1 Now Jericho was closely shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 And the LORD said to Joshua, See, I have given into thy hand Jericho, and its king, [and] the mighty men of valor.
3 And ye shall compass the city, all [ye] men of war, [and] go round the city once: thus shalt thou do six days.
4 And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
5 And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long [blast] with the ram's horn, [and] when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout: and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend every man straight before him.
