Joshua 7:22-26
22So JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 messengersH4397 who ranH7323 to the tentH168, and there it all wasH2009, hiddenH2934 in his tentH168, with the silverH3701 underneathH8478. 23They took the thingsH3947 from insideH8432 the tentH168, brought themH935 toH413 JoshuaH3091H413 and allH3605 the IsraelitesH1121H3478, and spread them outH3332 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
24Then JoshuaH3091, together withH5973 allH3605 IsraelH3478, tookH3947 AchanH5912 sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, the silverH3701, the cloakH155, the barH3956 of goldH2091, his sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323, his oxenH7794 andH853 donkeysH2543 andH853 sheepH6629, his tentH168, and everythingH3605 else he ownedH834, and brought themH5927 to the ValleyH6010 of AchorH5911.
25“WhyH4100 have you brought this trouble upon usH5916?” saidH559 JoshuaH3091. “TodayH3117H2088 the LORDH3068 will bring trouble upon youH5916!” And allH3605 IsraelH3478 stoned him to deathH7275. Then they stonedH5619 the others and burned their bodiesH8313. 26And they heapedH6965 overH5921 Achan a largeH1419 pileH1530 of rocksH68 that remains toH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117. So the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 from His burning angerH2740H639. ThereforeH5921H3651 thatH1931 placeH4725 is calledH7121H8034 the ValleyH6010 of AchorH59111 toH5704 thisH2088 dayH3117.
