1 When the whole nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the LORD said to Joshua, 2 "Choose twelve men from among the people, one from each tribe, 3 and command them: ‘Take up for yourselves twelve stones from the middle of the Jordanwhere the priests were standing, carry them with you, and set them down in the place where you spend the night.’"
4 So Joshuasummoned the twelve men he had appointed from the Israelites, one from each tribe, 5 and said to them, "Cross over before the ark of the LORD your God into the middle of the Jordan. Each of you is to take a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of Israel, 6 to serve as a sign among you. In the future, when your children ask, ‘What do these stones mean to you?’ 7 you are to tell them, ‘The waters of the Jordanwere cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD. When it crossed the Jordan, the waters were cut off.’ Therefore these stones will be a memorial to the Israelites forever."
8 Thus the Israelites did as Joshuahad commanded them. They took up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, one for each tribe of Israel, just as the LORD had told Joshua; and they carried them to the camp, where they set them down.
9 Joshuaalso set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan,4:9 Some translators And Joshua set up the twelve stones that had been in the middle of the Jordanin the place where the priests who carried the ark of the covenant stood. And the stones are there to this day.
10 Now the priests who carried the ark remained standing in the middle of the Jordanuntil the people had completed everything the LORD had commanded Joshuato tell them, just as Moseshad directed Joshua. The people hurried across, 11 and after everyone had finished crossing, the priests with the ark of the LORD crossed in the sight of the people. 12 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manassehcrossed over before the Israelites, armed for battle as Moseshad instructed them. 13 About 40,000 troops armed for battle crossed over before the LORD into the plains of Jericho.
14 On that day the LORD exalted Joshuain the sight of all Israel, and they revered him all the days of his life, just as they had revered Moses.
15 Then the LORD said to Joshua, 16 "Command the priests who carry the ark of the Testimony4:16 That is, the ark of the covenantto come up from the Jordan."
17 So Joshuacommanded the priests, "Come up from the Jordan."
18 When the priests carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD came up out of the Jordanand their feet touched the dry land, the waters of the Jordanreturned to their course and overflowed all the banks as before.
The Camp at Gilgal
19 On the tenth day of the first month the people went up from the Jordanand camped at Gilgalon the eastern border of Jericho. 20 And there at GilgalJoshuaset up the twelve stones they had taken from the Jordan.
21 Then Joshua said to the Israelites, "In the future, when your children ask their fathers, ‘What is the meaning of these stones?’ 22 you are to tell them, ‘Israel crossed the Jordanon dry ground.’ 23 For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordanbefore you until you had crossed over, just as He did to the Red Sea,4:23 Or the Sea of Reedswhich He dried up before us until we had crossed over. 24 He did this so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty, and so that you may always fear the LORD your God."
