Joshua 7:21-24

21when I saw among the spoil a beautiful cloak from Shinar, and 200 shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing 50 shekels, then I coveted them and took them. And see, they are hidden in the earth inside my tent, with the silver underneath."

22So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent; and behold, it was hidden in his tent with the silver underneath.

23And they took them out of the tent and brought them to Joshua and to all the people of Israel. And they laid them down before the Lord.

24And Joshua and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver and the cloak and the bar of gold, and his sons and daughters and his oxen and donkeys and sheep and his tent and all that he had. And they brought them up to the Valley of Achor.
