19 Then Joshua said to Achan, “My son, (A)give glory to the Lord God of Israel and (B)give praise[a] to him. And (C)tell me now what you have done; do not hide it from me.” 20 And Achan answered Joshua, “Truly (D)I have sinned against the Lord God of Israel, and this is what I did: 21 when I saw among the spoil a beautiful cloak from Shinar, and 200 shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing 50 shekels,[b] then I coveted them and took them. And see, they are hidden in the earth inside my tent, with the silver underneath.”
