12-13 Joshua got up early the next morning, and for the second time the priests and soldiers marched round the city in the same order as the day before: first, the advance guard; next, the seven priests blowing the seven trumpets; then, the priests carrying the Lord's Covenant Box; and finally, the rearguard. All this time the trumpets were sounding.
14 On this second day they again marched round the city once and then returned to camp. They did this for six days.
15 On the seventh day they got up at daybreak and marched seven times round the city in the same way — this was the only day that they marched round it seven times.
16 The seventh time round, when the priests were about to sound the trumpets, Joshua ordered the people to shout, and he said, “The Lord has given you the city!
17 The city and everything in it must be totally destroyed as an offering to the Lord. Only the prostitute Rahab and her household will be spared, because she hid our spies.
18 But you are not to take anything that is to be destroyed; if you do, you will bring trouble and destruction on the Israelite camp.
19 Everything made of silver, gold, bronze, or iron is set apart for the Lord. It is to be put in the Lord's treasury.”
