Joshua 6:23-25
New International Version
23 So the young men who had done the spying went in and brought out Rahab, her father and mother, her brothers and sisters and all who belonged to her.(A) They brought out her entire family and put them in a place outside the camp of Israel.
24 Then they burned the whole city(B) and everything in it, but they put the silver and gold and the articles of bronze and iron(C) into the treasury of the Lord’s house.(D) 25 But Joshua spared(E) Rahab the prostitute,(F) with her family and all who belonged to her, because she hid the men Joshua had sent as spies to Jericho(G)—and she lives among the Israelites to this day.
Joshua 6:23-25
King James Version
23 And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.
24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord.
25 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.
