Joshua 6:22-24
New English Translation
22 Joshua told the two men who had spied on the land, “Enter the prostitute’s house[a] and bring out the woman and all who belong to her as you promised her.”[b] 23 So the young spies went and brought out Rahab, her father, mother, brothers, and all who belonged to her. They brought out her whole family and took them to a place outside[c] the Israelite camp. 24 But they burned[d] the city and all that was in it, except for the silver, gold, and bronze and iron items they put in the treasury of the Lord’s house.[e]
