15 “And it must occur that if you will not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God by taking care to do all his commandments and his statutes that I am commanding you today, all these maledictions must also come upon you and overtake you:+

24 Joshua, and all Israel with him, now took Aʹchan+ the son of Zeʹrah and the silver and the official garment and the bar of gold+ and his sons and his daughters and his bull and his ass and his flock and his tent and everything that was his and they brought them up to the low plain of Aʹchor.+

25 But when Esther* came in before the king he said with the written document:+ “Let his bad scheme+ that he has schemed against the Jews come back upon his own head”;+ and they hanged him and his sons upon the stake.+

4 ‘I have caused it to go forth,’ is the utterance of Jehovah of armies, ‘and it must enter into the house of the thief and into the house of the one making a sworn oath in my name falsely;+ and it must lodge in the midst of his house and exterminate it and its timbers and its stones.’”+

5 But according to your hardness+ and unrepentant heart+ you are storing up wrath+ for yourself on the day of wrath+ and of the revealing+ of God’s righteous judgment.+

6 On account of those things the wrath of God is coming.+
