Joshua 3:4 BBE

²  And at the end of three days, the men in authority over the people went through the tents,

³  Giving the people their orders, and saying, When you see the ark of the agreement of the Lord your God lifted up by the priests, the Levites, then get up from your places and go after it;

⁴  But let there be a space between you and it of about two thousand cubits: come no nearer to it, so that you may see the way you have to go, for you have not been over this way before.

⁵  And Joshua said to the people, Make yourselves holy, for tomorrow the Lord will do works of wonder among you.

⁶  Then Joshua said to the priests, Take up the ark of the agreement and go over in front of the people. So they took up the ark of the agreement and went in front of the people.
