Joshua 7:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ Then Joshua tore his ·clothes in sorrow [^Lclothes]. He ·bowed [fell] facedown on the ground before the Ark of the Lord and stayed there until evening. The ·leaders [^Lelders] of Israel did the same thing. They also threw ·dirt [dust] on their heads [^Cto show their sorrow]. ⁷ Then Joshua said, “·Lord God [or Sovereign Lord], why did you bring our people across the Jordan River ·and then let the Amorites destroy us [to give us into the hands of the Amorites]? ·We would have [^LIf only we had] been happy to stay on the other side of the Jordan. ⁸ Lord, ·there is nothing I can say now [what can I say now that…]. Israel has ·been beaten by [fled from; ^Lturned their back before] the enemy.
