2MosesH4872 my servantH5650 is deadH4191; now therefore ariseH6965, go overH5674 this JordanH3383, thou, and all this peopleH5971, unto the landH776 which I do giveH5414 to them, even to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 3Every placeH4725 that the soleH3709 of your footH7272 shall tread uponH1869, that have I givenH5414 unto you, as I saidH1696 unto MosesH4872. 4From the wildernessH4057 and this LebanonH3844 even unto the greatH1419 riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578, all the landH776 of the HittitesH2850, and unto the greatH1419 seaH3220 toward the going downH3996 of the sunH8121, shall be your coastH1366. 5There shall not any manH376 be able to standH3320 beforeH6440 thee all the daysH3117 of thy lifeH2416: as I was with MosesH4872, so I will be with thee: I will not failH7503 thee, nor forsakeH5800 thee. 6Be strongH2388 and of a good courageH553: for unto this peopleH5971 shalt thou divide for an inheritanceH5157 the landH776, which I swareH7650 unto their fathersH1 to giveH5414 them.1 7Only be thou strongH2388 and veryH3966 courageousH553, that thou mayest observeH8104 to doH6213 according to all the lawH8451, which MosesH4872 my servantH5650 commandedH6680 thee: turnH5493 not from it to the right handH3225 or to the leftH8040, that thou mayest prosperH7919 whithersoever thou goestH3212.2 8This bookH5612 of the lawH8451 shall not departH4185 out of thy mouthH6310; but thou shalt meditateH1897 therein dayH3119 and nightH3915, that thou mayest observeH8104 to doH6213 according to all that is writtenH3789 therein: for then thou shalt makeH6743 thy wayH1870 prosperousH6743, and then thou shalt have good successH7919.3 9Have not I commandedH6680 thee? Be strongH2388 and of a good courageH553; be not afraidH6206, neither be thou dismayedH2865: for YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 is with thee whithersoever thou goestH3212.
10Then JoshuaH3091 commandedH6680 the officersH7860 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, 11PassH5674 throughH7130 the campH4264, and commandH6680 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, PrepareH3559 you victualsH6720; for within threeH7969 daysH3117 ye shall pass overH5674 this JordanH3383, to go inH935 to possessH3423 the landH776, which YhwhH3068 your GodH430 givethH5414 you to possessH3423 it.
12And to the ReubenitesH7206, and to the GaditesH1425, and to halfH2677 the tribeH7626 of ManassehH4519, spakeH559 JoshuaH3091, sayingH559, 13RememberH2142 the wordH1697 which MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of YhwhH3068 commandedH6680 you, sayingH559, YhwhH3068 your GodH430 hath given you restH5117, and hath givenH5414 you this landH776. 14Your wivesH802, your little onesH2945, and your cattleH4735, shall remainH3427 in the landH776 which MosesH4872 gaveH5414 you on this sideH5676 JordanH3383; but ye shall passH5674 beforeH6440 your brethrenH251 armedH2571, all the mightyH1368 men of valourH2428, and helpH5826 them;4
