'Encourage' in the Bible

Joshua, the son of Nun, {your assistant}, will go there; encourage him because he will cause Israel to inherit it.

Now instruct Joshua and support him and encourage him because he himself will cross [over] before this people and enable them to inherit the land that you will see.'

I could encourage you with my mouth, and the solace of my lips would ease the pain.

They encourage themselves [in the] evil matter. They talk of secretly laying snares. They say, "Who will see them?"
