Joshua 3:4-6

New International Version

⁴ Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before. But keep a distance of about two thousand cubits^[a](A) between you and the ark; do not go near it.”

⁵ Joshua told the people, “Consecrate yourselves,^(B) for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things^(C) among you.”

⁶ Joshua said to the priests, “Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on ahead of the people.” So they took it up and went ahead of them.
