For example, in Genesis 1:1 the word is preceded by בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים ( הַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים נֹשְׂאֵ֥י אֲרֽוֹן הַבְּרִ֖ית לֵאמֹ֑ר כְּבֹאֲכֶ֗ם עַד קְצֵה֙ מֵ֣י הַיַּרְדֵּ֔ן בַּיַּרְדֵּ֖ן תַּעֲמֹֽדוּ
ESV	And as for you, command the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, 'When you come to the brink of the waters of the Jordan, you shall stand still in the Jordan.'“

NLT	Give this command to the priests who carry the Ark of the Covenant: 'When you reach the banks of the Jordan River, take a few steps into the river and stop there.'“
