06:004:015 And the lord spake unto Joshua, saying,

06:004:016 Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony, that
           they come up out of Jordan.

06:004:017 Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out
           of Jordan.

06:004:018 And it came to pass, when the priests that bare the ark of the
           covenant of the lord were come up out of the midst of Jordan,
           and the soles of the priests’ feet were lifted up unto the dry
           land, that the waters of Jordan returned unto their place, and
           flowed over all his banks, as they did before.

06:004:019 And the people came up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the
           first month, and encamped in Gilgal, in the east border of
           Jericho.

06:004:020 And those twelve stones, which they took out of Jordan, did
           Joshua pitch in Gilgal.

06:004:021 And he spake unto the children of Israel, saying, When your
           children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What
           mean these stones?

06:004:022 Then ye shall let your children know, saying, Israel came over
           this Jordan on dry land.

06:004:023 For the lord your God dried up the waters of Jordan from
           before you, until ye were passed over, as the lord your God
           did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we
           were gone over: 

06:004:024 That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the
           lord, that it is mighty:  that ye might fear the lord your God
           for ever.

06:005:001 And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, which
           were on the side of Jordan westward, and all the kings of the
           Canaanites, which were by the sea, heard that the lord had
           dried up the waters of Jordan from before the children of
           Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted,
           neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the
           children of Israel.

06:005:002 At that time the lord said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp
           knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second
           time.

06:005:003 And Joshua made him sharp knives, and circumcised the children
           of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.

06:005:004 And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise:  All the
           people that came out of Egypt, that were males, even all the
           men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came
           out of Egypt.

06:005:005 Now all the people that came out were circumcised:  but all the
           people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they
           came forth out of Egypt, them they had not circumcised.
