(א) וַיַּשְׁכֵּם יְהוֹשֻׁעַ בַּבֹּקֶר וַיִּסְעוּ מֵהַשִּׁטִּים וַיָּבֹאוּ עַד הַיַּרְדֵּן הוּא וְכׇל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּלִנוּ שָׁם טֶרֶם יַעֲבֹרוּ. (ב) וַיְהִי מִקְצֵה שְׁלֹשֶׁת יָמִים וַיַּעַבְרוּ הַשֹּׁטְרִים בְּקֶרֶב הַמַּחֲנֶה. (ג) וַיְצַוּוּ אֶת הָעָם לֵאמֹר כִּרְאֹתְכֶם אֵת אֲרוֹן בְּרִית י״י אֱלֹהֵיכֶם וְהַכֹּהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם נֹשְׂאִים אֹתוֹ וְאַתֶּם תִּסְעוּ מִמְּקוֹמְכֶם וַהֲלַכְתֶּם אַחֲרָיו. (ד) אַךְ רָחוֹק יִהְיֶה בֵּינֵיכֶם וּבֵנָיו כְּאַלְפַּיִם אַמָּה בַּמִּדָּה אַל תִּקְרְבוּ אֵלָיו לְמַעַן אֲשֶׁר תֵּדְעוּ אֶת הַדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר תֵּלְכוּ בָהּ כִּי לֹא עֲבַרְתֶּם בַּדֶּרֶךְ מִתְּמוֹל שִׁלְשׁוֹם. (ה) וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶל הָעָם הִתְקַדָּשׁוּ כִּי מָחָר יַעֲשֶׂה י״י בְּקִרְבְּכֶם נִפְלָאוֹת. (ו) וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶל הַכֹּהֲנִים לֵאמֹר שְׂאוּ אֶת אֲרוֹן הַבְּרִית וְעִבְרוּ לִפְנֵי הָעָם וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֶת אֲרוֹן הַבְּרִית וַיֵּלְכוּ לִפְנֵי הָעָם. (ז) וַיֹּאמֶר י״י אֶל יְהוֹשֻׁעַ הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה אָחֵל גַּדֶּלְךָ בְּעֵינֵי כׇּל יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר יֵדְעוּן כִּי כַּאֲשֶׁר הָיִיתִי עִם מֹשֶׁה אֶהְיֶה עִמָּךְ. (ח) וְאַתָּה תְּצַוֶּה אֶת הַכֹּהֲנִים נֹשְׂאֵי אֲרוֹן הַבְּרִית לֵאמֹר כְּבֹאֲכֶם עַד קְצֵה מֵי הַיַּרְדֵּן בַּיַּרְדֵּן תַּעֲמֹדוּ. (ט) וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אֶל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל גֹּשׁוּ הֵנָּה וְשִׁמְעוּ אֶת דִּבְרֵי י״י אֱלֹהֵיכֶם. (י) וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁעַ בְּזֹאת תֵּדְעוּן כִּי אֵל חַי בְּקִרְבְּכֶם וְהוֹרֵשׁ יוֹרִישׁ מִפְּנֵיכֶם אֶת הַכְּנַעֲנִי וְאֶת הַחִתִּי וְאֶת הַחִוִּי וְאֶת הַפְּרִזִּי וְאֶת הַגִּרְגָּשִׁי וְהָאֱמֹרִי וְהַיְבוּסִי. (יא) הִנֵּה אֲרוֹן הַבְּרִית אֲדוֹן כׇּל הָאָרֶץ עֹבֵר לִפְנֵיכֶם בַּיַּרְדֵּן. (יב) וְעַתָּה קְחוּ לָכֶם שְׁנֵי עָשָׂר אִישׁ מִשִּׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אִישׁ אֶחָד אִישׁ אֶחָד לַשָּׁבֶט. (יג) וְהָיָה כְּנוֹחַ כַּפּוֹת רַגְלֵי הַכֹּהֲנִים נֹשְׂאֵי אֲרוֹן י״י אֲדוֹן כׇּל הָאָרֶץ בְּמֵי הַיַּרְדֵּן מֵי הַיַּרְדֵּן יִכָּרֵתוּן הַמַּיִם הַיֹּרְדִים מִלְמָעְלָה וְיַעַמְדוּ נֵד אֶחָד. (יד) וַיְהִי בִּנְסֹעַ הָעָם מֵאׇהֳלֵיהֶם לַעֲבֹר אֶת הַיַּרְדֵּן וְהַכֹּהֲנִים נֹשְׂאֵי הָאָרוֹן הַבְּרִית לִפְנֵי הָעָם. (טו) וּכְבוֹא נֹשְׂאֵי הָאָרוֹן עַד הַיַּרְדֵּן וְרַגְלֵי הַכֹּהֲנִים נֹשְׂאֵי הָאָרוֹן נִטְבְּלוּ בִּקְצֵה הַמָּיִם וְהַיַּרְדֵּן מָלֵא עַל כׇּל גְּדוֹתָיו כֹּל יְמֵי קָצִיר. (טז) וַיַּעַמְדוּ הַמַּיִם הַיֹּרְדִים מִלְמַעְלָה קָמוּ נֵד אֶחָד הַרְחֵק מְאֹד [מֵאָדָם] (באדם) הָעִיר אֲשֶׁר מִצַּד צָרְתָן וְהַיֹּרְדִים עַל יָם הָעֲרָבָה יָם הַמֶּלַח תַּמּוּ נִכְרָתוּ וְהָעָם עָבְרוּ נֶגֶד יְרִיחוֹ. (יז) וַיַּעַמְדוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים נֹשְׂאֵי הָאָרוֹן בְּרִית י״י בֶּחָרָבָה בְּתוֹךְ הַיַּרְדֵּן הָכֵן וְכׇל יִשְׂרָאֵל עֹבְרִים בֶּחָרָבָה עַד אֲשֶׁר תַּמּוּ כׇּל הַגּוֹי לַעֲבֹר אֶת הַיַּרְדֵּן.

(1) And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and they traveled from Shittim, and came to the Jordan, he and all the Children of Israel; and they lodged there before they passed over. (2) And it came to pass after three days, that the officers went through the midst of the camp, (3) and they commanded the people, saying, "When you see the ark of the covenant of Hashem your God and the priests the Levites bearing it, then you shall travel from your place and go after it. (4) Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure; do not come near to it, that you may know the way by which you must go, for you have not passed this way until now." (5) And Joshua said to the people, "Sanctify yourselves, for tomorrow Hashem will do wonders among you." (6) And Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, "Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass on before the people." And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people. (7) And Hashem said to Joshua, "This day will I begin to magnify you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. (8) And you shall command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, 'When you come to the brink of the waters of the Jordan, you shall stand still in the Jordan.'" (9) And Joshua said to the Children of Israel, "Come here, and hear the words of Hashem your God." (10) And Joshua said, "Hereby you shall know that the living God is among you, and that He will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Hivite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite. (11) Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Master of all the earth passes on before you over the Jordan. (12) Now therefore take twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, for every tribe a man. (13) And it shall come to pass, when the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of Hashem, Master of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand in one heap." (14) And it came to pass, when the people traveled from their tents to pass over the Jordan, the priests that bore the ark of the covenant were before the people. (15) And when they that bore the ark came to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark dipped in the brink of the water — for the Jordan overflows all its banks all the time of harvest — (16) that the waters which came down from above stood and rose up in one heap, a great way off from Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those that went down toward the sea of the Arabah, even the Salt Sea, were wholly cut off, and the people passed over right against Jericho. (17) And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of Hashem stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, while all Israel passed over on dry ground, until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.
