18 Then he had Zabdi's household come forward man by man, and Achan was selected. Achan from the tribe of Judah was the son of Carmi, grandson of Zabdi, and great-grandson of Zerah.

19 Joshua said to Achan, |Son, give honor and praise to the LORD God of Israel! Tell me what you have done. Don't hide anything from me.|

20 Then Achan answered Joshua, |It's true. I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel. This is what I did:

21 I saw a fine robe from Babylonia, five pounds of silver, and a bar of gold weighing about one pound among the loot. I wanted them, so I took them. You will find them buried inside my tent with the silver beneath them.|
