8 And Joshua the Son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, dyed, when he was an hundred and ten years old. 9 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance, in Thimnath-Heres in mount Ephraim, on the North side of the hill Gaas. 10 And even so also all that generation were put unto their fathers and there arose an other generation after them, which neither knew the Lord, nor yet the work which he had done for Israel.
8 And Iosua the Sonne of Nun, the seruaunt of the Lorde, dyed, when he was an hundred and ten yeares olde. 9 And they buryed him in the border of hys inheritance, in Thimnath-Heres in mount Ephraim, on the North syde of the hyl Gaas. 10 And euen so also all that generation were put vnto their fathers and ther arose an other generation after them, which neither knew the Lord, nor yet the woorke which he had done for Israel.

And for so much as Chaeres signifieth the Sun, it declareth that the Children of Israel placed the Image of the Sun upon the Sepulchre of Joshua, that it might remain as a monument of the miracle by him wrought.
