14. On that day Jehovah magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they had feared Moses, all the days of his life.
15. And Jehovah spoke to Joshua, saying,
16. Command the priests who bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.
17. And Joshua commanded the priests, saying, Come up out of the Jordan.
18. And it came to pass when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah had come up out of the midst of the Jordan, when the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on to the dry land, that the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and they flowed as previously, over all its banks.
19. And the people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the eastern extremity of Jericho.
20. And those twelve stones which they had taken out of the Jordan did Joshua set up in Gilgal.
21. And he spoke to the children of Israel, saying, When your children hereafter ask their fathers, saying, What mean these stones?
