Now it cameh1961 about afterh310 the deathh4194 of Mosesh4872 the servanth5650 of the LORDh3068, that the LORDh3068 spokeh559 to Joshuah3091 the sonh1121 of Nunh5126, Moses'h4872  1servanth8334, sayingh559,

2

"Mosesh4872  aMy servanth5650 is deadh4191; nowh6258 therefore ariseh6965,  bcrossh5674a thish2088 Jordanh3383, you and allh3605 thish2088 peopleh5971a, to the landh776 whichh834 I am givingh5414 to them, to the sonsh1121 of Israelh3478.

aEveryh3605 placeh4725 on whichh834 the soleh3709 of your footh7272 treadsh1869, I have givenh5414 it to you, justh3512c as I spokeh1696 to Mosesh4872.

aFrom the wildernessh4057b and thish2088 Lebanonh3844, even as farh5704 as the greath1419 riverh5104, the riverh5104 Euphratesh6578, allh3605 the landh776 of the Hittitesh2850, and as farh5704 as the Greath1419 Seah3220 toward the settingh3996 of the sunh8121 will be your territoryh1366.

5

aNoh3808 manh376 will be able to standh3320 beforeh6440 you allh3605 the daysh3117 of your lifeh2425b. Justh3512c as I have beenh1961 with Mosesh4872, I will be with you;  bI will not failh7503 you or forsakeh5800a you.

6

aBe strongh2388 and courageoush553, for you shall giveh5157 thish2088 peopleh5971a possessionh5157 of the landh776 whichh834 I sworeh7650 to their fathersh1 to giveh5414 them.

7

"Onlyh7534 be strongh2388 and veryh3966 courageoush553;  1 abe carefulh8104 to doh6213a according to allh3605 the lawh8451 whichh834 Mosesh4872 My servanth5650 commandedh6680 you; do not turnh5493 from it to the righth3225 or to the lefth8040, soh4616 that you may  2haveh7919a successh7919a whereverh3605h834 you goh1980.

8

aThish2088 bookh5612 of the lawh8451 shall not departh4185 from your mouthh6310, but you shall meditateh1897 on it dayh3119 and nighth3915, soh4616 that you may  1be carefulh8104 to doh6213a according to allh3605 that is writtenh3789 in it;  bfor thenh227 you will makeh6743b your wayh1870 prosperoush6743b, and thenh227 you will  2haveh7919a successh7919a.

9

"Have I not commandedh6680 you?  aBe strongh2388 and courageoush553!  bDo not trembleh6206 or be dismayedh2865, for the LORDh3068 your Godh430 is with you whereverh3605h834 you goh1980."

Joshua Assumes Command

10

Then Joshuah3091 commandedh6680 the officersh7860 of the peopleh5971a, sayingh559,

11

"Passh5674a through the midsth7130 of the camph4264 and commandh6680 the peopleh5971a, sayingh559, `Prepareh3559 provisionsh6720 for yourselves, for withinh5750  athreeh7969 daysh3117 you are to crossh5674a thish2088 Jordanh3383, to goh935 in to possessh3423 the landh776 whichh834 the LORDh3068 your Godh430 is givingh5414 you, to possessh3423 it.' "

12

 aTo the Reubenitesh7206 and to the Gaditesh1425 and to the half-tribeh2677h7626 of Manassehh4519, Joshuah3091  1saidh559,

13

"Rememberh2142 the wordh1697 whichh834 Mosesh4872 the servanth5650 of the LORDh3068 commandedh6680 you, sayingh559, ` aThe LORDh3068 your Godh430 givesh5117 you resth5117 and will giveh5414 you thish2088 landh776.'

14

"Your wivesh802, your littleh2945 onesh2945, and your cattleh4735 shall remainh3427 in the landh776 whichh834 Mosesh4872 gaveh5414 you beyondh5676 the Jordanh3383, but you shall crossh5674a beforeh6440 your brothersh251 in battleh2571 arrayh2571, allh3605 your valianth2428 warriorsh1368, and shall helph5826 them,

15

untilh5704 the LORDh3068 givesh5117 your brothersh251 resth5117, as He gives you, and they alsoh1571 possessh3423 the landh776 whichh834 the LORDh3068 your Godh430 is givingh5414 them.  aThen you shall returnh7725 to  1your ownh3425 landh776, and possessh3423  2that whichh834 Mosesh4872  bthe servanth5650 of the LORDh3068 gaveh5414 you beyondh5676 the Jordanh3383 toward the sunriseh4217h8121."

16

They answeredh6030a Joshuah3091, sayingh559, "Allh3605 that you have commandedh6680 us we will doh6213a, and whereverh413h3605h834 you sendh7971 us we will goh1980.

17

"Justh3605h834 as we obeyedh8085 Mosesh4872 in allh3605 thingsh3605, soh3651 we will obeyh8085 you; onlyh7534  amay the LORDh3068 your Godh430 be with you as He was with Mosesh4872.

18

"Anyoneh3605h376 whoh834 rebelsh4784 againsth854 your  1commandh6310 and does not obeyh8085 your wordsh1697 in allh3605 that you commandh6680 him, shall be puth4191 to deathh4191; onlyh7534 be strongh2388 and courageoush553."
