Joshua 2:5-7

Amplified Bible

⁵ When it was time to close the [city] gate at dark, the men left; I do not know where they went. Pursue them quickly, for [if you do] you will overtake them.” ⁶ But [in fact] she had brought the scouts up to the roof and had hidden them under the ^[a]stalks of flax which she had laid in order on the roof [to dry]. ⁷ So the [king’s] men pursued them on the road to the Jordan as far as the ^[b]fords [east of Jericho]; as soon as the pursuers had gone out after them, the gate [of the city] was shut.
