9 Joshua told the Israelites, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God!”

Footnotes

  1. Joshua 3:7 tn Or more literally, “to exalt you in the eyes of all Israel.”
  2. Joshua 3:8 tn Heb “the edge of the waters of the Jordan.” The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied for clarity.
  3. Joshua 3:8 tn Heb “stand in the Jordan.” Here the repetition of the word “Jordan” would be redundant according to contemporary English style, so it was not included in the translation.
