Now it came to pass after{H310} the death{H4194} of Moses{H4872} the servant{H5650} of Jehovah,{H3068} that Jehovah{H3068} spake{H559} unto Joshua{H3091} the son{H1121} of Nun,{H5126} Moses'{H4872} minister,{H8334} saying,{H559}

Moses{H4872} my servant{H5650} is dead;{H4191} now therefore arise,{H6965} go over{H5674} this Jordan,{H3383} thou, and all this people,{H5971} unto the land{H776} which I do give{H5414} to them, even to the children{H1121} of Israel.{H3478}

Every place{H4725} that the sole{H3709} of your foot{H7272} shall tread upon,{H1869} to you have I given{H5414} it, as I spake{H1696} unto Moses.{H4872}

From the wilderness,{H4057} and this Lebanon,{H3844} even unto the great{H1419} river,{H5104} the river{H5104} Euphrates,{H6578} all the land{H776} of the Hittites,{H2850} and unto the great{H1419} sea{H3220} toward the going down{H3996} of the sun,{H8121} shall be your border.{H1366}

There shall not any man{H376} be able to stand{H3320} before{H6440} thee all the days{H3117} of thy life:{H2416} as I was with Moses,{H4872} so I will be with thee; I will not fail{H7503} thee, nor forsake{H5800} thee.

Be strong{H2388} and of good courage;{H553} for thou shalt cause this people{H5971} to inherit{H5157} the land{H776} which I sware{H7650} unto their fathers{H1} to give{H5414} them.

Only be strong{H2388} and very{H3966} courageous,{H553} to observe{H8104} to do{H6213} according to all the law,{H8451} which Moses{H4872} my servant{H5650} commanded{H6680} thee: turn{H5493} not from it to the right hand{H3225} or to the left,{H8040} that thou mayest have good success{H7919} whithersoever thou goest.{H3212}

This book{H5612} of the law{H8451} shall not depart{H4185} out of thy mouth,{H6310} but thou shalt meditate{H1897} thereon day{H3119} and night,{H3915} that thou mayest observe{H8104} to do{H6213} according to all that is written{H3789} therein: for then thou shalt make{H6743} thy way{H1870} prosperous,{H6743} and then thou shalt have good success.{H7919}

Have not I commanded{H6680} thee? Be strong{H2388} and of good courage;{H553} be not affrighted,{H6206} neither be thou dismayed:{H2865} for Jehovah{H3068} thy God{H430} is with thee whithersoever thou goest.{H3212}

Then Joshua{H3091} commanded{H6680} the officers{H7860} of the people,{H5971} saying,{H559}

Pass{H5674} through{H7130} the midst of the camp,{H4264} and command{H6680} the people,{H5971} saying,{H559} Prepare{H3559} you victuals;{H6720} for within three{H7969} days{H3117} ye are to pass over{H5674} this Jordan,{H3383} to go in{H935} to possess{H3423} the land,{H776} which Jehovah{H3068} your God{H430} giveth{H5414} you to possess{H3423} it.

And to the Reubenites,{H7206} and to the Gadites,{H1425} and to the half -{H2677} tribe{H7626} of Manasseh,{H4519} spake{H559} Joshua,{H3091} saying,{H559}

Remember{H2142} the word{H1697} which Moses{H4872} the servant{H5650} of Jehovah{H3068} commanded{H6680} you, saying,{H559} Jehovah{H3068} your God{H430} giveth you rest,{H5117} and will give{H5414} you this land.{H776}

Your wives,{H802} your little ones,{H2945} and your cattle,{H4735} shall abide{H3427} in the land{H776} which Moses{H4872} gave{H5414} you beyond{H5676} the Jordan;{H3383} but ye shall pass{H5674} over before{H6440} your brethren{H251} armed,{H2571} all the mighty{H1368} men of valor,{H2428} and shall help{H5826} them;

until Jehovah{H3068} have given{H5117} your brethren{H251} rest,{H5117} as [he hath given]{H5117} you, and they also have possessed{H3423} the land{H776} which Jehovah{H3068} your God{H430} giveth{H5414} them: then ye shall return{H7725} unto the land{H776} of your possession,{H3425} and possess it, which Moses{H4872} the servant{H5650} of Jehovah{H3068} gave{H5414} you beyond{H5676} the Jordan{H3383} toward the sunrising.{H4217}

And they answered{H6030} Joshua,{H3091} saying,{H559} All that thou hast commanded{H6680} us we will do,{H6213} and whithersoever{H834} thou sendest{H7971} us we will go.{H3212}

According as we hearkened{H8085} unto Moses{H4872} in all things, so will we hearken{H8085} unto thee: only Jehovah{H3068} thy God{H430} be with thee, as he was with Moses.{H4872}

Whosoever{H376} he be that shall rebel{H4784} against thy commandment,{H6310} and shall not hearken{H8085} unto thy words{H1697} in all that thou commandest{H6680} him, he shall be put to death:{H4191} only be strong{H2388} and of good courage.{H553}
