Joshua 4:20 in Context — Joshua 4

18 Lorsque les sacrificateurs qui portaient l’arche de l’alliance de l’Éternel furent sortis du milieu du Jourdain, et que la plante de leurs pieds se posa sur le sec, les eaux du Jourdain retournèrent à leur place, et se répandirent comme auparavant sur tous ses bords.

19 Le peuple sortit du Jourdain le dixième jour du premier mois, et il campa à Guilgal, à l’extrémité orientale de Jéricho.

20 Josué dressa à Guilgal les douze pierres qu’ils avaient prises du Jourdain.

21 Il dit aux enfants d’Israël: Lorsque vos enfants demanderont un jour à leurs pères: Que signifient ces pierres?

22 vous en instruirez vos enfants, et vous direz: Israël a passé ce Jourdain à sec.
