Dlulisela

Haven’t I commanded you: be strong and courageous?  Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

This book of instruction must not depart from your mouth;  you are to meditate on  it day and night so that you may carefully observe everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in whatever you do.

Above all, be strong and very courageous to observe carefully the whole instruction my servant Moses commanded you.  Do not turn from it to the right or the left, so that you will have success wherever you go.

No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live.  I will be with you, just as I was with Moses. I will not leave you or abandon you.

“Be strong and courageous,  for you will distribute the land I swore to their ancestors to give them as an inheritance.

I have given you every place where the sole of your foot treads,  just as I promised Moses.

“Moses my servant is dead.  Now you and all the people prepare to cross over the Jordan  to the land I am giving the Israelites.

After the death of Moses  the LORD’s servant, the LORD spoke to Joshua son of Nun,  Moses’s assistant

Your territory will be from the wilderness and Lebanon  to the great river, the Euphrates River — all the land of the Hittites   — and west to the Mediterranean Sea.

Anyone who rebels against your order and does not obey your words in all that you command him, will be put to death. Above all, be strong and courageous! ”

“Go through the camp and tell the people, ‘Get provisions ready for yourselves, for within three days you will be crossing the Jordan to go in and take possession of the land the LORD your God is giving you to inherit.’ ”
