Joshua 1:2-6

2“My servant Moses is dead. Now you and all these people must cross the Jordan River into the land that I am going to give the people of Israel.

3I will give you every place on which you set foot, as I promised Moses.

4Your borders will be the desert ⌞on the south⌟, nearby Lebanon to the Euphrates River (the country of the Hittites) ⌞on the north⌟, and the Mediterranean Sea on the west.

5No one will be able to oppose you successfully as long as you live. I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will never neglect you or abandon you.

6Be strong and courageous, because you will help these people take possession of the land I swore to give their ancestors.
