1And it happened, when all the people had completely passed over the Jordan, that the LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,
2Take twelve men from the people, one man from each tribe,
3And command them, saying, Take from here out of the midst of the Jordan, from the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones, and carry them over with you, and leave them in the place where you will lodge tonight.
4Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had appointed from the children of Israel, one man from each tribe,
5And Joshua said to them, Pass over before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of the Jordan, and every one of you take a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel,
