8二人還沒有躺臥，女人就上房頂，到他們那裡，9對他們說：我 知道耶和華已經把這地賜給你們，並且因你們的緣故我們都驚 慌了。這地的一切居民在你們面前心都消化了；【書 2:8-9】 8Before the spies lay down for the night, she went up on the roof 9and said to them, "I know that the LORD has given this land to you and that a great fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you. 【Josh 2:8-9】

11我們一聽見這些事，心就消化了。因你們的緣故，並無一人有膽 氣。耶和華─你們的　 神本是上天下地的　神。12現在我既是恩待 你們，求你們指著耶和華向我起誓，也要恩待我父家，並給我一 個實在的證據，13要救活我的父母、弟兄、姊妹，和一切屬他們的， 拯救我們性命不死。【書 2:11-13】 11When we heard of it, our hearts melted and everyone's courage failed because of you, for the LORD your God is God in heaven above and on the earth below. 12Now then, please swear to me by the LORD that you will show kindness to my family, because I have shown kindness to you. Give me a sure sign 13that you will spare the lives of my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, and all who belong to them, and that you will save us from death." 【Josh 2:11-13】

Some of the Israelites have come here tonight to spy out the land." 3So the king of Jericho sent this message to Rahab: "Bring out the men who came to you and entered your house, because they have come to spy out the whole land." 4But the woman had taken the two men and hidden them.

I don't know which way they went. Go after them quickly. You may catch up with them." 6(But she had taken them up to the roof and hidden them under the stalks of flax she had laid out on the roof.) 7So the men set out in pursuit of the spies on the road that leads to the fords of the Jordan, and as soon as the pursuers had gone out, the gate was shut. 【Josh 2:5-7】
