Joshua 3:9 In-Context

7 ADONAI said to Y'hoshua, "Starting today, I will make you great in full view of all Isra'el; so that they will know that just as I was with Moshe, so I will be with you.

8 Now you are to order the cohanim carrying the ark for the covenant as follows: 'When you come to the edge of the Yarden River, you are to stop in the Yarden itself.'"

9 Y'hoshua said to the people of Isra'el, "Come here, and listen to the words of ADONAI your God."

10 Then Y'hoshua said, "Here is how you will know that the living God is here with you and that, without fail, he will drive out from before you the Kena'ani, the Hitti, the Hivi, the P'rizi, the Girgashi, the Emori and the Y'vusi:

11 the ark for the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is going on ahead of you across the Yarden.
