Now afterH310 the deathH4194 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 it cameH1961 to pass, that the LORDH3068 spokeH559 to JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of Nun,H5126 Moses'H4872 minister,H8334 saying,H559
2
MosesH4872 my servantH5650 is dead;H4191 nowH6258 therefore arise,H6965 goH5674 overH5674 this Jordan,H3383 you, and allH3605 thisH2088 people,H5971 to the landH776 whichH834 I do giveH5414 to them, even to the childrenH1121 of Israel.H3478
3
EveryH3605 placeH4725 that the soleH3709 of your footH7272 shall treadH1869 on, that have I givenH5414 to you, as I saidH1696 to Moses.H4872
4
From the wildernessH4057 and thisH2088 LebanonH3844 even to the greatH1419 river,H5104 the riverH5104 Euphrates,H6578 allH3605 the landH776 of the Hittites,H2850 and to the greatH1419 seaH3220 toward the goingH3996 downH3996 of the sun,H8121 shall be your coast.H1366
5
There shall not any manH376 be ableH3320 to standH3320 beforeH6440 you allH3605 the daysH3117 of your life:H2416 as I was with Moses,H4872 so I will be with you: I will not failH7503 you, norH3808 forsakeH5800 you.
6
Be strongH2388 and of a good courage:H553 for to thisH2088 peopleH5971 shall you divide for an inheritanceH5157 the land,H776 whichH834 I sworeH7650 to their fathersH1 to giveH5414 them.
7
OnlyH7535 be you strongH2388 and veryH3966 courageous,H553 that you may observeH8104 to doH6213 according to allH3605 the law,H8451 whichH834 MosesH4872 my servantH5650 commandedH6680 you: turnH5493 not from it to the rightH3225 handH3225 or to the left,H8040 that you may prosperH7919 whereverH3605 H834 you go.H3212
8
ThisH2088 bookH5612 of the lawH8451 shall not departH4185 out of your mouth;H6310 but you shall meditateH1897 therein dayH3119 and night,H3915 that you may observeH8104 to doH6213 according to allH3605 that is writtenH3789 therein: for thenH227 you shall make your wayH1870 prosperous,H6743 and thenH227 you shall have good success.H7919
9
Have not I commandedH6680 you? Be strongH2388 and of a good courage;H553 be not afraid,H6206 neitherH408 be you dismayed:H2865 for the LORDH3068 your GodH430 is with you whereverH3605 H834 you go.H3212
10
Then JoshuaH3091 commandedH6680 the officersH7860 of the people,H5971 saying,H559
11
PassH5674 throughH7130 the host,H4264 and commandH6680 the people,H5971 saying,H559 PrepareH3559 you victuals;H6720 for withinH5750 threeH7969 daysH3117 you shall passH5674 overH5674 thisH2088 Jordan,H3383 to goH935 in to possessH3423 the land,H776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 givesH5414 you to possessH3423 it.
12
And to the Reubenites,H7206 and to the Gadites,H1425 and to halfH2677 the tribeH7626 of Manasseh,H4519 spokeH559 Joshua,H3091 saying,H559
13
RememberH2142 the wordH1697 whichH834 MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 you, saying,H559 The LORDH3068 your GodH430 has given you rest,H5117 and has givenH5414 you thisH2063 land.H776
14
Your wives,H802 your littleH2945 ones, and your cattle,H4735 shall remainH3427 in the landH776 whichH834 MosesH4872 gaveH5414 you on this sideH5676 Jordan;H3383 but you shall passH5674 beforeH6440 your brothersH251 armed,H2571 allH3605 the mightyH1368 men of valor,H2428 and helpH5826 them;
15
UntilH5704 the LORDH3068 have given your brothersH251 rest,H5117 as he has given you, and they alsoH1571 have possessedH3423 the landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 givesH5414 them: then you shall returnH7725 to the landH776 of your possession,H3425 and enjoyH3423 it, whichH834 MosesH4872 the LORD'sH3068 servantH5650 gaveH5414 you on this sideH5676 JordanH3383 toward the sun rise.H4217 H8121
16
And they answeredH6030 Joshua,H3091 saying,H559 AllH3605 that you commandH6680 us we will do,H6213 and whereverH413 you sendH7971 us, we will go.H3212
17
According as we listenedH8085 to MosesH4872 in allH3605 things, soH3651 will we listenH8085 to you: onlyH7535 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 be with you, as he was with Moses.H4872
18
WhoeverH376 H834 he be that does rebelH4784 against your commandment,H6310 and will not listenH8085 to your wordsH1697 in allH3605 that you commandH6680 him, he shall be put to death:H4191 onlyH7535 be strongH2388 and of a good courage.H553
