¹¹ And when all the people had finished passing over, the ark of the Lord and the priests passed over before the people.

⁸ And as for you, command ^(A)the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, ‘When you come to the brink of the waters of the Jordan, ^(B)you shall stand still in the Jordan.’”

¹⁸ And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord came up from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks, ^(A)as before.

¹⁷ Now the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firmly on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, ^(A)and all Israel was passing over on dry ground until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.
