Joshua 4:1-5

1Now when the entire nation had finished crossing the 1Jordan, the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,

2“2Take for yourselves twelve men from the people, one man from each tribe,

3and command them, saying, ‘Take up for yourselves twelve stones from here out of the middle of the Jordan, from the place where the priests’ feet are standing firmly, and carry them over with you and lay them down in 3the encampment where you will spend the night.’”

4So Joshua called the twelve men whom he had appointed from the sons of Israel, one man from each tribe;

5and Joshua said to them, “4Cross again to the ark of the Lord your God into the middle of the Jordan, and each of you take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel.
