Joshua 22:10-20

10And when they cameH935 toH413 GelilothH15521 near the JordanH3383 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, the ReubenitesH1121H7205, the GaditesH1121H1410, and the half-tribeH2677H7626 of ManassehH4519 builtH1129 an imposingH1419H4758 altarH4196 thereH8033 byH5921 the JordanH3383H4196.

11Then the IsraelitesH1121H3478 receivedH8085 the reportH559: “BeholdH2009, the ReubenitesH1121H7205, the GaditesH1121H1410, and the half-tribeH2677H7626 of ManassehH4519 have builtH1129 an altarH4196 onH413 the borderH4136 of the landH776 of CanaanH3667, atH413 GelilothH1552 near the JordanH3383 onH413 the IsraeliteH1121H3478 sideH5676.” 12And whenH1121H3478 they heard thisH8085, the wholeH3605 congregationH5712H1121 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 at ShilohH7887 to goH5927 to warH6635 against themH5921.

13The IsraelitesH1121H3478 sentH7971 PhinehasH6372 son ofH1121 EleazarH499 the priestH3548 toH413 the landH776 of GileadH1568, toH413 the ReubenitesH1121H7205, the GaditesH1410H413, and the half-tribeH2677H7626 of ManassehH4519. 14With himH5973 they sent tenH6235 chiefsH5387—oneH259H5387 familyH1004H1 leaderH5387 from eachH3605 tribeH4294 of IsraelH3478, eachH376 the headH7218 of a familyH1004H1 among the clansH505 of IsraelH3478.

15They wentH935 toH413 the ReubenitesH1121H7205, the GaditesH1121H1410H413, and the half-tribeH2677H7626 of ManassehH4519H413 in the landH776 of GileadH1568 and saidH1696 to themH854H559, 16“This is whatH3541 the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of the LORDH3068 saysH559: ‘WhatH4100 is thisH2088 breach of faithH4603 you have committedH4604 todayH3117 against the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 by turning awayH7725 fromH310 the LORDH3068 and buildingH1129 for yourselves an altarH4196, that you might rebelH4775 against the LORDH3068 this dayH3117?

17Was not the sinH5771 of PeorH6465 enoughH4592 for us, from whichH834 we have notH3808 cleansedH2891 ourselvesH4480 toH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117? It even broughtH1961 a plagueH5063 upon the congregationH5712 of the LORDH3068. 18And nowH3117, would youH859 turn awayH7725 fromH310 the LORDH3068H1961? If youH859 rebelH4775 todayH3117 against the LORDH3068, tomorrowH4279 He will be angryH7107 withH413 the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478.

19IfH518 indeedH389 the landH776 of your inheritanceH272 is uncleanH2931, then cross overH5674 toH413 the landH776 of the LORD’sH3068 possessionH272, whereH834 the LORD’sH3068 tabernacleH4908 standsH7931H8033, and take possessionH270 of it among usH8432. But do notH408 rebelH4775H854H413 against the LORDH3068 or against us by buildingH1129 for yourselves an altarH4196 other thanH1107 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.

20Was notH3808 AchanH59122 sonH1121 of ZerahH2226 unfaithfulH4603 regardingH4604 what was set apart for destructionH2764,3 bringing wrathH7110 uponH5921 the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478H1961? Yet it was notH3808 onlyH259 Achan who perishedH1478 because of his sinH5771!’”
