Joshua 7:14-16
New English Translation
14 In the morning you must approach in tribal order.[a] The tribe the Lord selects[b] must approach by clans. The clan the Lord selects must approach by families.[c] The family the Lord selects must approach man by man.[d] 15 The one caught with the riches[e] must be burned up[f] along with all who belong to him, because he violated the Lord’s covenant and did such a disgraceful thing in Israel.’”
16 Bright and early the next morning Joshua made Israel approach in tribal order,[g] and the tribe of Judah was selected.
