Joshua 6

1 Now Jericho was closely shut up and besieged, and none went out of it, and none came in. 2 And the Lord said to Joshua, Behold, I deliver Jericho into thy power, and its king in it, *6. 2 Gr. mighty in strength.and its mighty men. 3 And do thou set the men of war round about it. 5 And it shall be that when ye shall sound with the trumpet, *6. 5 Gr. let all the people, etc.all the people shall shout together. And when they have shouted, the walls of the city shall fall *6. 5 Or, of their own accord.of themselves; and all the people shall enter, each one rushing direct into the city.

6 And Joshua the son of Naue went in to the priests, 7 and spoke to them, saying, Charge the people to go round, and encompass the city; and let your men of war pass on armed before the Lord.
