19On the tenthH6218 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 the peopleH5971 went upH5927 fromH4480 the JordanH3383 and campedH2583 at GilgalH1537 on the easternH4217 borderH7097 of JerichoH3405. 20AndH853 there at GilgalH1537 JoshuaH3091 set upH6965 theH428 twelveH8147H6240 stonesH68 they had takenH3947 fromH4480 the JordanH3383.

21Then Joshua saidH559 toH413 the IsraelitesH1121H3478H559, “In the futureH4279, whenH834 your childrenH1121 askH7592 their fathersH1H559, ‘WhatH4100 is the meaning of theseH428 stonesH68?’ 22you are to tellH3045 them, ‘IsraelH3478 crossedH5674 theH2088 JordanH3383 on dry groundH3004.’ 23ForH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 dried upH3001 the watersH4325 of the JordanH3383 before youH6440 untilH5704 you had crossed overH5674, just asH834 He didH6213 to the RedH5488 SeaH3220,1 whichH834 He dried upH3001 before usH6440 untilH5704 we had crossed overH5674. 24He did this so thatH4616 allH3605 the peoplesH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 thatH3588 the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 is mightyH2389H1931, and so thatH4616 you may alwaysH3605H3117 fearH3372 the LORDH3068 your GodH430.”
