Joshua 6:18-20
Common English Bible
18 But you, keep away from the things set aside for God so that you don’t desire[a] and take some of the things reserved. That would turn the camp of Israel into a thing doomed to be utterly wiped out and bring calamity on it. 19 All silver and gold, along with bronze and iron equipment, are holy to the Lord. They must go into the Lord’s treasury.” 20 Then the people shouted. They blew the trumpets. As soon as the people heard the trumpet blast, they shouted a loud war cry. Then the wall collapsed. The people went up against the city, attacking straight ahead. They captured the city.

Joshua 6:18-20
New International Version
18 But keep away from the devoted things,(A) so that you will not bring about your own destruction by taking any of them. Otherwise you will make the camp of Israel liable to destruction(B) and bring trouble(C) on it. 19 All the silver and gold and the articles of bronze and iron(D) are sacred to the Lord and must go into his treasury.”
20 When the trumpets sounded,(E) the army shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the men gave a loud shout,(F) the wall collapsed; so everyone charged straight in, and they took the city.(G)
