1 # Now Jericho <03405> was straitly <05462> (8802) shut up <05462> (8794) because <06440> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: none went out <03318> (8802), and none came in <0935> (8802).
2 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Joshua <03091>, See <07200> (8798), I have given <05414> (8804) into thine hand <03027> Jericho <03405>, and the king <04428> thereof, and the mighty men <01368> of valour <02428>.
3 And ye shall compass <05437> (8804) the city <05892>, all ye men <0582> of war <04421>, and go round about <05362> (8687) the city <05892> once <06471> <0259>. Thus shalt thou do <06213> (8799) six <08337> days <03117>.
4 And seven <07651> priests <03548> shall bear <05375> (8799) before <06440> the ark <0727> seven <07651> trumpets <07782> of rams' horns <03104>: and the seventh <07637> day <03117> ye shall compass <05437> (8799) the city <05892> seven <07651> times <06471>, and the priests <03548> shall blow <08628> (8799) with the trumpets <07782> .
5 And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long <04900> (8800) blast with the ram's <03104> horn <07161>, and when ye hear <08085> (8800) the sound <06963> of the trumpet <07782>, all the people <05971> shall shout <07321> (8686) with a great <01419> shout <08643>; and the wall <02346> of the city <05892> shall fall down <05307> (8804) flat <08478>, and the people <05971> shall ascend up <05927> (8804) every man <0376> straight before him.
6 # And Joshua <03091> the son <01121> of Nun <05126> called <07121> (8799) the priests <03548>, and said <0559> (8799) unto them, Take up <05375> (8798) the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285>, and let seven <07651> priests <03548> bear <05375> (8799) seven <07651> trumpets <07782> of rams' horns <03104> before <06440> the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068>.
7 And he said <0559> (8799) unto the people <05971>, Pass on <05674> (8798), and compass <05437> (8798) the city <05892>, and let him that is armed <02502> (8803) pass on <05674> (8799) before <06440> the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068>.
8 And it came to pass, when Joshua <03091> had spoken <0559> (8800) unto the people <05971>, that the seven <07651> priests <03548> bearing <05375> (8802) the seven <07651> trumpets <07782> of rams' horns <03104> passed on <05674> (8804) before <06440> the LORD <03068>, and blew <08628> (8804) with the trumpets <07782>: and the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> followed <01980> (8802) them <0310>.
9 And the armed <02502> (8803) men went <01980> (8802) before <06440> the priests <03548> that blew <08628> (8802) (8675) <08628> (8804) with the trumpets <07782>, and the rereward <0622> (8764) came <01980> (8802) after <0310> the ark <0727>, the priests going on <01980> (8800), and blowing <08628> (8800) with the trumpets <07782>.
10 And Joshua <03091> had commanded <06680> (8765) the people <05971>, saying <0559> (8800), Ye shall not shout <07321> (8686), nor make any noise <08085> (8686) with your voice <06963>, neither shall any word <01697> proceed <03318> (8799) out of your mouth <06310>, until the day <03117> I bid <0559> (8800) you shout <07321> (8685); then shall ye shout <07321> (8689).
11 So the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> compassed <05437> (8686) the city <05892>, going about <05362> (8687) it once <06471> <0259>: and they came <0935> (8799) into the camp <04264>, and lodged <03885> (8799) in the camp <04264>.
12 And Joshua <03091> rose early <07925> (8686) in the morning <01242>, and the priests <03548> took up <05375> (8799) the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068>.
13 And seven <07651> priests <03548> bearing <05375> (8802) seven <07651> trumpets <07782> of rams' horns <03104> before <06440> the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> went on <01980> (8802) continually <01980> (8800), and blew <08628> (8804) with the trumpets <07782>: and the armed men <02502> (8803) went <01980> (8802) before <06440> them; but the rereward <0622> (8764) came <01980> (8802) after <0310> the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068>, the priests going on <01980> (8800), and blowing <08628> (8800) with the trumpets <07782>.
14 And the second <08145> day <03117> they compassed <05437> (8799) the city <05892> once <06471> <0259>, and returned <07725> (8799) into the camp <04264>: so they did <06213> (8804) six <08337> days <03117> .
15 And it came to pass on the seventh <07637> day <03117>, that they rose early <07925> (8686) about the dawning <05927> (8800) of the day <07837>, and compassed <05437> (8799) the city <05892> after the same manner <04941> seven <07651> times <06471>: only on that day <03117> they compassed <05437> (8804) the city <05892> seven <07651> times <06471>.
16 And it came to pass at the seventh <07637> time <06471>, when the priests <03548> blew <08628> (8804) with the trumpets <07782>, Joshua <03091> said <0559> (8799) unto the people <05971>, Shout <07321> (8685); for the LORD <03068> hath given <05414> (8804) you the city <05892>.
17 # And the city <05892> shall be accursed <02764>, even it, and all that are therein, to the LORD <03068>: only Rahab <07343> the harlot <02181> (8802) shall live <02421> (8799), she and all that are with her in the house <01004>, because she hid <02244> (8689) the messengers <04397> that we sent <07971> (8804).
18 And ye, in any wise <07535> keep <08104> (8798) yourselves from the accursed thing <02764>, lest ye make yourselves accursed <02763> (8686), when ye take <03947> (8804) of the accursed thing <02764>, and make <07760> (8804) the camp <04264> of Israel <03478> a curse <02764>, and trouble <05916> (8804) it.
19 But all the silver <03701>, and gold <02091>, and vessels <03627> of brass <05178> and iron <01270>, are consecrated <06944> unto the LORD <03068>: they shall come <0935> (8799) into the treasury <0214> of the LORD <03068>.
20 So the people <05971> shouted <07321> (8686) when the priests blew <08628> (8799) with the trumpets <07782>: and it came to pass, when the people <05971> heard <08085> (8800) the sound <06963> of the trumpet <07782>, and the people <05971> shouted <07321> (8686) with a great <01419> shout <08643>, that the wall <02346> fell down flat <05307> (8799), so that the people <05971> went up <05927> (8799) into the city <05892>, every man <0376> straight before him, and they took <03920> (8799) the city <05892>.
21 And they utterly destroyed <02763> (8686) all that was in the city <05892>, both man <0376> and woman <0802> , young <05288> and old <02205>, and ox <07794>, and sheep <07716>, and ass <02543>, with the edge <06310> of the sword <02719>.
22 But Joshua <03091> had said <0559> (8804) unto the two <08147> men <0582> that had spied out <07270> (8764) the country <0776>, Go <0935> (8798) into the harlot's <02181> (8802) house <01004>, and bring out <03318> (8685) thence the woman <0802>, and all that she hath, as ye sware <07650> (8738) unto her.
23 And the young men <05288> that were spies <07270> (8764) went in <0935> (8799), and brought out <03318> (8686) Rahab <07343>, and her father <01>, and her mother <0517>, and her brethren <0251>, and all that she had; and they brought out <03318> (8689) all her kindred <04940>, and left <03240> (8686) them without <02351> the camp <04264> of Israel <03478>.
24 And they burnt <08313> (8804) the city <05892> with fire <0784>, and all that was therein: only the silver <03701>, and the gold <02091>, and the vessels <03627> of brass <05178> and of iron <01270>, they put <05414> (8804) into the treasury <0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.
25 And Joshua <03091> saved <02421> <00> Rahab <07343> the harlot <02181> (8802) alive <02421> (8689), and her father's <01> household <01004>, and all that she had; and she dwelleth <03427> (8799) in <07130> Israel <03478> even unto this day <03117>; because she hid <02244> (8689) the messengers <04397>, which Joshua <03091> sent <07971> (8804) to spy out <07270> (8763) Jericho <03405>.
26 And Joshua <03091> adjured <07650> (8686) them at that time <06256>, saying <0559> (8800) , Cursed <0779> (8803) be the man <0376> before <06440> the LORD <03068>, that riseth up <06965> (8799) and buildeth <01129> (8804) this city <05892> Jericho <03405>: he shall lay the foundation <03245> (8762) thereof in his firstborn <01060>, and in his youngest <06810> son shall he set up <05324> (8686) the gates <01817> of it.
27 So the LORD <03068> was with Joshua <03091>; and his fame <08089> was noised throughout all the country <0776>.
