1Jericho was totally locked down 'cause of the Israelites: no one was going in or out, fr.

2The Lord told Joshua, "Yo, I got you. Jericho and its king are yours, no cap."

3"You guys are gonna circle the city, all the warriors, and do it once a day for six days. Bet."

4"On the seventh day, seven priests will carry seven trumpets, and you'll circle the city seven times while they blow those horns."

5"When they blast that ram's horn and you hear the trumpet, everyone’s gotta shout loud, and the city's walls will just drop. Then everyone can roll in."

6Joshua called the priests and said, "Grab the ark of the covenant and let seven of you carry those trumpets in front of the Lord's ark."

7"Yo, people, move out and circle the city. Let the armed ones go ahead of the Lord's ark."

8When Joshua told the people, the seven priests with the trumpets went ahead of the Lord, blowing those trumpets, and the ark followed them.

9The armed crew went before the priests blowing the trumpets, while the rear guard followed the ark, priests still jamming on those horns.

10Joshua told the people, "No shouting or noise till I tell you to shout; then you can pop off."

11The ark of the Lord did a whole lap around the city, then they just chilled at camp. Vibes.

12Joshua woke up early, and the priests grabbed the ark like it was no big deal. Lit.

13Seven priests with rams' horns were blowing those trumpets non-stop, while the squad rolled out in front. Rizz on point.

14They did another lap around the city on day two and then headed back to camp. Just six days of this grind.

15On the seventh day, they woke up at dawn and circled the city seven times. It was a whole thing.

16After the seventh lap, when the priests blew those trumpets, Joshua told the crew to shout; God was handing them the city. Periodt.

17The city is a no-go zone for everyone except Rahab and her crew since she helped our messengers. Savage.

18But yo, stay away from the cursed stuff, or you'll bring bad vibes on the camp of Israel. No cap.

19All the silver, gold, and metal gear? That's all for the Lord; it’s going straight to the treasure. Bussin’.

20When the priests blew the trumpets, the people shouted, and the walls just crumbled. They rushed in and took the city like it was nothing. Goated.

21They straight-up wiped out everyone in the city, like no cap, all the peeps and animals got wrecked with the sword.

22But Joshua was like to the two homies who scoped the place, "Slide into the harlot’s crib and grab her and all her stuff, just like we promised."

23So the young spies went in, pulled out Rahab, her fam, and all her crew; they got everyone and left them chillin' outside the Israel camp.

24Then they lit the city on fire and everything in it; only the silver, gold, and metal stuff got stashed in the Lord's treasury.

25Joshua kept Rahab the harlot and her fam alive, and she’s still reppin' in Israel today 'cause she hid the messengers Joshua sent to check out Jericho.

26Joshua was like, "Yo, if anyone tries to rebuild Jericho, they’re cursed; they’ll lose their firstborn and youngest to set up the gates."

27So the Lord was vibin' with Joshua, and his rep was spreading all over the place.

1Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.

2And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.

3And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.

4And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams’ horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

5And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.

6And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord.

7And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the Lord.

8And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns passed on before the Lord, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them.

9And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rereward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

10And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.

11So the ark of the Lord compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

12And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord.

13And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rereward came after the ark of the Lord, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

14And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.

15And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

16And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city.

17And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the Lord: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

18And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

19But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the Lord: they shall come into the treasury of the Lord.

20So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

21And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.

22But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot’s house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her.

23And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.

24And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the Lord.

25And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father’s household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

26And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the Lord, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.

27So the Lord was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
