Joshua 7:6-11

6And JoshuaH3091 rent his clothesH8071, and fellH5307 to the earthH776 upon his faceH6440 before the arkH727 of Jehovah until the eveningH6153, he and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and threw dustH6083 upon their headsH7218.

7And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, AlasH162, LordH136 Jehovah, wherefore hast thou at all brought this peopleH5971 over the JordanH3383, to deliver us into the handH3027 of the AmoritesH567, to destroyH6 us? Oh that we had been content and had remainedH3427 beyond the JordanH3383!

8Ah LordH136! what shall I sayH559 after IsraelH3478 have turnedH2015 their backsH6203 before their enemiesH341?

9When the CanaanitesH3669 and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 shall hearH8085 [of it], they will surroundH5437 us, and cutH3772 off our nameH8034 from the earthH776. And what wilt thou do unto thy greatH1419 nameH8034?

10And Jehovah saidH559 to JoshuaH3091, RiseH6965 up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy faceH6440?

11IsraelH3478 hath sinnedH2398, and they have alsoH1571 transgressed my covenantH1285 which I commandedH6680 them, and they have even takenH3947 of the accursed thingH3627, and have alsoH1571 stolenH1589, and dissembled alsoH1571, and they have putH7760 it among their stuff.
