Joshua 7:1 in English

Joshua 7:1 · Berean Standard Bible

The Israelites, however, acted unfaithfully regarding the things devoted to destruction.* Achan * son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi,* the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of what was set apart. So the anger of the LORD burned against the Israelites.
