Joshua 3:2-4

Christian Standard Bible

² After three days the officers went through the camp^{(A) 3} and commanded the people, “When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God carried by the Levitical priests,^(B) you are to break camp and follow it. ⁴ But keep a distance of about a thousand yards^[a] between yourselves and the ark. Don’t go near it, so that you can see the way to go, for you haven’t traveled this way before.”
