Joshua 4:16-22
English Standard Version
Chapter 4
16"Command the priests bearing the ark of the testimony to come up out of the Jordan." 17So Joshua commanded the priests, "Come up out of the Jordan." 18And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord came up from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests ' feet were lifted up on dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks, as before.
19The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and they encamped at Gilgal on the east border of Jericho.
20And those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, Joshua set up at Gilgal.
21And he said to the people of Israel, "When your children ask their fathers in times to come, ‘What do these stones mean?’
22then you shall let your children know, ‘Israel passed over this Jordan on dry ground.’
