- Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.
- Yahweh said to Joshua, "Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.
- All your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this six days.
- Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.
- It shall be that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you 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 go up every man straight before him."
- Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, "Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Yahweh."
- They said to the people, "Advance! March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before Yahweh's ark."
- It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before Yahweh advanced, and blew the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of Yahweh followed them.
- The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the ark went after them. The trumpets sounded as they went.
- Joshua commanded the people, saying, "You shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout."
- So he caused the ark of Yahweh to go around the city, going about it once. Then they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
- Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of Yahweh.
- The seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of Yahweh went on continually, and blew the trumpets: and the armed men went before them. The rear guard came after the ark of Yahweh. The trumpets sounded as they went.
- The second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. They did this six days.
- It happened on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day, and marched around the city in the same way seven times. Only on this day they marched around the city seven times.
- It happened at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, "Shout, for Yahweh has given you the city!
- The city shall be devoted, even it and all that is in it, to Yahweh. Only Rahab the prostitute shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
- But as for you, only keep yourselves from the devoted thing, lest when you have devoted it, you take of the devoted thing; so would you make the camp of Israel accursed, and trouble it.
- But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are holy to Yahweh. They shall come into Yahweh's treasury."
- So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets. It happened, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
- They utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, and sheep, and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
- Joshua said to the two men who had spied out the land, "Go into the prostitute's house, and bring out from there the woman and all that she has, as you swore to her."
- The young men who were spies went in, and brought out Rahab with her father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. They also brought out all her relatives, and they set them outside of the camp of Israel.
- They burnt the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they put the silver, the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron into the treasury of Yahweh's house.
- But Rahab the prostitute, her father's household, and all that she had, Joshua saved alive. She lived in the midst of Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers, whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
- Joshua commanded them with an oath at that time, saying, "Cursed is the man before Yahweh, who rises up and builds this city Jericho. With the loss of his firstborn shall he lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son shall he set up its gates."
- So Yahweh was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.

- ויריחו סגרת ומסגרת מפני בני ישראל אין יוצא ואין בא׃ ס
- ויאמר יהוה אל־יהושע ראה נתתי בידך את־יריחו ואת־מלכה גבורי החיל׃
- וסבתם את־העיר כל אנשי המלחמה הקיף את־העיר פעם אחת כה תעשה ששת ימים׃
- ושבעה כהנים ישאו שבעה שופרות היובלים לפני הארון וביום השביעי תסבו את־העיר שבע פעמים והכהנים יתקעו בשופרות׃
- והיה במשך בקרן היובל את־קול השופר יריעו כל־העם תרועה גדולה ונפלה חומת העיר תחתיה ועלו העם איש נגדו׃
- ויקרא יהושע בן־נון אל־הכהנים ויאמר אלהם שאו את־ארון הברית ושבעה כהנים ישאו שבעה שופרות יובלים לפני ארון יהוה׃
- אל־העם עברו וסבו את־העיר והחלוץ יעבר לפני ארון יהוה׃
- ויהי כאמר יהושע אל־העם ושבעה הכהנים נשאים שבעה שופרות היובלים לפני יהוה עברו ותקעו בשופרות וארון ברית יהוה הלך אחריהם׃
- והחלוץ הלך לפני הכהנים השופרות והמאסף הלך אחרי הארון הלוך ותקוע בשופרות׃
- ואת־העם צוה יהושע לאמר לא תריעו ולא־תשמיעו את־קולכם ולא־יצא מפיכם דבר עד יום אמרי אליכם הריעו והריעתם׃
- ויסב ארון־יהוה את־העיר הקף פעם אחת ויבאו המחנה וילינו במחנה׃ ף
- וישכם יהושע בבקר וישאו הכהנים את־ארון יהוה׃
- ושבעה הכהנים נשאים שבעה שופרות היבלים לפני ארון יהוה הלכים הלוך ותקעו בשופרות והחלוץ הלך לפניהם והמאסף הלך אחרי ארון יהוה ותקוע בשופרות׃
- ויסבו את־העיר ביום השני פעם אחת וישבו המחנה כה עשו ששת ימים׃
- ויהי ביום השביעי וישכמו כעלות השחר ויסבו את־העיר כמשפט הזה שבע פעמים רק ביום ההוא סבבו את־העיר שבע פעמים׃
- ויהי בפעם השביעית תקעו הכהנים בשופרות ויאמר יהושע אל־העם הריעו כי־נתן יהוה לכם את־העיר׃
- והיתה העיר חרם היא וכל־אשר־בה ליהוה רק רחב הזונה תחיה היא וכל־אשר אתה בבית כי החבאתה את־המלאכים אשר שלחנו׃
- ורק־אתם שמרו מן־החרם פן־תחרימו ולקחתם מן־החרם ושמתם את־מחנה ישראל לחרם ועכרתם אותו׃
- וכל כסף וזהב וכלי נחשת וברזל קדש הוא ליהוה אוצר יהוה יבוא׃
- וירע העם ויתקעו בשפרות ויהי כשמע העם את־קול השופר ויריעו העם תרועה גדולה ותפל החומה תחתיה ויעל העם העירה איש נגדו וילכדו את־העיר׃
- ויחרימו את־כל־אשר בעיר מאיש ועד־אשה מנער ועד־זקן ועד שור ושה וחמור לפי־חרב׃
- ולשנים האנשים המרגלים את־הארץ אמר יהושע באו בית־האשה הזונה והוציאו משם את־האשה ואת־כל־אשר־לה כאשר נשבעתם לה׃
- ויבאו הנערים המרגלים ויציאו את־רחב ואת־אביה ואת־אמה ואת־אחיה ואת־כל־אשר־לה ואת כל־משפחותיה הוציאו ויניחום מחוץ למחנה ישראל׃
- והעיר שרפו באש וכל־אשר־בה רק הכסף והזהב וכלי הנחשת והברזל נתנו אוצר בית־יהוה׃
- ואת־רחב הזונה ואת־בית אביה ואת־כל־אשר־לה החיה יהושע ותשב בקרב ישראל עד היום הזה כי החביאה את־המלאכים אשר־שלח יהושע לרגל את־יריחו׃ ף
- וישבע יהושע בעת ההיא לאמר ארור האיש לפני יהוה אשר יקום ובנה את־העיר הזאת את־יריחו בבכרו ייסדנה ובצעירו יציב דלתיה׃
- ויהי יהוה את־יהושע ויהי שמעו בכל־הארץ׃

- Jericho autem clausa erat atque munita, timore filiorum Israël, et nullus egredi audebat aut ingredi.
- Dixitque Dominus ad Josue : Ecce dedi in manu tua Jericho, et regem ejus, omnesque fortes viros.
- Circuite urbem cuncti bellatores semel per diem : sic facietis sex diebus.
- Septimo autem die, sacerdotes tollant septem buccinas, quarum usus est in jubilæo, et præcedant arcam fœderis : septiesque circuibitis civitatem, et sacerdotes clangent buccinis.
- Cumque insonuerit vox tubæ longior atque concisior, et in nuribus vestris increpuerit, conclamabit omnis populus vociferatione maxima, et muri funditus corruent civitatis, ingredienturque singuli per locum contra quem steterint.
- Vocavit ergo Josue filius Nun sacerdotes, et dixit ad eos : Tollite arcam fœderis : et septem alii sacerdotes tollant septem jubilæorum buccinas, et incedant ante arcam Domini.
- Ad populum quoque ait : Ite, et circuite civitatem, armati, præcedentes arcam Domini.
- Cumque Josue verba finisset, et septem sacerdotes septem buccinis clangerent ante arcam fœderis Domini,
- omnisque præcederet armatus exercitus, reliquum vulgus arcam sequebatur, ac buccinis omnia concrepabant.
- Præceperat autem Josue populo, dicens : Non clamabitis, nec audietur vox vestra, neque ullus sermo ex ore vestro egredietur, donec veniat dies in quo dicam vobis : Clamate, et vociferamini.
- Circuivit ergo arca Domini civitatem semel per diem, et reversa in castra mansit ibi.
- Igitur Josue de nocte consurgente, tulerunt sacerdotes arcam Domini,
- et septem ex eis septem buccinas, quarum in jubilæo usus est : præcedebantque arcam Domini ambulantes atque clangentes : et armatus populus ibat ante eos, vulgus autem reliquum sequebatur arcam, et buccinis personabat.
- Circuieruntque civitatem secundo die semel, et reversi sunt in castra. Sic fecerunt sex diebus.
- Dies autem septimo, diluculo consurgentes, circuierunt urbem, sicut dispositum erat, septies.
- Cumque septimo circuitu clangerent buccinis sacerdotes, dixit Josue ad omnem Israël : Vociferamini : tradidit enim vobis Dominus civitatem :
- sitque civitas hæc anathema, et omnia quæ in ea sunt, Domino : sola Rahab meretrix vivat cum universis, qui cum ea in domo sunt : abscondit enim nuntios quos direximus.
- Vos autem cavete ne de his, quæ præcepta sunt, quippiam contingatis, et sitis prævaricationis rei, et omnia castra Israël sub peccato sint atque turbentur.
- Quidquid autem auri et argenti fuerit, et vasorum æneorum ac ferri, Domino consecretur, repositum in thesauris ejus.
- Igitur omni populo vociferante, et clangentibus tubis, postquam in aures multitudinis vox sonitusque increpuit, muri illico corruerunt : et ascendit unusquisque per locum, qui contra se erat : ceperuntque civitatem,
- et interfecerunt omnia quæ erant in ea, a viro usque ad mulierem, ab infante usque ad senem. Boves quoque et oves et asinos in ore gladii percusserunt.
- Duobus autem viris, qui exploratores missi fuerant, dixit Josue : Ingredimini domum mulieris meretricis, et producite eam, et omnia quæ illius sunt, sicut illi juramento firmastis.
- Ingressique juvenes eduxerunt Rahab, et parentes ejus, fratres quoque, et cunctam supellectilem ac cognationem illius, et extra castra Israël manere fecerunt.
- Urbem autem, et omnia quæ erant in ea, succenderunt, absque auro et argento, et vasis æneis, ac ferro, quæ in ærarium Domini consecrarunt.
- Rahab vero meretricem, et domum patris ejus, et omnia quæ habebat, fecit Josue vivere, et habitaverunt in medio Israël, usque in præsentem diem : eo quod absconderit nuntios, quos miserat ut explorarent Jericho. In tempore illo, imprecatus est Josue, dicens :
- Maledictus vir coram Domino, qui suscitaverit et ædificaverit civitatem Jericho. In primogenito suo fundamenta illius jaciat, et in novissimo liberorum ponat portas ejus.
- Fuit ergo Dominus cum Josue, et nomen ejus vulgatum est in omni terra.

- Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
- And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
- And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
- 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.
- 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 up every man straight before him.
- And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD.
- And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD.
- And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the LORD, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
- And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rereward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
- And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.
- So the ark of the LORD compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
- And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
- And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rereward came after the ark of the LORD, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
- And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
- And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
- And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.
- And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
- And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.
- But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.
- So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
- And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
- But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her.
- And the young men that were spies went in, and brought Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.
- And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.
- And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
- And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.
- So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
