10 For we have heard how the Lord adried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and bwhat you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you cutterly destroyed.
11 And as soon as we aheard these things, bour hearts melted; neither did there remain any more courage in anyone because of you, for cthe Lord your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.
12 Now therefore, I beg you, aswear to me by the Lord, since I have shown you kindness, that you also will show kindness to bmy father’s house, and cgive me a true token,
13 and aspare my father, my mother, my brothers, my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.”
14 So the men answered her, “Our lives for yours, if none of you tell this business of ours. And it shall be, when the Lord has given us the land, that awe will deal kindly and truly with you.”
15 Then she alet them down by a rope through the window, for her house was on the city wall; she dwelt on the wall.
16 And she said to them, “Get to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you. Hide there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward you may go your way.”
