الرب يوصي يشوع

1 بَعْدَ مَوْتِ مُوسَى عَبْدِ الرَّبِّ، قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِيَشُوعَ بْنِ نُونٍ، خَادِمِ مُوسَى: 2 «وَالآنَ وَقَدْ مَاتَ مُوسَى عَبْدِي، قُمْ وَاعْبُرْ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ هَذَا، أَنْتَ وَهَذَا الشَّعْبُ كُلُّهُ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أَنَا وَاهِبُهَا لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. 3 كُلُّ مَوْضِعٍ تَطَؤُهُ بُطُونُ أَقْدَامِكُمْ أَهَبُهُ لَكُمْ، كَمَا وَعَدْتُ مُوسَى، 4 فَتَمْتَدُّ حُدُودُكُمْ مِنْ صَحْرَاءِ النَّقَبِ فِي الْجَنُوبِ إِلَى جِبَالِ لُبْنَانَ فِي الشِّمَالِ، وَمِنَ الْبَحْرِ الْمُتَوَسِّطِ فِي الْغَرْبِ إِلَى نَهْرِ الْفُرَاتِ فِي الشَّرْقِ، بِمَا فِي ذَلِكَ بِلادُ الْحِثِّيِّينَ. 5 وَلَنْ يَقْدِرَ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يُقَاوِمَكَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِكَ، لأَنِّي سَأَكُونُ مَعَكَ كَمَا كُنْتُ مَعَ مُوسَى. لَنْ أُهْمِلَكَ وَلَنْ أَتْرُكَكَ. 6 تَقَوَّ وَتَشَجَّعْ، لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي سَتُوَزِّعُ عَلَى هَذَا الشَّعْبِ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي حَلَفْتُ لِآبَائِهِمْ أَنْ أَهَبَهَا لَهُمْ. 7 كُنْ شَدِيدَ الْبَأْسِ ثَابِتَ الْقَلْبِ، وَلْتُطِعْ كُلَّ حَرْفٍ مِنْ حُرُوفِ الشَّرِيعَةِ الَّتِي أَمَرَكَ بِها مُوسَى عَبْدِي. لَا تَحِدْ عَنْهَا يَمِيناً أَوْ شِمَالاً، لِكَيْ تُفْلِحَ حَيْثُمَا تَتَوَجَّهُ. 8 وَاظِبْ عَلَى تَرْدِيدِ كَلِمَاتِ هَذِهِ الشَّرِيعَةِ، وَتَأَمَّلْ فِيهَا لَيْلَ نَهَارَ لِتُمَارِسَهَا بِحِرْصٍ بِمُوْجِبِ مَا وَرَدَ فِيهَا فَيُحَالِفَكَ النَّجَاحُ وَالتَّوْفِيقُ. 9 أَلَمْ آمُرْكَ؟ إِذَنْ تَقَوَّ وَتَشَجَّعْ، لَا تَرْهَبْ ولا تَجْزَعْ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ مَعَكَ حَيْثُمَا تَتَوَجَّهُ». 10 فَأَمَرَ يَشُوعُ عُرَفَاءَ الشَّعْبِ أَنْ 11 يَجُولُوا فِي وَسَطِ الْمُخَيَّمِ وَيَأْمُرُوا الشَّعْبَ أَنْ يُجَهِّزُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ طَعَاماً لأَنَّهُمْ بَعْدَ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَعْبُرُونَ نَهْرَ الأُرْدُنِّ لِيَدْخُلُوا لاِمْتِلاكِ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي يَهَبُهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُهُمْ لَهُمْ لِيَرِثُوهَا. 12 ثُمَّ قَالَ يَشُوعُ لِلرَّأُوبَيْنِيِّينَ وَالْجَادِيِّينَ وَنِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى: 13 «اُذْكُرُوا مَا أَوْصَاكُمْ بِهِ مُوسَى عَبْدُ الرَّبِّ قَائِلاً: لَقَدْ أَرَاحَكُمُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ وَأَعْطَاكُمْ هَذِهِ الأَرْضَ. 14 فَلْتَمْكُثْ نِسَاؤُكُمْ وَأَطْفَالُكُمْ وَمَوَاشِيكُمْ فِي الأَرْضِ الَّتِي قَسَمَهَا لَكُمْ مُوسَى وَرَاءَ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ، أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ، كُلُّ أَبْطَالِ الْحَرْبِ الأَقْوِيَاءِ، فَتَعْبُرُونَ مُدَجَّجِينَ بِالسِّلاحِ أَمَامَ إِخْوَتِكُمْ، لِتُعِينُوهُمْ، 15 حَتَّى يُرِيحَ الرَّبُّ إِخْوَتَكُمْ مِثْلَكُمْ وَيَمْتَلِكُوا هُمْ أَيْضاً الأَرْضَ الَّتِي يَهَبُهَا الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ لَهُمْ ثُمَّ تَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى أَرْضِ مِيرَاثِكُمُ الَّتِي قَسَمَهَا لَكُمْ مُوسَى عَبْدُ الرَّبِّ فِي مَا وَرَاءَ نَهْرِ الأُرْدُنِّ شَرْقاً وَتَمْتَلِكُونَهَا». 16 فَأَجَابُوا يَشُوعَ: «كُلُّ مَا أَمَرْتَنَا بِهِ نُنَفِّذُهُ، وَحَيْثُمَا تُرْسِلْنَا نَذْهَبْ. 17 وَكَمَا أَطَعْنَا مُوسَى نُطِيعُكَ، وَلْيَكُنِ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ مَعَكَ كَمَا كَانَ مَعَ مُوسَى. 18 وَكُلُّ مَنْ يَعْصَى أَمْرَكَ وَلا يُطِيعُ كَلامَكَ يَكُونُ الْقَتْلُ جَزَاءَهُ. إِنَّمَا تَقَوَّ وَتَشَجَّعْ».

Joshua installed as leader

1 After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, the Lord said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ assistant: 2 ‘Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the River Jordan into the land I am about to give to them – to the Israelites. 3 I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses. 4 Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates – all the Hittite country – to the Mediterranean Sea in the west. 5 No-one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. 6 Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them. 7 ‘Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.’ 10 So Joshua ordered the officers of the people: 11 ‘Go through the camp and tell the people, “Get your provisions ready. Three days from now you will cross the Jordan here to go in and take possession of the land the Lord your God is giving you for your own.” ’ 12 But to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said, 13 ‘Remember the command that Moses the servant of the Lord gave you after he said, “The Lord your God will give you rest by giving you this land.” 14 Your wives, your children and your livestock may stay in the land that Moses gave you east of the Jordan, but all your fighting men, ready for battle, must cross over ahead of your fellow Israelites. You are to help them 15 until the Lord gives them rest, as he has done for you, and until they too have taken possession of the land that the Lord your God is giving them. After that, you may go back and occupy your own land, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you east of the Jordan towards the sunrise.’ 16 Then they answered Joshua, ‘Whatever you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go. 17 Just as we fully obeyed Moses, so we will obey you. Only may the Lord your God be with you as he was with Moses. 18 Whoever rebels against your word and does not obey it, whatever you may command them, will be put to death. Only be strong and courageous!’
