Joshua 2:8 in Context — Joshua 2

6 Mas ela os havia feito subir ao terraço, e havia os escondido entre talos de linho que naquele terraço tinha posto.

7 E os homens foram atrás eles pelo caminho do Jordão, até os vaus: e a porta foi fechada depois que saíram os que atrás eles iam.

8 Mas antes que eles dormissem, ela subiu a eles ao terraço, e disse-lhes:

9 Eu sei que o SENHOR vos deu esta terra; porque o temor de vós caiu sobre nós, e todos os moradores desta terra estão apavorados por causa de vós;

10 Porque ouvimos que o SENHOR fez secar as águas do mar Vermelho diante de vós, quando saístes do Egito, e o que fizestes aos dois reis pelos amorreus que estavam da parte dali do Jordão, a Seom e a Ogue, aos quais destruístes.
