1 H1121 But the children H3478 of Israel H4603 committed H4604 a trespass H2764 in the devoted thing; H5912 for Achan, H1121 the son H3756 of Carmi, H1121 the son H2067 of Zabdi, H1121 the son H2226 of Zerah, H4294 of the tribe H3063 of Judah, H3947 took H2764 of the devoted thing: H639 and the anger H3068 of Jehovah H2734 was kindled H1121 against the children H3478 of Israel.

2 H3091 And Joshua H7971 sent H582 men H3405 from Jericho H5857 to Ai, H5973 which is beside H1007 Beth-aven, H6924 on the east side H1008 of Beth-el, H559 and spake H559 unto them, saying, H5927 Go up H7270 and spy H776 out the land. H582 And the men H5927 went up H7270 and spied H5857 out Ai.

3 H7725 And they returned H3091 to Joshua, H559 and said H5971 unto him, Let not all the people H5927 go up; H7969 but let about two or three H505 thousand H376 men H5927 go up H5221 and smite H5857 Ai; H5971 make not all the people H3021 to toil H4592 thither; for they are but few.

4 H5927 So there went up H5971 thither of the people H7969 about three H505 thousand H376 men: H5127 and they fled H6440 before H582 the men H5857 of Ai.

5 H582 And the men H5857 of Ai H5221 smote H7970 of them about thirty H8337 and six H376 men; H7291 and they chased H6440 them from before H8179 the gate H7671 even unto Shebarim, H5221 and smote H4174 them at the descent; H3824 and the hearts H5971 of the people H4549 melted, H4325 and became as water.

6 H3091 And Joshua H7167 rent H8071 his clothes, H5307 and fell H776 to the earth H6440 upon his face H6440 before H727 the ark H3068 of Jehovah H6153 until the evening, H2205 he and the elders H3478 of Israel; H5927 and they put H6083 dust H7218 upon their heads.

7 H3091 And Joshua H559 said, H162 Alas, O H136 Lord H3069 Jehovah, H5674 wherefore hast thou at all H5674 brought H5971 this people H5674 over H3383 the Jordan, H5414 to deliver H3027 us into the hand H567 of the Amorites, H6 to cause us to perish? H3863 would H2974 that we had been content H3427 and dwelt H5676 beyond H3383 the Jordan!

8 H994 Oh, H136 Lord, H559 what shall I say, H310 after that H3478 Israel H2015 hath turned H6203 their backs H6440 before H341 their enemies!

9 H3669 For the Canaanites H3427 and all the inhabitants H776 of the land H8085 will hear H5437 of it, and will compass us round, H3772 and cut off H8034 our name H776 from the earth: H6213 and what wilt thou do H1419 for thy great H8034 name?

10 H3068 And Jehovah H559 said H3091 unto Joshua, H6965 Get thee up; H5307 wherefore art thou thus fallen H6440 upon thy face?

11 H3478 Israel H2398 hath sinned; H5674 yea, they have even transgressed H1285 my covenant H6680 which I commanded H3947 them: yea, they have even taken H2764 of the devoted thing, H1589 and have also stolen, H3584 and dissembled H7760 also; and they have even put H3627 it among their own stuff.

12 H1121 Therefore the children H3478 of Israel H3201 cannot H6965 stand H6440 before H341 their enemies; H6437 they turn H6203 their backs H6440 before H341 their enemies, H2764 because they are become accursed: H3254 I will not be with you any more, H3808 except H8045 ye destroy H2764 the devoted H7130 thing from among you.

13 H6965 Up, H6942 sanctify H5971 the people, H559 and say, H6942 Sanctify H4279 yourselves against to-morrow: H559 for thus saith H3068 Jehovah, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H2764 There is a devoted thing H7130 in the midst H3478 of thee, O Israel; H3201 thou canst H6965 not stand H6440 before H341 thine enemies, H5493 until ye take away H2764 the devoted thing H7130 from among you.

14 H1242 In the morning H7126 therefore ye shall be brought H7626 near by your tribes: H7626 and it shall be, that the tribe H3068 which Jehovah H3920 taketh H7126 shall come H4940 near by families; H4940 and the family H3068 which Jehovah H3920 shall take H7126 shall come H1004 near by households; H1004 and the household H3068 which Jehovah H3920 shall take H7126 shall come H1397 near man H1397 by man.

15 H3920 And it shall be, that he that is taken H2764 with the devoted thing H8313 shall be burnt H784 with fire, H5674 he and all that he hath; because he hath transgressed H1285 the covenant H3068 of Jehovah, H6213 and because he hath wrought H5039 folly H3478 in Israel.

16 H3091 So Joshua H7925 rose up early H1242 in the morning, H7126 and brought H3478 Israel H7626 near by their tribes; H7626 and the tribe H3063 of Judah H3920 was taken:

17 H7126 and he brought H4940 near the family H3063 of Judah; H3920 and he took H4940 the family H2227 of the Zerahites: H7126 and he brought H4940 near the family H2227 of the Zerahites H1397 man H1397 by man; H2067 and Zabdi H3920 was taken:

18 H7126 and he brought H1004 near his household H1397 man H1397 by man; H5912 and Achan, H1121 the son H3756 of Carmi, H1121 the son H2067 of Zabdi, H1121 the son H2226 of Zerah, H4294 of the tribe H3063 of Judah, H3920 was taken.

19 H3091 And Joshua H559 said H5912 unto Achan, H1121 My son, H7760 give, H3519 I pray thee, glory H3068 to Jehovah, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H5414 and make H8426 confession H5046 unto him; and tell H6213 me now what thou hast done; H3582 hide it not from me.

20 H5912 And Achan H6030 answered H3091 Joshua, H559 and said, H546 Of a truth H2398 I have sinned H3068 against Jehovah, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H6213 and thus and thus have I done:

21 H7200 when I saw H7998 among the spoil H259 a H2896 goodly H8152 Babylonish H155 mantle, H3967 and two hundred H8255 shekels H3701 of silver, H259 and a H3956 wedge H2091 of gold H2572 of fifty H8255 shekels H4948 weight, H2530 then I coveted H3947 them, and took H2934 them; and, behold, they are hid H776 in the earth H8432 in the midst H168 of my tent, H3701 and the silver under it.

22 H3091 So Joshua H7971 sent H4397 messengers, H7323 and they ran H168 unto the tent; H2934 and, behold, it was hid H168 in his tent, H3701 and the silver under it.

23 H3947 And they took H8432 them from the midst H168 of the tent, H935 and brought H3091 them unto Joshua, H1121 and unto all the children H3478 of Israel; H3332 and they laid them down H6440 before H3068 Jehovah.

24 H3091 And Joshua, H3478 and all Israel H3947 with him, took H5912 Achan H1121 the son H2226 of Zerah, H3701 and the silver, H155 and the mantle, H3956 and the wedge H2091 of gold, H1121 and his sons, H1323 and his daughters, H7794 and his oxen, H2543 and his asses, H6629 and his sheep, H168 and his tent, H5927 and all that he had: and they brought H6010 them up unto the valley H5911 of Achor.

25 H3091 And Joshua H559 said, H4100 Why H5916 hast thou troubled H3068 us? Jehovah H5916 shall trouble H3117 thee this day. H3478 And all Israel H7275 stoned H68 him with stones; H8313 and they burned H784 them with fire, H5619 and stoned H68 them with stones.

26 H6965 And they raised H1419 over him a great H1530 heap H68 of stones, H3117 unto this day; H3068 and Jehovah H7725 turned H2740 from the fierceness H639 of his anger. H8034 Wherefore the name H4725 of that place H7121 was called, H6010 The valley H5911 of Achor, H3117 unto this day.
