Joshua 1:10-18 - Joshua Prepares The People
10 Joshua commanded the officers of the people. He said: 11 Pass through the middle of the camp and command the people, say: Prepare your provisions. In three days you will pass over this Jordan. You will go in to possess the land that Jehovah your God gave you to possess.
12 And to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to half the tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said: 13 Remember the word Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you: 'Jehovah your God has given you rest, and has given you this land.' 14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But you shall pass before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and help them. 15 Your brothers will possess the land Jehovah gave them until Jehovah gives your brothers rest. Then you will return to the land you possess and enjoy it. This is the land Jehovah's servant Moses gave you on this side of Jordan toward the sunrise (to the east).
16 They answered Joshua: All that you command us we will do. Wherever you send us we will go. 17 Just as we listened to Moses in all things, we will listen to you in all things. May Jehovah your God be with you, as he was with Moses. 18 Whoever rebels against your commandment, and does not listen to your words in all that you command him must be put to death. Be strong and of a good courage.
