However, Nun's son Joshua, your assistant, will go there. Encourage him, for he will cause Israel to take possession of it.

Then the LORD charged Nun's son Joshua, "Be strong and courageous, because you'll bring the Israelis to the land that I promised to them by an oath. I'll be with you."

So Moses and Nun's son Joshua came and recited all the words of this song while the people were assembled.

Now Nun's son Joshua was full of the spirit of wisdom, because Moses had placed his hands on him, so Israelis listened to him and did what the LORD had commanded Moses.
