Numbers 27:15-23 - Joshua Succeeds Moses
15 And Moses spoke to LORD, saying, 16 Let LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation, 17 who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the congregation of LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
18 And LORD said to Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay thy hand upon him, 19 and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation, and give him a charge in their sight. 20 And thou shall put of thine honor upon him, that all the congregation of the sons of Israel may obey. 21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire for him by the judgment of the Urim before LORD. At his word shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all the sons of Israel with him, even
22 And Moses did as LORD commanded him. And he took Joshua, and set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation. 23 And he laid his hands upon him, and gave him a charge, as LORD spoke by Moses.
