And Joshua charged them with an oath at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Jehovah, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: with the loss of his first-born shall he lay the foundation thereof, and with the loss of his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.

Then Joshua gave the people orders with an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed before the Lord who puts his hand to the building up of this town: with the loss of his first son will he put the first stone of it in place, and with the loss of his youngest son he will put up its doors.

Και ωμοσεν ο Ιησους κατ' εκεινον τον καιρον, λεγων, Κατηραμενος ενωπιον του Κυριου ο ανθρωπος, οστις αναστηση και κτιση την πολιν ταυτην την Ιεριχω· με τον θανατον του πρωτοτοκου υιου αυτου θελει βαλει τα θεμελια αυτης, και με τον θανατον του νεωτατου υιου αυτου θελει στησει τας πυλας αυτης.

And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the Lord, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.
