Joshua 6:23-25
1599 Geneva Bible
23 So the young men that were spies, went in and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had: also they brought out all her family, and put them [a]without the host of Israel.
24 After, they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver and the gold, and the vessels of brass and iron, they put unto the treasure of the [b]house of the Lord.
25 So Joshua saved Rahab the harlot, and her father’s household, and all that she had, and she [c]dwelt in Israel, even unto this day, because she had hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
