Lᵊvân•ōnꞋ & Khit•imꞋ ("Hittites") |
After the death of Mosh•ëhꞋ, Yᵊho•shuꞋa perceived é‑‑ä telling him, 'My worker, Mosh•ëhꞋ, is dead. Now, therefore, you get up and cross NᵊharꞋ ha-Ya•rᵊd•einꞋ; you and the entire am, to hâ-ârꞋëtz, which I, Myself, give to them—to Bᵊn•eiꞋ-Yi•sᵊrâ•eilꞋ.
Every place that the sole of your foot shall walk on, I have given to you, as I told Mosh•ëhꞋ. From the mi•dᵊbârꞋ and this Lᵊvân•ōnꞋ to the great Nᵊhar, Pᵊrat, including all of the land of the Khit•imꞋ to Yâm ha-Gâ•dōlꞋ toward the west; these shall be your border.
No man shall stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Mosh•ëhꞋ, I'll be with you; I'll neither fail nor abandon you. Be strong and bold, for you shall bequeath to this am hâ-ârꞋëtz that I swore to their fathers to give them.
Just be strong and very bold to watchguard and do all My Tor•âhꞋ, which My worker, Mosh•ëhꞋ, commanded you. Don't deviate from it to the right or to the left; so that you are learning in all of your walk. This SeiphꞋër Tor•âhꞋ must not be removed from your mouth. Rather, you must audibilize 1 it day and night so that you watchguard—and do—everything that I have written therein; for then (that's how) your ways shall succeed, and then you shall learn.
Have I not commanded you, 'Be strong!, be bold! and don't crack!' because é‑‑ä your Ël•oh•imꞋ is with you in all of your walk?"
Then Yᵊho•shuꞋa commanded the police-officers of the am saying, "Pass through the midst of the camp and command the am saying, 'Prepare your field provisions because in 3 days you are crossing this Ya•rᵊd•einꞋ to go in and repossess 2 hâ-ârꞋëtz, which é‑‑ä your Ël•oh•imꞋ is allowing you to repossess.
