Joshua 2:17-19
New King James Version
17 So the men said to her: “We will be (A)blameless[a] of this oath of yours which you have made us swear, 18 (B)unless, when we come into the land, you bind this line of scarlet cord in the window through which you let us down, (C)and unless you [b]bring your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father’s household to your own home. 19 So it shall be that whoever goes outside the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be on his own head, and we will be [c]guiltless. And whoever is with you in the house, (D)his [d]blood shall be on our head if a hand is laid on him.
