3 And He humbled thee, and suffered_ thee » with xmannd, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that He might_make_thee_know that «xman Fdoth not live o by xbread only, but o by every word that_proceedeth_out_of eeu Jthe Lorp ‘doth «xman

4Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years.
5 Thou ‘shalt also consider in thine heart, that, «cas a ‘man tchasteneth his son, so J the Lory thy =God +chas- teneth thee.
6 Therefore thou -shalt_keep commandments_of J the Lorp thy =God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.
7 For ‘the Lory thy =God +bringeth thee into a good land, a land_of brooks_ of =water, of fountains and depths 4that_spring_out of valleys and hills ;
8 A land_of wheat, and barley, and -yines, and -fig_trees, and -pomegran- ates; a land_of oil_olive, and honey ;
_ 9 A land wherein thou shalt_eat bread
without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any thing in it ; a land whose stones are iron, and out_of whose hills thou tmayest_dig brass.
10 When thou -hast_eaten and -art_ full, then thou -shalt_bless 1 thy =God for the good land which He shath_given thee. ;
il -Beware that thou forget not J Lorp thy =God, in not keeping His com- mandments, and His judgments, and His statutes, which £ command thee this day :

age;
15 x1Who led thee through that xgreat and xterrible xwilderness, wherein were flery -serpents, and -scorpions, and drought, where {here was no water; xswho brought_thee_forth water out_of the_rock_of ~flint ;

with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that He might_humble thee, and that He might_prove thee, to do_thee_ good at thy latter_end ;
17 And thou -say in thine heart, ‘My power and the_might_of mine hand shath_gotten me xthis xwealth.’
18 But thou -shalt_remember ‘-the
Lorp thy =God: for it is He x+that giveth thee power to get wealth, that_ He_may establish His “covenant which He sware unto thy fathers, as it ts xthis xday. 1 And it -shall_be, if thou do_at_all forget J-the Lorp thy =God, and -walk after other gods, and «serve them, and ‘worship them, I -testify against you this day that ye shall_surely perish.
20 As the nations which /the Lorp 4destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish ; because ye twould not be_obe- cet unto the_voice_of J the Lorp your =God.
“HEAR, O_Israél: Thow art +to_
pass_over *Jordan this day, to go_
in to svpossess nations greater and
mightier than thyself, cities great and fenced_up to x=heaven,
2 A _people great and tall, the_s chil- dren_of the Anakims, whom thou ‘knowest, and of whom thow -hast_ heard say, ‘ Who tcan stand before the_ schildren_of Anak!’
3 -Understand therefore this day, that Tthe Lorp thy =God is He x+which go- eth_over before thee; as a consuming fire He shall_destroy them, and He shall_bring_them_down before thy face: so -shalt_thou_drive them_out, and «destroy them quickly, ac as J the Lorp hath said unto thee.
4 Speak not thou in thine heart, after that !the Lorp thy =God hath_cast them out from before thee, saying, ‘For my righteousness Jthe Lorp -hath_ brought_me_in to possess xthis xland : but for the_wickedness_of xthese xna- tions J the Lorp +doth_drive_them_out from before thee.
5 Not for thy righteousness, or for the_uprightness_of thine heart, «dost tro go to possess their “land : but for the_wickedness_of xthese xnations / the Lorp thy =God +doth_driye_them_out from before thee,. and that_He_may eperform sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
6-Understand therefore, that J the Lorp thy =God +giveth thee not xthis xgood *land to possess it for thy right- eousness; for thon art a stiffnecked people.
7-Remember, and ‘forget not, ~how thou provokedst J «the Lorp thy =God to_wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou_didst_depart out_of the_ land_of Egypt, until ye came unto xthis xplace, ye -haye_been rebellious against Jthe Lorp.

even the_tables_of the covenant which Jthe Lorp cmade with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did_eat bread nor drink water :
10 And J the Lorp delivered unto me “two tables_of xstone written with the_ finger_of =God ; and on them was writ- ten according_to all the words, which J the Lorp spake with you in the mount out_of the_midst_of the fire in the_day_ of the assembly.
11 And it came_to_pass at the_end_of forty days and forty nights, that 4 the Lorp gave me -the_two tables_of xstone, even the_tables_of the covenant.
2 And ‘the Lorp said unto me, ‘-Arise, -get_thee.down quickly from hence ; for thy people which thou -hast_ brought_forth out_of Egypt -have_cor- rupted themselves ; they -are_quickly turned_aside out_of the way which 1 commanded them; they -have_made them a molten_image.’
18 Furthermore 4 the Lorp spake unto me, saying, ‘I -have_seen xthis *people, and, behold, it is a stiff-necked people :
14 -Let.Me alone, that I may_destroy them, and blot_out their “name from under x-heaven: and I will_make of ee a nation mightier and greater than they.’
15 So I turned and came_down from the mount, and the mount +burned with xfire: and the_two tables_of the covenant were in my two hands.
16 And I looked, and, behold, ye had_ sinned against Jthe Lorp your =God, and had_made you a molten calf: ye had_turned_aside quickly out_of the way which ”? the Lorp had_commanded
pot.
7 And I to took the two xtables, and cast them out_of my two hands, and brake them before your eyes.
18 And I fell_down before! the Lorp, as_ at the first, forty daysand forty nights : I did neither eat bread, nor drink water, because_of all your sins which ye sin- ned, in doing ¢ xwickedly in the_sight_ of J the Lorn, to provoke_Him_to_anger.
19 For I was_afraid of the anger and xhot_displeasure, wherewith ‘the Lorp was_wroth against you to destroy pou. But ! the Lorp hearkened unto me at xthat «time also.
20 And ‘the Lorp was_very_angry with Aaron to have_destroyed him: and I prayed for Aaron also the same xtime.
21 And I took your sin, sthe calf which ye had_made, and ? burnt it with xfire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust : and I cast -the_dust thereof into the brook x:that descended out_of the mount.
22 And at Taberah, and at Massah,
.|and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked -|J-the Lorp to wrath.
23 Likewise when J the Lorp sent poi from Kadesh-barnea, saying, ‘*Go_up and -possess -the land which I -have_ given you;’ then ye rebelled against ethemcommandment of Jthe Lorp your =God, and ye believed Him not, nor hearkened to His voice.
DzvutERonomy X. 10,
24 Ye shave_been rebellious against Jthe Lorp from the day that I knew
you.
25 Thus I fell_down before J the Lorp -forty xdays and -forty xnights, as I fell.down at the first; because ? the Lorp had_said He would_destroy pon.
26 T prayed therefore unto ! the Lorp, and said, ‘O_A=Lord ! Gop, 'destroy not Thy people and Thine inheritance, which Thou shast_redeemed through Thy greatness, which Thou -hast_ brought_forth out_of Egypt with a mighty hand.
27 ~Remember Thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; ‘look not unto the_ stubbornness_of xthis xpeople, nor to their wickedness, nor to their sin:
28 Lest the land’ whence Thou broughtest us out tsay, Because / the Lorp was not able to bring_them_into the land which He promised them, and because He hated them, He hath brought_them_out to slay them in the wilderness.
2 Yet thep are Thy people and Thine inheritance, which Thou broughtest_ out by Thy xmighty power and by Thy
xstretched_out arm.” 1 “AT xthat xtime Jthe Lorp said
O unto me, ‘-Hew thee two tables_ of stone like_unto the first, and -come_ up unto Me into the mount, and -make thee an c ark_of wood.
2 And I will_write on the tables the words that were in the first xtables which thou brakest, and thou -shalt_ put them in the ark.’
3 And I made an ark_of shittim wood, and hewed two tables_of stone like_ unto the first, and went_up into the mount, having the_two xtables in mine hand.
4 And He wrote on the tables, accord- ing_to the first writing, -the_ten »xcommandments, which ‘the Lorp spake unto you in the mount out_of the_midst_of the fire in the_day_of the assembly: and Jthe Lorp gaye them unto me.
5 And I turned_myself and came_ down from the mount, and put tables in the ark which I had_made; and there they be, «cas ? the Lorp com- manded me.
6 (And the_schildren_of Israél took their journey from Beeroth_of the_ schildren_of Jaakan to Mosera: there Aaron died, and there he was_buried ; and Eleazar his son ministered_in_the_ priest’s_office in his stead.
7 From thence they journeyed unto xGudgodah; and from xGudgodah to Jotbath, a land_of rivers_of waters.
8 At xthat xtime J the Lorp separated -the_tribe_of xLevyi, to bear -the_ark_ of the_covenant_of J the Lorp, to stand before ! the Lorp to minister_unto Him, and to bless in His name, unto xthis xday.
9 Wherefore Levi -hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; ‘the Lorp ~ ts his inheritance, according as Jthe Lorp thy =God promised him.)

1 And Jthe Lorp said unto mé, *sArise, -take_thy_journey before the people, that they may_go_in and possess =the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.’
2 And now, Israél, what doth 4 the Lorp thy =God, require of thee, but to fear ' all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve ! heart and with all thy soul,
13 To keep -the-commandments_of Jthe Lorp, and His command thee this day for thy good ?
14 Behold, the =heavyen and the_=hea- ven_of xheayens is Jthe Lorp’s thy =God, the earth also, with all that therein is.
15 Only Jthe Lorp had_a_delight in thy fathers to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you above all x=people, as it is xthis xday.
16 -Cireumcise therefore -the_fore- skin_of your heart, and tbe no more stiffnecked.
Ww For Jthe Lorp your =God aris =God_of xgods, and 4=Lord_of «lords, @ xgreat ex-God, a xmighty, and a xterrible, which 'regardeth not persons, nor ‘taketh & reward :
18 1He_doth_execute the_judgment_ of the -fatherless and widow, and sloyeth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment.
19-Loye ye therefore -the stranger : for ye were strangers in the_land_of Egypt.
2 Thou shalt_fear J-the Lorp thy =God; Him shalt_thou_serve, and to Him shalt_thou_cleaye, and swear by His name.
21 He is thy praise, and He is thy =God, that -hath_done for thee xthese Xgreat and *terrible_things, which thine eyes -have_seen.

now Jthe Lorp thy =God -hath_made eee as the_stars_of heaven for multi- ude.

3 And His «miracles, and His «acts, which He did in the_midst_of Egypt unto Pharaoh the_king_of Egypt, and unto all his land ; :
4 And what He did unto the_army_of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots ; how He made -the_water_of the_Red sea to_overflow them as they
ursued after you, and how J the Lorp th_destroyed them unto xthis xday ;
DervTEeRonomy XT. 21.
5 And what He did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into «this xplace ;
6 And what He did unto Dathan and at Abiram, the_sons_of Eliab, the_son_ of Reuben : how the earth opened her “mouth, and swallowed_them_up, and their ~households, and their -tents, and

7 But your eyes x+have_seen all the great acts_of ! the Lorp which He did.

° And that ye tmay_prolong your days oin the gland, which !the Lorp sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land /+that_ floweth with milk and honey.
10 For the land, whither thow +goest_ in to possess it, ,tis not as the_land_of Egypt, from whence ye came_out, where thou tsowedst thy «seed, and -wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden_of xherbs:
1 But the land, whither pe «+go to possess it, 7s a land_of hills and valleys, and 4*drinketh water_of the_rain_of) x=heaven :
12 A land which the Lorp thy =God seacareth_for : the_eyes_of! the Lorp thy =God are always upon it, from the_ beginning_of the year even unto the_| end_of the year.

this day, to love -the Lorp your =God, and to serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul,
14 That I -will_give you the_rain_of your land in his due-_season, the first_ rain and the latter_rain, that thou ‘mayest_gather_in thy corn, and thy n wine, and thine oil.

Jo One witness shall not rise_up against a ‘man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he tsinneth: at the_mouth_of two witnesses, or at the_ mouth_of three witnesses, shall the mat- ter be_established.

Moses’ ADDRESS,
58 If thou wilt not observe to do -all the_words_of xthis xlaw that are_writ- ten in xthis xbook, that thou_mayest_ fear xthis xglorious and xfearful ‘name, J-the Lorp thy =God ;
59 Then Jthe Lorp -will_make thy eplagues wonderful, and «the_plagues_ of thy seed, even great plagues, and of_ long_continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of_long_continuance.
6 Moreover He -will_bring upon thee thou wast_afraid_of; and they -shall_ cleave unto thee.
61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which 7s not written in the_ book_of xthis law, them will Jthe Lorp bring upon thee, until thou be_de- stroyed.
6 And ye«shall_be_left few in number, whereas ye were as the_stars_of x-heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not oe the_voice_of ‘the Lorp thy =God.
63 And it -shall_come_to_pass, that acas 1 the Lorp rejoiced over you to do vou good, and to multiply pow; so’ the Lorp will_rejoice over you to destroy pou, and to bring pon to_nought ; and ye shall_be_plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.
64 And J the Lorp sshall_scatter thee among all x=people, from the_one_end_ of the earth even unto the_other; and there thou -shalt_serve other gods, which neither thon nor thy fathers shaye_known, even wood and stone.
6 And among *these xnations shalt_ thou_find no ease, neither shall the_ sole_of thy foot have_rest: but 4 the Lorp ‘shall_give thee there a trembling heart, and failing_of eyes, and sorrow_ of somind:
6 And thy life shall »hang_in_doubt before thee; and thou -shalt_fear day and night, and shalt_have none assur- ance of thy life:
& In the morning thou shalt_say, ‘Would God it_were_even!’ and at xeven thou shalt say, ‘Would God it_ were_morning!’ for the_fear_of thine heart wherewith thou shalt_fear, and for the_sight_of thine eyes which thou shalt_see.
68 And the Lorp sshall_bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt_see it no more again: and there ye ‘shall_be_sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man 4shall_buy you.”
2 THESE are the_words_of the covenant, which J the Lorp com- manded «Moses to make with the_ schildren_of Israél in the_land_of Moab, beside the covenant which He made with them in Horeb. 2 And Moses called unto all Israél, and said unto them, “He -have_seen call that Jthe Lorp did before your
-| eyes in the_land_of Egypt unto Pharaoh,
and unto all his servants, and unto all his land ;
3 The great xtemptations which thine eyes -have_seen, the signs, and xthose xgreat xmiracles ;

23 And that the_whole_land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it tis not sown, nor ‘beareth, nor any grass 'groweth therein, like the_ overthrow_of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which J the Lorp overthrew in His anger, and in His wrath :
24Fiven all xnations-shall_say, ‘W here- fore ‘hath Jthe Lorp done thus unto xthis xland? what meaneth the_heat_of xthis xgreat xanger?’
2 Then men «shall_say, ‘Because they shave_forsaken -the_covenant_of ‘the Lorp =God_of their fathers, which He cmade with them when He brought
* | them forth out_of the_land_of Egypt:
26 For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom He had not d given unto them :
27 And the_anger_of J the Lorp was_ kindled against xthis upon it -all the -curses that -are_ written in xthis xbook:
28 And J the Lorp rooted them out_of their gland in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as 7 is xthis xday.’
29 The =secret things belong unto 1 the Lorp our =God : but those things
“lwhich are =revealed belong unto us

8 And thow shalt_return and -obey the_voice_of J the Lorp, and do ~all His commandments which £ +command thee this day.

i For xthis xcommandment which £ 4command thee this day, it is not t hidden from thee, neither 7s it far_off.

13 Neither zs it beyond the sea, that_ thou_shouldest_say, ‘Who shall_go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we 'may_hear it, and tdo it?’

2 And he said unto them, “E ama hundred and twenty years old this day ; I can no more go_out and come-in: also Jthe Lorp shath_said unto me, ‘Thou shalt not go_over xthis sJordan.’
31 The Lorp thy =God, He will_go_ over before thee, and He will_destroy xthese xnations from before thee, and thou -shalt_possess them: and Joshua, he +shall_go_over before thee, ac as ! the Lorp shath_said,
4 And J the Lorp sshall_do unto them acas He did to Sihon and to Og, kings_ of the Amorites, and unto the_land_of them, whom He destroyed.
5 And! the Lorp sshall_give_them_up before your face, that ye -‘may_do unto them according_unto all the command- ments which I -have_commanded pon.
6 -Be_strong and of a good_courage, Hear not, nor be_afraid of them: for ‘the Lorp thy =God, He it is x+that doth_go with thee ; He will not fail thee, nor tforsake thee.”
7 And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the_sight_of all Israél, “.Be_strong and of_a_good_courage: for thon 'must_go with xthis xpeople unto the land which 4 the Lorp -hath_ sworn unto their fathers to give them; and thou shalt_cause them to_inherit
it.
8 And Jthe Lorp, He it is xsthat doth_go before thee; Hje will_be with thee, He will not fail thee, neither ‘for- sake thee: ‘fear not, neither 'be_dis- mayed.”
° And Moses wrote this ‘law, and delivered it unto the priests the_sons_ of Levi, xswhich bare -the_ark_of the_ covenant_of Jthe Lorp, and unto all the_elders_of Israél.
10 And Moses commanded them, say- ing, “At the_end_of every seven years, in the_«psolemnity_of the_year_of xre- lease, in the_feast_of » xtabernacles,
11 When all Israél is.come to appear cbefore Jthe Lorp thy =God in the place which He _ shall_choose, thou shalt_read xthis “law before all Israél in their hearing.
12 as*Gather «the people together, exmen, and xwomen, and / children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they 'may_hear, and that they 'may_learn, and -fear J-the Lorp your =God, and -observe to do ~all the_ words_of xthis law :
13 And that their schildren, which shave not known any thing, ‘may_hear, and -learn to fear J*the Lorp your =God, alas long as pe live oin the land peer pe +go_over *Jordan to possess it.”
14 And Jthe Lorp said unto Moses, “Behold, thy days -approach that thou_ must_die: -call “Joshua, and -present_ yourselves in the_tetabernacle_of the congregation, that I may_give_him_a_ charge.” And Moses and Joshua went and presented themselves in the_te ta- bernacle_of the congregation.
15 And Jthe Lorp appeared in the tetabernacle in a pillar_of a cloud: and the_pillar_of the cloud stood over the_e door_of the ¢e tabernacle.
16 And ‘the Lorp said unto Moses,

Ww Then My anger -shall_be_kindled against them in xthat xday, and I will forsake them, and I -will_hide My face from them, and they sshall_be de- youred, and many evils and troubles ‘shall_befall them; so that they -will_ say in xthat day, ‘-Are not xthese

is not among us?”
18 And £ will_surely thide My face in xthat xday for all the evils which they sshall_have_wrought, in_that they -are_ turned unto other gods.
19 Now therefore «write ye xthis *song for you, and -teach it -the_schildren_ of Israel: -put it in their mouths, that xthis xsong 'may_be a witness for Me against the_s children_of Israél.
20 For when I shall_have_brought them into the gland which I sware unto their fathers, +that_floweth with milk and honey ; and they -shall_have_ eaten and «filled themselves, and -waxen fat; then -will_they_turn unto other gods, and -serve them, and ¢-provoke Me, and -break My -covenant.

up? 31 For their rock 7s not as our Rock, Even our enemies themselves being judges, 32 For their vine is of the_vine_of Sodom, And of the_fields_of Gomiorrah : Their grapes are grapes_of gall, Their clusters wre bitter : 33 Their wine is the_poison_of dra- gons, And the_cruel_venom_of asps. 347s not this laid_up_in_store with

before the_schildren_of Israél, «cas Moses spake unto them:
13 About forty thousand prepared for xwar passed_over before ? the LorD unto xbattle, to the_plains_of Jericho.
14 On xthat «day / the LorD magnified -Joshua in the_sight_of all Israel; and they feared him, «cas they feared -Moses, all the_days_of his life.
15 And / the Lorp spake unto Joshua, saying, 16“-Command -the priests +that_bear the_ark_of the testimony, that they come_up out_of xJordan.”
17 Joshua therefore commanded «the priests, saying, “-Come_ye_up out_of xJordan.”
18 And it came_to_pass, when the priests +that_bare the_ark_of the_cove-
‘nant_of J the Lorp were_come_up out_
of the_midst_of xJordan, and the_ soles_of the priests’ feet were_lifted_up unto the dry_land, that the_waters_of xJordan returned unto their place, and flowed over all his banks, as they did before.
19 And the people came_up_ out_of xJordan on the_tenth_day_of the first xmonth, and encamped in g xGilgal, in the_east border_of Jericho.
2 And xthose -twelve xstones, which they took out_of xJordan, did Joshua pitch in xGilgal.
21 And he spake unto the_schildren_ of Israél, saying, “ When your schildren shall_ask their -fathers ‘in_time_to_ come, saying, ‘What mean xthese xstones ?’
Then ye ‘shall_let your s-children know, saying, ‘Israél came_over xthis xJordan on xdry_land.’
23 For Jthe Lorp your =God dried_ up ~the_waters_of xJordan from before you, until ye were_passed_over, acas ‘the Lorp your =God did to the Red sea, which He dried_up from before us, until we were_gone_over:
2% That all the_=people_of the earth might_know «the_hand_of ! the Lorp, that it 7s mighty: that ye might_fear Jethe Lord your =God «for ever.”
AND it came_to_pass, when all the_ 5 kings_of the Amorites, which were on the_side_of xJordan westward, and all the_kings_of the Canaanites, which were by the sea, heard «that ‘the Lorp had_dried_up -the_waters_of xJordan from before the_schildren_of Israél, until we were_passed_over, that their heart melted, neither was_there spirit in them any_more, because of the_ schildren-_of Israel.
2 At xthat xtime J the Lorp said unto Joshua, “*Make thee fsharp_ knives, and «circumcise again -the_schildren_ of Israél the second_time.”
3 And Joshua made him / sharp
knives, and circumcised -the-schil- |i
dren_of Israél at the_hill_of the fore- skins.
4 And this is the cause why Joshua did_circumcise: All the people xthat came_out of Egypt, that were xmales,
35. even all the_« men_of xwar, died in the _ |wilderness by the way, after they came
out_of Egypt.
JosHua VI. 3.
5 Now all the -people x-that came_ out were circumcised : but all the -peo- ple that were xborn in the wilderness by the way as they came_forth out_of Egypt, them they had not circumcised.
® For the_sch#idren_of Israél walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the npeople that were @men_of xwar, xswhich came out_of Egypt, were_con- sumed, because they # obeyed not the_ voice_of ! the Lorp: unto whom /the LorpD sware that He would not shew them the land, which ! the Lorp sware unto their fathers that He would_give us, a land «that_floweth with milk and honey.
7 And their s«children, whom He raised_up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircum- cised, because they had not circumcised trent by the way.
8 And it came_to_pass, when they had_done circumcising all the n peo- ple, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were_whole.
9 And ‘the Lorp said unto Joshua, “This day shave_I_rolled_away -the_ reproach_of Egypt from off you.” Wherefore the_name_of the place is_ called 9 Gilgal unto xthis day.
10 And the_schildren_of Israel en- camped in xGilgal, and kept ~the pass- over on the_fourteenth day of the month at xeven in the_plains_of Jericho.
tt And they did_eat of the_pyold_ corn_of the land on the_morrow-after the passover, unleayened_cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame xday.
2 And the mmanna ceased on the_ morrow-after they had_eaten of the_ pold_corn_of the land; neither had the_schildren_of Israél manna any_ more; but they did_eat of the_» fruit_ of the_land_of Canaan xthat xyear.
18 And it came_to_pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted_up his eyes and looked, and, behold, -there_ stood a ‘man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, “Avt thow for us, or for our adversaries ?”
14 And he said,“Nay; but as pcaptain_ of the_host_of Jthe Lorp -am £ now come.” And Joshua fell on his face to the_earth, and did_worship, and said unto him, “What saith «my -lord unto his servant ?”
1 And the_captain_of ‘the Lorp’s host said unto Joshua, “*Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thow -standest ,iis holy.”
And Joshua did so.
6 NOW Jericho sh +was_straitly shut_ up because of the_s children_of Is-
raél: none +went_out, and none +came_
n. 2 And ‘the Lorp said unto Joshua, “See, I shave_given into thine hand -Jericho, and -the_king thereof, and the_mighty_men_of xvalour.
8 And ye «shall_compass «the city, all ye «men_of xwar, and go_round_about rine city once. Thus shalt_thou_do six

4 And seven priests shall_bear before the ark seven trumpets_of J xrams’_ horns: and the seventh xday ye shall_ compass «the city seven times, and the priests shall_blow with the trumpets.
5 And it -shall_come_to_pass, that when they make_a_long blast with the hyam’s horn, and when ye hear -the_ sound_of the trumpet, all the people shall_shout with a great shout; and the_wall_of the city -shall_fall_.down wflat, and the people -shall_ascend_up tevery_man straight_before him.”
6 And Joshua the_son_of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, “*Take_ up -the_ark_of the covenant, and Het seven priests bear seven trumpets_of Jrams’_horns before the_ark_of J the Lorp.”
7 And he said unto the people, “+Pass_ on, and -compass «the city, and tet xshim_that is_armed pass_on before the_ark_of! the Lorp.”
8 And it came_to_pass, when Joshua had_spoken unto the people, that the_ seven xpriests bearing the_seven trum- pets of J xrams’_horns passed_on before ‘the Lor», and -blew with the trumpets: and the_ark_of the_covenant_of ! the Lorp +followed them.
9 And the armed_men +went before the priests +that_blew_with the trum- pets, and the r rereward +came after the ark, the priests going_on, and blowing with the trumpets.
10 And Joshua had_commanded +the people, saying, “Ye shall not shout, nor emake any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out_of your mouth, until the_day I bid you ‘shout ; then -shall_ye_shout.”

they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
12 And Joshua rose_early in the morn- ing, and the priests took_up «the_ark_of ‘the Lorp.
13 And seven xpriests bearing seven trumpets of 7 xrams’_horns before the_ ark_of! the Lorp+went_on ‘continually, and ‘blew with the trumpets: and the armed_men +went before them ; but the »rereward +came after the_ark_of / the LorD, the priests going_on, and blowing with the trumpets.
14 And the second xday they com- passed -the city once, and returned into the camp : so they did six days.
15 And it came_to_pass on the seventh xday, that they rose_early «about the dawning of the day, and compassed “the city after the same_xmanner seven times: only on xthat xday they com- passed «the city seven times.
16 And it came_to_pass at the seventh xtime, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, “Shout; for ‘the Lorp -hath_given you -the city.
7 And the city -shall_be @ accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to Jthe Loxp: only Rahab the harlot shall_live, she and all that ae with her in the house, because she hid -the messengers that we sent.
18 And pe in any_wise -keep yourselves
JosHvA VIL. 3.
from the daccursed_thing, lest ye) B.C.1451 'make_yourselves_d accursed, when 4
take of the ¢ accursed_thing, and « e -the_camp_of Israél a dcurse, and «trouble it. ‘
19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels_of brass and iron, at are )con- secrated unto ! the Lorp: they shall_ come_into the_treasury_of ! the Lorp.”
2 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came_to_pass, when the people heard 35. HL -the_sound_of the trumpet, and the} 3;° 39, people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell.down “flat, so that the people went_up into the city, ‘every_|é. i man straight_before him, and they took cthe city.
21 And they utterly_d destroyed -all that was in the city, both iman and woman, young and old, and ox, and ghee, and ass, with the_edge_of the sword.
22 But Joshua had_said unto the_two xmen «that had_spied_out -the coun- try, “-Go_into the harlot’s house, and *bring_out thence -the woman, and -all that she hath, «ec as ye sware unto her.”
3 And the young_men x+that were_ spies went_in, and brought_out -Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her -brethren, and -all that she had; and they brought_out «all her kindred, and left them without the_camp-of Is- raél,
24 And they burnt the city with «fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the_vessels_of xbrass and of xiron, they put into the_ treasury_of the_house_of / the Lorp.
25 And Joshua saved -Rahab the har- lot alive, and her -father’s household, and «all that she had ; and she dwelleth in »tIsraél even unto xthis xday; be- cause she hid -the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy_out -Jericho,
26 And Joshua adjured them at xthat xtime, saying, “Cursed be the ‘man be- fore ‘the Lorp, that 'riseth_up and sbuildeth xthis *city “Jericho : he shall_ lay_the_foundation thereof in his first-| 34, born, and in his youngest son shall_he_ set_up the_gates_of it.”
27 So ‘the Lorp was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
BUT the-_s children_of Israél com- mitted a trespass in the @accursed_ thing : for «c Achan, the_son_of Carmi, |*: the_son_of Zabdi, the_son_of Zerah, of| “f the_tribe_of Judah, took of the cursed_thing: and the_anger_of ! the Lorp was_kindled against the_s chil- dren_of Israél.
2 And Joshua sent «men from Je- richo to «xAi, which 7s beside 4 Beth- aven, on the_east_side_of 4e Beth-él, and spake unto them, saying, “*Go_up and -view @men went_up and viewed ¥Ai.
83 And they returned to Joshua, and said unto him, “ Let not all the people go_up; but ‘let about two or three God thousand ‘men go_up and smite *Ai;|; “1, and ‘make not -all the people to labour thither ; for thep a7e but few.”

4 So there went_up thither of the people about three thousand imen: and they fled before the_@ men_of Ai.
5 And the_« men_of xAi smote of them about thirty and siximen: for they chased them from before the gate even unto shxShebarim, and smote them in the going_down: wherefore 'the_ hearts_of the people melted, and be- came as water. ‘
6And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell to the_earth upon his face before the_ark_of J the Lorp until the even- tide, he and the_elders_of Israél, and put dust upon their heads.
7 And Joshua said, “ Alas, O_4=Lord 1Gop, wherefore hast Thou at all brought xthis xpeople over xJordan, to deliver 1s into the_hand_of the Amor- ites, to destroy us? would to God we had_been_content, and dwelt on the_ other_side xJordan !
§ QO_4=Lord, what shall_I_say, when Israél -turneth their «backs before their enemies !
® For the Canaanites and all the_in- habitants_of the land shall_hear of it, and -shall_environ_us_round, and «cut_ off our «name from the earth: and what wilt_Thou_do unto Thy name ?”
10 And J the Lorp said unto Joshua, “sGet_thee_up ; wherefore / +liest thou thus upon thy face?
M1 Jsraél -hath_sinned, and they shave also transgressed My covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the “accursed_thing, and shaye also stolen, and dissembled also, and they :have_put 7¢ even among their_own stuff.
12 Therefore the_s children_of Israél Feould not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they were ¢@ accursed : neither will_I_be with you any_more, except ye 'destroy the ¢-accursed from you.
13 “Up, sanctify «the people, and :say, *Sanctify_yourselves against to-mor- row: for thus -saith ' the Lorp =God_ of Israél, There ts an @accursed_thing in the_midst_of thee, O_Israél: thou teanst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take_away the @accursed_ thing from among you.’
14 In the morning therefore ye sshall_ be_brought according_to your tribes: and it -shall_be, that the tribe which ‘the Lord taketh shall_come accord- ing_to the families thereof; and the family which ‘the Lorp shall_take shall.come by households; and the household which Jthe Lorp shall_take shall_come s¢man by s¢man.
1 And it -shall_be, that xshe_that is_ taken with the daccursed_thing shall_ be_tburnt with ~fire, le and he hath: because he *hath_transgressed -the_covenant_of Jthe Lorp, and be- cause he -hath_wrought folly in Israél.”
16 So Joshua rose_up_early in the morning, and brought «Israél by their tribes; and the_tribe_of Judah was_ taken:
W And he brought -the_family_of Judah; and he took -«the_family_of
JOSHUA
the Zarhites: and he brought -the_ family_of the Zarhites s¢ man by s¢ man; and Zabdi was_taken :
18 And he brought his household stman by sé man; and Achan, the_son_ of Carmi, the_son_of Zabdi, the_son_of Zerah, of the_tribe_of Judah, was_taken.
19 And Joshua said unto Achan, “My son, «give, I_pray_thee, glory to ‘the Lord =God_of Israél, and -make_ confession unto Him; and -tell me now what thou -hast_done; thide 7t not from me.”
20 And Achan answered -Joshua, and said, “Indeed £ have sinned against ‘the Lory =God_of Israél, and thus and thus shave_I_done:
21 When I saw among the spoils oa goodly shkBabylonish garment, and two_hundred shekels_of silver, and oa twedge_of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hid in the earth in the_midst_of my xtent, and the silver under it.”
2 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it ues hid in his tent, and the silver under it. 3
2 -.And they took them out_of the_ midst_of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the_schil- dren_of Israél, and »laid_them_out before J the Lorn.
2 And Joshua, and all Israél with him, took ~Achan the_son_of Zerah, and cthe silver, and -the garment, and -the_t wedge_of xgold, and his and his -daughters, and his ~oxen, and his -asses, and his sheep, and his -tent, and all that he had: and they brought them unto the_valley_of « Achor.
2 And Joshua said, “Why -hast_ thou_troubled us? J¢he Lorp shall_ trouble thee xthis xday.” And all Is- raél stoned hit with stones, and burned them with ~fire, after they had_ stoned thei with stones.
% And they raised over him a great heap_of stones unto xthis xday. So ‘the Lorp turned from the_fierce- ness_of His anger. Wherefore the_ name_of xthat xplace was_called, “The_ valley_of « Achor,” unto xthis xday.
AND ‘the Lorp said unto Joshua, “tFear not, neither 'be_thou_dis- mayed: stake -all the_people_of xwar with thee, and «arise, -go_up to xAi: see, I -have_given into thy hand king_of xAi, and his -people, and his ecity, and his “land :
2 And thou -shalt_do to xAi and her king «cas thou didst unto Jericho and her king: only the_spoil thereof, and the_cattle thereof, shall_ye_take_for_a_ prey unto yourselves : ‘lay thee an am-
ush for the city behind it.”
8So Joshua arose, and all the_people_ of xwar, to go_up_against xAi: and Joshua chose_out thirty thousand mighty *men_of xvalour, and sent_ them_away by night.
4 And he confmanded them, saying, “Behold, pe shall_lie_in_wait against the city, even behind the city: 'gonot
