9 And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, 'Approach to here, and listen to the word of the Lord your God.'
10 And again, he said: 'By this shall you know that the Lord, the living God, is in your midst, and that he shall scatter in your sight, the Canaanite and the Hittite, the Hivite and the Perizzite, likewise the Girgashite, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite.
11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth shall go before you through the Jordan.
12 Prepare twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe.
13 And when the priests who are carrying the ark of the Lord, the God of the entire earth, will have placed the steps of their feet in the waters of the Jordan, the waters that are lower will run down and pass away, and those that are approaching above will stand together in a mass.'
