Joshua 6:24-26
New Living Translation
24 Then the Israelites burned the town and everything in it. Only the things made from silver, gold, bronze, or iron were kept for the treasury of the Lord’s house. 25 So Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute and her relatives who were with her in the house, because she had hidden the spies Joshua sent to Jericho. And she lives among the Israelites to this day.
26 At that time Joshua invoked this curse:
“May the curse of the Lord fall on anyone
who tries to rebuild the town of Jericho.
At the cost of his firstborn son,
he will lay its foundation.
At the cost of his youngest son,
he will set up its gates.”
Joshua 6:24-26
New International Version
24 Then they burned the whole city(A) and everything in it, but they put the silver and gold and the articles of bronze and iron(B) into the treasury of the Lord’s house.(C) 25 But Joshua spared(D) Rahab the prostitute,(E) with her family and all who belonged to her, because she hid the men Joshua had sent as spies to Jericho(F)—and she lives among the Israelites to this day.
26 At that time Joshua pronounced this solemn oath:(G) “Cursed(H) before the Lord is the one who undertakes to rebuild this city, Jericho:
“At the cost of his firstborn son
he will lay its foundations;
at the cost of his youngest
he will set up its gates.”(I)
