Joshua 2 — Context

And she said, Let it be as you say. Then she sent them away, and they went; and she put the bright red cord in the window.

And they went into the hill-country and were there three days, till the men who had gone after them had come back; and those who went after them were searching for them everywhere without coming across them.

Then the two men came down from the hill-country and went over and came back to Joshua, the son of Nun; and they gave him a complete account of what had taken place.

And they said to Joshua, Truly, the Lord has given all the land into our hands; and all the people of the land have become like water because of us.
