Joshua 7:13-24

13RiseH6965, sanctifyH6942 the peopleH5971, and sayH559, SanctifyH6942 yourselves for to morrowH4279: for thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, There is an accursed thingH2764 in the midstH7130 of thee, O IsraelH3478: thou canstH3201 not standH6965 beforeH6440 thy enemiesH341, until ye take awayH5493 the accursed thingH2764 from amongH7130 you. 14In the morningH1242 therefore ye shall be broughtH7126 according to your tribesH7626: and it shall be, that the tribeH7626 which the LORDH3068 takethH3920 shall comeH7126 according to their familiesH4940; and the familyH4940 which the LORDH3068 shall takeH3920 shall comeH7126 by householdsH1004; and the householdH1004 which the LORDH3068 shall takeH3920 shall comeH7126 manH1397 by manH1397. 15And it shall be, that he that is takenH3920 with the accursed thingH2764 shall be burntH8313 with fireH784, he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressedH5674 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and because he hath wroughtH6213 follyH5039 in IsraelH3478.1

16So JoshuaH3091 rose earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and broughtH7126 IsraelH3478 by their tribesH7626; and the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063 was takenH3920: 17And he broughtH7126 the familyH4940 of JudahH3063; and he tookH3920 the familyH4940 of the ZarhitesH2227: and he broughtH7126 the familyH4940 of the ZarhitesH2227 manH1397 by manH1397; and ZabdiH2067 was takenH3920: 18And he broughtH7126 his householdH1004 manH1397 by manH1397; and AchanH5912, the sonH1121 of CarmiH3756, the sonH1121 of ZabdiH2067, the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, of the tribeH4294 of JudahH3063, was takenH3920. 19And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 to AchanH5912, My sonH1121, giveH7760, I pray thee, gloryH3519 to the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and makeH5414 confessionH8426 to him; and tellH5046 me now what thou hast doneH6213; hideH3582 it not from me. 20And AchanH5912 answeredH6030 JoshuaH3091, and saidH559, IndeedH546 I have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and thus and thus have I doneH6213: 21When I sawH7200 among the spoilsH7998 aH259 beautifulH2896 BabylonishH8152 garmentH155, and two hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, and aH259 wedgeH3956 of goldH2091 of fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 weightH4948, then I covetedH2530 them, and tookH3947 them; and, behold, they are hidH2934 in the earthH776 in the midstH8432 of my tentH168, and the silverH3701 under it.2 22So JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 messengersH4397, and they ranH7323 to the tentH168; and, behold, it was hidH2934 in his tentH168, and the silverH3701 under it. 23And they tookH3947 them from the midstH8432 of the tentH168, and broughtH935 them to JoshuaH3091, and to all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and laid them outH3332 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.3 24And JoshuaH3091, and all IsraelH3478 with him, tookH3947 AchanH5912 the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, and the silverH3701, and the garmentH155, and the wedgeH3956 of goldH2091, and his sonsH1121, and his daughtersH1323, and his oxenH7794, and his donkeysH2543, and his sheepH6629, and his tentH168, and all that he had: and they broughtH5927 them to the valleyH6010 of AchorH5911.
