12Therefore while Joshua rose early in the morrowtide, the priests took the ark of the Lord;
13and seven of the priests took seven clarions, which were used in the jubilee, and the priests went before the ark of the Lord, and trumped; and the people went armed before them. And the tother common people pursued or followed the ark, and sounded with trumps.
14And they compassed the city in the second day once, and turned again into the tents; so they did six days.
15And in the seventh day they rose early, and compassed the city, as it was ordained, seven times.
16And when in the seventh compass, the priests sounded with clarions, Joshua said to all Israel, Cry ye, for the Lord hath betaken the city to us;
17and this city be cursed, either destroyed, and all things that be therein be hallowed to the Lord. Rahab the whore alone live, with all the men that be with her in the house; for she hid the messengers which we sent.
18And be ye ware, lest ye touch anything of these things that be forbidden to you, and ye be guilty of trespassing; and all the tents of Israel be under sin, and be troubled.
19For whatever thing is of gold, and of silver, and of brazen vessels, and of iron, be it hallowed to the Lord, and be it kept in his treasuries.
20Then while all the people cried, and the trumps sounded, after that the sound sounded in the ears of the multitude, the walls felled down anon; and each man went up by the place that was against him. And they took the city,
21and they killed all things that were therein, from man unto woman, from a young child unto an eld or old man; also they killed by sharp-ness of sword, oxen, sheep, and asses.
22Forsooth Joshua said to the two men, that were sent spyers, Enter ye into the house of the woman whore, and bring ye forth her, and all things that be hers, as ye made steadfast to her by an oath.
23And the young men entered in, and they led out Rahab, and her father, and mother, and all her brethren, and all the appurtenance of her, and kindred; and they made them to dwell without the tents of Israel.
