4: So went upH5927 fromH4480 the peopleH5971 thereH8033 about threeH7969 thousandH0505 men-H0376 but they fledH5127 beforeH6440 the menH0376 of Ai.H5857
5: And struck downH5221 likeH1992 the menH0582 of AiH5857 about thirtyH7970 and sixH8337 menH0376 for they chased themH7291 [from] beforeH6440 the gateH8179 as far asH5704 Shebarim,H7671 and struck them downH5221 on the descent,H4174 therefore melted,H4549 the heartsH3824 of the peopleH5971 and becameH1961 like water.H4325
6: And toreH7167 JoshuaH3091 his clothes,H8071 and fellH5307 onH5921 his faceH6440 to the earthH0776 beforeH6440 the arkH0727 of YahwehH3068 untilH5704 evening,H6153 heH1931 and the eldersH2205 of Israel,H3478 and they putH5927 dustH6083 onH5921 their heads.H7218
7: And said,H0559 JoshuaH3091 Alas,H0162 LordH0136 GOD,H3069 whyH4100 have You broughtH5674 at allH5674 -H0853 peopleH5971 thisH2088 -H0853 the over Jordan,H3383 to deliverH5414 usH0853 into the handH3027 of the Amorites,H0567 to destroy usH0006 and OhH3863 that we had been content,H2974 and dweltH3427 on the other sideH5676 of the Jordan!H3383
8: OH0994 Lord,H0136 whatH4100 shall I say,H0559 whenH0310 whenH0834 turnsH2015 IsraelH3478 its backH6203 beforeH6440 its enemies!H0341
9: for will hear [it]H8085 the CanaaniteH3669 and allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH0776 and surround,H5437 us,H5921 and cut offH3772 -H0853 our nameH8034 fromH4480 the earth.H0776 And whatH4100 will You doH6213 for Your name?H8034 great.H1419
10: So saidH0559 YahwehH3068 toH0413 Joshua,H3091 Get up-H6965 whyH4100 [is] thisH2088 youH0859 do lieH5307 onH5921 your face?H6440
11: has sinned,H2398 IsraelH3478 and alsoH1571 they have transgressedH5674 -H0853 My covenantH1285 whichH0834 I commandedH6680 themH0853 for evenH1571 they have takenH3947 someH4480 of the accursed things,H2764 and bothH1571 have stolen,H1589 and,H1571 deceivedH3584 and alsoH1571 they have put [it]H7760 among their own stuff.H3627
12: Therefore notH3808 couldH3201 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 standH6965 beforeH6440 their enemies,H0341 [their] backsH6203 [but] turnedH6437 beforeH6440 their enemies,H0341 becauseH3588 they have becomeH1961 doomed to destruction.H2764 NeitherH3808 anymore,H3254 will I beH1961 with youH5973 unlessH0518 not youH3808 you destroyH8045 the accursedH2764 from among you.H7130
13: Get up,H6965 sanctifyH6942 -H0853 the people,H5971 and say,H0559 Sanctify yourselvesH6942 for tomorrow,H4279 becauseH3588 thusH3541 saysH0559 YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel.H3478 [There is] an accursed thingH2764 in your midstH7130 Israel.H3478 NotH3808 you cannotH3201 standH6965 beforeH6440 your enemies,H0341 untilH5704 you take awayH5493 the accursed thingH2764 from among you.H7130
14: Therefore you shall be broughtH7126 in the morningH1242 according to your tribes.H7626 And it shall be [that],H1961 the tribeH7626 whichH0834 takesH3920 YahwehH3068 shall comeH7126 according to familiesH4940 and the familyH4940 whichH0834 takesH3920 YahwehH3068 shall comeH7126 by households-H1004 and the householdH1004 whichH0834 takesH3920 YahwehH3068 shall comeH7126 by man.H1397
15: And it shall be,H1961 [that] he who is takenH3920 with the accursed thingH2764 shall be burnedH8313 with fire,H0784 heH0853 andH0853 allH3605 thatH0834 becauseH3588 he has transgressedH5674 -H0853 the covenantH1285 of Yahweh,H3068 and becauseH3588 he has doneH6213 a disgraceful thingH5039 in Israel.H3478
16: So rose earlyH7925 JoshuaH3091 in the morning,H1242 and broughtH7126 -H0853 IsraelH3478 by their tribes-H7626 and was takenH3920 the tribeH7626 of Judah.H3063

19: and saidH0559 JoshuaH3091 toH0413 Achan,H5912 My son,H1121 give,H7760 I beg you,H4994 gloryH3519 to YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel,H3478 and makeH5414 confessionH8426 and tellH5046 nowH4994 whatH4100 you have done-H6213 notH0408 do hide [it]H3582 from me.H4480
20: And answeredH6030 AchanH5912 -H0853 Joshua,H3091 and said,H0559 indeedH0546 IH0595 have sinnedH2398 against YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel,H3478 and like thisH2063 and like thisH2063 have I done-H6213 when I sawH7200 among the spoilsH7998 cloak,H0155 of ShinarH8152 oneH0259 beautifulH2896 and two hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silver,H3701 and wedgeH3956 of goldH2091 oneH0259 fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 weighing,H4948 and I coveted themH2530 and took themH3947 and there they are,H2009 hiddenH2934 in the earthH0776 in the midstH8432 of my tent,H0168 and with the silverH3701 under it.H8478
22: So sentH7971 JoshuaH3091 messengers,H4397 and they ranH7323 to the tent-H0168 and there it was,H2009 hiddenH2934 in his tent,H0168 and with the silverH3701 under it.H8478
23: And they took themH3947 from the midstH8432 of the tent,H0168 and brought themH0935 toH0413 Joshua,H3091 and toH0413 allH3605 the sonsH1121 of Israel,H3478 and laid themH3332 out beforeH6440 Yahweh.H3068
24: And tookH3947 Joshua,H3091 -H0853 AchanH5912 sonH1121 of Zerah,H2226 andH0853 the silver,H3701 andH0853 the cloak,H0155 andH0853 the wedgeH3956 of gold,H2091 andH0853 his sons,H1121 andH0853 his daughters,H1323 andH0853 his oxen,H7794 andH0853 his donkeys,H2543 andH0853 his sheep,H6629 andH0853 his tent,H0168 andH0853 allH3605 thatH0834 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 with himH5973 and they broughtH5927 themH0853 to the ValleyH6010 of Achor.H5911
25: And said,H0559 JoshuaH3091 whyH4100 have you troubled usH5916 will you troubleH5916 YahwehH3068 day.H3117 ThisH2088 so stonedH7275 himH0853 allH3605 IsraelH3478 with stones,H0068 and they burnedH8313 themH0853 with fire,H0784 and after they had stonedH5619 themH0853 with stones.H0068
26: And they raisedH6965 over himH5921 a heapH1530 of stonesH0068 greatH1419 toH5704 day still there.H3117 ThisH2088 so turnedH7725 YahwehH3068 from the fiercenessH2740 of His anger.H0639 UponH5921 thusH3651 has been called,H7121 the nameH8034 of placeH4725 thatH1931 the ValleyH6010 of Achor,H5911 toH5704 dayH3117 this.H2088
