Joshua 7:25-26
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

25 Joshua said, “What misery have you caused us? May the Lord bring misery upon you today!”(A) And all Israel stoned him to death. They burnt them with fire and they stoned them. 26 Over Achan they piled a great heap of stones, which remains to the present day.(B) Then the Lord turned from his anger. That is why the place is called the Valley of Achor[a] to this day.
