And the men said to her, “Our life for yours even to death! If you do not tell this business of ours, then when the Lord gives us the land we will deal kindly and faithfully with you.”
Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.

‘Let me pass through your land. I will go only by the road; I will turn aside neither to the right nor to the left.
