3:1 And
Joshua
rose
up
early
in
the
morning;
and
they
removed
from
Shittim,
and
came
to
the
Jordan,
he
and
all
the
children
of
Israel;
and
they
lodged
there
before
they
passed
over.
3:2 And
it
came
to
pass
after
three
days,
that
the
officers
went
through
the
midst
of
the
camp;
3:3 and
they
commanded
the
people,
saying,
When
ye
see
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
your
God,
and
the
priests
the
Levites
bearing
it,
then
ye
shall
remove
from
your
place,
and
go
after
it.
3:4 Yet
there
shall
be
a
space
between
you
and
it,
about
two
thousand
cubits
by
measure:
come
not
near
unto
it,
that
ye
may
know
the
way
by
which
ye
must
go;
for
ye
have
not
passed
this
way
heretofore.
3:5 And
Joshua
said
unto
the
people,
Sanctify
yourselves;
for
tomorrow
Jehovah
will
do
wonders
among
you.
3:6 And
Joshua
spake
unto
the
priests,
saying,
Take
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
pass
over
before
the
people.
And
they
took
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
went
before
the
people.
3:7 And
Jehovah
said
unto
Joshua,
This
day
will
I
begin
to
magnify
thee
in
the
sight
of
all
Israel,
that
they
may
know
that,
as
I
was
with
Moses,
so
I
will
be
with
thee.
3:8 And
thou
shalt
command
the
priests
that
bear
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
saying,
When
ye
are
come
to
the
brink
of
the
waters
of
the
Jordan,
ye
shall
stand
still
in
the
Jordan.
3:9 And
Joshua
said
unto
the
children
of
Israel,
Come
hither,
and
hear
the
words
of
Jehovah
your
God.
3:10 And
Joshua
said,
Hereby
ye
shall
know
that
the
living
God
is
among
you,
and
that
he
will
without
fail
drive
out
from
before
you
the
Canaanite,
and
the
Hittite,
and
the
Hivite,
and
the
Perizzite,
and
the
Girgashite,
and
the
Amorite,
and
the
Jebusite.
3:11 Behold,
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth
passeth
over
before
you
into
the
Jordan.
3:12 Now
therefore
take
you
twelve
men
out
of
the
tribes
of
Israel,
for
every
tribe
a
man.
3:13 And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
when
the
soles
of
the
feet
of
the
priests
that
bear
the
ark
of
Jehovah,
the
Lord
of
all
the
earth,
shall
rest
in
the
waters
of
the
Jordan,
that
the
waters
of
the
Jordan
shall
be
cut
off,
even
the
waters
that
come
down
from
above;
and
they
shall
stand
in
one
heap.
3:14 And
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
people
removed
from
their
tents,
to
pass
over
the
Jordan,
the
priests
that
bare
the
ark
of
the
covenant
being
before
the
people;
3:15 and
when
they
that
bare
the
ark
were
come
unto
the
Jordan,
and
the
feet
of
the
priests
that
bare
the
ark
were
dipped
in
the
brink
of
the
water
(for
the
Jordan
overfloweth
all
its
banks
all
the
time
of
harvest,)
3:16 that
the
waters
which
came
down
from
above
stood,
and
rose
up
in
one
heap,
a
great
way
off,
at
Adam,
the
city
that
is
beside
Zarethan;
and
those
that
went
down
toward
the
sea
of
the
Arabah,
even
the
Salt
Sea,
were
wholly
cut
off:
and
the
people
passed
over
right
against
Jericho.
3:17 And
the
priests
that
bare
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
Jehovah
stood
firm
on
dry
ground
in
the
midst
of
the
Jordan;
and
all
Israel
passed
over
on
dry
ground,
until
all
the
nation
were
passed
clean
over
the
Jordan.
