KING JAMES BIBLELXX
1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot's house, named Rahab, and lodged there.1 και απεστειλεν ιησους υιος ναυη εκ σαττιν δυο νεανισκους κατασκοπευσαι λεγων αναβητε και ιδετε την γην και την ιεριχω και πορευθεντες εισηλθοσαν οι δυο νεανισκοι εις ιεριχω και εισηλθοσαν εις οικιαν γυναικος πορνης η ονομα ρααβ και κατελυσαν εκει
2 And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the country.2 και απηγγελη τω βασιλει ιεριχω λεγοντες εισπεπορευνται ωδε ανδρες των υιων ισραηλ κατασκοπευσαι την γην
3 And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the country.3 και απεστειλεν ο βασιλευς ιεριχω και ειπεν προς ρααβ λεγων εξαγαγε τους ανδρας τους εισπεπορευμενους εις την οικιαν σου την νυκτα κατασκοπευσαι γαρ την γην ηκασιν
4 And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they were:4 και λαβουσα η γυνη τους ανδρας εκρυψεν αυτους και ειπεν αυτοις λεγουσα εισεληλυθασιν προς με οι ανδρες
5 And it came to pass about the time of shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out: whither the men went I wot not: pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them.5 ως δε η πυλη εκλειετο εν τω σκοτει και οι ανδρες εξηλθον ουκ επισταμαι που πεπορευνται καταδιωξατε οπισω αυτων ει καταλημψεσθε αυτους
6 But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof.6 αυτη δε ανεβιβασεν αυτους επι το δωμα και εκρυψεν αυτους εν τη λινοκαλαμη τη εστοιβασμενη αυτη επι του δωματος
7 And the men pursued after them the way to Jordan unto the fords: and as soon as they which pursued after them were gone out, they shut the gate.7 και οι ανδρες κατεδιωξαν οπισω αυτων οδον την επι του ιορδανου επι τας διαβασεις και η πυλη εκλεισθη και εγενετο ως εξηλθοσαν οι διωκοντες οπισω αυτων
8 And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof;8 και αυτοι δε πριν η κοιμηθηναι αυτους και αυτη ανεβη επι το δωμα προς αυτους
9 And she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you.9 και ειπεν προς αυτους επισταμαι οτι δεδωκεν υμιν κυριος την γην επιπεπτωκεν γαρ ο φοβος υμων εφ' ημας
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.10 ακηκοαμεν γαρ οτι κατεξηρανεν κυριος ο θεος την ερυθραν θαλασσαν απο προσωπου υμων οτε εξεπορευεσθε εκ γης αιγυπτου και οσα εποιησεν τοις δυσι βασιλευσιν των αμορραιων οι ησαν περαν του ιορδανου τω σηων και ωγ ους εξωλεθρευσατε αυτους
11 And as soon as we had heard these things, our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more courage in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and in earth beneath.11 και ακουσαντες ημεις εξεστημεν τη καρδια ημων και ουκ εστη ετι πνευμα εν ουδενι ημων απο προσωπου υμων οτι κυριος ο θεος υμων θεος εν ουρανω ανω και επι της γης κατω
12 Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the LORD, since I have shewed you kindness, that ye will also shew kindness unto my father's house, and give me a true token:12 και νυν ομοσατε μοι κυριον τον θεον οτι ποιω υμιν ελεος και ποιησετε και υμεις ελεος εν τω οικω του πατρος μου
13 And that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.13 και ζωγρησετε τον οικον του πατρος μου και την μητερα μου και τους αδελφους μου και παντα τον οικον μου και παντα οσα εστιν αυτοις και εξελεισθε την ψυχην μου εκ θανατου
14 And the men answered her, Our life for yours, if ye utter not this our business. And it shall be, when the LORD hath given us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee.14 και ειπαν αυτη οι ανδρες η ψυχη ημων ανθ' υμων εις θανατον και αυτη ειπεν ως αν παραδω κυριος υμιν την πολιν ποιησετε εις εμε ελεος και αληθειαν
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was upon the town wall, and she dwelt upon the wall.15 και κατεχαλασεν αυτους δια της θυριδος
16 And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way.16 και ειπεν αυτοις εις την ορεινην απελθετε μη συναντησωσιν υμιν οι καταδιωκοντες και κρυβησεσθε εκει τρεις ημερας εως αν αποστρεψωσιν οι καταδιωκοντες οπισω υμων και μετα ταυτα απελευσεσθε εις την οδον υμων
17 And the men said unto her, We will be blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear.17 και ειπαν οι ανδρες προς αυτην αθωοι εσμεν τω ορκω σου τουτω
18 Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household, home unto thee.18 ιδου ημεις εισπορευομεθα εις μερος της πολεως και θησεις το σημειον το σπαρτιον το κοκκινον τουτο εκδησεις εις την θυριδα δι' ης κατεβιβασας ημας δι' αυτης τον δε πατερα σου και την μητερα σου και τους αδελφους σου και παντα τον οικον του πατρος σου συναξεις προς σεαυτην εις την οικιαν σου
19 And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we will be guiltless: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand be upon him.19 και εσται πας ος αν εξελθη την θυραν της οικιας σου εξω ενοχος εαυτω εσται ημεις δε αθωοι τω ορκω σου τουτω και οσοι εαν γενωνται μετα σου εν τη οικια σου ημεις ενοχοι εσομεθα
20 And if thou utter this our business, then we will be quit of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.20 εαν δε τις ημας αδικηση η και αποκαλυψη τους λογους ημων τουτους εσομεθα αθωοι τω ορκω σου τουτω
21 And she said, According unto your words, so be it. And she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window.21 και ειπεν αυτοις κατα το ρημα υμων ουτως εστω και εξαπεστειλεν αυτους
22 And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.22 και επορευθησαν και ηλθοσαν εις την ορεινην και κατεμειναν εκει τρεις ημερας και εξεζητησαν οι καταδιωκοντες πασας τας οδους και ουχ ευροσαν
23 So the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun, and told him all things that befell them:23 και υπεστρεψαν οι δυο νεανισκοι και κατεβησαν εκ του ορους και διεβησαν προς ιησουν υιον ναυη και διηγησαντο αυτω παντα τα συμβεβηκοτα αυτοις
24 And they said unto Joshua, Truly the LORD hath delivered into our hands all the land; for even all the inhabitants of the country do faint because of us.24 και ειπαν προς ιησουν οτι παρεδωκεν κυριος πασαν την γην εν χειρι ημων και κατεπτηκεν πας ο κατοικων την γην εκεινην αφ' ημων
