19 So Joshua said to Achan, “My son, give glory to the Lord, the God of Israel,(A) and make a confession to him.[a] I urge you, tell me what you have done. Don’t hide anything from me.”

I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel.(B) This is what I did: 21 When I saw among the spoils a beautiful cloak from Babylon,[b] five pounds[c] of silver, and a bar of gold weighing a pound and a quarter,[d] I coveted them and took them.(C) You can see for yourself. They are concealed in the ground inside my tent, with the silver under the cloak.”
