Joshua 4:16-18

New International Reader's Version

¹⁶ “Command the priests to come up out of the Jordan River. They are carrying the ark where the tablets of the covenant law are kept.”

¹⁷ So Joshua gave a command to the priests. He said, “Come up out of the Jordan River.”

¹⁸ Then the priests came up out of the river. They were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord. As soon as they stepped out on dry ground, the water of the Jordan began to flow again. It went over its banks, just as it had done before.
