Joshua 4:4-13

4Then JoshuaH3091 calledH7121 the twelveH6240 menH376, whomH834 he had preparedH3559 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, outH413 of everyH376 tribeH7626 a manH376:

5and JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto them, PassH5674 over beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430 intoH413 the midstH8432 of JordanH3383, and takeH7311 youH6440 upH7311 everyH376 manH376 of youH6440 a stoneH68 uponH5921 his shoulderH7926, accordingH5921 unto the numberH4557 of the tribesH7626 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478:

6that this may be a signH226 among youH3588, that when your childrenH1121 askH7592 in time to comeH1961, sayingH559, WhatH4100 mean ye by theseH428 stonesH68?

7then ye shall sayH559 unto them, BecauseH834 the watersH4325 of JordanH3383 were cutH3772 offH3772 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068; when it passedH5674 over JordanH3383, the watersH4325 of JordanH3383 were cutH3772 offH3772: and theseH428 stonesH68 shall be for a memorialH2146 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 for everH5769.

8And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 didH6213 soH3651 as JoshuaH3091 commandedH6680, and tookH5375 upH5375 twelveH6240 stonesH68 outH413 of the midstH8432 of JordanH3383, as the LORDH3068 spake unto JoshuaH3091, accordingH413 to the numberH4557 of the tribesH7626 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; and they carriedH5375 them over with them unto the placeH4411 whereH834 they lodged, and laidH6680 them downH6680 there.

9And JoshuaH3091 setH6965 upH6965 twelveH6240 stonesH68 in the midstH8432 of JordanH3383, in the placeH8478 whereH8033 the feetH7272 of the priestsH3548 whichH8033 bare the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 stoodH6965: and they are there, unto this dayH3117.

10For the priestsH3548 whichH834 bare the arkH727 stoodH5975 in the midstH8432 of JordanH3383, untilH5704 everyH3605 thingH1697 was finishedH8552 that the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 JoshuaH3091 to speakH1696 unto the peopleH5971, accordingH413 to allH3605 that MosesH4872 commandedH6680 JoshuaH3091: and the peopleH5971 hasted and passedH5674 over.

11And it cameH1961 to passH5674, when allH3605 the peopleH5971 were clean passedH5674 over, that the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 passedH5674 over, and the priestsH3548, in the presenceH6440 of the peopleH5971.

12And the childrenH1121 of ReubenH7205, and the childrenH1121 of GadH1410, and the halfH2677 tribeH7626 of ManassehH4519, passedH5674 over armed beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, as MosesH4872 spake unto them:

13aboutH413 fortyH705 thousandH505 ready armedH2502 for warH4421 passedH5674 over beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 unto battleH4421, to the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405.
