Joshua 7:23-25
1599 Geneva Bible
23 Therefore they took them out of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel, and laid them before the Lord.
24 Then Joshua took Achan the [a]son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the [b]wedge of gold, and his [c]sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had: and all Israel with him, brought them unto the valley of Achor.
25 And Joshua said, [d]In as much as thou hast troubled us, the Lord shall trouble thee this day: and all Israel threw stones at him, and burned them with fire, and stoned them with stones.
