12 And now, swear now to me by Jehovah, as I did with you mercy, and do ye also mercy with the house of my father, and give to me a true sign. 13 And preserve alive my father and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all which is to them, and take away our souls from death. 14 And the men will say to her, Our soul instead of yours to die if ye shall not announce this our word. And it being in Jehovah's giving to us the land, and we did with thee mercy and truth. 15 And she will let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was upon the wall side and she will dwell upon the wall. 16 And she will say to them, Go to the mountain, lest they pursuing shall meet with you; and hide yourselves there three days till they pursuing turn back: and afterward ye shall go to your way.
