| 1 | (5-16) Jericho was straitly shut off [the fear of] the children of Israel: none went out [of it], and none came. |
| 2 | (6-1) Then the LORD said to Joshua, Behold, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, [and there are] men of valor; |
| 3 | (6-2) go around the city, all the men of war, and go round about the city once [a day]; Thus shalt thou do six days; |
| 4 | (6-3), and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark; and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets; |
| 5 | (6-4) when he blow's horn, when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a loud voice, and the wall of the city will fall down flat, and [all] the people go [to the city, rushing] each with his hand.
|
| 6 | (6-5) And Joshua son of Nun called the priests [of Israel], and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant; and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Jehovah. |
| 7 | (6-6) and said to the people: Go, and compass the city, let the armed men pass on before the ark of the LORD. |
| 8 | (6-7) As soon as Jesus said to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the Lord, and blew with the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them; |
| 9 | (6-8) armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets; and going behind the ark followed, during a procession blowing trumpets. |
| 10 | (6-9) The people as Joshua commanded, and said: Do not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth before [that] of the day, until I tell you, 'Shout!' then shall ye shout. |
| eleven | (6-10) Thus the ark of the [covenant] of Jehovah went around the city and walked once; and they came into the camp and lodged in the camp. |
| 12 | (6-11) [The next day] Jesus got up early in the morning, and the priests bearing the ark of the [covenant] of the Lord; |
| 13 | (6-12) and the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the Lord, went and blew the trumpets; armed men went before them, and reaching behind followed the ark of the [Covenant] LORD, and blew with the trumpets iduchi. |
| 14 | (6-13) In this way, and the next day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. And they did six days. |
| 15 | (6-14) On the seventh day they rose early, at dawn, and walked in the same way around the city seven times; Only on this day they marched around the city seven times. |
| 16 | (6-15) When the seventh time the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city!
|
| 17 | (6-16), the city shall be accursed, and all that is in it, to the Lord; Only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all who are with her in the house; because she hid the messengers whom we sent; |
| 18 | (6-17) but you beware of the cursed thing, and so by not being subjected to curse, if you take something from the accursed thing, and that the host of [the children of] Israel does not bring the spell and do not trouble him; |
| 19 | (6-18) and all the silver and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated to the Lord and come into the treasury of the Lord. |
| 20 | (6-19) the people shouted, and they blew the trumpets. As soon as the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the people shouted with a loud voice, and collapsed walls [of the city] to its foundation, and the people went into the city, each with his hand, and took the city. |
| 21 | (6-20) And they utterly destroyed all that is in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and asses, [all destroyed] the sword. |
| 22 | (6-21) And the two men that had spied out the land, Joshua said, Go into the harlot's house and bring out thence the woman, and all that she has, as you swore to her. |
| 23 | (6-22) And they went to the young men that were spies [town house in woman's] and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother, and her brothers, and all that she [was], and all the relatives brought it, and put them outside the camp of Israel. |
| 24 | (6-23) And the city and all that is in it, burned with fire; Only the silver and gold and vessels of brass and iron, they put into the treasury of the Lord's house. |
| 25 | (6-24) Rahab the harlot and her father's house, and all that she [had] Jesus left alive, and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day, because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho. |
| 26 | (6-25) At that time Jesus swore and said: Cursed before the Lord who rises up and builds this city Jericho; his firstborn he laid the foundation, and his youngest he set up its gates. |
| 27 | (6-26) And the Lord was with Joshua, and his fame was in all the land. |
