MLV(i)
4 And seven priests will bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark. And the seventh day you* will encompass the city seven times and the priests will blow the trumpets.
5 And it will be, that, when they make a prolonged blast with the ram's horn and when you* hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people will shout with a great shout. And the wall of the city will fall down flat and the people will go up every man straight before him.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, Take up the ark of the covenant and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Jehovah. 7 And they said to the people, Pass on and encompass the city and let the armed men pass on before the ark of Jehovah. 8 And it was so, that, when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before Jehovah passed on and blew the trumpets. And the ark of the covenant of Jehovah followed them. 9 And the armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets and the rearward went behind the ark, the priests blowing the trumpets as they went.
10 And Joshua commanded the people, saying, You* will not shout, nor let your* voice be heard, neither will any word proceed out of your* mouth until the day I bid you* shout. Then you* will shout. 11 So he caused the ark of Jehovah to encompass the city, going around it once. And they came into the camp and lodged in the camp.
12 And Joshua rose early in the morning and the priests took up the ark of Jehovah. 13 And the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Jehovah went on continually and blew the trumpets. And the armed men went before them and the rearward came behind the ark of Jehovah, the priests blowing the trumpets as they went. 14 And the second day they encompassed the city once and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
15 And it happened on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day and encompassed the city according to the same manner seven times. Only on that day they encompassed the city seven times. 16 And it happened at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, Shout, for Jehovah has given you* the city.
17 And the city will be set apart, even it and all that is in it, to Jehovah. Only Rahab the prostitute will live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
18 But as for you*, only keep yourselves from what is set apart, lest when you* have set it apart, you* take from what is set apart. So you* would make the camp of Israel accursed and trouble it. 19 But all the silver and gold and vessels of brass and iron, are holy to Jehovah. They will come into the treasury of Jehovah.
20 So the people shouted and the priests blew the trumpets. And it happened, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him and they took the city.
