MSG(1-9)After the death of Moses the servant of God, God spoke to Joshua, Moses’ assistant:
  “Moses my servant is dead. Get going. Cross this Jordan River, you and all the people. Cross to the country I’m giving to the People of Israel. I’m giving you every square inch of the land you set your foot on—just as I promised Moses. From the wilderness and this Lebanon east to the Great River, the Euphrates River—all the Hittite country—and then west to the Great Sea. It’s all yours. All your life, no one will be able to hold out against you. In the same way I was with Moses, I’ll be with you. I won’t give up on you; I won’t leave you. Strength! Courage! You are going to lead this people to inherit the land that I promised to give their ancestors. Give it everything you have, heart and soul. Make sure you carry out The Revelation that Moses commanded you, every bit of it. Don’t get off track, either left or right, so as to make sure you get to where you’re going. And don’t for a minute let this Book of The Revelation be out of mind. Ponder and meditate on it day and night, making sure you practice everything written in it. Then you’ll get where you’re going; then you’ll succeed. Haven’t I commanded you? Strength! Courage! Don’t be timid; don’t get discouraged. God, your God, is with you every step you take.”

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:1-9 God confirmed Joshua as Israel’s leader and Moses’ successor. God made Abraham a specific promise to bring his descendants into possession of the land of Canaan (Gen 12:7; 15:7; 17:8). This promise was repeated to Moses (Exod 3:6-8; 13:3-5; Deut 1:6-8; 6:10-19). Now God was ready to fulfill his promise using Joshua. Joshua led Israel’s first generation of settlers into the Promised Land, and his victories against two Canaanite coalitions—first in the south and then in the north—opened the hill country for settlement by the Israelites.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

חֲזַ֨ק וֶֽ⁠אֱמַ֜ץ מְאֹ֗ד

strong and,courageous very

These are the exact same phrases that occurred in the previous verse except here the word very is added for increased emphasis. See how you translated the words “Be strong and be courageous” in the previous verse.

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

חֲזַ֨ק וֶֽ⁠אֱמַ֜ץ מְאֹ֗ד לִ⁠שְׁמֹ֤ר לַ⁠עֲשׂוֹת֙

strong and,courageous very to=guard/protect for=doing

Here, the first use of the word to marks be strong and be very courageous as the goal or purpose of the command be strong and be very courageous. Yahweh wanted Joshua to be strong and be very courageous so that he would obey the law of Moses. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose. Alternate translation: “be strong and be very courageous, in order that you are careful to do” or “be strong and be very courageous, so that you can be careful to do”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / you

צִוְּ⁠ךָ֙…תַּשְׂכִּ֔יל…תֵּלֵֽךְ…מִ⁠פִּ֗י⁠ךָ וְ⁠הָגִ֤יתָ…תִּשְׁמֹ֣ר…תַּצְלִ֥יחַ אֶת־דְּרָכֶ֖⁠ךָ…תַּשְׂכִּֽיל…צִוִּיתִ֨י⁠ךָ֙…עִמְּ⁠ךָ֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֔י⁠ךָ בְּ⁠כֹ֖ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר תֵּלֵֽךְ

(Some words not found in UHB: only strong and,courageous very to=guard/protect for=doing according_to,all the,law which/who commanded,you Mosheh servant,my not turn from=him/it right and,left so_that successful in/on/at/with,every which/who go )

Every use of the words your and you in these three verses are singular and refer to Joshua.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

אַל־תָּס֥וּר מִמֶּ֖⁠נּוּ

not turn from=him/it

Here, to turn aside from means “stop obeying.” If it would be helpful to your readers, you could indicate that explicitly. Alternate translation: “Do not stop obeying it”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

יָמִ֣ין וּ⁠שְׂמֹ֑אול

right and,left

The phrase to the right or to the left is an idiom that means that Joshua must not stop obeying any part of the law of Moses. If your readers would not understand this, you could use an equivalent idiom or use plain language. Alternate translation: “follow it exactly” or “obey all of the law”

תַּשְׂכִּ֔יל

successful

Alternate translation: “achieve your goal” or “reach your goal”
