Joshua 3
Revised Version 1895
1And JoshuaH3091 roseH7925 upH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and they removedH5265 from ShittimH7851, and cameH935 to JordanH3383, he and allH3605 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; and they lodged there beforeH2962 they passedH5674 over. 2And it cameH1961 to passH5674 afterH1961 threeH7969 daysH3117, that the officersH7860 wentH1961 throughH5674 the midstH7130 of the campH4264; 3and they commandedH6680 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, When ye seeH7200 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881 bearingH5375 it, then ye shall remove from your placeH4725, and goH1980 afterH310 it. 4Yet there shall be a space betweenH996 youH834 and it, aboutH1961 twoH3808 thousandH505 cubitsH520 by measureH520: comeH1961 notH3808 nearH7126 unto it, that ye may knowH3045 the wayH1870 by whichH834 ye mustH853 goH1961; for ye have notH3808 passedH5674 this wayH1870 heretofore. 5And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, SanctifyH6942 yourselves: for tomorrowH4279 the LORDH3068 will doH6213 wondersH6381 among youH3588. 6And JoshuaH3091 spake unto the priestsH3548, sayingH559, TakeH5375 upH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, and passH5674 over beforeH6440 the peopleH5971. And they tookH5375 upH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, and wentH413 beforeH6440 the peopleH5971. 7And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, This dayH3117 will I beginH2490 to magnifyH1431 thee in the sightH5869 of allH3605 IsraelH3478, that they may knowH3045 that as I was with MosesH4872, soH1961 I will be with thee. 8And thou shalt commandH6680 the priestsH3548 that bearH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, sayingH559, When ye are comeH935 to the brink of the watersH4325 of JordanH3383, ye shall standH5975 stillH5975 in JordanH3383. 9And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, ComeH5066 hither, and hearH8085 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430. 10And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, Hereby ye shall knowH3045 that the livingH2416 GodH410 is among youH3588, and that he will without fail driveH3423 outH3423 from beforeH6440 youH3588 the CanaaniteH3669, and the HittiteH2850, and the HiviteH2340, and the PerizziteH6522, and the GirgashiteH1622, and the AmoriteH567, and the JebusiteH2983. 11BeholdH2009, the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LordH136 of allH3605 the earthH776 passeth over beforeH6440 youH3605 intoH776 JordanH3383. 12NowH6258 therefore takeH3947 youH3947 twelveH6240 menH376 outH8147 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, for everyH376 tribeH7626 a manH376. 13And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, when the solesH3709 of the feetH7272 of the priestsH3548 that bearH5375 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, the LordH3068 of allH3605 the earthH776, shall restH5117 in the watersH4325 of JordanH3383, that the watersH4325 of JordanH3383 shall be cutH3772 offH3772, evenH776 the watersH4325 that comeH1961 downH3381 from aboveH4605; and they shall standH5975 in one heap. 14And it cameH1961 to passH5674, when the peopleH5971 removedH5375 from their tentsH168, to passH5674 over JordanH3383, the priestsH3548 that bare the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 beingH1961 beforeH6440 the peopleH5971; 15and when they that bare the arkH727 were comeH935 unto JordanH3383, and the feetH7272 of the priestsH3548 that bare the arkH727 were dippedH2881 in the brink of the waterH4325, (for JordanH3383 overfloweth allH3605 itsH3605 banksH1415 allH3605 the time of harvestH7105,) 16that the watersH4325 whichH834 cameH3381 downH3381 from aboveH5921 stoodH5975, and roseH6965 upH6965 in one heap, a greatH3966 wayH5921 offH3772, at AdamH121, the cityH5892 that is besideH5921 ZarethanH6891: and thoseH834 that wentH3381 downH3381 towardH5921 the seaH3220 of the ArabahH6160, evenH5921 the SaltH4417 SeaH3220, were wholly cutH3772 offH3772: and the peopleH5971 passedH5674 over right againstH5921 JerichoH3405. 17And the priestsH3548 that bare the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 stoodH5975 firmH3559 on dryH2724 groundH2724 in the midstH8432 of JordanH3383, and allH3605 IsraelH3478 passedH5674 over on dryH2724 groundH2724, untilH5704 allH3605 the nationH1471 were passedH5674 clean over JordanH3383.
