And they brought them up to the (A)Valley of Achor. 25 And Joshua said, “Why did you (B)bring trouble on us? The Lord brings trouble on you today.” And all Israel (C)stoned him with stones. (D)They burned them with fire and stoned them with stones. 26 And they raised over him (E)a great heap of stones that remains to this day. Then (F)the Lord turned from his burning anger. Therefore, to this day the name of that place is called the Valley of Achor.[a]
