19 The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Jericho.
20 Joshua set up those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, in Gilgal.
21 He spoke to the children of Israel, saying, “When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, ‘What do these stones mean?’
22 Then you shall let your children know, saying, ‘Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.
23 For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan from before you, until you had crossed over, as the Lord your God did to the Sea of Suf, which he dried up from before us, until we had crossed over;
24 that all the peoples of the earth may know that the Lord’s hand is mighty; that you may fear the Lord your God forever.’”
