Joshua 3:14-17

14SoH1961 when the peopleH5971 broke campH5265H168 to crossH5674 the JordanH3383, the priestsH3548 carriedH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 ahead ofH6440 them.

15Now the JordanH3383 overflowsH4390H5921H3605 its banksH1415 throughoutH3605 the harvestH7105 seasonH3117. But as soon as the priestsH3548H5375H727 carryingH5375 the arkH727 reachedH935H5704 the JordanH3383 and their feetH7272 touchedH2881 the water’sH4325 edgeH7097, 16the flowingH3381H4605 waterH4325 stood stillH5975. It backed upH6965H259H5067 as far upstreamH7368H3966 as AdamH121, a cityH5892 in the areaH6654 of ZarethanH6891, while the water flowingH3381 towardH5921 the SeaH3220 of the ArabahH6160 (the Salt SeaH3220H44171) was completelyH8552 cut offH3772. So the peopleH5971 crossed overH5674 oppositeH5048 JerichoH3405. 17The priestsH3548 carryingH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 stoodH5975 firmH3559 on dry groundH2724 in the middleH8432 of the JordanH3383, while allH3605 IsraelH3478 crossed overH5674 the dry groundH2724, untilH5704 the entireH3605 nationH1471 had crossedH8552H5674 the JordanH3383.
