Joshua 3:3-8

3and they commandedH6680 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, When ye seeH7200 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah your 1GodH430, and the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881 bearingH5375 it, then remove from your placeH4725, and goH1980 after it;

4yet there shall beH1961 a distanceH7350 between you and it, about two thousandH505 cubitsH520 by measure. Ye shall not come near it, that ye may knowH3045 the wayH1870 by which ye must go; for ye have not passedH5674 this wayH1870 heretofore.

5And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to the peopleH5971, Hallow yourselves; for to-morrow Jehovah will do wondersH6381 in your midstH7130.

6And JoshuaH3091 spoke to the priestsH3548, sayingH559, TakeH5375 up the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, and go over before the peopleH5971. And they tookH5375 up the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, and went before the peopleH5971.

7And Jehovah saidH559 to JoshuaH3091, This dayH3117 will I beginH2490 to magnifyH1431 thee in the sight of all IsraelH3478, that they may knowH3045 that as I wasH1961 with MosesH4872, so will I beH1961 with thee.

8And thou shalt commandH6680 the priestsH3548 who bearH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, sayingH559, When ye comeH935 to the edge of the watersH4325 of the JordanH3383, standH5975 stillH5975 in the JordanH3383.
