After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord,: the Lord spoke to Joshua son of Nun,; Moses' assistant, saying,
"My servant Moses is dead.
Now arise and cross the Jordan,: you and all this people,; into the land that I am giving to them,; to the Israelites.
Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon: I have given to you,; as I promised to Moses.
From the wilderness and the Lebanon: as far as the great river, the river Euphrates,; all the land of the Hittites,; to the Great Sea in the west; shall be your territory.
No one shall be able to stand against you: all the days of your life.
As I was with Moses,: so I will be with you;; I will not fail you or forsake you.
Be strong and courageous;: for you shall put this people in possession; of the land that I swore to their ancestors; to give them."
