1 And Jericho was shut up; and being shut up from before the sons of Israel, none will come out and none came in. 2 And Jehovah will say to Joshua, See, I gave into thy hand Jericho and her king, and the mighty ones of strength. 3 And encompass the city all ye men of war, and surround the city one time: so shalt thou do six days. 4 And seven priests shall lift up seven trumpets of alarms before the ark: and in the seventh day ye shall encompass the city seven times, and the priests shall clang the trumpets. 5 And it was in prolonging upon the horn of the jubilee in your hearing, the voice of the trumpet, and all the people shall shout a great shout: and the walls of the city shall fall under it, and the people went up each before him. 6 And Joshua son of Nun will call to the priests and say to them, Lift up the ark of the covenant, and seven priests shall lift up seven trumpets of signals before the ark of Jehovah. 7 And they will say to the people, Pass through and surround the city, and he being armed shall pass by before the ark of Jehovah.
