Josué 3

14 So it was, when the people set out from their camp to cross over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the *Ps. 132:8; Acts 7:44, 45ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and as those who bore the ark came to the Jordan, and *Josh. 3:13the feet of the priests who bore the ark dipped in the edge of the water (for the *1 Chr. 12:15; Jer. 12:5; 49:19Jordan overflows all its banks *Josh. 4:18; 5:10, 12during the whole time of harvest), 16 that the waters which came down from upstream stood still, and rose in a heap very far away at Adam, the city that is beside *1 Kin. 4:12; 7:46Zaretan. So the waters that went down *Deut. 3:17into the Sea of the Arabah, *Gen. 14:3; Num. 34:3the Salt Sea, failed, and were cut off; and the people crossed over opposite Jericho. 17 Then the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan; *Gen. 50:24; Ex. 3:8; 6:1–8; 14:21, 22, 29; 33:1; Deut. 6:10; Heb. 11:29and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the people had crossed completely over the Jordan.
