2Moses my servant is dead; now then arise, go over Jordan, thou and all this people, into the land, which I give them.

3Every spot on which ye shall tread I will give it you, as I said to Moses.

— Joshua 1:4 —

5Not a man shall stand against you all the days of thy life; and as I was with Moses, so will I also be with thee, and I will not fail thee, or neglect thee.
