1After the death of Moses the LORD's servant, the LORD spoke to Joshua son of Nun, Moses's assistant:

1After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses' aide:

2"Moses my servant is dead. Now you and all the people prepare to cross over the Jordan to the land I am giving the Israelites.

2"Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them--to the Israelites.

3I have given you every place where the sole of your foot treads, just as I promised Moses.

3I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses.

4Your territory will be from the wilderness and Lebanon to the great river, the Euphrates River--all the land of the Hittites--and west to the Mediterranean Sea.

4Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates--all the Hittite country--to the Mediterranean Sea in the west.

5No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live. I will be with you, just as I was with Moses. I will not leave you or abandon you.

5No one will 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 never leave you nor forsake you.

6"Be strong and courageous, for you will distribute the land I swore to their fathers to give them as an inheritance.

6Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them.

7Above all, be strong and very courageous to observe carefully the whole instruction my servant Moses commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right or the left, so that you will have success wherever you go.

7"Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.

8This book of instruction must not depart from your mouth; you are to meditate on it day and night so that you may carefully observe everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in whatever you do.

8Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.

9Haven't I commanded you: be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."

9Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."

10Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people:

10So Joshua ordered the officers of the people:

11"Go through the camp and tell the people, 'Get provisions ready for yourselves, for within three days you will be crossing the Jordan to go in and take possession of the land the LORD your God is giving you to inherit.'"

11"Go through the camp and tell the people, 'Get your provisions ready. Three days from now you will cross the Jordan here to go in and take possession of the land the LORD your God is giving you for your own.'"

12Joshua said to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and half the tribe of Manasseh:

12But to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,

13"Remember what Moses the LORD's servant commanded you when he said, 'The LORD your God will give you rest, and he will give you this land.'

13"Remember the command that Moses the servant of the LORD gave you after he said, 'The LORD your God will give you rest by giving you this land.'

14Your wives, dependents, and livestock may remain in the land Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But your best soldiers must cross over in battle formation ahead of your brothers and help them

14Your wives, your children and your livestock may stay in the land that Moses gave you east of the Jordan, but all your fighting men, ready for battle, must cross over ahead of your fellow Israelites. You are to help them

15until the LORD gives your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they too possess the land the LORD your God is giving them. You may then return to the land of your inheritance and take possession of what Moses the LORD's servant gave you on the east side of the Jordan."

15until the LORD gives them rest, as he has done for you, and until they too have taken possession of the land the LORD your God is giving them. After that, you may go back and occupy your own land, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you east of the Jordan toward the sunrise."

16They answered Joshua, "Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go.

16Then they answered Joshua, "Whatever you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

17We will obey you, just as we obeyed Moses in everything. Certainly the LORD your God will be with you, as he was with Moses.

17Just as we fully obeyed Moses, so we will obey you. Only may the LORD your God be with you as he was with Moses.

18Anyone who rebels against your order and does not obey your words in all that you command him, will be put to death. Above all, be strong and courageous!"

18Whoever rebels against your word and does not obey it, whatever you may command them, will be put to death. Only be strong and courageous!"
