00:01.200 --> 00:05.000
And it came to pass, when all the people
were clean passed over Jordan,

00:05.440 --> 00:08.920
that the LORD spake unto Joshua,
saying, Take you twelve men out of the

00:08.920 --> 00:14.540
people, out of every tribe a man,
and command ye them, saying, Take you

00:14.540 --> 00:18.320
hence out of the midst of Jordan,
out of the place where the priest's feet

00:18.320 --> 00:23.860
stood firm, twelve stones, and ye shall
carry them over with you, and leave them

00:23.860 --> 00:26.780
in the lodging place, where ye shall lodge
this night.

00:26.780 --> 00:30.720
Then Joshua called the twelve men whom he
had prepared of the children of Israel,

00:30.980 --> 00:32.300
out of every tribe a man.

00:32.820 --> 00:36.900
And Joshua said unto them, Pass over
before the ark of the LORD your God into

00:36.900 --> 00:42.580
the midst of Jordan, and take ye up,
every man of you, a stone upon his

00:42.580 --> 00:46.240
shoulder, according unto the number of the
tribes of the children of Israel,

00:47.160 --> 00:51.620
that this may be a sign among you,
that when your children ask their fathers

00:51.620 --> 00:55.480
in time to come, saying, What mean ye by
these stones?

00:56.360 --> 01:02.320
Then ye shall answer them, That the waters
of Jordan were cut off before the ark of

01:02.320 --> 01:03.320
the covenant of the LORD.

01:03.920 --> 01:10.320
When it passed over Jordan, the waters of
Jordan were cut off, and these stones

01:10.320 --> 01:14.740
shall be for a memorial unto the children
of Israel for ever.

01:15.280 --> 01:19.440
And the children of Israel did so as
Joshua commanded, and took up twelve

01:19.440 --> 01:22.880
stones out of the midst of Jordan,
as the LORD spake unto Joshua,

01:23.180 --> 01:26.680
according to the number of the tribes of
the children of Israel, and carried them

01:26.680 --> 01:29.940
over with them unto the place where they
lodged, and laid them down there.

01:30.620 --> 01:34.660
And Joshua set up twelve stones in the
midst of Jordan, in the place where the

01:34.660 --> 01:38.520
feet of the priests which bear the ark of
the covenant stood, and they are there

01:38.520 --> 01:39.560
unto this day.

01:40.920 --> 01:44.840
For the priests which bear the ark stood
in the midst of Jordan, until everything

01:44.840 --> 01:47.740
was finished that the LORD commanded
Joshua to speak unto the people,

01:47.900 --> 01:50.360
according to all that Moses commanded
Joshua.

01:50.880 --> 01:52.900
And the people hasted and passed over.

01:53.800 --> 01:57.480
And it came to pass, when all the people
were clean passed over, that the ark of

01:57.480 --> 02:00.500
the LORD passed over, and the priests in
the presence of the people.

02:01.100 --> 02:04.640
And the children of Reuben, and the
children of Gad, and half the tribe of

02:04.640 --> 02:08.720
Manasseh passed over armed before the
children of Israel, as Moses spake unto

02:08.720 --> 02:09.000
them.

02:09.620 --> 02:13.900
About forty thousand prepared for war
passed over before the LORD unto battle to

02:13.900 --> 02:14.880
the plains of Jericho.

02:16.200 --> 02:20.620
On that day the LORD magnified Joshua in
the sight of all Israel, and they feared

02:20.620 --> 02:23.620
him as they feared Moses all the days of
his life.

02:24.020 --> 02:28.020
And the LORD spake unto Joshua,
saying, Command the priests that bear the

02:28.020 --> 02:31.000
ark of the testimony, that they come up
out of Jordan.

02:31.620 --> 02:35.360
Joshua therefore commanded the priests,
saying, Come ye up out of Jordan.

02:35.720 --> 02:38.980
And it came to pass, when the priests that
bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD

02:38.980 --> 02:42.880
were come up out of the midst of Jordan,
and the soles of the priests' feet were

02:42.880 --> 02:46.940
lifted up unto the dry land, that the
waters of Jordan returned unto their

02:46.940 --> 02:50.460
place, and flowed over all his banks,
as they did before.

02:51.500 --> 02:54.420
And the people came up out of Jordan on
the tenth day of the first month,

02:54.680 --> 02:57.340
and encamped in Gilgal, in the east border
of Jericho.

02:57.840 --> 03:02.060
And those twelve stones which they took
out of Jordan did Joshua pitch in Gilgal.

03:02.480 --> 03:06.500
And he spake unto the children of Israel,
saying, When your children shall ask their

03:06.500 --> 03:10.220
fathers in time to come, saying,
What mean these stones?

03:11.200 --> 03:16.700
Then ye shall let your children know,
saying, Israel came over this Jordan on

03:16.700 --> 03:17.700
dry land.

03:18.420 --> 03:23.440
For the LORD your God dried up the waters
of Jordan from before you, until you were

03:23.440 --> 03:27.980
passed over, as the LORD your God did to
the Red Sea, which he dried up from before

03:27.980 --> 03:29.660
us, until we were gone over.

03:30.540 --> 03:34.120
That all the people of the earth might
know the hand of the LORD, that it is

03:34.120 --> 03:37.980
mighty, that ye might fear the LORD your
God for ever.
