Marching round Jericho
Now Jericho was shut up tight because of the Israelites. Nobody went out and nobody came in. The Lord said to Joshua: See, I've given Jericho into your hand, along with its king and its mighty fighting men. And you'll go around the city, all you fighting men, and go around the city once. That's what you'll do for six days. And seven priests will carry seven trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark. And on the seventh day you'll go around the city seven times, and the priests will blow the trumpets. when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people will shout with a great shout. And the wall of the city will fall down flat, and the people will go up, every man straight ahead. Joshua son of Nun called the priests and said to them: Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests carry seven trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark of the Lord. he said to the people: Go over and go around the city, and let the armed men go over in front of the ark of the Lord. when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests carrying the seven trumpets of rams' horns went over before the Lord and blew the trumpets. And the ark of the covenant of the Lord went after them. the armed men went in front of the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, going on and blowing the trumpets. Joshua had told the people: You won't shout or make any noise with your voice, and no word will come out of your mouth, till the day I tell you to shout. Then you'll shout. So the ark of the Lord went around the city, going round it once. And they came into the camp and stayed the night in the camp. Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. And seven priests carrying seven trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark of the Lord went on and blew the trumpets. And the armed men went before them, and the rear guard came after the ark of the Lord, going on and blowing the trumpets. on the second day they went around the city once and returned into the camp. That's what they did for six days.
Now Jericho was shut up tight because of the people of Israel. Nobody went out and nobody came in. And the Lord said to Joshua: Look — I've handed Jericho over into your hand, and its king and the strong fighting men. And you'll go round the town, all you fighting men, and go round the town once. That's what you'll do for six days. And seven priests will carry seven trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark. And on the seventh day you'll go round the town seven times, and the priests will blow the trumpets. And when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people will shout with a great shout. And the wall of the town will fall down flat, and the people will go up, every man straight ahead. And Joshua son of Nun called the priests and said to them: Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests carry seven trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark of the Lord. And he said to the people: Go over and go round the town, and let the armed men go over in front of the ark of the Lord. And when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests carrying the seven trumpets of rams' horns went over in front of the Lord and blew the trumpets. And the ark of the covenant of the Lord went after them. And the armed men went in front of the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, going on and blowing the trumpets. And Joshua had ordered the people: You won't shout or make any noise with your voice, and no word will come out of your mouth, till the day I tell you to shout. Then you'll shout. So the ark of the Lord went round the town, going round it once. And they came into the camp and stayed the night in the camp. And Joshua got up early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord. And seven priests carrying seven trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark of the Lord went on and blew the trumpets. And the armed men went in front of them, and the rear guard came after the ark of the Lord, going on and blowing the trumpets. And on the second day they went round the town once and came back into the camp. That's what they did for six days.
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. 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.

The wall falls
on the seventh day they rose early, at the break of day, and went around the city the same way seven times. Only on that day they went around the city seven times. the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people: Shout, because the Lord has given you the city. the city will be set apart for the Lord, it and everything in it. Only Rahab the prostitute will live, she and everyone in the house with her, because she hid the messengers we sent. But keep well away from the things devoted to destruction. If you take any of them, you'll bring destruction on yourselves and trouble on the camp of Israel. But all the silver and gold and the vessels of bronze and iron are holy to the Lord. They'll come into the treasury of the Lord. So the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets. As soon as the people heard the trumpet sound and gave a great shout, the wall fell down flat. The people went straight into the city, each man ahead of him, and they took it. They completely destroyed everything in the city with the sword: men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys. Joshua said to the two men who had scouted the country: Go into the prostitute's house and bring the woman out, along with everyone belonging to her, just as you swore to her. the young men who were spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brothers and everything she had. And they brought out all her relatives and left them outside the camp of Israel. they burnt the city with fire, and everything in it. Only the silver and the gold and the vessels of bronze and iron they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord. But Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute, her father's household and everyone belonging to her. Her family has lived among Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers Joshua sent to scout Jericho. Joshua made them swear at that time: Cursed is the man before the Lord who sets out and builds this city Jericho. He'll lay its foundation at the cost of his firstborn, and set up its gates at the cost of his youngest son. So the Lord was with Joshua, and word about him went out through all the country.
And on the seventh day they got up early, at the break of day, and went round the town the same way seven times. Only on that day they went round the town seven times. And the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people: Shout, because the Lord has given you the town. And the town will be set apart for the Lord, it and everything in it. Only Rahab the prostitute will live, she and everyone in the house with her, because she hid the messengers we sent. And you — just keep away from what's set apart, or you'll make yourselves marked for wrecking when you take of it, and make the camp of Israel a curse and bring trouble on it. But all the silver and gold and the vessels of bronze and iron are holy to the Lord. They'll come into the treasury of the Lord. So the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets. And when the people heard the sound of the trumpet and the people shouted with a great shout, the wall fell down flat, so the people went up into the town, every man straight ahead, and they took the town. And they completely wrecked everything in the town, both man and woman, young and old, and ox and sheep and donkey, with the edge of the sword. But Joshua had said to the two men who'd spied out the country: Go into the prostitute's house and bring the woman out from there, and everything she's got, the way you swore to her. And the young men who were spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brothers and everything she had. And they brought out all her relatives and left them outside the camp of Israel. And they burnt the town with fire, and everything in it. Only the silver and the gold and the vessels of bronze and iron they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord. And Joshua kept Rahab the prostitute alive, and her father's household and everything she had. And she lives in Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

He'll lay its foundation at the cost of his firstborn, and set up its gates at the cost of his youngest son. So the Lord was with Joshua, and word about him went out through all the country.
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. 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. 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.
