10And the priests carrying the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan until everything was finished that Yahweh had commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. And the people hurried and crossed over.

11And when all the people had finished crossing over, the ark of Yahweh and the priests crossed over before the people.

12And the sons of Reuben, the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh crossed over armed before the sons of Israel, just as Moses had spoken to them.

13About forty thousand armed for war crossed over before Yahweh for battle, to the plains of Jericho.

14On that day Yahweh made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel, and they feared him just as they had feared Moses all the days of his life.
