7. They said to the people, “Advance! March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the Lord’s ark.”
8. It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven shofars of rams’ horns before the Lord advanced and blew the shofars, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant followed them.
9. The armed men went before the priests who blew the shofars, and the ark went after them. The shofars sounded as they went.
10. Joshua commanded the people, saying, “You shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout.”
11. So he caused the Lord’s ark to go around the city, circling it once. Then they came into the camp, and stayed in the camp.
