1 Bright and early the next morning Joshua and the Israelites left Shittim and came to the Jordan. They camped there before crossing the river. 2 After three days the leaders went through the camp 3 and commanded the people: |When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God being carried by the Levitical priests, you must leave here and walk behind it. 4 But stay about three thousand feet behind it. Keep your distance so you can see which way you should go, for you have not traveled this way before.| Joshua 3:1-4, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
