¹ Now when all the nation had come to the other side of Jordan, the Lord said to Joshua,

² And on the day when you go over Jordan into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, put up great stones, coating them with building-paste,

¹⁷ And the priests who took up the ark of the agreement of the Lord kept their places, with their feet on dry land in the middle of Jordan, while all Israel went over on dry land, till all the nation had gone over Jordan.
