1Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.2 Yahweh said to Joshua, Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.3 All of your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this six days.4 Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.5 It shall be that when they make a long blast with the rams horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the city wall shall fall down flat, and the people shall go up, every man straight in front of him.6 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 Yahwehs ark.7 They said to the people, Advance! March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before Yahwehs ark.8 It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams horns before Yahweh advanced and blew the trumpets, and the ark of Yahwehs covenant followed them.
