12and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, pass over, by fifties, before the sons of Israel, as Moses had spoken unto them;
13about forty thousand, armed ones of the host, passed over before Jehovah for battle, unto the plains of Jericho.
14On that day hath Jehovah made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel, and they reverence him, as they reverenced Moses, all days of his life.
16`Command the priests bearing the ark of the testimony, and they come up out of the Jordan.`
17And Joshua commandeth the priests, saying, `Come ye up out of the Jordan.`
18And it cometh to pass, in the coming up of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the midst of the Jordan -- the soles of the feet of the priests have been drawn up into the dry ground -- and the waters of the Jordan turn back to their place, and go as heretofore over all its banks.
