Joshua 6:9-24

Rotherham(i) 9 And, the armed host, went on before the priests who blew with the horns,––and, the rear–guard, came after the ark, going on and blowing with the horns. 10 Now, unto the people, had Joshua given command, saying––Ye shall not shout nor let your voice be heard, neither shall there go out of your mouth, a word,––until the day when I say unto you Shout! then shall ye shout. 11 So he caused the ark of Yahweh to compass the city, going round once,––and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp. 12 And Joshua rose early in the morning,––and the priests bare the ark of Yahweh; 13 and, the seven priests who bare the seven rams’ horns before the ark of Yahweh, went on and on, and blew with the horns,––with, the armed host going on before them, and, the rear–guard, coming after the ark of Yahweh, going on and blowing with the horns. 14 So they compassed the city on the second day once, and returned into the camp,––thus, did they, six days. 15 And it came to pass, on the seventh day, that they rose early at the uprisings of the dawn, and compassed the city after this manner, seven times,––only on that day they compassed the city seven times. 16 And it came to pass, at the seventh time––when the priests blew with the horns, then did Joshua say unto the people––Shout, for Yahweh hath delivered unto you the city.
17 And it shall be, that, as for the city, devoted, shall it be and all that is therein unto Yahweh,––nevertheless, Rahab the harlot, shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers whom we sent. 18 But, in any wise, do, ye, beware of what is devoted, lest ye should covet, and then take of what is devoted,––and so cause the camp of Israel to be devoted, and bring trouble upon it. 19 But, as for all silver and gold and vessels of bronze and iron, hallowed, it is to Yahweh,––unto the treasury of Yahweh, shall it come. 20 So the people shouted, when the horns were blown,––yea it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the horn, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down under it, and the people went up into the city every man straight before him, and so they captured the city. 21 And they devoted all that were in the city, both man and woman, both young and old,––and ox and sheep and ass, with the edge of the sword. 22 But, unto the two men who spied out the land, Joshua said, Go into the house of the woman, the harlot,––and bring out thence the woman and all that she hath, as ye aware unto her. 23 So the young men the spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brethren and all that she had, yea, all her kindred, brought they out,––and set them outside the camp of Israel. 24 But, the city, burned they with fire, and all that was therein,––save only, the silver and the gold and the vessels of bronze and of iron, put they into the treasury of the house of Yahweh.
