Joshua 6:21 in Context — Joshua 6

19 Mas toda a prata, e o ouro, e vasos de bronze e de ferro, seja consagrado ao SENHOR, e venha ao tesouro do SENHOR.

20 Então o povo deu grito, e os sacerdotes tocaram as trombetas: e aconteceu que quando o povo ouviu o som da trombeta, deu o povo grito com grande barulho, e o muro caiu verticalmente. O povo subiu logo à cidade, cada um em frente de si, e tomaram-na.

21 E destruíram tudo o que na cidade havia; homens e mulheres, moços e anciãos, até os bois, e ovelhas, e asnos, a fio de espada.

22 Mas Josué disse aos dois homens que haviam reconhecido a terra: Entrai em casa da mulher prostituta, e fazei sair dali à mulher, e a tudo o que for seu, como o jurastes.

23 E os rapazes espias entraram, e tiraram a Raabe, e a seu pai, e a sua mãe, e a seus irmãos, e todo o que era seu; e também tiraram a toda sua parentela, e puseram-nos fora do acampamento de Israel.
