4:1And so when the people were al gone ouer Iordane (after ye Lord had spoken vnto Iosuah, saying
4:2Take you twelue men out of the people, out of euery tribe a man
4:3And commaunde you them, saying: Take you hence out of the middes of Iordane euen out of the place where the priestes stoode in a redinesse, twelue stones, which ye shall take away with you, and leaue them in the lodgyng where you shall lodge this nyght
4:4Then Iosuah called the twelue men, which he had prepared of the chyldren of Israel, out of euery tribe a man
4:5And Iosuah sayde vnto them: Get you before the arke of the Lorde your God, euen through the middes of Iordane, and take vp euery man of you a stone vpon his shoulder, accordyng vnto the number of the tribes of the chyldren of Israel

4:11And when all the people were cleane passed ouer, the arke of the Lord went ouer also, and the priestes before the people
4:12And the chyldren of Ruben, and the chyldren of Gad, and halfe the tribe of Manasse, went before the chyldren of Israel armed, as Moyses charged the
4:13Euen fourtie thousande prepared for warre, went before the Lorde vnto battayl, through the plaine of Iericho
4:14That day the Lorde magnified Iosuah in the syght of all Israel: and they feared hym, as they feared Moyses all dayes of his lyfe
4:15And the Lorde spake vnto Iosuah, saying
4:16Commaunde the priestes that beare the arke of the testimonie to come vp out of Iordane

4:20And the twelue stones whiche they toke out of Iordane, dyd Iosuah pitch in Gilgal
4:21And he spake vnto the chyldren of Israel, saying: If your chyldren aske their fathers in tyme to come, and saye: What meane these stones
4:22Ye shall shewe your chyldren, and say: Israel came ouer this Iordane on drye lande
4:23For the Lorde your God dried vp the water of Iordane before you, vntill ye were gone ouer, as ye Lorde your God dyd the red sea, which he dried vp before vs, tyll we were gone ouer
4:24That all the people of ye world may knowe the hande of the Lorde howe mightie it is, and that ye might feare the Lorde your God for euer

Bishops Bible 1568

The Bishops' Bible was produced under the authority of the established Church of England in 1568. It was substantially revised in 1572, and the 1602 edition was prescribed as the base text for the King James Bible completed in 1611. The thorough Calvinism of the Geneva Bible offended the Church of England, to which almost all of its bishops subscribed. They associated Calvinism with Presbyterianism, which sought to replace government of the church by bishops with government by lay elders. However, they were aware that the Great Bible of 1539 , which was the only version then legally authorized for use in Anglican worship, was severely deficient, in that much of the Old Testament and Apocrypha was translated from the Latin Vulgate, rather than from the original Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. In an attempt to replace the objectionable Geneva translation, they circulated one of their own, which became known as the Bishops' Bible.
