1
And
Joshua
rose
early
in
the
morning;
and
they
removed
from
Shittim,
and
came
to
Jordan,
he
and
all
the
children
of
Israel,
and
lodged
there
before
they
passed
over.
2
And
it
came
to
pass
after
three
days,
that
the
officers
went
through
the
host;
3
And
they
commanded
the
people,
saying,
When
ye
see
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
LORD
your
God,
and
the
priests
the
Levites
bearing
it,
then
ye
shall
remove
from
your
place,
and
go
after
4
Yet
there
shall
be
a
space
between
you
and
it,
about
two
thousand
cubits
by
measure:
come
not
near
unto
it,
that
ye
may
know
the
way
by
which
ye
must
go:
for
ye
have
not
passed
[this]
way
heretofore.
5
And
Joshua
said
unto
the
people,
Sanctify
yourselves:
for
to
morrow
the
LORD
will
do
wonders
among
you.
6
And
Joshua
spake
unto
the
priests,
saying,
Take
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
pass
over
before
the
people.
And
they
took
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
went
before
the
people.
7
And
the
LORD
said
unto
Joshua,
This
day
will
I
begin
to
magnify
thee
in
the
sight
of
all
Israel,
that
they
may
know
that,
as
I
was
with
Moses,
[so]
I
will
be
with
thee.
8
And
thou
shalt
command
the
priests
that
bear
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
saying,
When
ye
are
come
to
the
brink
of
the
water
of
Jordan,
ye
shall
stand
still
in
Jordan.
9
And
Joshua
said
unto
the
children
of
Israel,
Come
hither,
and
hear
the
words
of
the
LORD
your
God.
10
And
Joshua
said,
Hereby
ye
shall
know
that
the
living
God
[is]
among
you,
and
[that]
he
will
without
fail
drive
out
from
before
you
the
Canaanites,
and
the
Hittites,
and
the
Hivites,
and
the
Perizzites,
and
the
Girgashites,
and
the
Amorites,
and
the
Jebusites.
11
Behold,
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth
passeth
over
before
you
into
Jordan.
12
Now
therefore
take
you
twelve
men
out
of
the
tribes
of
Israel,
out
of
every
tribe
a
man.
13
And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
as
soon
as
the
soles
of
the
feet
of
the
priests
that
bear
the
ark
of
the
LORD,
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth,
shall
rest
in
the
waters
of
Jordan,
[that]
the
waters
of
Jordan
shall
be
cut
off
[from]
the
waters
that
come
down
from
above;
and
they
shall
stand
upon
an
heap.
14
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
people
removed
from
their
tents,
to
pass
over
Jordan,
and
the
priests
bearing
the
ark
of
the
covenant
before
the
people;
15
And
as
they
that
bare
the
ark
were
come
unto
Jordan,
and
the
feet
of
the
priests
that
bare
the
ark
were
dipped
in
the
brim
of
the
water,
(for
Jordan
overfloweth
all
his
banks
all
the
time
of
harvest,)
16
That
the
waters
which
came
down
from
above
stood
[and]
rose
up
upon
an
heap
very
far
from
the
city
Adam,
that
[is]
beside
Zaretan:
and
those
that
came
down
toward
the
sea
of
the
plain,
[even]
the
salt
sea,
failed,
[and]
were
cut
off:
and
the
people
passed
over
right
against
Jericho.
17
And
the
priests
that
bare
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
LORD
stood
firm
on
dry
ground
in
the
midst
of
Jordan,
and
all
the
Israelites
passed
over
on
dry
ground,
until
all
the
people
were
passed
clean
over
Jordan.
