Joshua 3:3-5

New Century Version

³ and gave orders to the people: “When you see the priests and Levites carrying the Ark of the Agreement with the Lord your God, leave where you are and follow it. ⁴ That way you will know which way to go since you have never been here before. But do not follow too closely. Stay about a thousand yards behind the Ark.”

⁵ Then Joshua told the people, “Make yourselves holy, because tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.”
