And command thou the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, 'When ye are entered a little into the water of Jordan then stand still in it.'"

And as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of Jehovah - the Lord of all the world - tread in the water of Jordan, the water of Jordan shall divide itself and the waters that cometh from above shall stand still upon a heap."

And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood still upon dry land, until all the people were clean over Jordan.

And when all the people were full circumcised, they abode still in their places in the host till they were whole.

Then spake Joshua unto the LORD, the day when the LORD delivered the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of all Israel, "Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon, and thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon."

And the sun abode, and the moon stood still, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the righteous, how that the sun abode in the midst of heaven and hasted not to go down by the space of a whole day?

And stand ye not still, but follow after your enemies and smite the hindmost of them. And suffer them not to enter into their cities, for the LORD your God hath delivered them into your hands.
