harlot's house.
2 The king of Jericho, was told about the Israelite spies.3 The king of Jericho sent word to Rahab to bring out the spies.
4 After hiding the two men, she claimed that though they came to her, she did not know where they went.
5 She told the king's men to chase after them quickly. .
6 She then hid them on the roof of the house under stalks of flax.
7 So the king's men pursued them.
9 She told the spies, she knew that the Lord hath given them the land, that all the inhabitants of the land were terrified of them.
10 Also how the Lord dried up the water of the Red sea for them, when they came out of Egypt and utterly destroyed the Amorite kings before them.
11 And their hearts melted because of Israel, for their Lord God, He is God in heaven above, and on earth below.
12 She asked them to protect her family in return for her help.
14 And the men agreed.
15 Then she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was on the town wall..
16 And she told them to hide in the mountain, for three days, until the pursuers returned.
17 And the men said to her, "We swear to save you if you bring your family into your house and hang this red scarf on your window".
.19 "We are not to blame if your people go out of the house or if you tell of our agreement".
21 She agreed and sent them away, then bound the red scarf in the window.
