Joshua 7:1-5

Great(i) 1 But yet the children of Israel trespased in the excommunicate thynges: And Acan the sonne of Carmy, the sonne of Zabdi, the sonne of Zareh of the tribe of Iuda, toke of the excommunicat thinges. And the wrath of the Lorde waxed whote agaynst the children of Israel. 2 And Iosua sent men from Iericho to Hai, which is besyde Bethauen, on the east syde of Bethel, & spake vnto them, sayinge: gett you vp, & vewe the countrey. And the men went vp, & spyed out Hai. 3 And retourned to Iosua, and sayde vnto him, lett not all the people go vp, but let as it were a two or thre thousande men goo vp, and smyte Hai and make not all the people to laboure thether, for they are but fewe. 4 And so there went vp thether of the people, aboute a thre thousande men, & they fledd before the men of Hai. 5 And the men of Hai smote of them vpon a thyrtye and sixe men: for they chased them from before the gate euen vnto Sebarim, & smote them in the goyng doune. Wherfore the hertes of the people for feare melted awaye like water.
