3 and_ Yəhōshūˊa _he _rose _early in_morning and_they _set _out from_(the)_Shiţţīm and_they _came to the_Yardēn/(Jordan) he and_all the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) and_they _stayed there before they _passed _over.

2 And_he/it _was from_the_end _of three _of days and_they _passed the_officers in_the _midst _of the _camp.

3 And_they _commanded DOM the_people to_say just_as_you(pl)_see DOM the _box _of the _covenant _of YHWH god _of_your(pl) and_the_priests the_Lēviyyiy carrying DOM_him/it and_you(pl) you(pl)_will _set _out from_place _of_your(pl) and_you(pl)_will _go behind_it.

4 Nevertheless a _distance it _will _be between_you(pl) and_between_it[fn] about_two _thousand cubit[s] by_measurement do _not draw _near to_him/it so _that that you(pl)_may _know DOM the_way which you(pl)_will _go in_it if/because not you(pl)_have _passed in_way from_yesterday three _days _ago.

5 and_ Yəhōshūˊa/(Joshua) _he/it _said to the_people consecrate _yourselves if/because tomorrow YHWH he _will _do in_midst _of_your(pl) wonders.

6 And_ Yəhōshūˊa _he/it _said to the_priests to_say lift _up DOM the _box _of the _covenant and_pass _over to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_people and_they _lifted _up DOM the _box _of the _covenant and_they _went to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_people.

7 and_ YHWH _he/it _said to Yəhōshūˊa the_day the_this I _will _begin to_make _you _great in/on_both _eyes _of all _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) that they_will _know if/because _that just_as I _was with Mosheh I _will _be with_you.

8 And_you(ms) you _will _command DOM the_priests who_carry _of (of)_the _box _of the _covenant to_say just_as_you(pl)_come to the _edge _of the _waters _of the _Yardēn/(Jordan) in_Yardēn you(pl)_will _stand _still.

9 and_ Yəhōshūˊa _he/it _said to the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) draw _near hither and_hear DOM the _words/messages _of YHWH god _of_your(pl).

10 And_ Yəhōshūˊa _he/it _said by_this you(pl)_will _know if/because _that god living is_in_midst _of_your(pl) and_completely _(dispossess) he _will _dispossess from_before _of_you(pl) DOM the_Kənaˊₐnī and_DOM the_Ḩittiy[s] and_DOM the_Ḩiūī and_DOM the_Pərizzī[s] and_DOM the_Girgāshiy and_the_ʼAmorī[s] and_the_Yəⱱūşī/(Jebusite)[s].

11 HERE the _box _of the _covenant the _master _of all _of the_earth/land is_about _to _pass _on before_you(pl) in_Yardēn.

12 And_now take to/for_you(pl) two _plus _of ten man from_the _tribes _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) a _man one a _man one to_tribe.

13 And_it _was just_as _rest the _soles _of the _feet _of the _priests who_carry _of (of)_the _box _of YHWH the _master _of all _of the_earth/land in_the _waters _of the _Yardēn the _waters _of the _Yardēn they_will _be _cut _off the_waters which_are_coming _down from_to_above and_they _will _stand a _heap one.

14 And_he/it _was when_set _out the_people from_tents _of_their to_pass _over DOM the_Yardēn/(Jordan) and_the_priests who_carry _of (of)_the_box the_covenant to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_people.

15 And_just_as _came those _who_carry _of (of)_the_box to the_Yardēn and_the _feet _of the _priests who_carry _of (of)_the_box they _were _dipped in_the _edge _of the_waters and_the_Yardēn it _is _full over all _of banks _of_its all _of the_days _of harvest.

16 And_they _stood the_waters which_came_down from_to_above they _rose a _heap one far _away very from_ʼĀdām[fn] the_city which is_from_the _side _of Tsₑrətān/(Zarethan) and_those_which_went _down to the _sea _of the _ˊArāⱱāh the _Sea _of (the)_Salt they _were _complete they _were _cut _off and_the_people they _passed _over before Yərīḩō/(Jericho).

17 And_they _stood the_priests who_carry _of (of)_the_box the _covenant _of YHWH on_ground in _the_middle of_the _Yardēn firmly and_all Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) were_passing _over on_ground until that they _had _finished all _of the_nation to_pass _over DOM the_Yardēn.
