¹⁷ And the city shall be ^(A)devoted to destruction, it and all that is in it belongs to Yahweh; only Rahab the harlot ^[a]and all who are with her in the house shall live because she hid the messengers whom we sent. ¹⁸ But as for you, only keep yourselves from the things devoted to destruction, lest as you are devoting them to destruction, you also ^(B)take some of the things devoted to destruction and make the camp of Israel devoted to destruction and bring trouble on it. ^19 (C)But all the silver and gold and articles of bronze and iron are holy to Yahweh; they shall go into the treasury of Yahweh.”
