Joshua 7:9-11

EasyEnglish Bible

⁹ The Canaanites and the other tribes who live in this land will hear about what has happened. They will come to attack us and they will completely destroy us all. If that happens, nobody will ever respect your great name again!’

¹⁰ The Lord said to Joshua, ‘Stand up! Why are you lying there on the ground? ¹¹ Israel has done a bad thing. They have not obeyed the command of the covenant that I made with them. That have taken for themselves some of the valuable things that belong to me. They have taken them and they have tried to deceive me. They have hidden them among their own things.
