Joshua 3:13
Compare all
11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of athe Lord of all the earth is crossing over before you into the Jordan.  
12 Now therefore, atake for yourselves twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man from every tribe.  
13 And it shall come to pass, aas soon as the soles of the feet of the priests who bear the ark of the Lord, bthe Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, the waters that come down from upstream, and they cshall stand as a heap.”  
14 So it was, when the people set out from their camp to cross over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the aark of the covenant before the people,  
15 and as those who bore the ark came to the Jordan, and athe feet of the priests who bore the ark dipped in the edge of the water (for the bJordan overflows all its banks cduring the whole time of harvest),  
16 that the waters which came down from upstream stood still, and rose in a heap very far away1 at Adam, the city that is beside aZaretan. So the waters that went down binto the Sea of the Arabah, cthe 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; aand all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the people had crossed completely over the Jordan.
