18 Behold, when we come into the land, you must bind this cord of scarlet thread in the window through which you let us down; and you shall bring your father and your mother and your brothers and all your father's household home to you. 19 And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the door of your house into the street, his blood shall be on his head, and we will be guiltless; and whosoever shall be with you in the house, his blood shall be on our heads, and we are guilty if any man should harm him. 20 And if you disclose this affair, then we will be absolved from this oath which you have made us swear. 21 And she said, According to your words, so be it. And she sent them away, and they departed; and she bound the scarlet cord in the window. Joshua 2:18-21, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
