Joshua 4:16-18

Modern English Version

¹⁶ “Command the priests carrying the ark of the testimony: ‘Come up out of the Jordan!’ ”

¹⁷ So Joshua commanded the priests, “Come up out of the Jordan!”

¹⁸ Then when the priests who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord came up from the middle of the Jordan and the soles of the priests’ feet touched the dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks as before.
