Joshua 2

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 misit ergo Iosue filius Nun de Setthim duos viros exploratores abscondito et dixit eis ite et considerate terram urbemque Hiericho qui pergentes ingressi sunt domum mulieris meretricis nomine Raab et quieverunt apud eam

2 nuntiatumque est regi Hiericho et dictum ecce viri ingressi sunt huc per noctem de filiis Israhel ut explorarent terram

3 misitque rex Hiericho ad Raab dicens educ viros qui venerunt ad te et ingressi sunt domum tuam exploratores quippe sunt et omnem terram considerare venerunt

4 tollensque mulier viros abscondit et ait fateor venerunt ad me sed nesciebam unde essent

5 cumque porta clauderetur in tenebris et illi pariter exierunt nescio quo abierunt persequimini cito et conprehendetis eos

6 ipsa autem fecit ascendere viros in solarium domus suae operuitque eos lini stipula quae ibi erat

7 hii autem qui missi fuerant secuti sunt eos per viam quae ducit ad vadum Iordanis illisque egressis statim porta clausa est

8 necdum obdormierant qui latebant et ecce mulier ascendit ad eos et ait

9 novi quod tradiderit Dominus vobis terram etenim inruit in nos terror vester et elanguerunt omnes habitatores terrae

10 audivimus quod siccaverit Dominus aquas maris Rubri ad vestrum introitum quando egressi estis ex Aegypto et quae feceritis duobus Amorreorum regibus qui erant trans Iordanem Seon et Og quos interfecistis

11 et haec audientes pertimuimus et elanguit cor nostrum nec remansit in nobis spiritus ad introitum vestrum Dominus enim Deus vester ipse est Deus in caelo sursum et in terra deorsum

12 nunc ergo iurate mihi per Dominum ut quomodo ego feci vobiscum misericordiam ita et vos faciatis cum domo patris mei detisque mihi signum verum

13 et salvetis patrem meum et matrem fratres ac sorores meas et omnia quae eorum sunt et eruatis animas nostras de morte

14 qui responderunt ei anima nostra sit pro vobis in mortem si tamen non prodideris nos cumque tradiderit nobis Dominus terram faciemus in te misericordiam et veritatem

15 dimisit ergo eos per funem de fenestra domus enim eius herebat muro

16 dixitque ad eos ad montana conscendite ne forte occurrant vobis revertentes ibique latete diebus tribus donec redeant et sic ibitis per viam vestram

17 qui dixerunt ad eam innoxii erimus a iuramento hoc quo adiurasti nos

18 si ingredientibus nobis terram signum fuerit funiculus iste coccineus et ligaveris eum in fenestra per quam nos dimisisti et patrem tuum ac matrem fratresque et omnem cognationem tuam congregaveris in domum tuam

19 qui ostium domus tuae egressus fuerit sanguis ipsius erit in caput eius et nos erimus alieni cunctorum autem sanguis qui tecum fuerint in domo redundabit in caput nostrum si eos aliquis tetigerit

20 quod si nos prodere volueris et sermonem istum proferre in medium erimus mundi ab hoc iuramento quo adiurasti nos

21 et illa respondit sicut locuti estis ita fiat dimittensque eos ut pergerent adpendit funiculum coccineum in fenestra

22 illi vero ambulantes pervenerunt ad montana et manserunt ibi tres dies donec reverterentur qui fuerant persecuti quaerentes enim per omnem viam non reppererunt eos

23 quibus urbem ingressis reversi sunt et descenderunt exploratores de monte et Iordane transmisso venerunt ad Iosue filium Nun narraveruntque ei omnia quae acciderant sibi

24 atque dixerunt tradidit Dominus in manus nostras omnem terram hanc et timore prostrati sunt cuncti habitatores eius

Revised Standard Version RSV

1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent two men secretly from Shittim as spies, saying, "Go, view the land, especially Jericho." And they went, and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lodged there.

2 And it was told the king of Jericho, "Behold, certain men of Israel have come here tonight to search out the land."

3 Then the king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, "Bring forth the men that have come to you, who entered your house; for they have come to search out all the land."

4 But the woman had taken the two men and hidden them; and she said, "True, men came to me, but I did not know where they came from;

5 and when the gate was to be closed, at dark, the men went out; where the men went I do not know; pursue them quickly, for you will overtake them."

6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax which she had laid in order on the roof.

7 So the men pursued after them on the way to the Jordan as far as the fords; and as soon as the pursuers had gone out, the gate was shut.

8 Before they lay down, she came up to them on the roof,

9 and said to the men, "I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.

10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites that were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

11 And as soon as we heard it, our hearts melted, and there was no courage left in any man, because of you; for the LORD your God is he who is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.

12 Now then, swear to me by the LORD that as I have dealt kindly with you, you also will deal kindly with my father's house, and give me a sure sign,

13 and save alive my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, and all who belong to them, and deliver our lives from death."

14 And the men said to her, "Our life for yours! If you do not tell this business of ours, then we will deal kindly and faithfully with you when the LORD gives us the land."

15 Then she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was built into the city wall, so that she dwelt in the wall.

16 And she said to them, "Go into the hills, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have returned; then afterward you may go your way."

17 The men said to her, "We will be guiltless with respect to this oath of yours which you have made us swear.

18 Behold, when we come into the land, you shall bind this scarlet cord in the window through which you let us down; and you shall gather into your house your father and mother, your brothers, and all your father's household.

19 If any one goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we shall be guiltless; but if a hand is laid upon any one who is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head.

20 But if you tell this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless with respect to your oath which you have made us swear."

21 And she said, "According to your words, so be it." Then she sent them away, and they departed; and she bound the scarlet cord in the window.

22 They departed, and went into the hills, and remained there three days, until the pursuers returned; for the pursuers had made search all along the way and found nothing.

23 Then the two men came down again from the hills, and passed over and came to Joshua the son of Nun; and they told him all that had befallen them.

24 And they said to Joshua, "Truly the LORD has given all the land into our hands; and moreover all the inhabitants of the land are fainthearted because of us."
