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.
At that time, Joshua warned people, "May God curse anyone who tries to rebuild the city Jericho. They must build its foundation using their firstborn child and put up its gates using their youngest son."
