Joshua 7:6-8

Living Bible

⁶ Joshua and the elders of Israel tore their clothing and lay prostrate before the Ark of the Lord until evening, with dust on their heads.

⁷ Joshua cried out to the Lord, “O Jehovah, why have you brought us over the Jordan River if you are going to let the Amorites kill us? Why weren’t we content with what we had? Why didn’t we stay on the other side? ⁸ O Lord, what am I to do now that Israel has fled from her enemies!
