Joshua 6:16-27

6:16

And it came to pass at the seventh
<07637>

time
<06471>_,

when the priests
<03548>

blew
<08628> (8804)

with the trumpets
<07782>_,

Joshua
<03091>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the people
<05971>_,

Shout
<07321> (8685)_;

for the LORD
<03068>

hath given
<05414> (8804)

you the city
<05892>_.

6:17

And the city
<05892>

shall be accursed
<02764>_,

[even] it, and all that [are] therein, to the LORD
<03068>_:

only Rahab
<07343>

the harlot
<02181> (8802)

shall live
<02421> (8799)_,

she and all that [are] with her in the house
<01004>_,

because she hid
<02244> (8689)

the messengers
<04397>

that we sent
<07971> (8804)_.

{accursed: or, devoted}

6:18

And ye, in any wise
<07535>

keep
<08104> (8798)

[yourselves] from the accursed thing
<02764>_,

lest ye make [yourselves] accursed
<02763> (8686)_,

when ye take
<03947> (8804)

of the accursed thing
<02764>_,

and make
<07760> (8804)

the camp
<04264>

of Israel
<03478>

a curse
<02764>_,

and trouble
<05916> (8804)

it. {accursed: or, devoted} {a curse: or, devoted}

6:19

But all the silver
<03701>_,

and gold
<02091>_,

and vessels
<03627>

of brass
<05178>

and iron
<01270>_,

[are] consecrated
<06944>

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

they shall come
<0935> (8799)

into the treasury
<0214>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{consecrated: Heb. holiness}

6:20

So the people
<05971>

shouted
<07321> (8686)

when [the priests] blew
<08628> (8799)

with the trumpets
<07782>_:

and it came to pass, when the people
<05971>

heard
<08085> (8800)

the sound
<06963>

of the trumpet
<07782>_,

and the people
<05971>

shouted
<07321> (8686)

with a great
<01419>

shout
<08643>_,

that the wall
<02346>

fell down flat
<05307> (8799)_,

so that the people
<05971>

went up
<05927> (8799)

into the city
<05892>_,

every man
<0376>

straight before him, and they took
<03920> (8799)

the city
<05892>_.

{flat: Heb. under it}

6:21

And they utterly destroyed
<02763> (8686)

all that [was] in the city
<05892>_,

both man
<0376>

and woman
<0802>_,

young
<05288>

and old
<02205>_,

and ox
<07794>_,

and sheep
<07716>_,

and ass
<02543>_,

with the edge
<06310>

of the sword
<02719>_.

6:22

But Joshua
<03091>

had said
<0559> (8804)

unto the two
<08147>

men
<0582>

that had spied out
<07270> (8764)

the country
<0776>_,

Go
<0935> (8798)

into the harlot's
<02181> (8802)

house
<01004>_,

and bring out
<03318> (8685)

thence the woman
<0802>_,

and all that she hath, as ye sware
<07650> (8738)

unto her.

6:23

And the young men
<05288>

that were spies
<07270> (8764)

went in
<0935> (8799)_,

and brought out
<03318> (8686)

Rahab
<07343>_,

and her father
<01>_,

and her mother
<0517>_,

and her brethren
<0251>_,

and all that she had; and they brought out
<03318> (8689)

all her kindred
<04940>_,

and left
<03240> (8686)

them without
<02351>

the camp
<04264>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{kindred: Heb. families}

6:24

And they burnt
<08313> (8804)

the city
<05892>

with fire
<0784>_,

and all that [was] therein: only the silver
<03701>_,

and the gold
<02091>_,

and the vessels
<03627>

of brass
<05178>

and of iron
<01270>_,

they put
<05414> (8804)

into the treasury
<0214>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

6:25

And Joshua
<03091>

saved
<02421> (0)

Rahab
<07343>

the harlot
<02181> (8802)

alive
<02421> (8689)_,

and her father's
<01>

household
<01004>_,

and all that she had; and she dwelleth
<03427> (8799)

in
<07130>

Israel
<03478>

[even] unto this day
<03117>_;

because she hid
<02244> (8689)

the messengers
<04397>_,

which Joshua
<03091>

sent
<07971> (8804)

to spy out
<07270> (8763)

Jericho
<03405>_.

6:26

And Joshua
<03091>

adjured
<07650> (8686)

[them] at that time
<06256>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Cursed
<0779> (8803)

[be] the man
<0376>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

that riseth up
<06965> (8799)

and buildeth
<01129> (8804)

this city
<05892>

Jericho
<03405>_:

he shall lay the foundation
<03245> (8762)

thereof in his firstborn
<01060>_,

and in his youngest
<06810>

[son] shall he set up
<05324> (8686)

the gates
<01817>

of it.

6:27

So the LORD
<03068>

was with Joshua
<03091>_;

and his fame
<08089>

was [noised] throughout all the country
<0776>_.
