约书亚另把十二块石头立在约旦河中，在抬约柜的祭司脚站立的地方。直到今日，那石头还在那里。
And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day.
抬约柜的祭司站在约旦河中，等到耶和华晓谕约书亚吩咐百姓的事办完了，是照摩西所吩咐约书亚的一切话。于是百姓急速过去了。
For the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of Jordan, until everything was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua: and the people hasted and passed over.
约有四万人都准备打仗，在耶和华面前过去，到耶利哥的平原，等候上阵。
About forty thousand prepared for war passed over before the LORD unto battle, to the plains of Jericho.
当那日，耶和华使约书亚在以色列众人眼前尊大。在他平生的日子，百姓敬畏他，像从前敬畏摩西一样。
On that day the LORD magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.
耶和华晓谕约书亚说，
And the LORD spake unto Joshua, saying,
抬耶和华约柜的祭司从约旦河里上来，脚掌刚落旱地，约旦河的水就流到原处，仍旧涨过两岸。
And it came to pass, when the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD were come up out of the midst of Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up unto the dry land, that the waters of Jordan returned unto their place, and flowed over all his banks, as they did before.
正月初十日，百姓从约旦河里上来，就在吉甲，在耶利哥的东边安营。
And the people came up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, in the east border of Jericho.
他们从约旦河中取来的那十二块石头，约书亚就立在吉甲，
And those twelve stones, which they took out of Jordan, did Joshua pitch in Gilgal.
对以色列人说，日后你们的子孙问他们的父亲说，这些石头是什么意思。
And he spake unto the children of Israel, saying, When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones?
因为耶和华你们的神在你们前面使约旦河的水乾了，等着你们过来，就如耶和华你们的神从前在我们前面使红海乾了，等着我们过来一样，
For the LORD your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were gone over:
