Joshua 7:24-26
GOD’S WORD Translation
24 Joshua and all Israel took Achan (son of Zerah), the silver, the robe, the bar of gold, his sons and daughters, his cattle, his donkeys, his sheep, and his tent—everything he had—and brought them to the valley of Achor [Disaster].
25 Then Joshua said, “Why did you bring this disaster on us? The Lord will bring disaster on you today!” And all Israel stoned Achan and his family to death. Then they burned the bodies and piled stones over them. 26 They made such a large pile of stones over Achan that it is still there today. Then the Lord withdrew his burning anger. For this reason that place is still called the valley of Achor today.

The Lord will bring trouble on you today.”
Then all Israel stoned him,(D) and after they had stoned the rest, they burned them.(E) 26 Over Achan they heaped(F) up a large pile of rocks, which remains to this day.(G) Then the Lord turned from his fierce anger.(H) Therefore that place has been called the Valley of Achor[a](I) ever since.
