1 As for Iericho, it was shut & kepte because of the childre of Israel, so that no man mighte go out ner in.
2 But the LORDE sayde vnto Iosua: Beholde, I haue geuen Iericho with ye kynge and men of warre therof, in to yi hande.
3 Let all the men of warre go once rounde aboute ye cite, and do so sixe dayes.
4 But vpon the seuenth daye let the prestes take the seuen trompettes of the yeare of Iubilye before the Arke, and go the same seuenth daye seuen tymes aboute the cite, and let the prestes blowe the trompettes.
