Only be very firm and bold, taking heed to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded thee, do not turn aside therefrom, to the right hand or to the left, - that thou mayest prosper, whithersoever thou goest.

And it shall be, whosoever shall go forth out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood, shall be on his own head and, we, shall be free, - but, whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood, shall be on our heads, if a, hand, be upon him.

and they said unto Joshua, Yahweh, hath delivered, into our hand all the land, - moreover also all the inhabitants of the land, have melted away, from before us.

that all the peoples of the earth might know the hand of Yahweh, that, firm, it is; that they might revere Yahweh your God, all the days.

And it came to pass, while Joshua was at Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes, and looked, and lo! a man standing over against him, with his sword drawn, in his hand, - so Joshua went unto him, and said to him, For us, art thou, or for our adversaries?

Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, See, I have delivered, into thy hand, Jericho and her king, - the mighty men of valour.

And Joshua said - Alas! My Lord Yahweh! Wherefore hast thou, brought, this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? Would then we had been content to dwell on the other side of the Jordan!

Then said Yahweh unto Joshua - Do not fear nor be dismayed, take with thee all the army, and arise, go up to Ai, - see! I have given into thy hand, the king of Ai and his people, and his city, and his land;

Then, ye, shall rise up out of the ambush, and take possession of the city, - and Yahweh your God will deliver it into your hand.

Then said Yahweh unto Joshua - Stretch out with the javelin which is in thy hand, towards Ai, for, into thy hand, will I deliver it. So Joshua stretched out with the javelin which was in his hand, towards the city.

And, the ambush, rose up quickly, out of their place, and ran, when he stretched out his hand, and entered the city, and captured it, - and hasted, and set the city on fire.

Now, Joshua, drew not back his hand which he had stretched out with the javelin, - until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.

So our elders and all the inhabitants of our land spake unto us, saying - Take ye, in your hand, provision for the journey, and go your way to meet them, - then shall ye say unto them, Your servants, we are. Now, therefore, solemnise with us a covenant.

Now, therefore, here we are, in thy hand, - as may be good and right in thine eyes, to do unto us, do.

And he did to them so, - and rescued them out of the hand of the sons of Israel, and they slew them not.

So the men of Gibeon sent unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, saying, Do not withhold thy hand from thy servants, - Come up unto us quickly, and save us, and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill-country, are gathered together against us.

And Yahweh said unto Joshua: Do not fear because of them, for, into thy hand, have I delivered them, - not a man of them shall stand before thee.

but do not, ye, stay, chase after your enemies, so shall ye attack them in the rear, - do not suffer them to enter into their cities, for Yahweh your God hath delivered them into your hand.

and Yahweh delivered, it also, into the hand of Israel, with the king thereof, and he smote it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls that were therein, he left therein no survivor, - but did unto the king thereof, as he had done unto the king of Jericho.

and Yahweh delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, and he captured it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls that were therein, - according to all that he had done unto Libnah.

And Yahweh delivered them up into the hand of Israel, and they smote them, and chased them as far as great Zidon, and as far as Misrephoth-maim, and as far as the valley of Mizpeh, eastward, - yea they smote them until they left them not a survivor.

By lot, was their inheritance divided, - as Yahweh commanded by the hand of Moses, unto the nine tribes and unto the half tribe.

So then the boundary of Manasseh was from Asher, Michmethath, which faceth Shechem, - and the boundary goeth along unto the right hand, unto the inhabitants of En-tappuah.

Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, - Set out for you the cities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you, by the hand of Moses:

And, when the blood-redeemer pursueth after him, then shall they not deliver up the manslayer, into his hand, - because, unwittingly, it was that he slew his neighbour, and had not been, cherishing hatred, towards him, aforetime;

These, were the cities appointed for all the sons of Israel, and for the sojourner who sojourneth in their midst, that whosoever should slay a person by mistake, might flee thither, - and not die by the hand of the blood-redeemer, until he should stand before the assembly.

and spake unto them in Shiloh in the land of Canaan, saying: Yahweh himself, commanded, by the hand of Moses, that there should be given unto us cities to dwell in, - with their pasture-lands for our cattle.

So the sons of Israel gave unto the Levites these cities, with their pasture lands, - as Yahweh commanded, by the hand of Moses, by lot.

And Yahweh gave them rest round about, according to all that he had sworn unto their fathers, - and there stood not a man before them, of all their enemies; all their enemies, did Yahweh deliver into their hand.

So the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh. returned and departed from the sons of Israel, from Shiloh, which was in the land of Canaan, - to go unto the land of Gilead, unto the land of their possession, wherein they had received their possessions, at the bidding of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.

And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest said unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the sons of Manasseh - To-day, we know that, in our midst, is Yahweh, in that ye have not committed, against Yahweh, this act of treachery, - now, have ye rescued the sons of Israel out of the hand of Yahweh.

Therefore must ye be very firm to observe and to do all that is written in the scroll of the law of Moses, - so as not to turn aside therefrom, to the right hand or to the left;

then I brought you into the land of the Amorites, who were dwelling over the Jordan, and they fought with you, - then delivered I them into your hand, and ye took possession of their land, so I destroyed them from before you.

but I was not willing to hearken unto Balaam, - so, he kept on blessing, you, and I rescued you out of his hand.

Then passed ye over the Jordan, and came in unto Jericho, and, when they would have made war with you - even the lords of Jericho - the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Girgashite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, then delivered I them into your hand.
