14 So when the people set out from their tents to pass over the Jordan with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and as soon as those bearing the ark had come as far as the Jordan, and ^xthe feet of the priests bearing the ark were dipped in the brink of the water (now the Jordan ^yoverflows all its banks throughout the time of harvest), 16 the waters coming down from above stood and rose up in a heap very far away, at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan, and those flowing down toward the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. And the people passed over opposite Jericho. 17 Now the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firmly on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, and all Israel was passing over ^zon dry ground until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.

Allotment of the Remaining Land

1 Then the whole congregation of the people of Israel assembled at Shiloh and ^tset up the tent of meeting there. The land lay subdued before them.
