And he said to the children of Israel, When your children say to their fathers in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?
And when your son says to you in time to come, What is the reason for this? say to him, By the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt, out of the prison-house:
And the twelve stones which they took out of Jordan, Joshua put up in Gilgal.
Then give your children the story, and say, Israel came over this river Jordan on dry land.
So that this may be a sign among you; when your children say to you in time to come, What is the reason for these stones?
