ULT JOS Chapter 1

1 Now it happened after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, that Yahweh spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, saying, 2 “Moses, my servant, is dead. So now, rise, cross over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land that I am about to give to them, to the sons of Israel. 3 Every place on which the sole of your foot will tread, I give it to you just as I spoke to Moses. 4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon and as far as the great river, the Euphrates River, all the land of the Hittites, and as far as the great sea, the going of the sun, will be your boundary. 5 A man will not station himself against your face all the days of your life. I will be with you just as I was with Moses. I will not abandon you and I will not leave you. 6 Be strong and be courageous, for you yourself will cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give to them. 7 Only be strong and be very courageous, watching to do according to all the law that Moses, my servant, commanded you. Do not turn aside from it right or left, so that you may be wise in every place where you go. 8 This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth and you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you will watch to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your ways prosperous and then you will be wise. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and be courageous! Do not tremble and do not be dismayed. For Yahweh your God is with you in every place where you go.”

10 And Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying, 11 “Pass over within the camp and command the people, saying, ‘Prepare provisions for yourselves because in yet three days you will be about to cross over this Jordan to enter to possess the land that Yahweh your God is about to give to you to possess it.’ ”

12 And to the Reubenite and to the Gadite and to the half of the tribe of Manasseh, Joshua spoke, saying, 13 “Remember the word that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, ‘Yahweh your God is about to give rest to you and he will give to you this land.’ 14 Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock will stay in the land that Moses gave to you on the other side of the Jordan. But you, you shall cross over before the face of your brothers arrayed for battle, all the mighty men of the army, and shall help them 15 until when Yahweh gives rest to your brothers as you, and they, they also, possess the land that Yahweh your God is about to give to them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession and shall possess it, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave to you on the other side of the Jordan, the rising place of the sun.” 16 And they answered Joshua, saying, “All that you have commanded us we will do, and to every place where you send us we will go. 17 As in everything that we listened to Moses so we will listen to you. But Yahweh your God will be with you, just as he was with Moses. 18 Every man who rebels against your mouth and will not hear your words for all that you command him will be put to death. Only be strong and be courageous.”
