Command H6680 the priests H3548 that bear H5375 the ark H727 of the testimony, H5715 that they come up H5927 out of Jordan. H3383 Joshua H3091 therefore commanded H6680 the priests, H3548 saying, H559 Come ye up H5927 out of Jordan.

G2977 nay G3756 verily; G1063 but G235 let them come G2064 themselves G846 and fetch G1806 us G2248 out.

G4514 And G2532 they came G2064 and besought G3870 them, G846 and G2532 brought them out, G1806 and desired G2065 them to depart out G1831 of the city. G4172
