Joshua 7:19-25

19Then JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to AchanH5912, “My sonH1121, I imploreH4994 you, 1giveH7760 gloryH3519 to the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and giveH5414 praiseH8426 to Him; and tellH5046 me nowH4994 whatH4100 you have doneH6213. Do not hideH3582 it from me.” 20So AchanH5912 answeredH6030 JoshuaH3091 and saidH559, “TrulyH546, I have sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and 2thisH2088 is whatH2088 I didH6213: 21when I sawH7200 among the spoilsH7998 a beautifulH2896 robeH155 from ShinarH8152, two hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, and a barH3956 of goldH2091 fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 in weightH4948, then I 3wantedH2530 them and tookH3947 them; and beholdH2009, they are hiddenH2934 in the groundH776 insideH8432 my tentH168, with the silverH3701 underneathH8478.”

22So JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 messengersH4397, and they ranH7323 to the tentH168; and beholdH2009, it was hiddenH2934 in his tentH168 with the silverH3701 underneathH8478 it. 23So they tookH3947 them from insideH8432 the tentH168 and broughtH935 them to JoshuaH3091 and to allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; and they 4laidH3332 them outH3332 beforeH6440 the LordH3068. 24Then JoshuaH3091, and allH3605 IsraelH3478 with him, tookH3947 AchanH5912 the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, the silverH3701, the robeH155, the barH3956 of goldH2091, his sonsH1121, his daughtersH1323, his 5oxenH7794, his donkeysH2543, his sheepH6629, his tentH168, and allH3605 that belonged to him; and they broughtH5927 them upH5927 to 6the ValleyH6010 of 7AchorH5911. 25And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, “WhyH4100 have you 8broughtH5916 disasterH5916 onH5916 us? The LordH3068 will bringH5916 disasterH5916 onH5916 you thisH2088 dayH3117.” And allH3605 IsraelH3478 stonedH7275 9them with stonesH68; and they burnedH8313 them with fireH784 10after they had stonedH5619 them with stonesH68.
