Now Jericho
was straitly
shut up
because
of the children
of Israel:
none went out,
and none came in.
And the LORD
said
unto Joshua,
See,
I have given
into thine hand
Jericho,
and the king
thereof, and the mighty men
of valour.
say
under the hand
ὑποχείριόν

And ye shall compass
the city,
all ye men
of war,
and go round about
the city
once.
Thus shalt thou do
six
days.
And seven
priests
shall bear
before
the ark
seven
trumpets
of rams' horns:
and the seventh
day
ye shall compass
the city
seven
times,
and the priests
shall blow
with the trumpets.
And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long
blast with the ram'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
flat,
and the people
shall ascend up
every man
straight before him.
And Joshua
the son
of Nun
called
the priests,
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 the LORD.
And he said
unto the people,
Pass on,
and compass
the city,
and let him that is armed
pass on
before
the ark
of the LORD.

And it came to pass, when Joshua
had spoken
unto the people,
that the seven
priests
bearing
the seven
trumpets
of rams' horns
passed on
before
the LORD,
and blew
with the trumpets:
and the ark
of the covenant
of the LORD
followed
them.
And the armed
men went
before
the priests
that blew
with the trumpets,
and the rereward
came
after
the ark,
the priests going on,
and blowing
with the trumpets.

And Joshua
had commanded
the people,
saying,
Ye shall not shout,
nor make 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.
So the ark
of the LORD
compassed
the city,
going about
it once:
and they came
into the camp,
and lodged
in the camp.
And Joshua
rose early
in the morning,
and the priests
took up
the ark
of the LORD.
And seven
priests
bearing
seven
trumpets
of rams' horns
before
the ark
of the LORD
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.

And the second
day
they compassed
the city
once,
and returned
into the camp:
so they did
six
days.
And it came to pass on the seventh
day,
that they rose early
about the dawning
of the day,
and compassed
the city
after the same manner
seven
times:
only on that day
they compassed
the city
seven
times.
And it came to pass at the seventh
time,
when the priests
blew
with the trumpets,
Joshua
said
unto the people,
Shout;
for the LORD
hath given
you the city.
And the city
shall be accursed,
even it, and all that are therein, to the LORD:
only Rahab
the harlot
shall live,
she and all that are with her in the house,
because she hid
the messengers
that we sent.
And ye, in any wise
keep
yourselves from the accursed thing,
lest ye make yourselves accursed,
when ye take
of the accursed thing,
and make
the camp
of Israel
a curse,
and trouble
it.

But all the silver,
and gold,
and vessels
of brass
and iron,
are consecrated
unto the LORD:
they shall come
into the treasury
of the LORD.
So the people
shouted
when the priests blew
with the trumpets:
and it came to pass, when the people
heard
the sound
of the trumpet,
and the people
shouted
with a great
shout,
that the wall
fell down flat,
so that the people
went up
into the city,
every man
straight before him, and they took
the city.
shouting

And they utterly destroyed
all that was in the city,
both man
and woman,
young
and old,
and ox,
and sheep,
and ass,
with the edge
of the sword.
But Joshua
had said
unto the two
men
that had spied out
the country,
Go
into the harlot's
house,
and bring out
thence the woman,
and all that she hath, as ye sware
unto her.
say
And the young men
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 Israel.
And they burnt
the city
with fire,
and all that was therein: only the silver,
and the gold,
and the vessels
of brass
and of iron,
they put
into the treasury
of the house
of the LORD.

And Joshua
saved
Rahab
the harlot
alive,
and her father's
household,
and all that she had; and she dwelleth
in
Israel
even unto this day;
because she hid
the messengers,
which Joshua
sent
to spy out
Jericho.
And Joshua
adjured
them at that time,
saying,
Cursed
be the man
before
the LORD,
that riseth up
and buildeth
this city
Jericho:
he shall lay the foundation
thereof in his firstborn,
and in his youngest
son shall he set up
the gates
of it.

So the LORD
was with Joshua;
and his fame
was noised throughout all the country.
