Joshua 7:16–26

16 So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken: 17 And he brought the family of Judah; and he took the family of tthe Zarhites: and he brought the family of the Zarhites man by man; and Zabdi was taken: 18 And he brought his household man by man; and uAchan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, vwas taken. 19 And Joshua said unto Achan, My son, wgive, I pray thee, glory to the Lord God of Israel, and xmake confession unto him; and ytell me now what thou hast done; hide it not from me. 20 And Achan answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done: 21 When I saw among the spoils a goodly zBabylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it. 22 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it. 23 And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel, and laid them out before the Lord. 24 And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and they brought them unto athe valley of Achor. 25 And Joshua said, bWhy hast thou troubled us? the Lord shall trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them with fire, after they had cstoned them with stones. 26 And they draised over him a great heap of stones unto this day. So ethe Lord turned from the fierceness of his anger. Wherefore the name of that place was called, fThe valley of ||Achor, unto this day.
