Yehoshua (Joshua) installed as the new leader

Deu 31:1–8

31Then Mosheh (Moses) also told the Israelis, 2“I’m already a hundred and twenty and no longer able to walk around easily, plus Yahweh has told me that I won’t be able to cross the Yarden (Jordan) river.[ref] 3Your god Yahweh will go ahead of you and destroy those peoples right in front of your eyes, then you’ll be able to take over that land. Yahweh has said that it’s Yehoshua (Joshua) who will lead you in there. 4Then Yahweh will do the same to those peoples as he did to the Amorite kings Sihon and Og, when he destroyed them and their people.[ref] 5Yahweh will enable you to conquer those peoples, but you must do exactly what I’ve instructed you, to them. 6Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid or scared of those people, because it’s your god Yahweh who’ll go with you—he won’t leave you or abandon you.

7Then Mosheh called Yehoshua and told him in front of all Yisrael, “Be strong and courageous, because you’ll go with these people into the land that Yahweh had promised to their ancestors to give to them, and you’ll enable them to take it as their inheritance. 8Yahweh will go ahead of you and he’ll be with you. He won’t fail or abandon you—you mustn’t be afraid or concerned.[ref]

Num 20:12:

12Then Yahweh scolded Mosheh and Aharon, “Because you two publicly demonstrated that you didn’t believe that what I say is absolute truth, therefore you two won’t lead this community into the land that I’ve given them.”

Num 21:21-35:

21Then Yisrael sent messengers to the Amorite King Sihon, 22“Let us pass through your country. We won’t turn off into any field or vineyard. We won’t take water from any well. We’ll stay on the king’s highway until we’ve exited at your northern border.” 23However King Sihon refused them permission, then he took his whole army into the wilderness to meet Yisrael, and they attacked them at Yahats village. 24Nevertheless, Yisrael defeated them in battle and took possession of his land from the Arnon river up as far as Yabok where the Ammonites’ border was well fortified. 25So Yisrael took those Amorite cities including Heshbon and the surrounding villages, and started living in them. 26(Heshbon was where the Amorite King Sihon lived, as he’d previously fought against the former king of Moav and captured all his land down as far as the Arnon river. 27That was why the poets say,

“Come to Heshbon—let it be rebuilt.

≈ Let King Sihon’s city be established

28because fire went out from Heshbon,

≈ flame from Sihon’s city.

It consumed Ar in Moav,

and the citizens on Arnon’s hilltops.[ref]

29Moav, you won’t end well.

≈ Kemosh’s people have perished.

He’s made his sons into fugitives,

≈ and given his daughters over to captivity

by the Amorite King Sihon.

30We’ve overpowered them.

Heshbon has perished as far as Divon

≈ and shattered Nofah as far as Medeva.)

31So the Israelis lived in the Amorite region 32and Mosheh sent some men to spy out Yazer, and the captured its villages and drove the Amorites out from there.

33Then they turned and went up the road towards Bashan, but Bashan’s King Og came out with his army to meet them, and attacked them at Edrei. 34Yahweh said to Mosheh, “Don’t be afraid of him because I’ve given him and all his people and his land to you, and you’ll be able to do to him what you did to the Amorite King Sihon who lived at Heshbon.” 35So they overcame King Og and his sons and all his people until there were no remaining survivors, then they took possession of their land.


21:28-29: Jer 48:45-46.

Josh 1:5:

5No man will be able to challenge your leadership as long as you liveI’ll be with you just as I was with Mosheh—I won’t fail you or abandon you.[ref]

Heb 13:5:

5Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said:[ref]

“I’ll never leave you;

Indeed I’ll never abandon you.”
