26 And they proceeded to raise up over him a big pile of stones, down to this day.+ At this Jehovah turned away from his hot anger.+ That is why the name of that place has been called Low Plain of Aʹchor,*+ down to this day.

29 And he hanged the king of Aʹi+ upon a stake until the evening time;+ and as the sun was about to set Joshua gave the command, and then they took his dead body down+ from the stake* and pitched it at the entrance of the gate of the city and raised up a great pile of stones over him, down to this day.

27 And it came about that at the time of the setting of the sun Joshua commanded, and they went taking them down off the stakes+ and throwing them into the cave where they had hid themselves. Then they placed big stones at the mouth of the cave—until this very day.
