1And when all the people finished crossing the Jordan, LORD JEHOVAH said to Yeshua: 2“Take for yourselves from the people twelve men, one man from each tribe 3And command them and say to them: ‘Take for yourselves from here from within the Jordan, provide twelve stones from under the feet of the Priests and bring them with you and put them among the lodging where you lodge in the night’” 4And Yeshua called twelve men, those who were provided from the children of Israel, one man from each tribe 5And Yeshua said to them: “Pass before the ark of LORD JEHOVAH your God within the Jordan and set each man his stone on his shoulder by the number of the tribes of the children of Israel 6Because this will be a sign among you, that when your children of tomorrow will ask you and they will say to you: ‘What are these stones?’ 7Say to them: “The waters of Jordan were divided from before the ark of the covenant of LORD JEHOVAH when we crossed in the Jordan. The waters of Jordan were split and these stones are a memorial to the children of Israel for eternity”

8And so the children of Israel did as Yeshua commanded them, and they picked up twelve stones from within the Jordan, according to what LORD JEHOVAH said to Yeshua, by the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and they brought them with them to the house of lodging and they left them there 9Twelve stones they set up which they took from within the Jordan, from under the feet of the Priests who carried the ark of the covenant, and they are there until today 10And the Priests who were carrying the ark were standing within the Jordan until all the words were finished that LORD JEHOVAH had commanded Yeshua to speak to the people, just as Moshe had commanded Yeshua; and the people hurried and they crossed over 11And when all the people had fully passed over and the ark of LORD JEHOVAH crossed over, and the Priests before the people 12And the children of Rubil crossed over and the children of Gad and the half of the tribe of Menasheh, while they were armed before the children of Israel, just as Moshe said to them 13Forty thousand as they were armed in power crossed over before LORD JEHOVAH for battle in the plain of Yerikho

14In that day LORD JEHOVAH exalted Yeshua in the eyes of all Israel, and they were in awe of him just as they were in awe of Moshe all the days of his life

15And LORD JEHOVAH said to Yeshua: 16“Command the Priests who bear the ark of the testimony and they shall offer up from within the Jordan.” 17And Yeshua commanded the Priests and he said to them: “Come up from within the Jordan!” 18And when the Priests who carried the ark of the covenant of LORD JEHOVAH came up from within the Jordan, the sole of the feet of the Priests were set on dry land and the waters of Jordan returned to their place, and they ran like the former time over all the banks of the Jordan

19And the people came up from within the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and they camped in Galgala on the borders of the east of Yerikho 20And they took twelve stones from within the Jordan; Yeshua set them in Galgala 21And he said to the children of Israel: “When your children of tomorrow will ask you and they will say to you, ‘What are these stones?’ 22Show them to your children and say to them: “On dry land the children of Israel crossed over this Jordan 23And LORD JEHOVAH their God dried up the waters of Jordan from before them until they crossed, as LORD JEHOVAH your God did to the Sea of Reeds which he dried up from before us until we crossed 24That all the nations of the Earth would know the hand of LORD JEHOVAH which is mighty, and you shall worship LORD JEHOVAH your God for all days.”
