Joshua 7:20-26

Joshua 7:20-26

[20] And Achan  answered  Joshua,  and said,  Indeed  I have sinned  against the LORD  God  of Israel,  and thus and thus have I done:  [21] When I saw  among the spoils  goodly  Babylonish  garment,  and two hundred  shekels  of silver,  and a  wedge  of gold  of fifty  shekels  weight,  then I coveted  them, and took  them; and, behold, they are hid  in the earth  in the midst  of my tent,  and the silver  [22] So Joshua  sent  messengers,  and they ran  unto the tent;  and, behold, it was hid  in his tent,  and the silver  [23] And they took  them out of the midst  of the tent,  and brought  them unto Joshua,  and unto all the children  of Israel,  and laid them out  before  the LORD.  [24] And Joshua,  and all Israel  with him, took  Achan  the son  of Zerah,  and the silver,  and the garment,  and the wedge  of gold,  and his sons,  and his daughters,  and his oxen,  and his asses,  and his sheep,  and his tent,  and all that he had: and they brought  them unto the valley  of Achor.  [25] And Joshua  said,  Why  hast thou troubled  us? the LORD  shall trouble  thee this day.  And all Israel  stoned  him with stones,  and burned  them with fire,  after they had stoned  them with stones.  [26] And they raised  over him a great  heap  of stones  unto this day.  So the LORD  turned  from the fierceness  of his anger.  Wherefore the name  of that place  was called,  The valley  of Achor,  unto this day.
