Joshua 4:10-13

The Voice

¹⁰ The priests who carried the chest stood in the Jordan until all the people had hurried across, until all had been accomplished that the Eternal and Moses had commanded Joshua to tell the people.

¹¹ Only then, when all of the people had passed, did the priests bearing the chest of the Eternal cross over into the presence of the people.

^12-13 On the western side of the Jordan stood about 40,000 men ready for battle, including fighters from the people of Reuben and Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh who had crossed onto the plains of Jericho in the presence of the Eternal, as they had been commanded by Moses.
