Joshua 2:20 in Context — Joshua 2

18 Eis que, quando nós entrarmos na terra, tu atarás este cordão de escarlate à janela pela qual nos fizeste descer: e tu juntarás em tua casa teu pai e tua mãe, teus irmãos e toda a família de teu pai.

19 Qualquer um que sair fora das portas de tua casa, seu sangue será sobre sua cabeça, e nós sem culpa. Mas qualquer um que estiver em casa contigo, seu sangue será sobre nossa cabeça, se mão o tocar.

20 E se tu denunciares este nosso negócio, nós seremos desobrigados deste teu juramento com que nos fizeste jurar.

21 E ela respondeu: Seja assim como dissestes. Logo os despediu, e se foram: e ela atou o cordão de escarlate à janela.

22 E caminhando eles, chegaram ao monte, e estiveram ali três dias, até que os que os seguiam se houvessem voltado: e os que os seguiram, buscaram por todo aquele caminho, mas não os acharam.
