Joshua 4:9 in Context — Joshua 4

7 Então vós lhes respondereis: “As águas do Jordão foram interrompidas diante da arca do pacto do SENHOR; quando ela passou pelo Jordão, as águas do Jordão se separaram; e estas pedras serão por memorial aos filhos de Israel para sempre.

8 E os filhos de Israel o fizeram assim como Josué havia lhes mandado, e levantaram doze pedras do meio do Jordão, como o SENHOR havia dito a Josué, conforme o número das tribos dos filhos de Israel; e levaram-nas consigo ao alojamento, e ali as puseram.

9 Josué também levantou doze pedras no meio do Jordão, no lugar onde estiveram os pés dos sacerdotes que levavam a arca do pacto; e ali estão até hoje.

10 Pois os sacerdotes que levavam a arca ficaram parados no meio do Jordão, até que se cumpriu tudo o que o SENHOR havia mandado a Josué dizer ao povo, conforme tudo quanto Moisés havia ordenado a Josué; e o povo apressou-se e passou.

11 E sucedeu quando todo o povo acabou de passar, então passaram a arca do SENHOR, e os sacerdotes, na presença do povo.
