But if a hand is laid on anyone who stays with you in the house, his blood will be on our head. 20And if you betray this business of ours, we will be free from the oath you made us swear.” 21She said, “Let it be as you say.” Then she sent them away, and they left. And she tied the scarlet cord in the window. 22They went into the hill country and stayed there three days, until the pursuers returned.

They told him everything that had happened to them.
