The terms commandment and instruction mean similar things. Joshua is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “everything that Yahweh has commanded”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וְלָלֶ֧כֶת בְּכָל דְּרָכָ֛יו בְּכָל
and,to,walk in=all ways,his (Some words not found in UHB: only careful very for=doing DOM the,commandment and=DOM the,law which/who commanded DOM,you_all Mosheh servant YHWH to,love DOM YHWH God,your_all's and,to,walk in=all ways,his and,to,keep commandments,his and,to,hold_fast in=him/it and,to,serve,him in=all heart,your_all's and=on/over=all soul,your_all's )
Joshua is speaking as if following Yahweh’s commands were like walking on a path. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and to live as he has commanded”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
וּלְדָבְקָה ב֑וֹ
and,to,hold_fast in=him/it
Joshua is speaking as if the Israelites could physically hold onto Yahweh. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “and to remain completely loyal to him”

בְּכָל בְּכָל לְבַבְכֶ֖ם
in=all in=all (Some words not found in UHB: only careful very for=doing DOM the,commandment and=DOM the,law which/who commanded DOM,you_all Mosheh servant YHWH to,love DOM YHWH God,your_all's and,to,walk in=all ways,his and,to,keep commandments,his and,to,hold_fast in=him/it and,to,serve,him in=all heart,your_all's and=on/over=all soul,your_all's )
Joshua is using the term heart figuratively to mean thoughts and feelings. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “with all of your thoughts and feelings”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וּבְכָל נַפְשְׁכֶֽם
and=on/over=all soul,your_all's
Joshua is using the word soul to refer implicitly to a person’s deepest commitments. You could indicate this explicitly in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “and in everything you commit yourself to do”

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
