Make sure you keep a proper distance between you and it, about half a mile--be sure now to keep your distance!-and you'll see clearly the route to take. You've never been on this road before."

Josh.3.11

Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth over before you into Jordan.

Josh.3.11

Look at what's before you: the Chest of the Covenant. Think of it--the Master of the entire earth is crossing the Jordan as you watch.

Josh.3.11

See, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth will go into the Jordan ahead of you.

Josh.3.11

Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is crossing over before you into the Jordan.

Josh.3.11

Think of it! The Ark of the Covenant, which belongs to the Lord of the whole earth, will lead you across the Jordan River!

Josh.3.12

Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, out of every tribe a man.

Josh.3.12

Now take twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man from each tribe.

Josh.3.12

Now then, choose twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe.

Josh.3.12

Now therefore, take for yourselves twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man from every tribe.

Josh.3.12

Now choose twelve men, one from each tribe.

Josh.3.13

And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, that the waters of Jordan shall be cut off from the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand upon an heap.

Josh.3.13

When the soles of the feet of the priests carrying the Chest of GOD, Master of all the earth, touch the Jordan's water, the flow of water will be stopped--the water coming from upstream will pile up in a heap."

Josh.3.13

And as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the LORD -the Lord of all the earth-set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream will be cut off and stand up in a heap."

Josh.3.13

And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests who bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, the waters that come down from upstream, and they shall stand as a heap."

Josh.3.13

The priests will be carrying the Ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth. When their feet touch the water, the flow of water will be cut off upstream, and the river will pile up there in one heap."

Josh.3.14

And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;

Josh.3.14

And that's what happened. The people left their tents to cross the Jordan, led by the priests carrying the Chest of the Covenant.

Josh.3.14

So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant went ahead of them.

Josh.3.14

So it was, when the people set out from their camp to cross over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,

Josh.3.14

When the people set out to cross the Jordan, the priests who were carrying the Ark of the Covenant went ahead of them.

Josh.3.15

And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,)

Josh.3.15

When the priests got to the Jordan and their feet touched the water at the edge (the Jordan overflows its banks throughout the harvest),

Josh.3.15

Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water's edge,

Josh.3.15

and as those who bore the ark came to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests who bore the ark dipped in the edge of the water (for the Jordan overflows all its banks during the whole time of harvest),

Josh.3.15

Now it was the harvest season, and the Jordan was overflowing its banks. But as soon as the feet of the priests who were carrying the Ark touched the water at the river's edge,

Josh.3.16

That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.

Josh.3.16

the flow of water stopped. It piled up in a heap--a long way off--at Adam, which is near Zarethan. The river went dry all the way down to the Arabah Sea (the Salt Sea). And the people crossed, facing Jericho.

Josh.3.16

the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan, while the water flowing down to the Sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea ) was completely cut off. So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.

Josh.3.16

that the waters which came down from upstream stood still, and rose in a heap very far away at Adam, the city that is beside Zaretan. So the waters that went down into the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, failed, and were cut off; and the people crossed over opposite Jericho.

Josh.3.16

the water began piling up at a town upstream called Adam, which is near Zarethan. And the water below that point flowed on to the Dead Sea until the riverbed was dry. Then all the people crossed over near the city of Jericho.

Josh.3.17

And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.

Josh.3.17

And there they stood; those priests carrying the Chest of the Covenant stood firmly planted on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel crossed on dry ground. Finally the whole nation was across the Jordan, and not one wet foot.

Josh.3.17

The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan, while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.

Josh.3.17

Then the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan; and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the people had crossed completely over the Jordan.

Josh.3.17

Meanwhile, the priests who were carrying the Ark of the LORD's covenant stood on dry ground in the middle of the riverbed as the people passed by them. They waited there until everyone had crossed the Jordan on dry ground.

Josh.4.1

And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan, that the LORD spake unto Joshua, saying,

Josh.4.1

When the whole nation was finally across, GOD spoke to Joshua:

Josh.4.1

When the whole nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the LORD said to Joshua,

Josh.4.1

And it came to pass, when all the people had completely crossed over the Jordan, that the LORD spoke to Joshua, saying:

Josh.4.1

When all the people were safely across the river, the LORD said to Joshua,

Josh.4.2

Take you twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man,

Josh.4.2

"Select twelve men from the people, a man from each tribe,

Josh.4.2

"Choose twelve men from among the people, one from each tribe,

Josh.4.2

"Take for yourselves twelve men from the people, one man from every tribe,

Josh.4.2

"Now choose twelve men, one from each tribe.

Josh.4.3

And command ye them, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging place, where ye shall lodge this night.

Josh.4.3

and tell them, "From right here, the middle of the Jordan where the feet of the priests are standing firm, take twelve stones. Carry them across with you and set them down in the place where you camp tonight.'"

Josh.4.3

and tell them to take up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan from right where the priests stood and to carry them over with you and put them down at the place where you stay tonight."

Josh.4.3

and command them, saying, "Take for yourselves twelve stones from here, out of the midst of the Jordan, from the place where the priests' feet stood firm. You shall carry them over with you and leave them in the lodging place where you lodge tonight."'

Josh.4.3

Tell the men to take twelve stones from where the priests are standing in the middle of the Jordan and pile them up at the place where you camp tonight."

Josh.4.4

Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, out of every tribe a man:

Josh.4.4

Joshua called out the twelve men whom he selected from the People of Israel, one man from each tribe.

Josh.4.4

So Joshua called together the twelve men he had appointed from the Israelites, one from each tribe,

Josh.4.4

Then Joshua called the twelve men whom he had appointed from the children of Israel, one man from every tribe;

Josh.4.4

So Joshua called together the twelve men

Josh.4.5

And Joshua said unto them, Pass over before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of Jordan, and take ye up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel:

Josh.4.5

Joshua directed them, "Cross to the middle of the Jordan and take your place in front of the Chest of GOD, your God. Each of you heft a stone to your shoulder, a stone for each of the tribes of the People of Israel,

Josh.4.5

and said to them, "Go over before the ark of the LORD your God into the middle of the Jordan. Each of you is to take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites,

Josh.4.5

and Joshua said to them: "Cross over before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of the Jordan, and each one of you take up a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel,

Josh.4.5

and told them, "Go into the middle of the Jordan, in front of the Ark of the LORD your God. Each of you must pick up one stone and carry it out on your shoulder--twelve stones in all, one for each of the twelve tribes.

Josh.4.6

That this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones?

Josh.4.6

so you'll have something later to mark the occasion. When your children ask you, "What are these stones to you?'

Josh.4.6

to serve as a sign among you. In the future, when your children ask you, 'What do these stones mean?'

Josh.4.6

that this may be a sign among you when your children ask in time to come, saying, "What do these stones mean to you?'

Josh.4.6

We will use these stones to build a memorial. In the future, your children will ask, `What do these stones mean to you?'

Josh.4.7

Then ye shall answer them, That the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it passed over Jordan, the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever.

Josh.4.7

you'll say, "The flow of the Jordan was stopped in front of the Chest of the Covenant of GOD as it crossed the Jordan--stopped in its tracks. These stones are a permanent memorial for the People of Israel.'"

Josh.4.7

tell them that the flow of the Jordan was cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD. When it crossed the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. These stones are to be a memorial to the people of Israel forever."

Josh.4.7

Then you shall answer them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it crossed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. And these stones shall be for a memorial to the children of Israel forever."

Josh.4.7

Then you can tell them, `They remind us that the Jordan River stopped flowing when the Ark of the LORD's covenant went across.' These stones will stand as a permanent memorial among the people of Israel."

Josh.4.8

And the children of Israel did so as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, as the LORD spake unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

Josh.4.8

The People of Israel did exactly as Joshua commanded: They took twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan--a stone for each of the twelve tribes, just as GOD had instructed Joshua--carried them across with them to the camp, and set them down there.

Josh.4.8

So the Israelites did as Joshua commanded them. They took twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites, as the LORD had told Joshua; and they carried them over with them to their camp, where they put them down.

Josh.4.8

And the children of Israel did so, just as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones from the midst of the Jordan, as the LORD had spoken to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carried them over with them to the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

Josh.4.8

So the men did as Joshua told them. They took twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan River, one for each tribe, just as the LORD had commanded Joshua. They carried them to the place where they camped for the night and constructed the memorial there.

Josh.4.9

And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day.

Josh.4.9

Joshua set up the twelve stones taken from the middle of the Jordan that had marked the place where the priests who carried the Chest of the Covenant had stood. They are still there today.

Josh.4.9

Joshua set up the twelve stones that had been in the middle of the Jordan at the spot where the priests who carried the ark of the covenant had stood. And they are there to this day.

Josh.4.9

Then Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant stood; and they are there to this day.

Josh.4.9

Joshua also built another memorial of twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan, at the place where the priests who carried the Ark of the Covenant were standing. The memorial remains there to this day.

Josh.4.10

For the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of Jordan, until every thing was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua: and the people hasted and passed over.

Josh.4.10

The priests carrying the Chest continued standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything GOD had instructed Joshua to tell the people to do was done (confirming what Moses had instructed Joshua). The people crossed; no one dawdled.

Josh.4.10

Now the priests who carried the ark remained standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything the LORD had commanded Joshua was done by the people, just as Moses had directed Joshua. The people hurried over,

Josh.4.10

So the priests who bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan until everything was finished that the LORD had commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua; and the people hurried and crossed over.

Josh.4.10

The priests who were carrying the Ark stood in the middle of the river until all of the LORD's instructions, which Moses had given to Joshua, were carried out. Meanwhile, the people hurried across the riverbed.

Josh.4.11

And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over, that the ark of the LORD passed over, and the priests, in the presence of the people.

Josh.4.11

When the crossing of all the people was complete, they watched as the Chest of the Covenant and the priests crossed over.

Josh.4.11

and as soon as all of them had crossed, the ark of the LORD and the priests came to the other side while the people watched.

Josh.4.11

Then it came to pass, when all the people had completely crossed over, that the ark of the LORD and the priests crossed over in the presence of the people.

Josh.4.11

And when everyone was on the other side, the priests crossed over with the Ark of the LORD.

Josh.4.12

And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh, passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spake unto them:

Josh.4.12

The Reubenites, Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh had crossed over in battle formation in front of the People of Israel, obedient to Moses' instructions.

Josh.4.12

The men of Reuben, Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh crossed over, armed, in front of the Israelites, as Moses had directed them.

Josh.4.12

And the men of Reuben, the men of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh crossed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses had spoken to them.

Josh.4.12

The armed warriors from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh led the Israelites across the Jordan, just as Moses had directed.

Josh.4.13

About forty thousand prepared for war passed over before the LORD unto battle, to the plains of Jericho.

Josh.4.13

All told, about 40,000 armed soldiers crossed over before GOD to the plains of Jericho, ready for battle.

Josh.4.13

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

Josh.4.13

About forty thousand prepared for war crossed over before the LORD for battle, to the plains of Jericho.

Josh.4.13

These warriors--about forty thousand strong--were ready for battle, and they crossed over to the plains of Jericho in the LORD's presence.

Josh.4.14

On that day the LORD magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.

Josh.4.14

GOD made Joshua great that day in the sight of all Israel. They were in awe of him just as they had been in awe of Moses all his life. [JC]

Josh.4.14

That day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they revered him all the days of his life, just as they had revered Moses.

Josh.4.14

On that day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they had feared Moses, all the days of his life.

Josh.4.14

That day the LORD made Joshua great in the eyes of all the Israelites, and for the rest of his life they revered him as much as they had revered Moses.

Josh.4.15

And the LORD spake unto Joshua, saying,

Josh.4.15

GOD told Joshua,

Josh.4.15

Then the LORD said to Joshua,

Josh.4.15

Then the LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,

Josh.4.15

The LORD had said to Joshua,

Josh.4.16

Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of Jordan.

Josh.4.16

"Command the priests carrying the Chest of the Testimony to come up from the Jordan."

Josh.4.16

"Command the priests carrying the ark of the Testimony to come up out of the Jordan."

Josh.4.16

"Command the priests who bear the ark of the Testimony to come up from the Jordan."

Josh.4.16

"Command the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant to come up out of the riverbed."

Josh.4.17

Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out of Jordan.

Josh.4.17

Joshua commanded the priests, "Come up out of the Jordan."

Josh.4.17

So Joshua commanded the priests, "Come up out of the Jordan."

Josh.4.17

Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, "Come up from the Jordan."

Josh.4.17

So Joshua gave the command.

Josh.4.18

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.

Josh.4.18

They did it. The priests carrying GOD's Chest of the Covenant came up from the middle of the Jordan. As soon as the soles of the priests' feet touched dry land, the Jordan's waters resumed their flow within the banks, just as before.

Josh.4.18

And the priests came up out of the river carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD. No sooner had they set their feet on the dry ground than the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and ran at flood stage as before.

Josh.4.18

And it came to pass, when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD had come from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet touched the dry land, that the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks as before.

Josh.4.18

And as soon as the priests carrying the Ark of the LORD's covenant came up out of the riverbed, the Jordan River flooded its banks as before.

Josh.4.19

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.

Josh.4.19

The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month. They set up camp at The Gilgal (The Circle) to the east of Jericho.

Josh.4.19

On the tenth day of the first month the people went up from the Jordan and camped at Gilgal on the eastern border of Jericho.

Josh.4.19

Now the people came up from the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and they camped in Gilgal on the east border of Jericho.

Josh.4.19

The people crossed the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month--the month that marked their exodus from Egypt. They camped at Gilgal, east of Jericho.

Josh.4.20

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

Josh.4.20

Joshua erected a monument at The Gilgal, using the twelve stones that they had taken from the Jordan.

Josh.4.20

And Joshua set up at Gilgal the twelve stones they had taken out of the Jordan.

Josh.4.20

And those twelve stones which they took out of the Jordan, Joshua set up in Gilgal.

Josh.4.20

It was there at Gilgal that Joshua piled up the twelve stones taken from the Jordan River.

Josh.4.21

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?

Josh.4.21

And then he told the People of Israel, "In the days to come, when your children ask their fathers, "What are these stones doing here?'

Josh.4.21

He said to the Israelites, "In the future when your descendants ask their fathers, 'What do these stones mean?'

Josh.4.21

Then he spoke to the children of Israel, saying: "When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, "What are these stones?'

Josh.4.21

Then Joshua said to the Israelites, "In the future, your children will ask, `What do these stones mean?'

Josh.4.22

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

Josh.4.22

tell your children this: "Israel crossed over this Jordan on dry ground.'

Josh.4.22

tell them, 'Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.'

Josh.4.22

then you shall let your children know, saying, "Israel crossed over this Jordan on dry land';

Josh.4.22

Then you can tell them, `This is where the Israelites crossed the Jordan on dry ground.'

Josh.4.23

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:

Josh.4.23

"Yes, GOD, your God, dried up the Jordan's waters for you until you had crossed, just as GOD, your God, did at the Red Sea, which had dried up before us until we had crossed.

Josh.4.23

For the LORD your God dried up the Jordan before you until you had crossed over. The LORD your God did to the Jordan just what he had done to the Red Sea when he dried it up before us until we had crossed over.

Josh.4.23

for the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed over,

Josh.4.23

For the LORD your God dried up the river right before your eyes, and he kept it dry until you were all across, just as he did at the Red Sea when he dried it up until we had all crossed over.

Josh.4.24

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.

Josh.4.24

This was so that everybody on earth would recognize how strong GOD's rescuing hand is and so that you would hold GOD in solemn reverence always." [JC]

Josh.4.24

He did this so that all the peoples of the earth might know that the hand of the LORD is powerful and so that you might always fear the LORD your God."

Josh.4.24

that all the peoples of the earth may know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty, that you may fear the LORD your God forever."

Josh.4.24

He did this so that all the nations of the earth might know the power of the LORD, and that you might fear the LORD your God forever."

Josh.5.1

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.

Josh.5.1

When all the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and the Canaanite kings along the seacoast heard how GOD had stopped the Jordan River before the People of Israel until they had crossed over, their hearts sank; the courage drained out of them just thinking about the People of Israel.

Josh.5.1

Now when all the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and all the Canaanite kings along the coast heard how the LORD had dried up the Jordan before the Israelites until we had crossed over, their hearts melted and they no longer had the courage to face the Israelites.

Josh.5.1

So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, that their heart melted; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel.

Josh.5.1

When all the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and all the Canaanite kings who lived along the Mediterranean coast heard how the LORD had dried up the Jordan River so the people of Israel could cross, they lost heart and were paralyzed with fear.

Josh.5.2

At that time the LORD said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.

Josh.5.2

At that time GOD said to Joshua, "Make stone knives and circumcise the People of Israel a second time."

Josh.5.2

At that time the LORD said to Joshua, "Make flint knives and circumcise the Israelites again."

Josh.5.2

At that time the LORD said to Joshua, "Make flint knives for yourself, and circumcise the sons of Israel again the second time."

Josh.5.2

At that time the LORD told Joshua, "Use knives of flint to make the Israelites a circumcised people again."

Josh.5.3

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

Josh.5.3

So Joshua made stone knives and circumcised the People of Israel at Foreskins Hill.

Josh.5.3

So Joshua made flint knives and circumcised the Israelites at Gibeath Haaraloth.

Josh.5.3

So Joshua made flint knives for himself, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.

Josh.5.3

So Joshua made flint knives and circumcised the entire male population of Israel at Gibeath-haaraloth.

Josh.5.4

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.

Josh.5.4

This is why Joshua conducted the circumcision. All the males who had left Egypt, the soldiers, had died in the wilderness on the journey out of Egypt.

Josh.5.4

Now this is why he did so: All those who came out of Egypt-all the men of military age-died in the desert on the way after leaving Egypt.

Josh.5.4

And this is the reason why Joshua circumcised them: All the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way, after they had come out of Egypt.

Josh.5.4

Joshua had to circumcise them because all the men who were old enough to bear arms when they left Egypt had died in the wilderness.

Josh.5.5

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.

Josh.5.5

All the people who had come out of Egypt, of course, had been circumcised, but all those born in the wilderness along the way since leaving Egypt had not been.

Josh.5.5

All the people that came out had been circumcised, but all the people born in the desert during the journey from Egypt had not.

Josh.5.5

For all the people who came out had been circumcised, but all the people born in the wilderness, on the way as they came out of Egypt, had not been circumcised.

Josh.5.5

Those who left Egypt had all been circumcised, but none of those born after the Exodus, during the years in the wilderness, had been circumcised.

Josh.5.6

For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people that were men of war, which came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: unto whom the LORD sware that he would not shew them the land, which the LORD sware unto their fathers that he would give us, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

Josh.5.6

The fact is that the People of Israel had walked through that wilderness for forty years until the entire nation died out, all the men of military age who had come out of Egypt but had disobeyed the call of GOD. GOD vowed that these would never lay eyes on the land GOD had solemnly promised their ancestors to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

Josh.5.6

The Israelites had moved about in the desert forty years until all the men who were of military age when they left Egypt had died, since they had not obeyed the LORD. For the LORD had sworn to them that they would not see the land that he had solemnly promised their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

Josh.5.6

For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the voice of the LORD--to whom the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, "a land flowing with milk and honey."

Josh.5.6

The Israelites wandered in the wilderness for forty years until all the men who were old enough to bear arms when they left Egypt had died. For they had disobeyed the LORD, and the LORD vowed he would not let them enter the land he had sworn to give us--a land flowing with milk and honey.

Josh.5.7

And their children, whom he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them by the way.

Josh.5.7

But their children had replaced them. These are the ones Joshua circumcised. They had never been circumcised; no one had circumcised them along the way.

Josh.5.7

So he raised up their sons in their place, and these were the ones Joshua circumcised. They were still uncircumcised because they had not been circumcised on the way.

Josh.5.7

Then Joshua circumcised their sons whom He raised up in their place; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the way.

Josh.5.7

So Joshua circumcised their sons who had not been circumcised on the way to the Promised Land--those who had grown up to take their fathers' places.

Josh.5.8

And it came to pass, when they had done circumcising all the people, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were whole.

Josh.5.8

When they had completed the circumcising of the whole nation, they stayed where they were in camp until they were healed.

Josh.5.8

And after the whole nation had been circumcised, they remained where they were in camp until they were healed.

Josh.5.8

So it was, when they had finished circumcising all the people, that they stayed in their places in the camp till they were healed.

Josh.5.8

After all the males had been circumcised, they rested in the camp until they were healed.

Josh.5.9

And the LORD said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of the place is called Gilgal unto this day.

Josh.5.9

GOD said to Joshua, "Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt." That's why the place is called The Gilgal. It's still called that. [JC]

Josh.5.9

Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you." So the place has been called Gilgal to this day.

Josh.5.9

Then the LORD said to Joshua, "This day I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you." Therefore the name of the place is called Gilgal to this day.

Josh.5.9

Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Today I have rolled away the shame of your slavery in Egypt." So that place has been called Gilgal to this day.

Josh.5.10

And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.

Josh.5.10

The People of Israel continued to camp at The Gilgal. They celebrated the Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month on the plains of Jericho.

Josh.5.10

On the evening of the fourteenth day of the month, while camped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, the Israelites celebrated the Passover.

Josh.5.10

Now the children of Israel camped in Gilgal, and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight on the plains of Jericho.

Josh.5.10

While the Israelites were camped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, they celebrated Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the first month--the month that marked their exodus from Egypt.

Josh.5.11

And they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame day.

Josh.5.11

Right away, the day after the Passover, they started eating the produce of that country, unraised bread and roasted grain.

Josh.5.11

The day after the Passover, that very day, they ate some of the produce of the land: unleavened bread and roasted grain.

Josh.5.11

And they ate of the produce of the land on the day after the Passover, unleavened bread and parched grain, on the very same day.

Josh.5.11

The very next day they began to eat unleavened bread and roasted grain harvested from the land.

Josh.5.12

And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.

Josh.5.12

And then no more manna; the manna stopped. As soon as they started eating food grown in the land, there was no more manna for the People of Israel. That year they ate from the crops of Canaan. [JC]

Josh.5.12

The manna stopped the day after they ate this food from the land; there was no longer any manna for the Israelites, but that year they ate of the produce of Canaan.

Josh.5.12

Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year.

Josh.5.12

No manna appeared that day, and it was never seen again. So from that time on the Israelites ate from the crops of Canaan.

Luke.22.1-Luke.22.38

Luke.22.1

Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

Luke.22.1

The Feast of Unleavened Bread, also called Passover, drew near.

Luke.22.1

Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,

Luke.22.1

Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called Passover.

Luke.22.1

The Festival of Unleavened Bread, which begins with the Passover celebration, was drawing near.

Luke.22.2

And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

Luke.22.2

The high priests and religion scholars were looking for a way to do away with Jesus but, fearful of the people, they were also looking for a way to cover their tracks.

Luke.22.2

and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.

Luke.22.2

And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.

Luke.22.2

The leading priests and teachers of religious law were actively plotting Jesus' murder. But they wanted to kill him without starting a riot, a possibility they greatly feared.

Luke.22.3

Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

Luke.22.3

That's when Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot. He was one of the Twelve.

Luke.22.3

Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve.

Luke.22.3

Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the twelve.

Luke.22.3

Then Satan entered into Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve disciples,

Luke.22.4

And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

Luke.22.4

Leaving the others, he conferred with the high priests and the Temple guards about how he might betray Jesus to them.

Luke.22.4

And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus.

Luke.22.4

So he went his way and conferred with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them.

Luke.22.4

and he went over to the leading priests and captains of the Temple guard to discuss the best way to betray Jesus to them.

Luke.22.5

And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

Luke.22.5

They couldn't believe their good luck and agreed to pay him well.

Luke.22.5

They were delighted and agreed to give him money.

Luke.22.5

And they were glad, and agreed to give him money.

Luke.22.5

They were delighted that he was ready to help them, and they promised him a reward.

Luke.22.6

And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

Luke.22.6

He gave them his word and started looking for a way to betray Jesus, but out of sight of the crowd.

Luke.22.6

He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.

Luke.22.6

So he promised and sought opportunity to betray Him to them in the absence of the multitude.

Luke.22.6

So he began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus so they could arrest him quietly when the crowds weren't around.

Luke.22.7

Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

Luke.22.7

The Day of Unleavened Bread came, the day the Passover lamb was butchered.

Luke.22.7

Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

Luke.22.7

Then came the Day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be killed.

Luke.22.7

Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lambs were sacrificed.

Luke.22.8

And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

Luke.22.8

Jesus sent Peter and John off, saying, "Go prepare the Passover for us so we can eat it together."

Luke.22.8

Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover."

Luke.22.8

And He sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat."

Luke.22.8

Jesus sent Peter and John ahead and said, "Go and prepare the Passover meal, so we can eat it together."

Luke.22.9

And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?

Luke.22.9

They said, "Where do you want us to do this?"

Luke.22.9

"Where do you want us to prepare for it?" they asked.

Luke.22.9

So they said to Him, "Where do You want us to prepare?"

Luke.22.9

"Where do you want us to go?" they asked him.

Luke.22.10

And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.

Luke.22.10

He said, "Keep your eyes open as you enter the city. A man carrying a water jug will meet you. Follow him home.

Luke.22.10

He replied, "As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters,

Luke.22.10

And He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters.

Luke.22.10

He replied, "As soon as you enter Jerusalem, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him. At the house he enters,

Luke.22.11

And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

Luke.22.11

Then speak with the owner of the house: The Teacher wants to know, "Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?'

Luke.22.11

and say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?'

Luke.22.11

Then you shall say to the master of the house, "The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"'

Luke.22.11

say to the owner, 'The Teacher asks, Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?'

Luke.22.12

And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

Luke.22.12

He will show you a spacious second-story room, swept and ready. Prepare the meal there."

Luke.22.12

He will show you a large upper room, all furnished. Make preparations there."

Luke.22.12

Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room; there make ready."

Luke.22.12

He will take you upstairs to a large room that is already set up. That is the place. Go ahead and prepare our supper there."

Luke.22.13

And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

Luke.22.13

They left, found everything just as he told them, and prepared the Passover meal.

Luke.22.13

They left and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.

Luke.22.13

So they went and found it just as He had said to them, and they prepared the Passover.

Luke.22.13

They went off to the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they prepared the Passover supper there.

Luke.22.14

And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

Luke.22.14

When it was time, he sat down, all the apostles with him,

Luke.22.14

When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table.

Luke.22.14

When the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him.

Luke.22.14

Then at the proper time Jesus and the twelve apostles sat down together at the table.

Luke.22.15

And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

Luke.22.15

and said, "You've no idea how much I have looked forward to eating this Passover meal with you before I enter my time of suffering.

Luke.22.15

And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.

Luke.22.15

Then He said to them, "With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;

Luke.22.15

Jesus said, "I have looked forward to this hour with deep longing, anxious to eat this Passover meal with you before my suffering begins.

Luke.22.16

For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

Luke.22.16

It's the last one I'll eat until we all eat it together in the kingdom of God."

Luke.22.16

For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God."

Luke.22.16

for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God."

Luke.22.16

For I tell you now that I won't eat it again until it comes to fulfillment in the Kingdom of God."

Luke.22.17

And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:

Luke.22.17

Taking the cup, he blessed it, then said, "Take this and pass it among you.

Luke.22.17

After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, "Take this and divide it among you.

Luke.22.17

Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, "Take this and divide it among yourselves;

Luke.22.17

Then he took a cup of wine, and when he had given thanks for it, he said, "Take this and share it among yourselves.

Luke.22.18

For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

Luke.22.18

As for me, I'll not drink wine again until the kingdom of God arrives."

Luke.22.18

For I tell you I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

Luke.22.18

for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

Luke.22.18

For I will not drink wine again until the Kingdom of God has come."

Luke.22.19

And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

Luke.22.19

Taking bread, he blessed it, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, given for you. Eat it in my memory."

Luke.22.19

And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me."

Luke.22.19

And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

Luke.22.19

Then he took a loaf of bread; and when he had thanked God for it, he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, "This is my body, given for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

Luke.22.20

Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

Luke.22.20

He did the same with the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant written in my blood, blood poured out for you.

Luke.22.20

In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

Luke.22.20

Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you.

Luke.22.20

After supper he took another cup of wine and said, "This wine is the token of God's new covenant to save you--an agreement sealed with the blood I will pour out for you.

Luke.22.21

But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

Luke.22.21

"Do you realize that the hand of the one who is betraying me is at this moment on this table?

Luke.22.21

But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table.

Luke.22.21

But behold, the hand of My betrayer is with Me on the table.

Luke.22.21

"But here at this table, sitting among us as a friend, is the man who will betray me.

Luke.22.22

And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

Luke.22.22

It's true that the Son of Man is going down a path already marked out--no surprises there. But for the one who turns him in, turns traitor to the Son of Man, this is doomsday."

Luke.22.22

The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed, but woe to that man who betrays him."

Luke.22.22

And truly the Son of Man goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!"

Luke.22.22

For I, the Son of Man, must die since it is part of God's plan. But how terrible it will be for my betrayer!"

Luke.22.23

And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

Luke.22.23

They immediately became suspicious of each other and began quizzing one another, wondering who might be about to do this.

Luke.22.23

They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this.

Luke.22.23

Then they began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.

Luke.22.23

Then the disciples began to ask each other which of them would ever do such a thing.

Luke.22.24

And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

Luke.22.24

Within minutes they were bickering over who of them would end up the greatest.

Luke.22.24

Also a dispute arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest.

Luke.22.24

Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest.

Luke.22.24

And they began to argue among themselves as to who would be the greatest in the coming Kingdom.

Luke.22.25

And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

Luke.22.25

But Jesus intervened: "Kings like to throw their weight around and people in authority like to give themselves fancy titles.

Luke.22.25

Jesus said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors.

Luke.22.25

And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called "benefactors.'

Luke.22.25

Jesus told them, "In this world the kings and great men order their people around, and yet they are called 'friends of the people.'

Luke.22.26

But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

Luke.22.26

It's not going to be that way with you. Let the senior among you become like the junior; let the leader act the part of the servant.

Luke.22.26

But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves.

Luke.22.26

But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.

Luke.22.26

But among you, those who are the greatest should take the lowest rank, and the leader should be like a servant.

Luke.22.27

For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

Luke.22.27

"Who would you rather be: the one who eats the dinner or the one who serves the dinner? You'd rather eat and be served, right? But I've taken my place among you as the one who serves.

Luke.22.27

For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.

Luke.22.27

For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.

Luke.22.27

Normally the master sits at the table and is served by his servants. But not here! For I am your servant.

Luke.22.28

Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

Luke.22.28

And you've stuck with me through thick and thin.

Luke.22.28

You are those who have stood by me in my trials.

Luke.22.28

"But you are those who have continued with Me in My trials.

Luke.22.28

You have remained true to me in my time of trial.

Luke.22.29

And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;

Luke.22.29

Now I confer on you the royal authority my Father conferred on me

Luke.22.29
