Josh. 7:10‑26• 10And Jehovah said unto Joshua, Get thee up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face?
 11Israel hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff.
 12Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they were accursed. {i}I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the accursed thing from your midst.{/i}
 13Up, sanctify the people, and say, Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow: for thus saith Jehovah God of Israel, There is an accursed thing in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.
 14In the morning therefore ye shall be brought according to your tribes: and it shall be, that the tribe which Jehovah taketh shall come according to the families thereof; and the family which Jehovah shall take shall come by households; and the household which Jehovah shall take shall come man by man.
 15And it shall be, that he that is taken with the accursed thing shall be burnt with fire. {i}he and all that he hath, because he hath transgressed the covenant of Jehovah, and because he hath wrought wickedness in Israel{/i}.
 16So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken:
 17and he brought the family of Judah; and he took the family of the Zarhites: and he brought the family of the Zarhites man by man; and Zabdi was taken:
 18and he brought his household man by man; and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.
 19And Joshua said unto Achan, My son, give, I pray thee, glory to Jehovah God of Israel, and make confession unto Him; and tell me now what thou hast done; hide it not from me.
 20And Achan answered Joshua, and said, Indeed I have sinned against Jehovah God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done:
 21When I saw among the spoils a goodly Babylonish 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.
 22So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it.
 23And 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 Jehovah.
 24And 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 the valley of Achor.
 25And Joshua said, Why hast thou troubled us? Jehovah shall trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them with fire, after they had stoned them with stones.
 26And they raised over him a great heap of stones unto this day. So Jehovah turned from the fierceness of His anger. {i}Therefore the name of that place was called, The Valley of Achor, to this day.{/i} (Josh. 7:10‑26)
