“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.”
The men went and reached the hill country and stayed there three days, until the pursuers returned; the pursuers had searched all along the way and found nothing — the spies follow Rahab's instructions precisely, hiding in the hill country while the pursuers return to Jericho empty-handed. The three-day period fulfills Rahab's prediction and provides the reconnaissance information Joshua needs.
