"And they said to her: “We shall be innocent of this oath, to which you have sworn us, "
— Joshua 2:17, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear.”
“And the men said unto her, We will be guiltless of this thine oath which thou hast made us to swear. ”
“The men said to her, "We will be guiltless of this your oath which you have made us to swear.”
“The men said to her,“We are not bound by this oath you made us swear unless the following conditions are met:”
“And they said to her: We shall be blameless of this oath, which thou hast made us swear,”
“And the men said to her, We will only be responsible for this oath which you have made us take,”
“And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear.”
They responded to her: “May our lives be yours unto death, if only you do not betray us. And when the Lord will have delivered the land to us, we will act toward you with mercy and truth.”
Therefore, she sent them down from a window with a rope. For her house was joined to the wall.
And she said to them: “Climb up to the mountains; otherwise, they may meet you as they are returning. And lay hidden there for three days, until they return. And then you will go on your way.”
And they said to her: “We shall be innocent of this oath, to which you have sworn us,
if, when we enter into the land, this scarlet cord has been placed as a sign, and you have tied it at the window by which you let us down. And so, gather your father, and mother, and brothers, and all your family into your house.
Whoever will have exited from the door of your house, his blood will be on his own head, and we will be uninvolved. But the blood of all who will be with you in the house shall fall back upon our own head, if anyone touches them.
But if you will have betrayed us, so that you spread this word in their midst, we will be free from this oath, to which you have sworn us.”
