Joshua 1:10-18

10Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying, 11“Pass through the midst of the camp and command the people, saying, ‘Prepare provisions for yourselves, for within 1three days you are to cross this Jordan, to go in to possess the land which the Lord your God is giving you, to possess it.’”

122To the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua 3said, 13“Remember the word which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, ‘4The Lord your God gives you rest and will give you this land.’ 14Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle shall remain in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan, but you shall cross before your brothers in battle array, all your valiant warriors, and shall help them, 15until the Lord gives your brothers rest, as He gives you, and they also possess the land which the Lord your God is giving them. 5Then you shall return to 6your own land, and possess 7that which Moses 8the servant of the Lord gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.”

16They answered Joshua, saying, “All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go. 17Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you; only 9may the Lord your God be with you as He was with Moses. 18Anyone who rebels against your 10command and does not obey your words in all that you command him, shall be put to death; only be strong and courageous.”
