Joshua Curses the Rebuilding of Jericho
26 Then Joshua made everyone[a] take the following oath at that time. He said:
“Cursed in the presence of the Lord is the man
who restores and rebuilds this city of Jericho!
He will lay its foundation at the cost of[b] his firstborn,
and at the cost of[c] his youngest he will set up its gates.”
27 So the Lord was with Joshua, and as a result, Joshua’s[d] reputation spread throughout the land.
