Joshua 6:6-14

So Joshua son of Nun summoned the priests and instructed them: “Take up the ark of the covenant, and have seven priests carry seven shofars in front of the ark of YAHWEH.” And to the people he said, “Forward! March around the city and set an advance guard of armed men to march ahead of the ark of YAHWEH.” At Joshua’s order, the seven priests carrying seven shofars advanced before YAHWEH. The ark of the covenant of YAHWEH followed them as they made long blasts on their shofars. The advance guard marched in front of the priests who were blowing the shofars, the rear guard marched behind the ark, and the shofars blared the whole time! Now Joshua had commanded the rest of the people, “Do not shout! Remain silent! Don’t make a sound until the moment I command you to shout. Then lift up a shout with all your might!” So the ark of YAHWEH circled the city once, then they all came back to the camp in Gilgal and spent the night. Joshua rose bright and early the next morning, and the priests took up the ark of YAHWEH. The armed men and the seven priests carrying the seven shofars marched in front of the ark of YAHWEH blowing their shofars continually, and the rear guard followed the ark of YAHWEH, while the trumpets kept sounding. On the second day, they circled the city once and again returned to the camp. They repeated this pattern for six days.
