And as they that bare {H5375} the ark {H727} were come {H935} unto Jordan {H3383}, and the feet {H7272} of the priests {H3548} that bare {H5375} the ark {H727} were dipped {H2881} in the brim {H7097} of the water {H4325},(for Jordan {H3383} overfloweth {H4390} all his banks {H1415} all the time {H3117} of harvest {H7105},)

When those carrying the ark had come to the Yarden, and the cohanim carrying the ark had waded into the water (for throughout harvest season the Yarden overflows its banks),

and when they that bare the ark were come unto the Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brink of the water (for the Jordan overfloweth all its banks all the time of harvest),
