Joshua 7:14-18

Tomorrow morning, you shall present yourselves by tribes. YAHWEH will indicate which tribe must come forward by clans. YAHWEH will indicate which clan must come forward by families. And YAHWEH will indicate which family must come forward one by one. Then finally, YAHWEH will expose the man caught with the devoted things, which must be destroyed by fire. Everything that man owns you must likewise destroy by fire, for he has violated the covenant of YAHWEH and committed an outrageous act in Israel!’ ” Joshua was up at the crack of dawn and had Israel come forward by tribes, and YAHWEH indicated the tribe of Judah. Joshua then had the clans of Judah come forward, and YAHWEH picked out the clan of Zerah. Joshua then had the clan of Zerah come forward and YAHWEH indicated the family of Zimri. Joshua then had Zimri’s family come forward one by one, and YAHWEH picked out Achan, the son of Carmi, son of Zimri, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah.
