After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD ,
the LORD said to Joshua the son of Nun ,
Moses '
minister ,
* "
Moses my servant is dead ;
now therefore arise ,
go over this Jordan ,
you and all this people ,
into the land which I am giving to them ,
to the people of Israel .
*
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 this Lebanon as far as the great river ,
the river Euphra '
tes ,
all the land of the Hittites to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your territory .
*
No man shall 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 or forsake you .
*
Be strong and of good courage ;
for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them .
*
Only be strong and very courageous ,
being careful to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded you ;
turn not from it to the right hand or to the left ,
that you may have good success wherever you go .
*
This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth ,
but you shall meditate on it day and night ,
that you may be careful 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 .
*
Have I not commanded you ?
Be strong and of good courage ;
be not frightened ,
neither be dismayed ;
for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go ."

Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people ,
