Joshua 3:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ And the Lord said to Josue: This day will I begin to exalt thee before Israel: that they may know that as I was with Moses, so I am with thee also.

⁸ And do thou command the priests that carry the ark of the covenant, and say to them: When you shall have entered into part of the water of the Jordan, stand in it.

⁹ And Josue said to the children of Israel: Come hither and hear the word of the Lord your God.
