Joshua 4:22-24
International Standard Version
22 you are to tell your descendants: ‘Israel crossed this Jordan River on dry ground 23 because the Lord your God dried up the water of the Jordan River right in front of you, until you had crossed over, just as the Lord your God had done to the Reed[a] Sea—which he had dried up in front of us until we had crossed it also.’ 24 Do this[b] so that all of the people of the earth may know how strong the power[c] of the Lord is, and so that you may fear the Lord your God every day.”

Joshua 4:22-24
New International Version
22 tell them, ‘Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’(A) 23 For the Lord your God dried up the Jordan before you until you had crossed over. The Lord your God did to the Jordan what he had done to the Red Sea[a] when he dried it up before us until we had crossed over.(B) 24 He did this so that all the peoples of the earth might know(C) that the hand of the Lord is powerful(D) and so that you might always fear the Lord your God.(E)”
