Chapter 6
Now
Jericho
was
straitly
shut
up
because
of
the
children
of
Israel:
none
went
out,
and
none
came
in.
2
And
the
Lord
said
unto
Joshua,
See,
I
have
given
into
thine
hand
Jericho,
and
the
king
thereof,
and
the
mighty
men
of
valour.
3
And
ye
shall
compass
the
city,
all
ye
men
of
war,
and
go
round
about
the
city
once.
Thus
shalt
thou
do
six
days.
4
And
seven
priests
shall
bear
before
the
ark
seven
trumpets
of
rams’
horns:
and
the
seventh
day
ye
shall
compass
the
city
seven
times,
and
the
priests
shall
blow
with
the
trumpets.
5
And
it
shall
come
to
pass,
that
when
they
make
a
long
blast
with
the
ram’s
horn,
and
when
ye
hear
the
sound
of
the
trumpet,
all
the
people
shall
shout
with
a
great
shout;
and
the
wall
of
the
city
shall
fall
down
flat,
and
the
people
shall
ascend
up
every
man
straight
before
him.
6
And
Joshua
the
son
of
Nun
called
the
priests,
and
said
unto
them,
Take
up
the
ark
of
the
covenant,
and
let
seven
priests
bear
seven
trumpets
of
rams’
horns
before
the
ark
of
the
Lord.
7
And
he
said
unto
the
people,
Pass
on,
and
compass
the
city,
and
let
him
that
is
armed
pass
on
before
the
ark
of
the
Lord.
8
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
Joshua
had
spoken
unto
the
people,
that
the
seven
priests
bearing
the
seven
trumpets
of
rams’
horns
passed
on
before
the
Lord,
and
blew
with
the
trumpets:
and
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
Lord
followed
them.
9
And
the
armed
men
went
before
the
priests
that
blew
with
the
trumpets,
and
the
rereward
came
after
the
ark,
the
priests
going
on,
and
blowing
with
the
trumpets.
10
And
Joshua
had
commanded
the
people,
saying,
Ye
shall
not
shout,
nor
make
any
noise
with
your
voice,
neither
shall
any
word
proceed
out
of
your
mouth,
until
the
day
I
bid
you
shout;
then
shall
ye
shout.
11
So
the
ark
of
the
Lord
compassed
the
city,
going
about
it
once:
and
they
came
into
the
camp,
and
lodged
in
the
camp.
12
And
Joshua
rose
early
in
the
morning,
and
the
priests
took
up
the
ark
of
the
Lord.
13
And
seven
priests
bearing
seven
trumpets
of
rams’
horns
before
the
ark
of
the
Lord
went
on
continually,
and
blew
with
the
trumpets:
and
the
armed
men
went
before
them;
but
the
rereward
came
after
the
ark
of
the
Lord,
the
priests
going
on,
and
blowing
with
the
trumpets.
14
And
the
second
day
they
compassed
the
city
once,
and
returned
into
the
camp:
so
they
did
six
days.
15
And
it
came
to
pass
on
the
seventh
day,
that
they
rose
early
about
the
dawning
of
the
day,
and
compassed
the
city
after
the
same
manner
seven
times:
only
on
that
day
they
compassed
the
city
seven
times.
16
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
seventh
time,
when
the
priests
blew
with
the
trumpets,
Joshua
said
unto
the
people,
Shout;
for
the
Lord
hath
given
you
the
city.
17
And
the
city
shall
be
accursed,
even
it,
and
all
that
are
therein,
to
the
Lord:
only
Rahab
the
harlot
shall
live,
she
and
all
that
are
with
her
in
the
house,
because
she
hid
the
messengers
that
we
sent.
18
And
ye,
in
any
wise
keep
yourselves
from
the
accursed
thing,
lest
ye
make
yourselves
accursed,
when
ye
take
of
the
accursed
thing,
and
make
the
camp
of
Israel
a
curse,
and
trouble
it.
19
But
all
the
silver,
and
gold,
and
vessels
of
brass
and
iron,
are
consecrated
unto
the
Lord:
they
shall
come
into
the
treasury
of
the
Lord.
20
So
the
people
shouted
when
the
priests
blew
with
the
trumpets:
and
it
came
to
pass,
when
the
people
heard
the
sound
of
the
trumpet,
and
the
people
shouted
with
a
great
shout,
that
the
wall
fell
down
flat,
so
that
the
people
went
up
into
the
city,
every
man
straight
before
him,
and
they
took
the
city.
21
And
they
utterly
destroyed
all
that
was
in
the
city,
both
man
and
woman,
young
and
old,
and
ox,
and
sheep,
and
ass,
with
the
edge
of
the
sword.
22
But
Joshua
had
said
unto
the
two
men
that
had
spied
out
the
country,
Go
into
the
harlot’s
house,
and
bring
out
thence
the
woman,
and
all
that
she
hath,
as
ye
sware
unto
her.
23
And
the
young
men
that
were
spies
went
in,
and
brought
out
Rahab,
and
her
father,
and
her
mother,
and
her
brethren,
and
all
that
she
had;
and
they
brought
out
all
her
kindred,
and
left
them
without
the
camp
of
Israel.
24
And
they
burnt
the
city
with
fire,
and
all
that
was
therein:
only
the
silver,
and
the
gold,
and
the
vessels
of
brass
and
of
iron,
they
put
into
the
treasury
of
the
house
of
the
Lord.
25
And
Joshua
saved
Rahab
the
harlot
alive,
and
her
father’s
household,
and
all
that
she
had;
and
she
dwelleth
in
Israel
even
unto
this
day;
because
she
hid
the
messengers,
which
Joshua
sent
to
spy
out
Jericho.
26
And
Joshua
adjured
them
at
that
time,
saying,
Cursed
be
the
man
before
the
Lord,
that
riseth
up
and
buildeth
this
city
Jericho:
he
shall
lay
the
foundation
thereof
in
his
firstborn,
and
in
his
youngest
son
shall
he
set
up
the
gates
of
it.
27
So
the
Lord
was
with
Joshua;
and
his
fame
was
noised
throughout
all
the
country.
