Joshua 22:16-20

16“ThusH3541 saysH559 the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of the LordH3068, ‘WhatH4100 is thisH2088 unfaithfulH4604 actH4604 whichH834 you have committedH4603 against the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, turningH7725 awayH7725 from followingH310 the LordH3068 this dayH3117, by 1buildingH1129 yourselves an altarH4196, to rebelH4775 against the LordH3068 this dayH3117? 17Is not 2the iniquityH5771 of PeorH6465 3enoughH4592 for us, from whichH834 we have not cleansedH2891 ourselves to thisH2088 dayH3117, although a plagueH5063 cameH1961 on the congregationH5712 of the LordH3068, 18that you must turnH7725 awayH7725 this dayH3117 from followingH310 the LordH3068? If you rebelH4775 against the LordH3068 todayH3117, 4He will be angryH7107 with the wholeH3605 congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 tomorrowH4279. 19IfH518, howeverH389, the landH776 of your possessionH272 is uncleanH2931, then 5crossH5674 into the landH776 of the possessionH272 of the LordH3068, whereH834H8033 the Lord’sH3068 tabernacleH4908 6standsH7931, and takeH270 possessionH270 amongH8432 us. Only do not rebelH4775 against the LordH3068, or rebelH4775 againstH854 us by 7buildingH1129 an altarH4196 for yourselves, besidesH4480H1107 the altarH4196 of the LordH3068 our GodH430. 20Did not 8AchanH5912 the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226 actH4603 unfaithfullyH4604 in the thingsH2764 underH2764 the banH2764, and wrathH7110 fallH1961 on allH3605 the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478? And that manH376 did not perishH1478 aloneH259 in his iniquityH5771.’”
