If it would be helpful to your readers, you could combine 3:3 and 3:4 into a verse bridge so that the reason why Joshua wants the Israelites to follow the ark will precede the instructions he gives them to do that. The quotation from Joshua might then read something like this: “Since you have not passed over by the way from yesterday or the third day, so that you will know the way in which you should go, as you see the Box of the Covenant of Yahweh your God and the priests, the Levites, lifting it, then you yourselves shall set out from your place and go after it.”
3:3 The Ark of the Covenant of the Lord was God’s dwelling place among the Israelites and symbolized his throne. Whenever Israel moved, a contingent of priests carried the Ark before them (Exod 25:13-15; Num 10:33-36).
