Joshua 3:3-5

Common English Bible

³ They commanded the people, “As soon as you see the Lord your God’s chest containing the covenant and the levitical priests carrying it, you are to march out from your places and follow it. ⁴ But let there be some distance between you and it, about three thousand feet. Don’t come near it! You will know the way you should go, even though you’ve never traveled this way before.”

⁵ Joshua said to the people, “Make yourselves holy! Tomorrow the Lord will do wonderful things among you.”
