And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel {even} unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

And Joshua adjured {them} at that time, saying, Cursed {be} the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest {son} shall he set up the gates of it.

So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was {noised} throughout all the country.
