξαν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ὁδὸν τὴν ἐπὶ τοῦ Ιορδάνου ἐπὶ τὰς διαβάσεις καὶ ἡ πύλη ἐκλείσθη καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐξήλθοσαν οἱ διώκοντες ὀπίσω αὐτῶν

8 καὶ αὐτοὶ δὲ πρὶν ἢ κοιμηθῆναι αὐτούς καὶ αὐτὴ ἀνέβη ἐπὶ τὸ δῶμα πρὸς αὐτοὺς

9 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς ἐπίσταμαι ὅτι δέδωκεν ὑμῖν κύριος τὴν γῆν ἐπιπέπτωκεν γὰρ ὁ φόβος ὑμῶν ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς

10 ἀκηκόαμεν γὰρ ὅτι κατεξήρανεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς τὴν ἐρυθρὰν θάλασσαν ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν ὅτε ἐξεπορεύεσθε ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου καὶ ὅσα ἐποίησεν τοῖς δυσὶ βασιλεῦσιν τῶν Αμορραίων οἳ ἦσαν πέραν τοῦ Ιορδάνου τῷ Σηων καὶ Ωγ οὓς ἐξωλεθρεύσατε αὐτούς

11 καὶ ἀκούσαντες ἡμεῖς ἐξέστημεν τῇ καρδίᾳ ἡμῶν καὶ οὐκ ἔστη ἔτι πνεῦμα ἐν οὐδενὶ ἡμῶν ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν ὅτι κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν θεὸς ἐν οὐρανῷ ἄνω καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς κάτω

12 καὶ νῦν ὀμόσατέ μοι κύριον τὸν θεόν ὅτι ποιῶ ὑμῖν ἔλεος καὶ ποιήσετε καὶ ὑμεῖς ἔλεος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρός μου

13 καὶ ζωγρήσετε τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου καὶ τὴν μητέρα μου καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφούς μου καὶ πάντα τὸν οἶκόν μου καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐστὶν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐξελεῖσθε τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ θανάτου

14 καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῇ οἱ ἄνδρες ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν ἀνθ᾽ ὑμῶν εἰς θάνατον καὶ αὐτὴ εἶπεν ὡς ἂν παραδῷ κύριος ὑμῖν τὴν πόλιν ποιήσετε εἰς ἐμὲ ἔλεος καὶ ἀλήθειαν

15 καὶ κατεχάλασεν αὐτοὺς διὰ τῆς θυρίδος

16 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν ἀπέλθετε μὴ συναντήσωσιν ὑμῖν οἱ καταδιώκοντες καὶ κρυβήσεσθε ἐκεῖ τρεῖς ἡμέρας ἕως ἂν ἀποστρέψωσιν οἱ καταδιώκοντες ὀπίσω ὑμῶν καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἀπελεύσεσθε εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν ὑμῶν

17 καὶ εἶπαν οἱ ἄνδρες πρὸς αὐτήν ἀθῷοί ἐσμεν τῷ ὅρκῳ σου τούτῳ

18 ἰδοὺ ἡμεῖς εἰσπορευόμεθα εἰς μέρος τῆς πόλεως καὶ θήσεις τὸ σημεῖον τὸ σπαρτίον τὸ κόκκινον τοῦτο ἐκδήσεις εἰς τὴν θυρίδα δι᾽ ἧς κατεβίβασας ἡμᾶς δι᾽ αὐτῆς τὸν δὲ πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν μητέρα σου καὶ τοὺς ἀδελφούς σου καὶ πάντα τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός σου συνάξεις πρὸς σεαυτὴν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν σου

19 καὶ ἔσται πᾶς ὃς ἂν ἐξέλθῃ τὴν θύραν τῆς οἰκίας σου ἔξω ἔνοχος ἑαυτῷ ἔσται ἡμεῖς δὲ ἀθῷοι τῷ ὅρκῳ σου τούτῳ καὶ ὅσοι ἐὰν γένωνται μετὰ σοῦ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ σου ἡμεῖς ἔνοχοι ἐσόμεθα

20 ἐὰν δέ τις ἡμᾶς ἀδικήσῃ ἢ καὶ ἀποκαλύψῃ τοὺς λόγους ἡμῶν τούτους ἐσόμεθα ἀθῷοι τῷ ὅρκῳ σου τούτῳ

21 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα ὑμῶν οὕτως ἔστω καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτούς

22 καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν καὶ ἤλθοσαν εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ κατέμειναν ἐκεῖ τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ ἐξεζήτησαν οἱ καταδιώκοντες πάσας τὰς ὁδοὺς καὶ οὐχ εὕροσαν

23 καὶ ὑπέστρεψαν οἱ δύο νεανίσκοι καὶ κατέβησαν ἐκ τοῦ ὄρους καὶ διέβησαν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν υἱὸν Ναυη καὶ διηγήσαντο αὐτῷ πάντα τὰ συμβεβηκότα αὐτοῖς

24 καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Ἰησοῦν ὅτι παρέδωκεν κύριος πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐν χειρὶ ἡμῶν καὶ κατέπτηκεν πᾶς ὁ κατοικῶν τὴν γῆν ἐκείνην ἀφ᾽ ἡμῶν

1 Misit igitur Josue filius Nun de Setim duos viros exploratores in abscondito: et dixit eis: Ite, et considerate terram, urbemque Jericho. Qui pergentes ingressi sunt domum mulieris meretricis, nomine Rahab, et quieverunt apud eam.

2 Nuntiatumque est regi Jericho, et dictum: Ecce viri ingressi sunt huc per noctem de filiis Israël, ut explorarent terram.

3 Misitque rex Jericho ad Rahab, dicens: Educ viros, qui venerunt ad te, et ingressi sunt domum tuam: exploratores quippe sunt, et omnem terram considerare venerunt.

4 Tollensque mulier viros, abscondit, et ait: Fateor, venerunt ad me, sed nesciebam unde essent:

5 cumque porta clauderetur in tenebris, et illi pariter exierunt; nescio quo abierunt: persequimini cito, et comprehendetis eos.

6 Ipsa autem fecit ascendere viros in solarium domus suæ, operuitque eos stipula lini, quæ ibi erat.

7 Hi autem, qui missi fuerant, secuti sunt eos per viam, quæ ducit ad vadum Jordanis: illisque egressis statim porta clausa est.

8 Necdum obdormierant qui latebant, et ecce mulier ascendit ad eos, et ait:

9 Novi quod Dominus tradiderit vobis terram: etenim irruit in nos terror vester, et elanguerunt omnes habitatores terræ.

10 Audivimus quod siccaverit Dominus aquas maris Rubri ad vestrum introitum, quando egressi estis ex Ægypto: et quæ feceritis duobus Amorrhæorum regibus, qui erant trans Jordanem, Sehon et Og, quos interfecistis.

11 Et hæc audientes pertimuimus, et elanguit cor nostrum, nec remansit in nobis spiritus ad introitum vestrum: Dominus enim Deus vester ipse est Deus in cælo sursum et in terra deorsum.

12 Nunc ergo jurate mihi per Dominum, ut quomodo ego misericordiam feci vobiscum, ita et vos faciatis cum domo patris mei: detisque mihi verum signum,

13 ut salvetis patrem meum et matrem, et fratres ac sorores meas, et omnia quæ illorum sunt, et eruatis animas nostras a morte.

14 Qui responderunt ei: Anima nostra sit pro vobis in mortem, si tamen non prodideris nos: cumque tradiderit nobis Dominus terram, faciemus in te misericordiam et veritatem.

15 Demisit ergo eos per funem de fenestra: domus enim ejus hærebat muro.

16 Dixitque ad eos: Ad montana conscendite, ne forte occurrant vobis revertentes: ibique latitate tribus diebus, donec redeant, et sic ibitis per viam vestram.

17 Qui dixerunt ad eam: Innoxii erimus a juramento hoc, quo adjurasti nos:

18 si ingredientibus nobis terram, signum fuerit funiculus iste coccineus, et ligaveris eum in fenestra, per quam demisisti nos: et patrem tuum ac matrem, fratresque et omnem cognationem tuam congregaveris in domum tuam.

19 Qui ostium domus tuæ egressus fuerit, sanguis ipsius erit in caput ejus, et nos erimus alieni. Cunctorum autem sanguis, qui tecum in domo fuerint, redundabit in caput nostrum, si eos aliquis tetigerit.

20 Quod si nos prodere volueris, et sermonem istum proferre in medium, erimus mundi ab hoc juramento, quo adjurasti nos.
