Joshua 3:8 in Context — Joshua 3
6 E falou Josué aos sacerdotes, dizendo: Tomai a arca do pacto, e passai diante do povo. E eles tomaram a arca do pacto, e foram diante do povo.
7 Então o SENHOR disse a Josué: Desde este dia começarei a fazer-te grande diante dos olhos de todo Israel, para que entendam que como fui com Moisés, assim serei contigo.
8 Tu, pois, mandarás aos sacerdotes que levam a arca do pacto, dizendo: Quando houverdes entrado até a borda da água do Jordão, parareis no Jordão.
9 E Josué disse aos filhos de Israel: Achegai-vos aqui, e escutai as palavras do SENHOR vosso Deus.
10 E acrescentou Josué: Em isto conhecereis que o Deus vivente está em meio de vós, e que ele lançará de diante de vós aos cananeus, e aos heteus, e aos heveus, e aos perizeus, e aos gergeseus, e aos amorreus, e aos jebuseus.
