Joshua 3:3-5

Contemporary English Version

^3-4 shouting, “When you see some of the priests^[a] carrying the sacred chest, you'll know it is time to cross to the other side. You've never been there before, and you won't know the way, unless you follow the chest. But don't get too close! Stay about a kilometer back.”

⁵ Joshua told the people, “Make yourselves acceptable^[b] to worship the Lord, because he is going to do some amazing things for us.”
