(Deuteronomy 11:8–17)
1
Now it came about after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, that Yahweh spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ chief assistant, saying,
2
“Moses, my servant, is dead. Now therefore, arise, cross over this Jordan, you and all this people, into the land that I am giving to them-to the people of Israel.
3
I have given you every place where the sole of your foot will walk. I have given it to you, just as I promised to Moses.
4
From the wilderness and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea, where the sun goes down, will be your land.
5
No one will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will not abandon you or leave you.
6
Be strong and courageous. You will cause this people to inherit the land that I promised their ancestors I would give to them.
7
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may be successful wherever you go.
8
You will always speak about this book of the law. You will meditate on it day and night so that you can obey all that is written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid. Do not be discouraged. Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go.”

Joshua Takes Charge

10
Then Joshua commanded the leaders of the people,
11
“Go through the camp and command the people, ‘Prepare provisions for yourselves. In three days you will cross over this Jordan and go in and possess the land that Yahweh your God is giving you to possess.’”
12
To the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,
13
“Call to mind the word that Moses the servant of Yahweh, commanded you when he said, ‘Yahweh your God is giving you rest, and he is giving you this land.’
14
Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock will stay in the land that Moses gave you beyond the Jordan. But your fighting men will go over with your brothers and help them,
15
until Yahweh has given your brothers rest just as he has given it to you. Then they also will take possession of the land Yahweh your God gives them. Then you will return to your own land and possess it, the land that Moses the servant of Yahweh gave you beyond the Jordan, where the sun rises.”
16
Then they answered Joshua, saying, “All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
17
We will obey you just as we obeyed Moses. Only may Yahweh your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
18
Whoever rebels against your commands and disobeys your words will be put to death. Only be strong and courageous.”
(Deuteronomy 11:8–17)
1
Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD,(a) the LORD spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Mosesservant, saying,
2
Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go across this Jordan, you and all these people, to the land which I am giving to them, even to the children of Israel.
3
I have given you every place that the sole of your foot will tread on, as I told Moses.
4
From the wilderness and this Lebanon even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.
5
No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.
6
Be strong and courageous; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
7
Only be strong and very courageous. Be careful to observe to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded you. Don’t turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.
8
This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
9
Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for the LORD your God (b) is with you wherever you go.”

Joshua Takes Charge

10
Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
11
Pass through the middle of the camp, and command the people, saying, ‘Prepare food; for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess.’”
12
Joshua spoke to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, saying,
13
Remember the word which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, saying, ‘The LORD your God gives you rest, and will give you this land.
14
Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock shall live in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but you shall pass over before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and shall help them
15
until the LORD has given your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they have also possessed the land which the LORD your God gives them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession and possess it, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.’”
16
They answered Joshua, saying, “All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
17
Just as we listened to Moses in all things, so will we listen to you. Only may the LORD your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
18
Whoever rebels against your commandment, and doesn’t listen to your words in all that you command him shall himself be put to death. Only be strong and courageous.”
