11 And upon hearing these things, we were very afraid, and our heart languished. Neither did there remain in us any spirit at your arrival. For the Lord your God is the very God in heaven above and on earth below.
12 Now, therefore, swear to me by the Lord that in the same way that I have acted with mercy toward you, so also shall you act toward the house of my father. And may you give me a true sign
13 that you will save my father and mother, my brothers and sisters, and all that is theirs, and that you may rescue our souls from death.'
14 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.'
15 Therefore, she sent them down from a window with a rope. For her house was joined to the wall.
