Joshua 3:14-17 (NKJV)
[14] So it was, when the people set out from their camp to cross
over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the
people,
[15] and as those who bore the ark came to the Jordan, and the
feet of the priests who bore the ark dipped in the edge of the water (for the
Jordan overflows all its banks during the whole time of harvest),
[16] that the waters which
came down from upstream stood still, and rose in a heap very far away at Adam,
the city that is beside Zaretan. So the waters that went down into the Sea of
the Arabah, the Salt Sea, failed, and were cut off; and the people crossed over
opposite Jericho.
[17] Then the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the
midst of the Jordan; and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the
people had crossed completely over the Jordan.
