요단강에서의 기적
3 여호수아와 모든 이스라엘 백성은 아침 일찍 싯딤[a]에서 출발하여 요단 강으로 갔다. 그들은 강을 건너기에 앞서 그곳에 진을 쳤다.
2 사흘 뒤에 지휘관들이 온 진을 돌며 3 백성에게 명령을 내렸다. “너희는 레위 사람 제사장들이 주 너희 하나님의 계약궤를 메고 가는 것을 보거든, 각기 있던 자리를 떠나 그 뒤를 따라라. 4 그러면 너희가 이제껏 가 본 적이 없으나, 어느 길로 가야할지 알게 될 것이다. 그러나 너희와 그 궤 사이에 약 이천 자[b]의 거리를 두고 따라가야 한다. 그 궤에 가까이 가서는 안 된다.”
5 여호수아가 백성에게 말하였다. “너희는 자신들을 거룩하게 하여라. 주께서 내일 너희 가운데서 놀라운 일을 하실 것이다.” 6 여호수아가 제사장들에게 말하였다. “주의 계약궤를 메고 백성들을 앞서라.” 그러자 제사장들이 그것을 메고 백성들을 앞서 나아갔다.
7 주께서 여호수아에게 말씀하셨다. “오늘 내가 온 이스라엘 앞에서 너를 위대한 지도자로 세워 주는 일을 시작하겠다. 그러면 내가 모세와 함께 있었던 것처럼 너와도 함께 있다는 사실을 백성이 알게 될 것이다. 8 계약궤를 메고 갈 제사장들에게 요단 강 물가에 이르거든 강 가운데로 들어서라고 일러라.”
9 여호수아가 이스라엘 백성에게 말하였다. “이리 와서 주 너희 하나님의 말씀을 들어라. 10 이제 일어날 일은 살아 계신 하나님께서 너희와 함께하시며, 너희의 적들을 물리쳐 주시리라는 증거이다. 그분께서는 가나안 사람과 헷 사람과 히위 사람과 브리스 사람과 기르가스 사람과 아모리 사람과 여부스 사람을 너희 앞에서 쫓아내 주실 것이다. 11 보라. 온 땅의 주인이신 주의 계약궤가 너희보다 앞서 요단 강으로 들어갈 것이다. 12 이제 이스라엘 가문마다 한 사람씩 모두 열두 사람을 뽑아라. 13 온 땅의 주인이신 주의 궤를 멘 제사장들의 발바닥이 요단 강 물에 닿자마자, 강 위쪽에서 흘러내리던 물이 마치 둑에 막힌 것처럼 뒤로 쌓일 것이다.”
14 백성이 요단 강을 건너려고 진을 떠날 때에 계약궤를 멘 제사장들이 그들을 앞장서 나아갔다. 15 그때는 마침 추수철이어서 요단 강 물이 강둑까지 넘실거리고 있었다. 그러나 궤를 멘 제사장들이 요단 강에 이르러 강물에 발을 들여놓는 순간, 16 위에서 내려오던 물이 흐르기를 멈추었다. 그리고 그 물이 마치 둑에 막힌 것처럼 뒤로 쌓여 올라가, 사르단 가까이에 있는 아담이라는 마을에까지 이르렀다. 그러면서 아라바 호수라고도 하는 소금바다[c]로 흘러내리던 물줄기가 완전히 끊어졌다. 그리하여 이스라엘 백성은 여리고 가까운 곳에서 강을 건널 수 있었다. 17 온 이스라엘 백성이 마른 땅을 밟고 요단 강을 건너는 동안, 제사장들은 주의 계약궤를 메고 강 한 가운데의 마른 땅 위에 굳건히 서 있었다.

Israel Crosses the Jordan
3 Then Joshua rose early in the morning and they set out (A)from Shittim. And they came to the Jordan, he and all the people of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over. 2 (B)At the end of three days the officers went through the camp 3 and commanded the people, “As soon as you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God being carried by (C)the Levitical priests, then you shall set out from your place and follow it. 4 (D)Yet there shall be a distance between you and it, about 2,000 cubits[a] in length. Do not come near it, in order that you may know the way you shall go, for you have not passed this way before.” 5 Then Joshua said to the people, (E)“Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.” 6 And Joshua said to the priests, (F)“Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on before the people.” So they took up the ark of the covenant and went before the people.
7 The Lord said to Joshua, “Today I will begin to (G)exalt you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, (H)as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. 8 And as for you, command (I)the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, ‘When you come to the brink of the waters of the Jordan, (J)you shall stand still in the Jordan.’” 9 And Joshua said to the people of Israel, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God.” 10 And Joshua said, “Here is how you shall know that (K)the living God is among you and that he will without fail (L)drive out from before you the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Hivites, the Perizzites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, and the Jebusites. 11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of (M)the Lord of all the earth[b] (N)is passing over before you into the Jordan. 12 Now therefore (O)take twelve men from the tribes of Israel, (P)from each tribe a man. 13 And (Q)when the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of the Lord, (R)the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off from flowing, and the waters coming down from above shall (S)stand in one heap.”
14 So when the people set out from their tents to pass over the Jordan with the priests bearing (T)the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and as soon as those bearing the ark had come as far as the Jordan, and (U)the feet of the priests bearing the ark were dipped in the brink of the water (now (V)the Jordan overflows all its banks (W)throughout the time of harvest), 16 the waters coming down from above stood and rose up in a heap very far away, at Adam, the city that is beside (X)Zarethan, and those flowing down toward the Sea of (Y)the Arabah, (Z)the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. And the people passed over opposite Jericho. 17 Now the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firmly on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, (AA)and all Israel was passing over on dry ground until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.

Israel Crosses the Jordan
3 Then Joshua rose early in the morning; and he and all the sons of Israel set out from (A)Shittim and came to the Jordan, and they lodged there before they crossed. 2 (B)Now it happened that at the end of three days the officers went through the midst of the camp; 3 and they commanded the people, saying, “When you see the (C)ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God with the Levitical priests carrying it, then you shall set out from your place and go after it. 4 However, there shall be between you and it a distance of about [a]2,000 cubits by measure. Do not come near it, that you may know the way by which you shall go, for you have not passed this way before.”
5 Then Joshua said to the people, “(D)Set yourselves apart as holy, for tomorrow Yahweh will do wondrous deeds among you.” 6 And Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, “Carry the ark of the covenant and cross over ahead of the people.” So they carried the ark of the covenant and went ahead of the people.
7 Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “This day I will begin to (E)magnify you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that just as I have been with Moses, I will be with you. 8 Moreover, you shall command the priests who are carrying the ark of the covenant, saying, ‘When you come to the edge of the waters of the Jordan, you shall stand still in the Jordan.’” 9 Then Joshua said to the sons of Israel, “Come near, and hear the words of Yahweh your God.” 10 And Joshua said, “By this you shall know that (F)the living God is among you, and that He will assuredly (G)dispossess from before you the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Hivite, the Perizzite, the Girgashite, the Amorite, and the Jebusite. 11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of (H)the Lord of all the earth is crossing over ahead of you into the Jordan. 12 So now, (I)take for yourselves twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man for each tribe. 13 And it will be that when the soles of the feet of the priests who carry the ark of Yahweh, the Lord of all the earth, rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan will be cut off, and the waters which are [b]flowing down from above [c]will (J)stand in one heap.”
14 So it happened that when the people set out from their tents to cross the Jordan with the priests carrying (K)the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and when those who carried the ark came into the Jordan, and the feet of the priests carrying the ark were dipped in the edge of the water (for the (L)Jordan overflows all its banks all the days of harvest), 16 (M)the waters which were [d]flowing down from above stood and rose up in (N)one heap, a great distance away at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those which were [e]flowing down toward the sea of the (O)Arabah, the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. So the people crossed opposite Jericho. 17 And the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh stood firm (P)on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel crossed on dry ground until all the nation had completed crossing the Jordan.

Crossing the Jordan
3 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim(A) and went to the Jordan,(B) where they camped before crossing over. 2 After three days(C) the officers(D) went throughout the camp,(E) 3 giving orders to the people: “When you see the ark of the covenant(F) of the Lord your God, and the Levitical(G) priests(H) carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it. 4 Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before. But keep a distance of about two thousand cubits[a](I) between you and the ark; do not go near it.”
5 Joshua told the people, “Consecrate yourselves,(J) for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things(K) among you.”
6 Joshua said to the priests, “Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on ahead of the people.” So they took it up and went ahead of them.
7 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I will begin to exalt you(L) in the eyes of all Israel, so they may know that I am with you as I was with Moses.(M) 8 Tell the priests(N) who carry the ark of the covenant: ‘When you reach the edge of the Jordan’s waters, go and stand in the river.’”
9 Joshua said to the Israelites, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God. 10 This is how you will know that the living God(O) is among you(P) and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites,(Q) Hivites, Perizzites,(R) Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites.(S) 11 See, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth(T) will go into the Jordan ahead of you.(U) 12 Now then, choose twelve men(V) from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe. 13 And as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the Lord—the Lord of all the earth(W)—set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream(X) will be cut off(Y) and stand up in a heap.(Z)”
14 So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant(AA) went ahead(AB) of them. 15 Now the Jordan(AC) is at flood stage(AD) all during harvest.(AE) Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, 16 the water from upstream stopped flowing.(AF) It piled up in a heap(AG) a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan,(AH) while the water flowing down(AI) to the Sea of the Arabah(AJ) (that is, the Dead Sea(AK)) was completely cut off.(AL) So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.(AM) 17 The priests(AN) who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground,(AO) while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.(AP)
