1. And Jericho was closed, and was shut in from the face of the sons of Israel; no one going out, and no one coming in.
|
1. Now Jericho H3405 was straitly shut up H5462 H5462 because H4480 H6440 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 : none H369 went out H3318 , and none H369 came in H935 .
|
|
2. And Jehovah said to Joshua, See I have given Jericho and its king, mighty warriors, into your hand.
|
2. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Joshua H3091 , See H7200 , I have given H5414 into thine hand H3027 H853 Jericho H3405 , and the king H4428 thereof, and the mighty H1368 men of valor H2428 .
|
|
3. And you shall go around the city, all the men of battle, going around the city once; so you shall do six days.
|
3. And ye shall compass H5437 H853 the city H5892 , all H3605 ye men H376 of war H4421 , and go round about H5362 H853 the city H5892 once H259 H6471 . Thus H3541 shalt thou do H6213 six H8337 days H3117 .
|
|
4. And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark. And on the seventh day you shall go around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the rams' horns.
|
4. And seven H7651 priests H3548 shall bear H5375 before H6440 the ark H727 seven H7651 trumpets H7782 of rams' horns H3104 : and the seventh H7637 day H3117 ye shall compass H5437 H853 the city H5892 seven H7651 times H6471 , and the priests H3548 shall blow H8628 with the trumpets H7782 .
|
|
5. And it shall be, when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the ram's horn, all the people shall shout with a great shout. And the wall of the city shall fall down flat; and the people shall go up, each man in front of him.
|
5. And it shall come to pass H1961 , that when they make a long blast H4900 with the ram H3104 's horn H7161 , and when ye hear H8085 H853 the sound H6963 of the trumpet H7782 , all H3605 the people H5971 shall shout H7321 with a great H1419 shout H8643 ; and the wall H2346 of the city H5892 shall fall down H5307 flat H8478 , and the people H5971 shall ascend up H5927 every man H376 straight before H5048 him.
|
|
6. And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Jehovah.
|
6. And Joshua H3091 the son H1121 of Nun H5126 called H7121 H413 the priests H3548 , and said H559 unto H413 them , Take up H5375 H853 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 , and let H5375 seven H7651 priests H3548 bear H5375 seven H7651 trumpets H7782 of rams' horns H3104 before H6440 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
7. And he said to the people, Pass on, go around the city, and he who is armed shall go on before the ark of Jehovah.
|
7. And he said H559 unto H413 the people H5971 , Pass on H5674 , and compass H5437 H853 the city H5892 , and let him that is armed H2502 pass on H5674 before H6440 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
8. And it happened, when Joshua spoke to the people, the seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before Jehovah passed on and blew with the rams' horns. And the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went after them.
|
8. And it came to pass H1961 , when Joshua H3091 had spoken H559 unto H413 the people H5971 , that the seven H7651 priests H3548 bearing H5375 the seven H7651 trumpets H7782 of rams' horns H3104 passed on H5674 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , and blew H8628 with the trumpets H7782 : and the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 followed H1980 H310 them.
|
|
9. And he who was armed went before the priests blowing the rams' horns. And the rear guard after the ark, going on and blowing with the rams' horns.
|
9. And the armed men H2502 went H1980 before H6440 the priests H3548 that blew H8628 with the trumpets H7782 , and the rearward H622 came H1980 after H310 the ark H727 , the priests going on H1980 , and blowing H8628 with the trumpets H7782 .
|
|
10. And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, You shall not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor shall there go from your mouth a word until the day I say to you, Shout! Then you shall shout.
|
10. And Joshua H3091 had commanded H6680 the people H5971 , saying H559 , Ye shall not H3808 shout H7321 , nor H3808 make any noise H8085 with H854 your voice H6963 , neither H3808 shall any word H1697 proceed out H3318 of your mouth H4480 H6310 , until H5704 the day H3117 I bid H559 you shout H7321 ; then shall ye shout H7321 .
|
|
11. And the ark of Jehovah went around the city, going around one time. And they came into the camp, and remained in the camp.
|
11. So the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 compassed H5437 H853 the city H5892 , going about H5362 it once H259 H6471 : and they came H935 into the camp H4264 , and lodged H3885 in the camp H4264 .
|
|
12. And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests bore the ark of Jehovah.
|
12. And Joshua H3091 rose early H7925 in the morning H1242 , and the priests H3548 took up H5375 H853 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
13. And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns were walking before the ark of Jehovah, going on, and were blowing with the rams' horns. And he who was armed went before them. And the rear guard went behind the ark of Jehovah, going on and blowing with the rams' horns.
|
13. And seven H7651 priests H3548 bearing H5375 seven H7651 trumpets H7782 of rams' horns H3104 before H6440 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 went on continually H1980 H1980 , and blew H8628 with the trumpets H7782 : and the armed men H2502 went H1980 before H6440 them ; but the rearward H622 came H1980 after H310 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 , the priests going on H1980 , and blowing H8628 with the trumpets H7782 .
|
|
14. And they circled the city on the second day one time, and returned to the camp. So they did six days.
|
14. And the second H8145 day H3117 they compassed H5437 H853 the city H5892 once H259 H6471 , and returned H7725 into the camp H4264 : so H3541 they did H6213 six H8337 days H3117 .
|
|
15. And it happened on the seventh day, they rose early, at the dawning of the day, and went around the city seven times in the same way. Only on that day they circled the city seven times.
|
15. And it came to pass H1961 on the seventh H7637 day H3117 , that they rose early H7925 about the dawning H5927 of the day H7837 , and compassed H5437 H853 the city H5892 after the same H2088 manner H4941 seven H7651 times H6471 : only H7535 on that H2088 day H3117 they compassed H5437 H853 the city H5892 seven H7651 times H6471 .
|
|
16. And it happened at the seventh time the priests blew with the rams' horns. And Joshua said to the people, Shout! For Jehovah has given you the city.
|
16. And it came to pass H1961 at the seventh H7637 time H6471 , when the priests H3548 blew H8628 with the trumpets H7782 , Joshua H3091 said H559 unto H413 the people H5971 , Shout H7321 ; for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath given H5414 you H853 the city H5892 .
|
|
17. And the city shall be devoted to Jehovah, it and all that are in it. Only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
|
17. And the city H5892 shall be H1961 accursed H2764 , even it H1931 , and all H3605 that H834 are therein , to the LORD H3068 : only H7535 Rahab H7343 the harlot H2181 shall live H2421 , she H1931 and all H3605 that H834 are with H854 her in the house H1004 , because H3588 she hid H2244 H853 the messengers H4397 that H834 we sent H7971 .
|
|
18. And you shall certainly keep clear of the devoted things, that you not become accursed by taking from the devoted things, and shall make the camp of Israel become accursed, and trouble it.
|
18. And ye H859 , in any wise H7357 keep H8104 yourselves from H4480 the accursed thing H2764 , lest H6435 ye make yourselves accursed H2763 , when ye take H3947 of H4480 the accursed thing H2764 , and make H7760 H853 the camp H4264 of Israel H3478 a curse H2764 , and trouble H5916 it.
|
|
19. And all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, they are holy to Jehovah; they shall come into the treasury of Jehovah.
|
19. But all H3605 the silver H3701 , and gold H2091 , and vessels H3627 of brass H5178 and iron H1270 , are consecrated H6944 unto the LORD H3068 : they shall come H935 into the treasury H214 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
20. And the people shouted, and blew with the ram's horns, and it happened, when the people heard the sound of the ram's horn, the people shouted a great shout. And the wall fell under it; and the people went up into the city, each man in front of him; and they captured the city.
|
20. So the people H5971 shouted H7321 when the priests blew H8628 with the trumpets H7782 : and it came to pass H1961 , when the people H5971 heard H8085 H853 the sound H6963 of the trumpet H7782 , and the people H5971 shouted H7321 with a great H1419 shout H8643 , that the wall H2346 fell down H5307 flat H8478 , so that the people H5971 went up H5927 into the city H5892 , every man H376 straight before H5048 him , and they took H3920 H853 the city H5892 .
|
|
21. And they destroyed all that was in the city, from man even to woman, from young even to aged, and to ox, and sheep, and ass, by the mouth of the sword.
|
21. And they utterly destroyed H2763 H853 all H3605 that H834 was in the city H5892 , both man H4480 H376 and woman H802 , young H4480 H5288 and old H2205 , and ox H7794 , and sheep H7716 , and ass H2543 , with the edge H6310 of the sword H2719 .
|
|
22. And Joshua said to the two men who had spied out the land, Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring the woman out from there, and all whom she has, as you have sworn to her.
|
22. But Joshua H3091 had said H559 unto the two H8147 men H376 that had spied out H7270 H853 the country H776 , Go into H935 the harlot H802 H2181 's house H1004 , and bring out H3318 thence H4480 H8033 H853 the woman H802 , and all H3605 that H834 she hath, as H834 ye swore H7650 unto her.
|
|
23. And the young men, the spies, went in and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all whom she had; yea, they brought all her family, and set them outside the camp of Israel.
|
23. And the young men H5288 that were spies H7270 went in H935 , and brought out H3318 H853 Rahab H7343 , and her father H1 , and her mother H517 , and her brethren H251 , and all H3605 that H834 she had ; and they brought out H3318 all H3605 her kindred H4940 , and left H5117 them without H4480 H2351 the camp H4264 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
24. And they burned the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they gave the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze, and of iron, to the treasury of the house of Jehovah.
|
24. And they burnt H8313 the city H5892 with fire H784 , and all H3605 that H834 was therein: only H7535 the silver H3701 , and the gold H2091 , and the vessels H3627 of brass H5178 and of iron H1270 , they put H5414 into the treasury H214 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
25. And Joshua kept alive Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she had. And she lives in the midst of Israel to this day. For she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
|
25. And Joshua H3091 saved H2421 Rahab H7343 the harlot H2181 alive , and her father H1 's household H1004 , and all H3605 that H834 she had ; and she dwelleth H3427 in H7130 Israel H3478 even unto H5704 this H2088 day H3117 ; because H3588 she hid H2244 H853 the messengers H4397 , which H834 Joshua H3091 sent H7971 to spy out H7270 H853 Jericho H3405 .
|
|
26. And at that time Joshua adjured, saying, Cursed be the man who rises up before the face of Jehovah and builds this city of Jericho. He shall lay its foundation in his first-born, and he shall set up its doors in his youngest son.
|
26. And Joshua H3091 adjured H7650 them at that H1931 time H6256 , saying H559 , Cursed H779 be the man H376 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , that H834 riseth up H6965 and buildeth H1129 H853 this H2063 city H5892 H853 Jericho H3405 : he shall lay the foundation H3245 thereof in his firstborn H1060 , and in his youngest H6810 son shall he set up H5324 the gates H1817 of it.
|
|
27. And Jehovah was with Joshua, and his fame was in all the land.
|
27. So the LORD H3068 was H1961 with H854 Joshua H3091 ; and his fame H8089 was H1961 noised throughout all H3605 the country H776 .
