Joshua 7:24-26

Expanded Bible

²⁴ Then Joshua and all the people led Achan son of Zerah to the Valley of ·Trouble [or Achor; ^Ca Hebrew word meaning “trouble” or “disaster”]. They also took the silver, the coat, the gold bar, Achan’s sons, daughters, cattle, donkeys, sheep, tent, and everything he owned. ²⁵ Joshua said, “·I don’t know why [^LWhy have…?] you caused so much trouble [^CHebrew achor] for us, but now the Lord will bring trouble [^CHebrew achor] to you.” Then all the people threw stones at Achan and his family until they died [Ex. 19:13; Lev. 24:23; Num. 15:36]. Then the people burned them. ²⁶ They piled rocks over Achan’s body, and they are still there today. That is why it is called the Valley of ·Trouble [^LAchor]. After this the Lord ·was no longer angry [^Lturned from his burning anger].
