KJV_Strong : Joshua 6
1. Now Jericho[H3405] was straitly shut up[H5462] [H5462] because[H4480] [H6440] of the children[H1121] of Israel:[H3478] none[H369] went out,[H3318] and none[H369] came in.[H935]
2. And the LORD[H3068] said[H559] unto[H413] Joshua,[H3091] See,[H7200] I have given[H5414] into thine hand[H3027] [H853] Jericho,[H3405] and the king[H4428] thereof, and the mighty[H1368] men of valor.[H2428]
3. And ye shall compass[H5437] [H853] the city,[H5892] all[H3605] ye men[H376] of war,[H4421] and go round about[H5362] [H853] the city[H5892] once.[H259] [H6471] Thus[H3541] shalt thou do[H6213] six[H8337] days.[H3117]
4. And seven[H7651] priests[H3548] shall bear[H5375] before[H6440] the ark[H727] seven[H7651] trumpets[H7782] of rams' horns:[H3104] and the seventh[H7637] day[H3117] ye shall compass[H5437] [H853] the city[H5892] seven[H7651] times,[H6471] and the priests[H3548] shall blow[H8628] with the trumpets.[H7782]
5. And it shall come to pass,[H1961] that when they make a long blast[H4900] with the ram's[H3104] horn,[H7161] and when ye hear[H8085] [H853] the sound[H6963] of the trumpet,[H7782] all[H3605] the people[H5971] shall shout[H7321] with a great[H1419] shout;[H8643] and the wall[H2346] of the city[H5892] shall fall down[H5307] flat,[H8478] and the people[H5971] shall ascend up[H5927] every man[H376] straight before[H5048] him.
6. And Joshua[H3091] the son[H1121] of Nun[H5126] called[H7121] [H413] the priests,[H3548] and said[H559] unto[H413] them, Take up[H5375] [H853] the ark[H727] of the covenant,[H1285] and let[H5375] seven[H7651] priests[H3548] bear[H5375] seven[H7651] trumpets[H7782] of rams' horns[H3104] before[H6440] the ark[H727] of the LORD.[H3068]
7. And he said[H559] unto[H413] the people,[H5971] Pass on,[H5674] and compass[H5437] [H853] the city,[H5892] and let him that is armed[H2502] pass on[H5674] before[H6440] the ark[H727] of the LORD.[H3068]
8. And it came to pass,[H1961] when Joshua[H3091] had spoken[H559] unto[H413] the people,[H5971] that the seven[H7651] priests[H3548] bearing[H5375] the seven[H7651] trumpets[H7782] of rams' horns[H3104] passed on[H5674] before[H6440] the LORD,[H3068] and blew[H8628] with the trumpets:[H7782] and the ark[H727] of the covenant[H1285] of the LORD[H3068] followed[H1980] [H310] them.
9. And the armed men[H2502] went[H1980] before[H6440] the priests[H3548] that blew[H8628] with the trumpets,[H7782] and the rearward[H622] came[H1980] after[H310] the ark,[H727] the priests going on,[H1980] and blowing[H8628] with the trumpets.[H7782]
10. And Joshua[H3091] had commanded[H6680] the people,[H5971] saying,[H559] Ye shall not[H3808] shout,[H7321] nor[H3808] make any noise[H8085] with[H854] your voice,[H6963] neither[H3808] shall any word[H1697] proceed out[H3318] of your mouth,[H4480] [H6310] until[H5704] the day[H3117] I bid[H559] you shout;[H7321] then shall ye shout.[H7321]
11. So the ark[H727] of the LORD[H3068] compassed[H5437] [H853] the city,[H5892] going about[H5362] it once:[H259] [H6471] and they came[H935] into the camp,[H4264] and lodged[H3885] in the camp.[H4264]
12. And Joshua[H3091] rose early[H7925] in the morning,[H1242] and the priests[H3548] took up[H5375] [H853] the ark[H727] of the LORD.[H3068]
13. And seven[H7651] priests[H3548] bearing[H5375] seven[H7651] trumpets[H7782] of rams' horns[H3104] before[H6440] the ark[H727] of the LORD[H3068] went on continually,[H1980] [H1980] and blew[H8628] with the trumpets:[H7782] and the armed men[H2502] went[H1980] before[H6440] them; but the rearward[H622] came[H1980] after[H310] the ark[H727] of the LORD,[H3068] the priests going on,[H1980] and blowing[H8628] with the trumpets.[H7782]
14. And the second[H8145] day[H3117] they compassed[H5437] [H853] the city[H5892] once,[H259] [H6471] and returned[H7725] into the camp:[H4264] so[H3541] they did[H6213] six[H8337] days.[H3117]
15. And it came to pass[H1961] on the seventh[H7637] day,[H3117] that they rose early[H7925] about the dawning[H5927] of the day,[H7837] and compassed[H5437] [H853] the city[H5892] after the same[H2088] manner[H4941] seven[H7651] times:[H6471] only[H7535] on that[H2088] day[H3117] they compassed[H5437] [H853] the city[H5892] seven[H7651] times.[H6471]
16. And it came to pass[H1961] at the seventh[H7637] time,[H6471] when the priests[H3548] blew[H8628] with the trumpets,[H7782] Joshua[H3091] said[H559] unto[H413] the people,[H5971] Shout;[H7321] for[H3588] the LORD[H3068] hath given[H5414] you[H853] the city.[H5892]
17. And the city[H5892] shall be[H1961] accursed,[H2764] even it,[H1931] and all[H3605] that[H834] are therein, to the LORD:[H3068] only[H7535] Rahab[H7343] the harlot[H2181] shall live,[H2421] she[H1931] and all[H3605] that[H834] are with[H854] her in the house,[H1004] because[H3588] she hid[H2244] [H853] the messengers[H4397] that[H834] we sent.[H7971]
18. And ye,[H859] in any wise[H7357] keep[H8104] yourselves from[H4480] the accursed thing,[H2764] lest[H6435] ye make yourselves accursed,[H2763] when ye take[H3947] of[H4480] the accursed thing,[H2764] and make[H7760] [H853] the camp[H4264] of Israel[H3478] a curse,[H2764] and trouble[H5916] it.
19. But all[H3605] the silver,[H3701] and gold,[H2091] and vessels[H3627] of brass[H5178] and iron,[H1270] are consecrated[H6944] unto the LORD:[H3068] they shall come[H935] into the treasury[H214] of the LORD.[H3068]
20. So the people[H5971] shouted[H7321] when the priests blew[H8628] with the trumpets:[H7782] and it came to pass,[H1961] when the people[H5971] heard[H8085] [H853] the sound[H6963] of the trumpet,[H7782] and the people[H5971] shouted[H7321] with a great[H1419] shout,[H8643] that the wall[H2346] fell down[H5307] flat,[H8478] so that the people[H5971] went up[H5927] into the city,[H5892] every man[H376] straight before[H5048] him, and they took[H3920] [H853] the city.[H5892]
21. And they utterly destroyed[H2763] [H853] all[H3605] that[H834] was in the city,[H5892] both man[H4480] [H376] and woman,[H802] young[H4480] [H5288] and old,[H2205] and ox,[H7794] and sheep,[H7716] and ass,[H2543] with the edge[H6310] of the sword.[H2719]
22. But Joshua[H3091] had said[H559] unto the two[H8147] men[H376] that had spied out[H7270] [H853] the country,[H776] Go into[H935] the harlot's[H802] [H2181] house,[H1004] and bring out[H3318] thence[H4480] [H8033] [H853] the woman,[H802] and all[H3605] that[H834] she hath, as[H834] ye swore[H7650] unto her.
23. And the young men[H5288] that were spies[H7270] went in,[H935] and brought out[H3318] [H853] Rahab,[H7343] and her father,[H1] and her mother,[H517] and her brethren,[H251] and all[H3605] that[H834] she had; and they brought out[H3318] all[H3605] her kindred,[H4940] and left[H5117] them without[H4480] [H2351] the camp[H4264] of Israel.[H3478]
24. And they burnt[H8313] the city[H5892] with fire,[H784] and all[H3605] that[H834] was therein: only[H7535] the silver,[H3701] and the gold,[H2091] and the vessels[H3627] of brass[H5178] and of iron,[H1270] they put[H5414] into the treasury[H214] of the house[H1004] of the LORD.[H3068]
25. And Joshua[H3091] saved[H2421] Rahab[H7343] the harlot[H2181] alive, and her father's[H1] household,[H1004] and all[H3605] that[H834] she had; and she dwelleth[H3427] in[H7130] Israel[H3478] even unto[H5704] this[H2088] day;[H3117] because[H3588] she hid[H2244] [H853] the messengers,[H4397] which[H834] Joshua[H3091] sent[H7971] to spy out[H7270] [H853] Jericho.[H3405]
26. And Joshua[H3091] adjured[H7650] them at that[H1931] time,[H6256] saying,[H559] Cursed[H779] be the man[H376] before[H6440] the LORD,[H3068] that[H834] riseth up[H6965] and buildeth[H1129] [H853] this[H2063] city[H5892] [H853] Jericho:[H3405] he shall lay the foundation[H3245] thereof in his firstborn,[H1060] and in his youngest[H6810] son shall he set up[H5324] the gates[H1817] of it.
27. So the LORD[H3068] was[H1961] with[H854] Joshua;[H3091] and his fame[H8089] was[H1961] noised throughout all[H3605] the country.[H776]
