But the children
of Israel
committed
a trespass
in the accursed thing:
for Achan,
the son
of Carmi,
the son
of Zabdi,
the son
of Zerah,
of the tribe
of Judah,
took
of the accursed thing:
and the anger
of the LORD
was kindled
against the children
of Israel.

And they returned
to Joshua,
and said
unto him, Let not all the people
go up;
but let about two or three

go up
and smite

and make not all the people

And the men

O
Lord,
what shall I say,
when
Israel
turneth
their backs
before
their enemies!
For the Canaanites
and all the inhabitants
of the land
shall hear
of it, and shall environ us round,
and cut off

And the LORD
said
unto Joshua,
Get thee up;
wherefore liest
thou thus upon thy face?
Israel
hath sinned,
and they have also transgressed
my covenant
which I commanded
them: for they have even taken
of the accursed thing,
and have also stolen,
and dissembled
also, and they have put
it even among their own stuff.
Therefore the children
of Israel
could
not stand
before
their enemies,
but turned
their backs
before
their enemies,
because they were accursed:
neither will I be with you any more,
except
ye destroy
the accursed
from among
you.

for thus saith
the LORD
God
of Israel,
There is an accursed thing
in the midst
of thee, O Israel:
thou canst
not stand
before
thine enemies,
until ye take away
the accursed thing
from among
you.
say
In the morning
therefore ye shall be brought
according to your tribes:
and it shall be, that the tribe
which the LORD
taketh
shall come
according to the families
thereof; and the family
which the LORD
shall take
shall come
by households;
and the household
which the LORD
shall take
shall come
man
by man.
And it shall be, that he that is taken
with the accursed thing
shall be burnt
with fire,
he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressed
the covenant
of the LORD,
and because he hath wrought
folly
in Israel.

So Joshua
rose up early
in the morning,
and brought
Israel
by their tribes;
and the tribe
of Judah
was taken:
And he brought
the family
of Judah;
and he took
the family
of the Zarhites:
and he brought
the family

and Zabdi
was taken:
And he brought
his household

and Achan,
the son
of Carmi,
the son
of Zabdi,
the son
of Zerah,
of the tribe
of Judah,
was taken.

And Achan
answered
Joshua,
and said,
Indeed
I have sinned
against the LORD
God
of Israel,
and thus and thus have I done:
When I saw
among the spoils
a
goodly
Babylonish
garment,
and two hundred
shekels
of silver,
and a
wedge
of gold
of fifty
shekels
weight,
then I coveted
them, and took
them; and, behold, they are hid
in the earth
in the midst
of my tent,
and the silver
under it.

So Joshua
sent
messengers,

and, behold, it was hid
in his tent,
and the silver
under it.
And they took
them out of the midst
of the tent,
and brought
them unto Joshua,
and unto all the children
of Israel,
and laid them out
before
the LORD.
And Joshua,
and all Israel
with him, took
Achan
the son
of Zerah,
and the silver,
and the garment,
and the wedge
of gold,
and his sons,
and his daughters,
and his oxen,
and his asses,
and his sheep,
and his tent,
and all that he had: and they brought
them unto the valley
of Achor.
