Joshua 4:18-24

18And it came to pass, when the priestsH3548 that bare the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah wereH1961 come up out of the midstH8432 of the JordanH3383, and the solesH3709 of the priests’H3548 feetH7272 wereH1961 liftedH5375 up unto the dryH2724 groundH2724, that the watersH4325 of the JordanH3383 returnedH7725 unto their placeH4725, and wentH5927 over all its banksH1415, as aforetime.

19And the peopleH5971 cameH5927 up out of the JordanH3383 on the tenth day of the firstH7223 monthH2320, and encampedH2583 in GilgalH1537, on the eastH4217 borderH7097 of JerichoH3405. 20And those twelve stonesH68, which they tookH3947 out of the JordanH3383, did JoshuaH3091 setH6965 up in GilgalH1537. 21And he spake unto the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, WhenH834 your children shall askH7592 their fathersH1 in timeH4279 to come, sayingH559, What mean these stonesH68? 22then ye shall let your children knowH3045, sayingH559, IsraelH3478 came over this JordanH3383 on dryH3004 landH3004. 23For Jehovah your GodH430 driedH3001 up the watersH4325 of the JordanH3383 from before you, until ye were passedH5674 over, as Jehovah your GodH430 did to the Red SeaH3220, which he driedH3001 up from before us, until we were passedH5674 over; 24that all the peoplesH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 the handH3027 of Jehovah, that it is mightyH2389; that ye may fearH3372 Jehovah your GodH430 for ever.
