God Magnifies Joshua’s Authority

Joshua 3:7-13

Then the Lord saide vnto Ioshua, This day will I begin to magnifie thee in the sight of all Israel, which shall knowe, that as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee.

Thou shalt therefore command the Priests that beare the Arke of the Couenant, saying, When ye are come to the brinke of the waters of Iorden, ye shall stande still in Iorden.

Then Ioshua said vnto the children of Israel, Come hither, and heare the wordes of the Lord your God.

And Ioshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the liuing God is among you, and that he will certainely cast out before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hiuites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Iebusites.

Beholde, the Arke of the couenant of the Lord of all the worlde passeth before you into Iorden.

Nowe therefore take from among you twelue men out of the tribes of Israel, out of euery tribe a man.

And assoone as the soles of the feete of the Priestes (that beare the Arke of the Lord God the Lord of all the worlde) shall stay in the waters of Iorden, the waters of Iorden shall be cut off: for the waters that come from aboue, shall stande still vpon an heape.
