Joshua 7:20-26
20So AchanH5912 answeredH6030 JoshuaH3091 and saidH559, “TrulyH546, I have sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and 1thisH2088 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 2wantedH2530 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 3laidH3332 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 4oxenH7794, his donkeysH2543, his sheepH6629, his tentH168, and allH3605 that belonged to him; and they broughtH5927 them upH5927 to 5the ValleyH6010 of 6AchorH5911. 25And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, “WhyH4100 have you 7broughtH5916 disasterH5916 onH5916 us? The LordH3068 will bringH5916 disasterH5916 onH5916 you thisH2088 dayH3117.” And allH3605 IsraelH3478 stonedH7275 8them with stonesH68; and they burnedH8313 them with fireH784 9after they had stonedH5619 them with stonesH68. 26Then they erectedH6965 overH5921 him a largeH1419 heapH1530 of stonesH68 that stands to thisH2088 dayH3117, and the LordH3068 turnedH7725 from the fiercenessH2740 of His angerH639. ThereforeH5921H3651 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 has been calledH7121 10the ValleyH6010 of 11AchorH5911 to thisH2088 dayH3117.
