And she sent them away{H7971}{(H8762)}, and they departed{H3212}{(H8799)}: and she bound{H7194}{(H8799)} the scarlet{H8144} line{H8615} in the window{H2474}. 22 And they went{H3212}{(H8799)}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} unto the mountain{H2022}, and abode{H3427}{(H8799)} there three{H7969} days{H3117}, until the pursuers{H7291}{(H8802)} were returned{H7725}{(H8804)}: and the pursuers{H7291}{(H8802)} sought{H1245}{(H8762)} them throughout all the way{H1870}, but found{H4672}{(H8804)} them not. 23 So the two{H8147} men{H582} returned{H7725}{(H8799)}, and descended{H3381}{(H8799)} from the mountain{H2022}, and passed over{H5674}{(H8799)}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} to Joshua{H3091} the son{H1121} of Nun{H5126}, and told{H5608}{(H8762)} him all things that befell{H4672}{(H8802)} them: 24 And they said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joshua{H3091}, Truly{H3588} the LORD{H3068} hath delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} into our hands{H3027} all the land{H776}; for even all the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of the country{H776} do faint{H4127}{(H8738)} because{H6440} of us.
