And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 6 of Joshua. For six days Israel marches around Jericho once each day. The priests, trumpets, and ark occupy the center of the procession, while the army remains silent. The repetition creates narrative tension and teaches a form of patient obedience: Israel must not improvise its own strategy. The silence of the people contrasts with the ritual activity of the priests and prepares for the decisive moment of the seventh day.

Des andern Tages gingen sie auch einmal um die Stadt und kamen wieder ins Lager. Also taten sie sechs Tage.
Así dieron otra vuelta a la ciudad el segundo día, y volviéronse al real: de esta manera hicieron por seis días.
El segundo día dieron una vuelta a la ciudad y regresaron al campamento. Así hicieron durante seis días.
Ils firent une fois le tour de la ville, le second jour; puis ils retournèrent dans le camp. Ils firent de même pendant six jours.
E circuirono una volta la città nel secondo giorno, e poi ritornarono nel campo. Così fecero per sei giorni.
Assim rodearam outra vez a cidade no segundo dia e voltaram para o arraial; e assim fizeram seis dias.
第二日,他們再把城圍繞一次,就回營裏去。六日都是這樣做。
