Joshua Chapter 1

1NowH1961 it cameH1961 to passH1961 afterH310 the deathH4194 of MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068, that the LORDH3068 spake unto JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, Moses’H4872 ministerH8334, sayingH559, 2MosesH4872 my servantH5650 is deadH4191; nowH6258 therefore ariseH6965, goH6965 over this JordanH3383, thou, and allH3605 this peopleH5971, unto the landH776 whichH834 I doH3605 giveH5414 to them, evenH853 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 3EveryH3605 placeH4725 that the soleH3709 of your footH7272 shall treadH1869 uponH413, to youH834 have I givenH5414 it, as I spake unto MosesH4872. 4From the wildernessH4057, and this LebanonH3844, evenH5704 unto the greatH1419 riverH5104, the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578, allH3605 the landH776 of the HittitesH2850, and unto the greatH1419 seaH3220 towardH5704 the going down of the sunH8121, shall be your borderH1366. 5There shall notH3808 anyH3605 manH376 be able to standH3320 beforeH6440 thee allH3605 the daysH3117 of thy lifeH3117: as I was with MosesH4872, soH1961 I will be with thee: I will notH3808 failH7503 thee norH3808 forsakeH5800 thee. 6Be strongH2388 and of a good courageH2388: for thou shalt causeH5414 this peopleH5971 to inheritH5157 the landH776 whichH834 I sware unto their fathersH1 to giveH5414 them. 7OnlyH7535 be strongH2388 and veryH3966 courageousH553, to observeH8104 to doH6213 accordingH4480 to allH3605 the lawH8451, whichH834 MosesH4872 my servantH5650 commandedH6680 thee: turnH5493 notH408 from it to the rightH3225 handH3225 or to the leftH8040, that thou mayest have good success whithersoever thou goest. 8This bookH5612 of the lawH8451 shall notH3808 departH4185 outH3605 of thy mouthH6310, but thou shalt meditateH1897 therein dayH3119 and nightH3915, that thou mayest observeH8104 to doH6213 accordingH6310 to allH3605 that is writtenH3789 therein: for then thou shalt makeH6213 thy wayH1870 prosperousH6743, and then thou shalt have good successH6743. 9Have notH3808 I commandedH6680 thee? Be strongH2388 and of a good courageH2388; be notH3808 affrighted, neitherH3808 be thou dismayedH2865: for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is with thee whithersoever thou goest. 10Then JoshuaH3091 commandedH6680 the officersH7860 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, 11PassH5674 throughH5674 the midstH7130 of the campH4264, and commandH6680 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, PrepareH3559 youH859 victuals; for withinH7130 threeH7969 daysH3117 ye are to passH5674 over this JordanH3383, to goH935 in to possessH3423 the landH776, whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 giveth youH859 to possessH3423 it. 12And to the ReubenitesH7206, and to the GaditesH1425, and to the halfH2677 tribeH7626 of ManassehH4519, spake JoshuaH3091, sayingH559, 13RememberH2142 the wordH1697 whichH834 MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 youH834, sayingH559, The LORDH3068 your GodH430 giveth youH834 restH5117, and will giveH5414 youH834 this landH776. 14Your wivesH802, your littleH2945 onesH2945, and your cattleH4735, shall abideH3427 in the landH776 whichH834 MosesH4872 gaveH5414 youH859 beyondH5676 JordanH3383; but ye shall passH5674 over beforeH6440 your brethrenH251 armed, allH3605 the mightyH1368 menH1368 of valour, and shall helpH5826 them; 15untilH5704 the LORDH3068 have givenH5414 your brethrenH251 restH5117, as he hath givenH5414 youH834, and they also have possessedH3423 the landH776 whichH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 giveth them: then ye shall returnH7725 unto the landH776 of your possessionH3423, and possessH3423 it, whichH834 MosesH4872 the servantH5650 of the LORDH3068 gaveH5414 youH834 beyondH5676 JordanH3383 towardH5704 the sunrisingH4217. 16And they answeredH559 JoshuaH3091, sayingH559, AllH3605 that thou hast commandedH6680 usH413 weH834 will doH6213, and whithersoever thou sendest usH413 weH834 will goH7971. 17AccordingH413 as weH834 hearkened unto MosesH4872 in allH3605 things, soH3651 will weH834 hearken unto thee: onlyH7535 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 be with thee, as he was with MosesH4872. 18Whosoever he be that shall rebelH4784 againstH376 thy commandmentH6310, and shall notH3808 hearken unto thy wordsH1697 in allH3605 that thou commandest him, he shall be putH4191 to deathH4191: onlyH7535 be strongH2388 and of a good courageH2388.
