Joshua 7:14-20

14And ye shall be brought near in the morning according to your tribes; and it shall be, that the tribe which Jehovah taketh shall come forward by families, and the family which Jehovah taketh shall come forward by households; and the household which Jehovah taketh shall come forward man by man.

15And it shall be, that he who is taken with the accursed thing shall be burned with fire, he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath wrought wickedness in Israel.

16And Joshua rose early in the morning, and caused Israel to come forward by their tribes, and the tribe of Judah was taken.

17And he caused the families of Judah to come forward, and he took the family of the Zarhites. And he caused the family of the Zarhites to come forward man by man, and Zabdi was taken.

18And he caused his household to come forward man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.

19And Joshua said to Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to Jehovah the 1God of Israel, and make confession to him: tell me now what thou hast done, keep it not back from me.

20And Achan answered Joshua and said, Indeed I have sinned against Jehovah the 2God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
