1 Joshua son of Nun sent two spies out from Shittim secretly and instructed them: |Find out what you can about the land, especially Jericho.| They stopped at the house of a prostitute named Rahab and spent the night there. 2 The king of Jericho received this report: |Note well! Israelite men have come here tonight to spy on the land.| 3 So the king of Jericho sent this order to Rahab: |Turn over the men who came to you--the ones who came to your house--for they have come to spy on the whole land!| Joshua 2:1-3, New English Translation.
